WASHINGTON – President Obama on Monday evening pledged the full weight of the federal government to help protect Bostonians -- and Americans -- and to figure out who is responsible for the explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon.
In a 3-minute address from the White House, Obama urged caution, saying “people shouldn’t jump to conclusions before we have all the facts.” Significantly, reflecting caution about the unknown motive for the attack, the president did not call the incident a terrorist attack.
“But, make no mistake,” he said. “We will get to the bottom of this. And we will find out who did this, we’ll find out why they did this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups, will feel the full weight of justice.”
He noted that the explosions occurred on Patriots Day, “a day that celebrates the free and fiercely independent spirit that this great American city of Boston has reflected from the earliest days of our nation.”

What an sash*le! Was there justice for US border guards and innocent Mexican killed by Holder and Obama?????? Where’s their JUSTICE! The full weight my ass! What Barry Butt-hole going to do, hit them with his purse!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought that my disgust with Obama was as high as it could go. Now he takes me to a higher level by having the guts to tell me not to jump to conclusions. That this narcissist could even think of telling anyone of more ethical and moral character how to think is abominable.
Nope. But Obama has made sure that the Saudi national designated as a person of interest, admitted with extensive burns to the Brigham Women's Hospital, is all lawyered up. That person of interest is being guarded by a Boston City Police SWAT team.
...and we need time to organize the coverup.
“Notice Obama never used the word “Terrorist” or “Terrorism””
Some NBC journo-yahoo was pronouncing the word as `tourists.’ You know they’re itching to call the perps `conservatives,’ when it seems more likely the lunatic was the nephew of some camel-humper who Zero bowed deeply to in Saudi Arabia.
Once that’s established, yeah—there’ll be no mention of “terrorism” and we can get back to legalizing criminals and criminalizing Americans.
Obama presser's SOLE purpose is for low-information and Holder's people consumption.
The intended audience is not us, regular Americans.
Unless they did it because they were insulted and are fighting for freedom from their oppressors, America. In which case they will be given a slap on the wrist and allowed to return to the battlefield.
Another “sound tough” moment for Obama with no intent to back up his words.
They will end up calling this workplace violence if it turns out to be an Arab..or they will sweep this story under the rug and after a few days it will be like it never happened..on twitter, its hysterical seeing libs tweet “Please dont let this guy be a Muslim” WOW, THAT is what they are concerned about..that is their concern, not the horror that happened today, nope, that is NOT what they are concerned with, they are more concerned with protecting those filthy animals than mourn for those whose lives will never be the same again
Heightened surveillance of all Tea Party members, Conservatives and “white” people that dislike the current administration. That’s a fact jack.
Ayres - sorry ~ all a bunch of darned Democrat baby killers anyway.
Come on Thunder, on the lighter brighter side Homeland Security has increased their ability to spy on everyday Americans... that's got to be worth something, right?
A government that would give guns to people knowing full well they would murder with them and hopefully generate a backlash against gun ownership is capable of a lot of unthinkable things.
I will keep my mind open.
>> President Obama says those responsible for marathon bomb will ``feel full weight of justice’’ <<
.
He should know, he hired them.
I am sick of savage, animalistic, murdering muslims! Why do we allow them in our country? Every muslim should have to live in a ME muslim country. Ship them out, starting today. Not another muslim allowed in this country!
I am surprised he did not say, “The police acted stupidly.”
He won’t do squat except to head to the golf course.
He is obviously pissed off that could not overwhelmingly pin the blame on angry white conservatives.
Yeah, and the perpetrators of Fast & Furious.
