‘We can sustain another terrorist attack’ (Obama 2010 Flashback)
The Hill ^ | 9/22/10 | Ron Christie

Posted on 04/21/2013 7:14:39 PM PDT by Nachum

As a patriotic American, I hope the Washington Post über-journalist misquoted President Obama in his upcoming book discussing the president's thinking behind the war on terrorism. Reading advance excerpts earlier today, I came across the following quotation attributed to the president:

"We can absorb a terrorist attack. We'll do everything we can to prevent it, but even a 9/11, even the biggest attack ever ... we absorbed it and we are stronger."

How dare the president opine that "we can absorb a terrorist attack”? This isn't a gravel spill or an overturned apple cart in which no one gets hurt. No, we're talking about an act of terror, an act of murder in which innocent people are killed simply because they woke up one day and decided to drive to work, take their children to school or otherwise go about their daily lives.

On Sept. 11, 2001, 3,000 innocent Americans were murdered, killed, incinerated and fell from the sky due to an act of terrorism.

He sure is brave, behind his quadruple-thick security barrier and thousands of armed Secret Service agents.

If a Republican had been caught saying this, the Democrats and MSM would be shoving it in our face for the next fifty years.

Wonder how the family of the 8 year old boy and the sister and mother who were also hit feels about his?

Funny how in the gun control issue he wants to move heaven and earth to save just one child but in Islamist terror or abortion he’s oh so tolerant .

Translation: a few American lives sacrificed for the Marxist dream is an acceptable price.
