Obama to attend memorial for Fort Hood victims

WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama will attend a memorial service Tuesday honoring victims of the Ford Hood shootings, an attack he described as "all the more heartbreaking and all the more despicable" because it occurred on the nation's largest Army post.

He praised those who ended the shootings, which killed 13 and wounded 30 others, and lauded the armed services' diversity—a move designed to calm tensions about the suspected shooter, Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan.

"They are Americans of every race, faith and station. They are Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus and nonbelievers," Obama said in his radio and Internet address Saturday, airing the weekend before Veterans Day.

This is an insult to every patriotic American and member of our military to allow this treasonous, worthless, cowardly POS to attend.

When will the country and the leftist “progressives” undertand the threat from Islam? The Muslims want us and Western civilization dead. What part of that do they not understand?

I didn't think that could disrespect/dislike anyone more than Hitlery and The Rapist Clintoon but OZero has entered a whole new realm of that in my book.

As a Christian I'm supposed to pray for my enemies and love them like I love myself but is so damn difficult to do it with him.

"He finally had time to line-up 100 cameras for the photo op."

My thoughts exactly.

He’ll probably bring in his own soldiers to make sure his photo op shows a diverse enough group of wounded.

Here is a video Montage that I found on You Tube today:

Shows Obama quotes about Muslims and lends credibility to his being Muslim — be prepared to want to hurl when you watch.

There he goes again.

That’s it, I just shouldn’t read anything he’s said, hear anything that comes out of his piehole,see his image in any form. He’s sickening.

I’ll have to go back to my total ban of Hussein. I dared to watch his statement on Thursday afternoon. I had always avoided him, but wanted to see his statement.

I was stunned to see him giving “shout outs” to his pals at the conference for several minutes before he said anything about slain US soldiers at Fort Hood. No words can describe what a disgrace he is.

It hurts my American heart to have him be fake president.

Someone please publish his real birth certificate and end this national nightmare.

On the remote of the #1 main TV here the word MUTE has been rubbed off of the button due to heavy use because of that Kenyan usurper. Pelosi, Reid and Barney are on the mute list also and have contributed to the demise of the text.

Who cares. We don’t want him there. He will probably be praising allah while pretending to feel bad for our troops. I’m done with this muslim in chief.

If I had a family member killed by this monster, I would tell the military that they had to choose between me and barry. I would REFUSE to be a part of the event if barry was going to be there.

I agree!
