I don't what the weather (clear Texas afternoon) had to do with it. Of course he didn't mention that the murderer shouted allahu akbar (or however you spell it). Seemed like he'd rather have people's attention on the psychiatrist part.

After meeting with the FBI and the Defense Department about their investigation into the Fort Hood shooting, President Barack Obama used his weekly radio address on Saturday to again offer his condolences to the families and friends of those killed and injured.
On Thursday Maj. Malik Nadal Hasan opened fire on soldiers at a medical processing center on the Fort Hood, Texas military base killing 13 and wounding at least 38 others. Hasan was shot four times by security personnel at the base and was still alive as of Saturday.
Obama said that while the “crime against our nation” exemplified the worst human behavior, it was also a moment of pride for the country as the men and women involved in the shooting showed bravery and courage in the face of horror.
“We saw soldiers and civilians alike rushing to aid fallen comrades, tearing off bullet-riddled clothes to treat the injured, using blouses as tourniquets, taking down the shooter even as they bore wounds themselves,” he said.
“We saw soldiers bringing to bear on our own soil the skills they had been trained to use abroad.”
Obama ordered all flags above the White House, the Capitol, and every federal building to fly at half-mast until Veterans Day on Wednesday.
On Friday, Obama met with FBI Director Robert Mueller and Defense Secretary Robert Gates to discuss the ongoing investigation into what spurred Hasan to pick up two handguns and open fire, saying that he plans to “continue to be in close contact with them as new information comes in.”
Initial reports posited that Hasan, who had recently been transferred from Walter Reed medical center in Washington, D.C., to the Texas base, was discouraged by an impending deployment abroad.
“We cannot fully know what leads a man to do such a thing,” said Obama, who also offered his condolences on Thursday afternoon in the hours following the shooting in a nationally televised press conference.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) spoke in favor of a resolution on Friday that offered the unyielding support of the Congress for the victims affected by one of the worst shootings on a military base in modern times.
“Our brave men and women in uniform train day in and day out to preserve our security,” Pelosi said on the House floor. “They should never have to face or fear the forces of violence here at home.”
The House paused for a moment of silence on Thursday afternoon after news of the shooting surfaced.
Soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan contacted their family and friends at Ft. Hood in the hours after the shooting, Obama said, “all expressing the same stunned reaction: I’m supposed to be the one in harm’s way, not you.”
"Our President that YOU voted into office is a Muslim and he doesn't really care. It is evident by his response. He is caught in the middle between his religious cult loyalties and the Office he holds. He cannot call it what it is. As you can see in the media all the Imams condemning it however they know what they teach. We are fools to believe them. This will happen again and again and they will continue to condemn but they really condone it."
This was a case of ritualistic genocide, not just murder.There is a significant difference.
God defeated Allah at Fort Hood.He also did not let Hasan die to gain a seat next to his perverted god.
Political Correctness is used to keep America blind to what actually goes on inside a Mujihads heart mind. The left has worked so hard at making sure that America does not see its war against Terror as a religious war, when in fact the enemy sees it as EXACTLY that. A religious war.
This is , as Bush said, a war against evil. And evil came to Fort Hood in the form of a jihadi who was in fact possessed by Allah.For me this incident has shades of the movie “Exorcist.”
And Good has triumphed, even though so many innocents died.
This truth of which we speak needs to me shared with America as much as possible.America needs to know of the evil which it faces, at long last. No matter what the left want to make of it.
The religious practice of the Mujihad needs to be explained to every one. There is an inner prayer designed to connect one with the self righteous energy of Allah, who literally takes over the body and mind of the jihadine.That’s what happened here.A kind of Muslim spiritual possession.Hasan was not insane, or deranged. He was just fired up on his prayers and energized.He was executing a religious ritual which he believed would open the gates of heaven for him.Hasan expected to be killed so that he and his victims would end up basking in the radiance of Allah, which is the spiritual goal of the Mujahid. That is what makes this incident religious genocide. THIS IS A WAR CRIME.No different that the burning of the Jews by Hitler.
The MSM will not properly inform the public about this religious practice of jihadism.It would no longer be a war on terror,The terrorists could no longer be redefined as “criminals” by Obama , who should be Mirandized with the benefits of due process that Bush had made sure to remove, as deserved. These secret jihadist teachings now flourish on US soil, and within our own military. They must be rooted out and utterly destroyed.
“We cannot fully know what leads a man to do such a thing,” said Obama,
It is called EVIL you dumb ass!
GW had no problem saying Evil whats is your problem punk.
Oh, what a freeking fool.
Right before he hopped on Marine One for a relaxing weekend at Camp David.
I don't what the weather (clear Texas afternoon) had to do with it. Of course he didn't mention that the murderer shouted allahu akbar (or however you spell it). Seemed like he'd rather have people's attention on the psychiatrist part.
His teleprompter doesn't have the word "Jihad"...

Interesting! Thank you, Congressman. :)

Deep down inside, liberals believe that a Muslim who gets a dirty look because of this is a bigger victim than the dead and the wounded at Ft. Hood. That is how twisted liberals are. Obama can’t make such comments in public for political reasons, but liberal talking heads like Keith Overbite and Chrissy Matthews have made comments like that.
Recognize what liberals really believe. Don’t buy their “I’m really a moderate” lies. Liberals aren’t misguided, they’re evil.
-This was not a CRIME. It was an ACT of WAR. But then this alleged President who is in the White House now, does not understand a distinction like that.-
Sounds like Clinton all over again.
Focus on ‘Crime Against Nation’...
The biggest crime against the nation is the Big Government takeover of our healthcare system in the name of reform taking place tonight. Nazi Pelosi and her minions from Hell!!
