Obama's Frightening Insensitivity Following Shooting

Full story: www.nbcchicago.com

After news broke out of the shooting at the Fort Hood Army post in Texas, the nation watched in horror as the toll of dead and injured climbed. The White House was notified immediately and by late afternoon, word went out that the president would speak about the incident prior to a previously scheduled appearance. At about 5 p.m., cable stations went to the president. The situation called for not only his trademark eloquence, but also grace and perspective. But instead of a somber chief executive offering reassuring words and expressions of sympathy and compassion, viewers saw a wildly disconnected and inappropriately light president making introductory remarks. At the event, a Tribal Nations Conference hosted by the Department of Interior's Bureau of Indian affairs, the president thanked various staffers and offered a "shout-out" to "Dr. Joe Medicine Crow -- that Congressional Medal of Honor winner." Three minutes in, the president spoke about the shooting, in measured and appropriate terms. Who is advising him?

This president stinks.
Rahm Emmanuel is advising him.
This was terrorism on our soil straight up and simple. Obama is trying to snake his way around that by minimizing this incedent. Not only is he a terrible president and anti-American, he is a selfish and rotten man.

I watched obama's statement on the evening news.
He was cold, distant, and seemingly unmoved by the murders.

NBC is waking up to the Obama fraud.
And in Obama's home town too.

Can't wait to see how the whitehouse spins his insensitivity.

He was at another event for Native Americans when word broke on the shootings. What would you have done, ignored the event you were attending?
No matter what he did, some people are never satisfied. Go screw yourselves. Obama is running the show.

His puppet masters run him and everything he does.

Rahm Emmanuel is running the show. Obama will do what ever he tells him to say or do because Obama does not have a clue. Has Rahm told him what to do in Afganistan yet?

Kudos to Applebee's. They are giving the vets a free meal. Good for them. They love and appreciate our soldiers. That's more than you can say for Obama..
I am glad for our loyal soldiers.
I wish Obama knew what it felt like to be patriotic. He stinks.

I'm sure they would have understood if he took a few minuets out of his campaigning to address a grieving nation.
But no, He had to use this as an opportunity to play rock star.

Where are his priorities?

Let's not forget two statements from obama:

"I WILL STAND WITH MUSLIMS SHOULD POLITICAL WINDS SHIFT ..."

"Call to Islamic prayer is one of the prettiest sounds on earth at sunset."

and isn't so strange that he can quote the book of Quran so accurately

I particularly like this

"All the president's men (and women) fell down on the job Thursday. And Democrats across the country have real reason to panic."

Obama's presidentual response was a complete disappointment, very un-American, at this tragic event of national security.
