Good lord almighty
I may be losing it but I am really starting to think this guy is the Anti-Christ or something. Maybe the guy is the 12th Imam?
Only thing I am sure of is he aint an American.
Commander in Chief....Bah!!
“There’s been a shooting at Ft.Hood. Hey, anybody seen Bill Ayers?” rim shot...laughter
Disturbing to say the least. At that time he made the speech Obama KNEW at least 12 soldiers were dead and another 30 or so wounded. No doubt he also knew the last name of the shooter....
My final complaint; the CMO recipient he named never received the CMO, he received a civilian version by Obama himself. What a slap in the face of every CMO recipient that earned the CMO in combat.
Then why is he tryinhg tomove proven terrorists froom GITMO to the Navy Brig in Chaleston, SC? Jim DeMint is FURIOUS over it. We have had quite enough of Muslim berzerkers let loose on the US public and our military.
Protection of America from Muslims? I don't believe an effing word of it. He is lying again.
Some people call 911 tragic too.
I'm not one one of them.
I saw this on TV last nite and I was dumfounded at what I heard. I thought he was doing a campaign speech, even while he know of the tragedy at Ft. Hood. What a bastard!
Worst
President
Ever
He is only doing what his handlers direct him to do
Shoutout Gate!
I was watching when he made these remarks. Couldn’t believe all that jive he did at the beginning.
But the quote you picked up was the one that really made my jaw drop:
“I want all of you to know that as commander-in-chief, there’s no greater honor, but also no greater responsibility for me than to make sure that the extraordinary men and women in uniform are properly cared for.... “
Note the construction of that statement.
He made it ABOUT HIM. Honor...for ME. Responsibility...for ME. I make sure....
The “extraordinary men and women” were reduced to the object of HIS responsibility.
Picky perhaps. But read aloud and in full, the entire sentence was about HIM, not the soldiers.
Oh, one other thing.
Could maybe some politician....ANY politician...PLEASE express a little ANGER along with all those condolences we’ve been hearing?
I’m furious. Why aren’t they?!
But as some of you might have heard, there has been a tragic shooting at the Fort Hood Army base in Texas. We don’t yet know all the details at this moment. We will share them as we get them.
What we do know is that a number of American soldiers have been killed, and even more have been wounded in a horrific outburst of violence.
My immediate thoughts and prayers are with the wounded and with the families of the fallen and with those who live and serve at Fort Hood.
These are men and women who have made the selfless and courageous decision to risk and at times give their lives to protect the rest of us on a daily basis.
It’s difficult enough when we lose these brave Americans in battles overseas.
It is horrifying that they should come under fire at an Army base on American soil.
I’ve spoken to Secretary Gates and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen, and I will continue to receive a constant stream of updates as new information comes in.
We are working with the Pentagon, the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, all to ensure that Fort Hood is secure and we will continue to support the community with the full resources of the federal government. In the meantime, I would ask all Americans to keep the men and women of Fort Hood in your thoughts and prayers. We will make sure that we get answers to every single question about this horrible incident, and I want all of you to know that as commander-in-chief, there’s no greater honor, but also no greater responsibility for me than to make sure that the extraordinary men and women in uniform are properly cared for an that their safety and security when they are at home is provided for.
So we are going to stay on this, but I hope in the meantime that all of you recognize the scope of this tragedy and keep everybody in their thoughts and prayers.
As much as I dislike Bummer, he was speaking at a conference when he made the above comments about Ft Hood. I’m not sure how much more he could have said, based on the info he had at the time he spoke. jmo
THANK YOU!
I was thinking the exact same thing. What an insult!!
I’m pretty sure our military can get along just fine without your tender loving “care” Mr. Pre_sent, they ain’t a buncha of babies, like you.
Had he opened up with those remarks, that would be one thing. But he spoke for 2.5 minutes before making those comments.
Five paragraphs and laughter before he even acknowledged there were military men and women gunned down on their own soil by a savage Muzzie.
Five paragraphs.
FUBO

The “extraordinary men and women” were reduced to the object of HIS responsibility.
Considering that he IS their BOSS, yeah he is responsible for their well being. Having said that, has he taken that responsibility and made sure that our troops if Afghanistan and Iraq have everything they need to ensure their safety and to do their jobs in a safe manner? THAT is the question. jmo
