President Obama will focus his speech at a memorial service in Tucson on Wednesday evening on the victims of the attack and on the idea of service to the country, avoiding any overt commentary on the debate over violence and the nations political culture.
Instead, Mr. Obama, who was still working with his speechwriters on his remarks on Tuesday, will call for unity among Americans, while trying to honor the victims, including their service to government, as an example to all Americans. He will share the anecdotes about the victims that he has learned during private phone calls to the families, aides said.
By staying above the partisan fray, Mr. Obama is adopting a model that is very close to what President Bill Clinton did 16 years ago, when Mr. Clinton was faced with responding to the Oklahoma City bombing at a similar point in his presidency. On April 23, 1995, four days after Timothy McVeigh detonated a truck bomb in front of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, Mr. Clinton traveled to Oklahoma City, where he told grieving family members at a memorial service that those who trouble their own house will inherit the wind.

.....next week he’ll refocus like a laser....like he was refocused last week....and the week before when he was refocused in Hawaii.
He who instigates is responsible ... even if undocumented.
Obama:
They Bring a Knife

Obama to His Followers:

Obama on ACORN Mobs:
I dont want to quell anger. I think people are right to be angry! Im angry!
Obama to His Mercenary Army:
Hit Back Twice As Hard
Obama on the private sector:
We talk to these folks
so I know whose ass to kick.
Obama to voters:

Obama to lib supporters:
Its time to Fight for it.
Obama to Latino supporters:

Emotional liberal-fascism on air at it again
Bill Maher will not like - he wants ‘angry black man Obama.
What does any of this episode have to do with “service to the country”?
I couldn’t care less what he has to say. He treated the Fort Hood massacre in an undignified manner and didn’t even attend the one year memorial services. He’s not MY president.

Maybe he'll unveil his "civilian national security force"...to solve the problem of alienated, unemployed youth, dontcha know.
Don’t hold back, tell us how you really feel :)
This speech will be filled with very veiled and nuanced accusations backing up the slander over the last 5 days.
I heard some dem pundit saying this was a very important “speech” for Obama’s reelection chances.
I wonder if TOTUS is fired up and ready to roll out the phony and pompous baloney for the sheep?

the teleprompter reader in-chief is getting ready to blame 70% of the population for something that one guy did.
He wants his own civilian army - just as well armed and trained as the US military. That way he can handle all the refusniks (racist, hate talkers) in the country.
...he’ll get his dig in, you can rest assured. A world stage is just too good to bypass.....
