Well Done, Mr. President

Considering his disturbing performance the afternoon of the massacre at Fort Hood I was nervous that President Obama would get the tone wrong in today's memorial of the fallen.

I should have known better.

There are few things he does well, but reading from a teleprompter is one of those things he excels at, and he gave the soldiers killed in the terror attack the memorial service they deserved.

Allah has the video, and has more to say about the President's address.

Lackwit got something right where the military was concerned?

Must've been an accident.

Not well done. Nice words, no action. We are still sitting ducks. Where is the call to action, the policy change the fierce defense of American people? nada, just words. And he still is bringing or has brought, 1,350 Palestinians who had lived under favor of Saddam Hussein in Iraq, who can't seem to get along with any of their fellow middle easterners so Obama has agreed to bring them here. The man's a traitor.

Empty words of another, read from a teleprompter, five dys after the fact....yeah, a lot of respect that shows. Just one more photo opp for His Zero-ness!

I agree with Ralph Peters, this effort was both insincere and weak. This poseur will never get it!

Do his speech writers really think that all he needs to do is talk?

I don't know what Obama was thinking. He should just run out onto the streets with guns and start killing Muslims. Then you can accuse him of genocide. No wait, he shouldn't run out on the streets and start killing Muslims. Then you can accuse him of being soft. He should institute policies that better track Muslims to detect terrorist activities. Then you can accuse him of Stalinism. No wait, he should respect civil liberties and NOT institute policies to track Muslims. Then you can accuse him of being a terrorist sympathizer. He should save the baby Jesus from drowning in the lake of fire. Then you can accuse him of being anti-Semitic. No wait, he should let the baby Jesus drown in a lake of fire. Then you can accuse him of being anti-Christian. He should have prevented this man from killing 13 fellow soldiers at Fort Hood. Then you can accuse him of being a Nazi. No, he should let this man kill 13 of his fellow soldiers at Fort Hood. Then you can call him weak on our Nation's defense. He should prevent terrorist attacks. Then you have nothing to celebrate. No, he should allow terrorist attacks so you can celebrate.

They were good words and it is my hope the families were comforted by them.
He spoke them well and I give him credit for that.

Yeah Lipiwitz has won the Crazy Award. That was distilled Liberalism; more Liberal than even Jim and Dude.

This is one I'm going to quote:

"He should just run out onto the streets with guns and start killing Muslims."

also

he should let the baby Jesus drown in a lake of fire.
he should allow terrorist attacks

To me, Obama always seemed frivolous when it came to his CIC duties. Perhaps this terribly real one on one experience with men and women he is actually responsible for will help him grow into the job a little. Afghanistan casualties with his name on them are on the way

I am glad you thought he did a good job. In watching the clip on the news, I was struck by how empty and insincere he sounded. I contrasted this with my memories of Pres. Bush following 9/11 and Pres. Reagan following the Challenger shuttle disaster (that speech brought me to tears).

Some of the speech was okey dokey, but as with anything Obama talks about that is not pushing big Government, the O comes across as phony. I heard the word comrades and then the phrase "in an era of selfishness"...that's a load of crap. The taxpayers are ante-ing up 50% of income in combined taxes and the non taxpayers are clamoring for more, it's the obamabots who are the selfish ones. The Obama government and the liberal p.c. crowd created the environment that let this happen.
