The real Obama tells Americans what is going on.

I think it's quite a stretch to think he learned from the friend incident, and now is applying that to the shooter in this situation (another reason it can't be compared, the officer never shot his friend and no one lost their life).

Besides, why is it he always has benefit of the doubt for those on his left-leaning side? He doesn't give a rip about the military. The fact that he is giving the shooter the benefit of the doubt here, is identical to his giving his friend the benefit of the doubt in the beergate debacle. He's ALWAYS on the wrong side of giving the benefit of doubt, and never on the side of what is right.

very good point

This is something I pulled off the internet and it holds true now more than any oher time in our history.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. — Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

I think it is coming to that time when we need to take our government and our country back from despots. It is our right to do so and it is our duty. If the userpers pass one more law contrary to the the Constitution it will be time to take it back.

Just my opinion, but why isn't he here yet? To much on his agenda? He is the Commander in Chief isn't he? Just my observation, maybe it's nothing.

In order for the President to claim at some future time that "No terrorist attack on U.S. soil occurred on my watch", no attack can be defined as an act of terrorism.

big difference!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not trying to call you out, but I figured that maybe you just didn't know:

"Allah" is simply the Arab word for God (or maybe Jehovah, Yahwey, I AM, or however you think of it). Muslims worship the same God that Christians and Jews do. In fact, they hold Jesus Christ is FAR higher regard than do Jews- who basically deny he ever existed.

I'm not trying to justify or apologize for anything (in fact, I'm making it a point not to comment on the shooting or it's motives until I see more facts)- I'm not Muslim (or Christian or Jewish, or any other religion, for that matter), I'm just interested in making sure everyone has the facts. After all, you wouldn't want to sound stupid, would you?

Dubya is a true patriot and never tried to convert this country to socialism.
