Axelrod: Obama thinks Boston bombings could be related to tax day
Weekly Standard ^

Posted on 04/16/2013 7:24:03 AM PDT by Windy City Conservative

In explaining why President Obama didn't call the Boston bombings a "terrorist attack," former adviser David Axelrod said, "I'm sure what was going through the president's mind is -- we really don't know who did this -- it was tax day":

"The word has taken on a different meaning since 9/11," Axelrod said of the phrase "terrorist attack."

"You use those words and it means something very specific in people's mind. And I'm sure what was going through the president's mind is -- we really don't know who did this -- it was tax day. Was it someone who was pro--you know, you just don't know. And so I think his attitude is, let's not put any inference into this, let's just make clear that we're going to get the people responsible."

I'm fairly certain the police have a good idea who is likely responsible for this thing - terrorist bombers aren't interested in anonymity, it defeats their purposes. Yet for some reason they do not want to release any info.

Anyway its clear the authorities discourage speculation where muslim terrorism is concerned yet encourage it when right wingers might be involved.

Maybe it was an Obamaphone recipient. Check the cellphones at the scene of the crime.

Hi AB! Nice to see you in a different thread from the Sunday Talk Show Thread.

Why has no one mention the NORKS? Yesterday was the “birthday” of Kim Il Song—fat boy Kim Jong Eun’s grandfather. Fatty Kim has been boasting for weeks that he’ll attack the US.

David Axelrod said, “I’m sure what was going through the president’s mind is” I hope this crap won’t keep me off the golf course!

Obama thinks "PRESENT."

"Bush's fault!"

"Women and children most affected!"

It seems MUCH more likely that this would be the work of the violent hate-filled self-loathing Occupiers than an Patriotic American....

North Korea isn’t going to attack anyone.

That would mean a war that they simply cannot win and they know it.

Of all the despicable, low life scumbag #%&($

Obama told us ‘not to jump to conclusion’ yet he's pretty free to do exactly that on his own, no doubt nudged by Axelrod & Co. (”Rumor” of Obama cleansing his inner core to have no dissenters.)

That must be because he is extra special or something...

I’m enraged by a tax day movie and didn’t even know it.

Although we really can’t get into the mind of such a crazy common sense would suggest that any anti-tax or Tea Party would avoid doing something to protest that would result in BIGGER government with increased costs to first time responders.

My guess is that the objective of the bomber was to increase the size of government which would likely result in LESS freedom.

Obama is an idiot. I have little faith we will ever know what happened in Boston yesterday if it depended solely on the Obama administration. At some point anger in Boston will kick in. Obama will find out that Boston is NOT Benghazi.

Has anyone heard anything about LaGuardia being evacuated.

My son ran in Boston yesterday. He just called to see if there was any news about the airport. His plane just landed there, they were told get get their stuff and get off ASAP. He called from outside the terminal. No one is telling them anything, but the bomb squads are there.

They hate us? It is unbelievable that a person close to the President of the United States would say such things, nd the TOTUS would think them. It is a disgrace.

No thinking about it, Axelrod and his parents come from the long roots of Chicago communism and even back to the Russian revolutionists like Lenin and Trotsky in particular. I have often wondered who in Chicago, I firmly believe, was the person(s) that told a Russian dinner hostess in the 1980s that someone with upfront background and the name of Barrack was being primed to be POTUSA. There is a huge gap of knowledge and publicity about this situation but I believe it is one of the keys to open the door on Obama. Obama’s parents, both sides, were also fervent communists.

Axelrod is feeding slop to his drooling low information fools.

Better guess?

Is it possible these are the people behind the Boston Marathon Massacre?

15th of April.. African Freedom Day

These are Black Marxist Anti-Capitalist Whitie Haters.

And remember that Libya is in Africa, and Obozo actively supported his overthrow and death.

“Obama’s lament: No way to tie this into guns and right-wing crazies.”

Don’t worry, the Ministry of Propaganda and Correct Thought is working on it presently.
