Obama tells cops: 'We have your backs'
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/19/16 | Kelly Cohen

Posted on 07/19/2016 12:44:08 PM PDT by Nachum

President Obama wrote an open letter to the nation's police officers Monday night to say "we have your backs," after two separate shootings in which eight police officers were killed in Dallas and Baton Rouge.

His letter was addressed to the "brave members of our law enforcement community" and was posted on the Fraternal Order of Police's Facebook page. Obama offered his unwavering support to police as they "do their difficult, dangerous jobs."

"I want you to know that the American people see it, too," the president wrote. "We recognize it, we respect it, we appreciate it, and we depend on you."

Obama said he will not use the current tense situations in many states "to divide police and communities you serve."

Fingers crossed behind his back no doubt. Well, maybe if they go ahead and “admit” there’s a problem.

“We’ll shoot you in the back.”

Obama is a puppet of the Party. I don't think that a SINGLE word comes out of his mouth without, um, "permission."

Does anyone KNOW, if the President Barak Obama made any personal calls to the widows of slain officers offering his deepest condolences and shared their immense pain. The black guy Shaw at the Republican Convention said Mr. Trump gave him a call and asked if he was doing okay. It brought tears to a lot of people that Trump has a true tender side.

what ass saving crap. No one in this country has incited these animals to kill police more than Barack HUSSEIN obama. What a pathetic gesture at this point. Every body knows that.
