PRESIDENT OBAMA: "Well, look, we -- we have seen, in the past, rampages of this sort. And in a country of 300 million people, there are going to be acts of violence that are inexplicable. Even within the extraordinary military that we have -- and I think everybody understands how outstanding the young men and women in uniform are under the most severe stress -- there are going to be instances in which an individual cracks. I think the questions that we're asking now and we don't have yet complete answers to is, is this an individual who's acting in this way or is it some larger set of actors? You know, what are the motivations? Those are all questions that I think we have to ask ourselves. Until we have these answers buttoned down, I'd rather not comment on it."

“Well, look, we — we have seen, in the past...blah blah blah..... Until we have these answers buttoned down, I’d rather not comment on it.”
He’s rather not comment on it - even though he just did.
Something is seriously wrong with this guy.
John Allen Muhammad and Nidal Malik Hasan are birds of a feather, with the same self improvement book......the qur'an!
Obama is cracking under the stress.
If he cant call a Jihadist a Jihadist, he’s clueless.
If he thinks “stress” causes rampages like this rather than a twisted and deliberate attempt to cause great harm, he’s an idiot.
If he is deliberately discounting the ROP angle, he’s a liar.
D@mn good post!
“Allegedly Well, allegedly look, allegedly we — allegedly we allegedly have allegedly seen, allegedly in allegedly the alleged past, alleged rampages allegedly of allegedly this alleged sort.
“Obama Suggests Hasan May Have Cracked Under Stress”
Someone’s cracked alright.
What a joke! This obamma guy spends a few moments commenting on this killer, then ends up saying he'd rather not comment on the killer.
I was just thinking that. Imagine how awful it must be to hear this if you lost a family member.
For being a skinny President this guy is dealing out a lot of bullsh*t!
I’m old enough to remember the kerfuffle when President Nixon pronounced the Mansons guilty while the trial was still going on. Nonetheless, the President of the United States should be talking about protecting the American people from terror - and taking steps to do it. Instead of doing what he is doing, which is nothing good.
Is this really what everyone voted for a year ago?
POTUS is a flaming idiot. If it walks like a terrorist, talks like a terrorist, shoots like a terrorist and kills like a terrorist, HE IS A TERRORIST. Only the POTUS, FBI and Chief of Staff of the Army cannot see that.
What is worse, at the Ft.Hood ceremonies today, not one mention was made by Hussein or the Army General Officers that spoke about the perp or his Islamic history. A travesty all around and in particular against the victims of the terrorist.
May God bless our brave men and women in uniform, as they strive to defend us. They deserve better.
Why thank you, sir. I’m getting stressed. Time for a shot. Of an adult beverage.
“Bill Handel out here in LA (get podcast) just went through a 30 minute diatribe on why the president cannot say anything for or against him due to a defense law of how his comments might influence the jury.
He noted most will not like the speech due to the limitations on the president.”
That’s utter nonsense and excuses. President Bush didn’t hold back after 911. He called them by their proper name (evil) and then went out to kill them! This is what we get when we have a democrat/marxist administration. It’s a ‘law enforcement’ issue now...not a war on terror.
I hope he didn’t say this at the memorial service ...
Don’t forget, as a doc this guy was a non-combatant and wasn’t supposed to carry a weapon in the combat zone. When I was in RVN in 1968, we had an AF doc get in trouble for buying an M16 on the black market.
