Obama Politicizes Charleston Murders

Dylann Storm Roof is this guy's name. They've captured him. They captured him 245 miles away from Charleston, South Carolina, and they captured him in North Carolina. He parked the black Hyundai under a tree. Either ran out of gas or just stopped to rest overnight or what have you, but he was captured and didn't present any problems upon arrest. Such a sad event. You know, every day, the news is just depressing. You gotta work past it, you gotta work through it each and every day.

Greetings, my friends, and welcome, great to have you, Rush Limbaugh, the EIB Network and the Limbaugh Institute for Advanced Conservative Studies. Telephone number is 800-282-2882 and e-mail address, ElRushbo@eibnet.com.

We here at the EIB Network are gonna jump to no conclusions whatsoever, and we are not going to try to make whatever happened here in Charleston, South Carolina, fit any kind of a narrative that we would want. We're just gonna wait. We're gonna back off, we're gonna wait, we're gonna find out what it is that there is to know about this shooter, rather than jump to any conclusions, not even gonna make any predictions.

I know that the left and the Drive-Bys are out now trying to hunt a Tea Party connection. You know that's happening. You know they're turning over every rock, they're doing everything they can to try to find a way to link this in a way that would advance their political agenda. And all I'm saying is we're not gonna do that here in any way, shape, manner, or form. We're just gonna wait 'til whatever there is to be learned about this -- his picture. He looks like a kid. So I'm just gonna wait. We all here at the EIB Network are going to wait.

It's just frustrating. It's anger, all of the emotions, just why? Why in the world would somebody want to do this? You go into a church and you sit and pray with people for an hour and then you open up, you start firing? I mean, this is just pure, unadulterated evil, for whatever reason. And it's inexplicable to civilized people. It just simply is inexplicable.

Keep in mind, there are more people dead, this church in Charleston, South Carolina, than in the Boston bombing. I'm just trying to draw a comparison here. It's real terrorism, if you want to look at it. It was certainly terror for the people in that church. So needless to say our prayers and condolences are with everybody on this. But it's just another one of these inexplicable cultural moments that has us all saying, "What is happening to our country?"

Anyway, as I say, I don't want to go much further on this because anything further is speculation. Everybody knows the facts of what happened here. So just sit back and be alert and stand by and be ready for whatever the people who want to turn this into a political opportunity do with it. And you know that they exist.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: You know, I was just thinking. We need to send the Shelby, North Carolina, police department up to New York. They caught this guy in, what, less than 12 hours? And the two convicts... I heard the two convicts in New York that escaped that were having sex with that guard... I mean, there's more stuff. Who would believe that? If you told someone that, who would...? (interruption) I heard they're in Mexico, that they may already be in Mexico, which means they want to come back and not get noticed.

That's the way to do it. We ought to send the Shelby, North Carolina, police. I mean, take a look how fast they caught the guy. Obama's ticked, by the way. Obama basically said what I just said. He's not gonna comment on any details here until facts are known. He'd like to, but he's gonna restrain himself. He's not gonna say a word about it, got the best and brightest in the FBI and local law enforcement are on the case. But he said he doesn't feel any constraints in talking about the emotions that are attached to the event. And he looks mad.

He's got that Clinton lip thing going, a frowning with a downward smile, which is a very hard thing to do, by the way. And his point is guns. He made it plain. He said, "Once again, once again something horrific happens because of how easy it is to get a gun in the United States," and then he said that things like this do not happen in other advanced countries. You just never hear about things like that in other advanced countries. You just don't have massacres like this. And his claim is that they've all got reasonable, responsible gun control.

And we don't and that's why these things keep happening, because guns are so easily available. I'm reminded Trump and his announcement the other day where he reported some woman told him that she'd been anti-gun her whole life, and then something happened where she lived, some criminals did some bad stuff. Oh, it was the prison escape. She went out, and she told Trump that her husband had always been a big gun guy, but she wasn't a gun gal, but now she has joined her husband.

She's a gun gal, her husband is a gun guy, and they've got a gun on every table, and Trump said that she told him, "Mr. Trump, we're ready to start shooting." (laughing) So, anyway, at least the first political agenda item is now officially on the table, and it was predictable, and that is, gun control. Straight from the White House and President Obama.

Instead of editorial what should I put in topics than?

[RoosterRedux]

Obama and Sharpton are going to light Charleston up just to watch it burn.

[Truth is a Weapon]

In the group assembled last night there were either one too many or one too few guns in the group.

No matter the left’s rhetoric, it is hard to imagine how any individual’s or group’s safety and security is improved by taking away their guns. If terrorists know that every group of people in America will be unarmed, it will be prime hunting grounds. The only other way protect them is for the police to set up a perimeter around every meeting and school and run every participant through a metal detector. Like that is going to heppen.

Can you imagine the uproar if every leftist meeting or convention required all the participants to provide their names and subject themselves to a search by a conservative police force?

If a conservative gets elected President this time I look for the immediate outrage about government surveillance of its citizens which are now advocated by those people.

[alloysteel]

Define “safer from what?”

[yoe]

I seldom listen to his crap but today i had it on he is such a POS He infuriates me beyond measure

Ditto that....Never one to let a "crisis" slip by, BHO once again exposed his ultra political self.

I am assuming all thinking people realize no law will ever stop a criminal from acquiring a weapon, in this case a gun. HBO knows that also......his insincerity reeks more than ever...if that is possible. .

>>Perhaps you should use your spell check and correct it.<<

What? You the FR hall monitor. Relax and let life just happen man.

[Lumper20]

And when any illegal murderer is discovered here in this USA he/she is not deported or even jailed until they have a hearing or hearings with a judge(s). That can take years and if we get killed no big deal. Obama has the Secret Service and could care less about us citizens.

[Intolerant in NJ]

... I heard the two convicts in New York that escaped that were having sex with that guard...at least Andy Taylor and Barney Fife get their man.....

[FJB]

As long as our “president” stands with his hands in his pockets and allows Christians, Jews, and innocent adherents of other religions to be slaughtered by militant muslims in the Middle East and Africa, he should have no standing to be heard on this subject. The same is true of his silence about the epidemic of violence against whites (including police officers) by blacks in this country. Until he is ready to become part of the solution rather than part of the problem, he really should keep his comments to himself.
