Obama goes on tirade against Trump over Muslim ban, 'radical Islam'
CNN ^ | June 14, 2016 | Kevin Liptak and Karl de Vries

Posted on 06/14/2016 10:10:59 AM PDT by PROCON

Washington (CNN)President Barack Obama on Tuesday unleashed a blistering verbal assault on Donald Trump and his proposal for a ban on Muslims entering the country, saying the suggestion violates the principles of American democracy and dismissing the "yapping" from "politicians who tweet."

Obama also angrily pushed back against criticism for not using the term "radical Islamic terrorism," calling it "loose talk."

"What exactly would using this language accomplish? What exactly would it change?" Obama asked during remarks at the Treasury Department. "Would it make ISIL less committed to try and kill Americans?" he continued, using a different acronym for ISIS.

Most people who have worked with Comey think he’s OK, but its more likely that he is a career bureaucrat who doesn’t want to jeopardize his job/retirement. Presidents come and go but the bureaucrats and technocrats in the government work though various administrations. They just hunker down and ride out the administrations. Also people in government are obsessed with job security and don’t usually buck their bosses. I doubt he’s bought and paid for but he is towing the line. No question about it.

Interestingly, the FBI just got one black eye over the Orlando shootings. They spent ten months investigating that guy. If they let Hillary skate, the bureau will suffer another hit on its credibility.

He is not one of us. He never has been.

My take on Obama is he a communist at his core and Muslim by upbringing and allegiance. . . 'Enemy of my enemy is my friend,' thus the Commie-Islamo alliance.

One thing we all know, he is Not an American. It really boggles your mind when you think, "How did this guy even get nominated to run for President?" The answer to that gives me chills.

Trump has a Lot of work to do after he gets to D.C. He's going to need all of us to back him and give him as much help and support as we can.

Going to take a generation and several elections to clean out Washington D.C. and get back to a constitutionally based republic.

As a sidebar, I hope our best minds, in government and the private sector literally Volunteer to help Trump. . I'm talking high powered CEOs, 'people of the mind', doers, people that get things done. . . and are Patriots at heart. . I'm thinking people that will Drop Everything and Volunteer to give their best talents to help Trump in a truly Patriotic Way. . Almost like joining the SEALS. . Truly concerned Americans. . Just think of the various Teams they could form to Get Things Done. . Rip up the EPA, Gut the State Department, Gut the IRS, you could write a 10 page list. . Charge and Restore our Constitutional Republic!

EVery single race and religion that has come to this country has had to endure it—ie the Irish, the Chinese, the Italians, the Greeks even the Africans. Some have assimilated faster than others, like the Germans and the Scandinavians.

It called this: A race of people have arrived to a point of being accepted in society, when it can produce a few thieves and scoundrels and rest are not held accountable.

I'm sorry, but the Muslim faith is far from accepted. They do not assimilate or even try to. So, until they do, yes, a few at the moment are representing the majority.

Love it. What a pussy. Sounds just like a whinny parent who’s kids are not listening to him. FUBO, love it. Funny, why doesn’t CNN have comments on this story. Could it be the Clinton News Network already knows what it’s loyal followers would be saying. God, sorry Allah, what a loser. Finally, after 7 3/4 years the bloom is coming off the rose. Get your hair dyed again loser. How could the American people vote for this POS traitor not just once but twice.

He really sounds defensive, and said nothing of importance other than blame Republicans for everything and anything.

He had his best speech writers working over time on it. And yes, Obama, it took President Roosevelt calling Nazi Germany the enemy to get the ball rolling to destroy the regime.

The hussy had a hissy.

Why is it a fact this pResident continues to be more angry with US (US citizens, than anyone else?) We have never liked him, never agreed with him, never assumed he would be giving the country anything of value or wisdom. The latest tirade, it must be assumed, he now understands our disdain and finds himself unable to handle it.

Why is this moron the only one who calls them ISIL?

a) because he can,
b) because the ISIL 'caliphate' must include Israel...

I assuming a lot here.
I seriously doubt that he knows what The Levant is...

Obama uses ISIL because it EXCLUDES Israel.

You have it exactly backwards.
He assumes that the new Caliphate will INCLUDE what used to be Israel.

It would eliminate Israel.

But he uses language that pre-dates Israel, delegitimizing its right to exist. You describe conquering what once existed; I describe acting as if it never existed.

The President’s power to pardon is in the Constitution. It sucks, but he CAN do this.

I'm not so sure.

I doubt a single participant or debater of the Constitution's creation entertained the absurd idea that a criminal can pardon himself.

The Constitution is mute on that point.
If there is such an absurd reference, I welcome a citation, or link, even from an insane asylum...
