Obama: ‘We’ are to blame, not Islamic terrorism, for massacre

Obama: ‘We’ are to blame, not Islamic terrorism, for massacre

Omar Mateen called the cops to pledge his fealty to ISIS as he was carrying out his mass murderer in Orlando early Sunday morning. Twelve hours later, the president of the United States declared that “we have no definitive assessment on the motivation” of Omar Mateen but that “we know he was a person filled with hate.”

So I guess the president thinks Mateen didn’t mean it?

Here again, and horribly, we have an unmistakable indication that Obama finds it astonishingly easy to divorce himself from a reality he doesn’t like — the reality of the Islamist terror war against the United States and how it is moving to our shores in the form of lone-wolf attacks.

He called it “terror,” which it is. But using the word “terror” without a limiting and defining adjective is like a doctor calling a disease “cancer” without making note of the affected area of the body — because if he doesn’t know where the cancer is and what form it takes, he cannot attack it effectively and seek to extirpate it.

So determined is the president to avoid the subject of Islamist, ISIS-inspired or ISIS-directed terrorism that he concluded his remarks with an astonishing insistence that “we need the strength and courage to change” our attitudes toward the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.

That’s just disgusting. There’s no other word for it.

The American people voted for a man named “Hussein” 7 short years after 911. And the person running against him would not allow anyone to say the word “Hussein” when introducing him at a rally. Then the next person running against him was a member of his own weird religion so he sure as hell couldn’t attack islam.

Why would anyone be surprised with what’s happening and will continue to happen.

Obama may not be a practicing muslim, but he is on their side. When referring to ISIS he calls them ISIL which is the term used by the Islamic terrorists. The L stands for their language’s word for Israel. Obama is on their side and not ours. Islamic terrorism in this country is justified in his mind and he is importing more and more of these types into our country.

I’ve been calling Obama an “Islamic enemy agent” for years.

And what would you call those in Congress with the power to remove him, or the nattering nabobs in the MSM who make excuses for him?

It's not just Obama.

I guess when Obama says “WE,” maybe he means Obama and Muslims are the “WE.”

He most certainly can’t be pointing a finger at Americans, can he? /sarc

Nope. I've been calling King Obama for years as a communists black Muslim and have added for the last year a terrorists. Has this king, supported by the communists Democrats, the GOPe, and the MSM, caused more terror and destruction than any terrorists organization in the world?

No offense bro, but it's like observing that water is wet.

No points for stating the obvious.

Caused by you and Valerie Jarrett and Clinton and Holder Mr Obama, that is the 'we' Stop blaming your encouraging and causing terror on the America people. We will NOT stand still for that.

The 'republican' controlled Congress is every bit as much complicit in this as is those that control the Executive branch. Lying Ryan is giving Obama every nickel and dime he requests to ship in those Islamic refugees...

Obama’s statements and actions add up to only one thing: not only is Obama secretly a Muslim but he secretly supports Muslim terrorism. OK, maybe that’s two things.
