Didn’t see or hear this, fortunately. I’ve got two questions:

1. Did he use the word terrorist?

2. Did he use the word Muslim or equivalent?

I’m betting a big NO to both questions.

I have a bit of a problem. If one has done all the things necessary to get a concealed carry permit (on the ground), why can’t we conceal carry on an airplane? (above the ground) It seems we, the people, are the only ones who want to take care of and protect ourselves and our neighbors. Bowrama and his minions think otherwise.

Wish someone would make a chart of each “I”,”ME” and “MY” after each speech......Keeping and publishing a chart with the information should be a worthwhile project....Sorry I don't have the know-how to do so.

Watching this on fax right now.

How can you do this? Isn't it a little slow? Do they fax the whole speech at once or just a word at a time?

I despise his no tie appearance, no respect for the office, let alone the country.

I wonder when he considers an announcement serious enough to wear a tie? Did you notice the plain dark background (instead of the usual bunch of people moving around) which made his flapping ears very prominent. There wasn't any audience so why couldn't he just look at the cameras?

He never seems to look at the camera, he’s too busy swinging his head back and forth from one teleprompter to the other. But today he was reading from the podium rather than the teleprompter.

I believe there were reporters there as far as an audience, and he blew them off and took no questions. Gotta play golf ya know.

It took this long for the POSOTUS to control the smirk on his face and also to get instruction from the Soros bureau.

Some parallels with this flying terrorist and the Fort Hood Muslim shooter. Both should have been profiled, arrested, and put away. Here is an excerpt from the following video. Sarah Palin: Fort Hood Suspect Should Have Been Profiled

Hannity: "Do you think Fort Hood was an act of terroism?"

Palin: "I certainly do, and I think that there were massive warning flags that were missed all over the place, and I think that it was quite unfortunate that, to me, it was a fear of being politically incorrect to not -- I am going to use the word -- profile this guy, profile in the sense of finding out what his radical beliefs were. Simple things like looking at his business card that had the secret code word who it was he actually..."

Hannity: ..."contacting Al Qaeda, trying to contact Al Qaeda."

Palin: "Now, because I used the word profile, I am going to get clobbered tomorrow morning. The liberals, their heads are just going to be spinning. They're going to say she is radical, she is extreme. But I say profiling in the context of doing whatever we can to save innocent American lives, I'm all for it, then."

This latest jihadist left a graduate program run by an Australian university in Dubai, nearly 9 months after the Obamessiah had been elected and also long after the Jan. inauguration.

HUH, and then Obama made his big speech in Cairo bowing and scraping before the world of Islam.....

HUH, and somehow this guy and his trainers and comrades just don’t seem to get the message that Obama is their PAL and that the USA is no longer led by BOOOOSH

The scariest thing is how many liberals will now conclude that we need MORE groveling, more “day care centers” MORE inmates released from Gitmo (reportedly two of the organizers of the plot were Gitmo releases).........

From Obama's statement: First, I directed that we take immediate steps to ensure the safety of the traveling public. We made sure that all flights still in the air were secure and could land safely.

Explain to me how Obama could have ensured that all flights still in the air were secure and could land safely considering that Obama wasn't even notified of the attack until THREE HOURS AFTER the plane landed?

I watched this a bit earlier. What I found interesting is that he, the President of the United States, giving an official statement before the world, wasn’t even wearing a tie. You know, like Achmadinnerjacket and the other Muzzie leaders never wear a tie. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge?

He had an American flag pin on his jacket didn't he??

YOU KNOW he did not put that on his jacket. If he touched it , it would have burnt his fingers!
