The White House on Monday blamed the Justice Department for the decision to redact references to radical Islamic terrorists from transcripts of the Orlando shooter’s telephone conversations with police.

The White House did not provide guidance to the Justice Department or participate in the censorship of the transcripts, which were released earlier in the day, said press secretary Josh Earnest.

“All of the decisions about releasing the transcripts were made by Justice Department officials,” he said at the daily press briefing at the White House.

Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

THIS White House and THIS Dept. of Justice are tied together like Siamese twins!

At the end of the day, Obama cares about NO ONE but himself. He’ll do whatever it takes to save his reptilian skin while promoting the religion o’peas.

[NYRepublican72]

I’m surprised the DOJ’s redaction didn’t go as follows: Find: Radical Islam... Replace: this evil gun.

Stupid Democrats.

[TomGuy]

Of course they blame someone else or some other department. They won’t take responsibility for anything that might be negative.

[jazusamo]

You nailed that, what a great way of expressing it!

I believe it was Loretta.. She is a political hack and that is precisely why she should not be the one making the decision on whether to prosecute Hillary..

[WENDLE]

Can you imagine what she will do with hillary’s criminal case? I think this was a crime of tampering with evidence. Why is she covering for ISLAM?? I think that is why she was ordered to release the full transcript. She should resign immediately. Even quisling Ryno was offended!! She told us when she first seized office she would prosecute us for anti- islamic statements. remember that?

The revised transcripts still use “God” in place of “Allah”, do they not?

This administration is still playing word games.

[jazusamo]

You’re correct, “Allah” is not written, only “God”.

Also there’s only one transcript that I’ve seen and there were four phone converstions.

[jazusamo]

There’s no doubt in my mind she will not indict Hillary no matter what’s in the FBI report.

[SaveFerris]

It’s what they do. They don’t know any other form of speech the last 7.5 years.

[rejoicing]

We din do muffin! Someone else is always to blame;!!!

[anton]

Yea, but what about all the other calls the towelhead made?

[uncbob]

Obama has never had a problem with throwing others under the bus when the heat gets turned up on him.

Another thing he has in common with Clinton

[WENDLE]

It will cause a huge political earth quake never before seen in this country Trump wins all 50 states if she does that.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Throwing Loretta under the bus. LOL!

[Lazamataz]

Wow, now entire Agencies are going under the Obama Bus.

[dp0622]

this administration is getting closer to Goebbels’ strategy every day

[Exeter]

“Mr. Obama has said the term (radical Islam)risks insulting or alienating Muslims who could help the U.S. fight terrorism.”
Let’s change that slightly;
“Mr. Roosevelt has said the term “Nazi” risks insulting or alienating Germans who could help the U.S. fight global fascism.”
Try again, Mr. President...

The old “Janet did it” routine revisited.
