Obama's got Nothing to Say - 9/11
Various | 09/11/2009

Posted on 09/11/2009 7:23:21 AM PDT by Responsibility2nd

It's the anniversay of 9/11. It seems obvious that many Americans forgot the pain and loss that Islamists caused us 8 years ago. After all, we have a president that is sympathetic to those who would destroy America.

And so I was wondering what Barack Obama would say and do to commemorate this special day.

Turns out.... He's got nothing to say.

Am I being over-critical of Obama. After all - A Moment of Silence is very appropriate.

But I can only imagine the damage he would cause himself if he had a speech to give.

I don’t need B. Hussein 0bama’s stammering lies to remember September 11th and who our enemies are.

If he said anything at all, someone would have to interrupt with a shout of "You Liar!!!".

Of course, that applies to any 0bama speech, anywhere, on any occasion or subject.

I saw that moment of silence on the Fox this morning. I thought the reporters said that Øbama was going to give a statement later in the day about 911? We’ll see. I too was wondering why he didn’t say a word but I guess it’s obvious.

Nope.
The best thing he can do is just STFU.

I wish he'd find a corner of the oval office (heh, heh) and STFU for the rest of his term.

First time he’s avoided the cameras — except when “vacationing” of course — in recent history. The man loves the limelight.

So his silence today is telling. Very telling.

"But I can only imagine the damage he would cause himself if he had a speech to give."

And how weak it would look because he couldn't do it without dual teleprompters.

He doesn’t want to speak badly of those of his faith.

I would love to know where 0 was and what his reaction was on Sept. 11, 2001. Does anyone know?

I heard a clip on the radio. Obama was speaking at the Pentagon, I think. He said that the people died in an “incident”.

An “incident.”

9/11 was an “incident.”

Never mind. I found it.

“Within days,” 0 issued a statement later that said we need to try “understanding the sources of such madness.”

Sounds grief-stricken, doesn’t he?

From your NYT's link, above:

At noon, there is a service at the Washington National Cathedral, and several organizations are bringing together students and others for a day of volunteer service, a new way this year of commemorating Sept. 11.

Service. Service as punishment to atone for national sins? Service to make right the wrongs we committed that caused the "chickens to come home to roost?"

This "Day of Service" drek on 9/11 is a peek into Obama's contemptuous mind. It's also deeply offensive.
