CNN ^ | June 5, 2009

The case has attracted high-level attention, with President Obama saying Thursday in a written statement that he was "deeply saddened" by the shootings.

This was not previously posted under the actual title, if at all. First I'd read of Obama having any response; I would have expected "outrage" from any other Commander-in-Chief, except maybe one or two. It looks like 6 hours to work up the response over Tiller and about three days to overcome the ennui over the death of a soldier.

He is “deeply saddened”, not because our soldiers death bothers him, but because he does not want to show the world he is a closed Muzzie (and a Commie) bent on destroying this Nation & Israel.

Traitor!

With thie statement alluded to by CNN coming on Thursday, I guess he had to get the suck-up to Moslems speech out of the way first.

So they claim the FBI tortured him in jail in Yemen, thus turning him into a murdering jihadist... so I guess the lesson is to never jail a Muslim for anything, or face jihad.

although I posted it , I don’t claim to have read it real closely. Any explanation how this poor naif, with his previous weapons charges, got to Yemen on a Somali passport? I didn’t see it.

“Deeply saddened” as opposed to “We will not tolerate terrorism”.

No, I don’t feel safe at all people.

I thought he was ‘working alone’. Maybe he brainwashed himself?

Obama’s pals, Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, shot up and bombed military facilities and police stations, yet he launched his political career from their home. Spoke at conferences with them. Sat on a board with Ayers for several years (Woods Fund). Worked closely with Ayers on the Annenberg Challenge in Chicago. Wrote a blurb for Ayers’ book, etc, etc.

BOTH OBAMA AND OSAMA HAVE
FRIENDS WHO BOMBED THE PENTAGON

_________________________________________________________

From HumanEvents.com, April 29, 2008:
"By all accounts, he [Obama friend and associate, Bill Ayers] was a ferocious, violent, revolutionary Marxist in his halcyon days as a Weatherman leader. He and his Weatherman bombers were enamored of Ho Chi Minh, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Mao Tse-tung -- indeed, all the murderous heroes on the Left. Referring to the Weatherman members in August 1969, he said (according to the FBI): 'We’re revolutionary Communists.'

He got off on the group’s multiple explosions, too, and discusses them rather lovingly in his memoir.

Ideal Bombing Weather:
'Everything was absolutely ideal on the day I bombed the Pentagon,' he writes (although he concedes it was really a group effort). 'The sky was blue. The birds were singing. And the bastards were finally going to get what was coming to them.' (p. 256 in the 2003 edition.)

BOTH OBAMA AND OSAMA HAVE
FRIENDS WHO WANTED TO BOMB FORT DIX

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
March 6, 1970: "three members of the Weather Underground accidentally killed themselves in a Manhattan townhouse while attempting to build a powerful bomb they had intended to plant at a social dance in Fort Dix, New Jersey -- an event that was to be attended by U.S. Army soldiers. Hundreds of lives could have been lost had the plot been successfully executed."
http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=6808

"The bomb was intended to be planted at a non-commissioned officer's dance at Fort Dix, New Jersey.
The bomb was packed with nails to inflict maximum casualties upon detonation."

2007 Fort Dix attack plot

A group of six radical Islamist[1] men, allegedly plotting to stage an attack on the Fort Dix military base in New Jersey, United States, were arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on May 7, 2007. They were subsequently charged with planning an attack against U.S. soldiers. The alleged aim of the six men was said to be to "kill as many soldiers as possible".[2] Their trial began on October 20, 2008. [3]

Opening arguments were presented on October 20, 2008.
Assistant U.S. Attorney William Fitzpatrick said the defendants were inspired by jihad saying "Their motive was to defend Islam. Their inspiration was Al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden.

Another terrorist attack inside this country did not stop King Hussien from another apology, ass kissing tour of the middle east and Europe. Certainly the death of a soldier is nothing for him to be concerned about....

they had an extended bio feature with Ayers and Dohrn on CSan yesterday. They present themselves as models of stabilty and the world’s most reasonable couple. 20 + years of tenure, and his biggest worry is whether the dean will yell at him for posting personal material, pictures, articles, etc. on the wall adjacent to his office door.What a parallel universe bubble academia and MSM have allowe these two to inhabit for 35-40 years.
