thats what Fox just showed but its on the web. People will see it. When someone defends him,when they ask that snarky,”do you really believe that about him?”,make sure you shove this under his nose.

People are already trying to cover for him. This was the only video on YouTube at the time that showed the remarks he made for over two minutes before mentioning the shooting at Fort Hood. Many other videos were posted of his remarks, but only beginning with what he said about Fort Hood. That is what will run on the cables and networks.

For comparison Sarasota, Fla., Tuesday morning, September 11, 2001 before the attacks spread to Washington:

“Ladies and gentlemen, this is a difficult moment for America. I unfortunately will be going back to Washington after my remarks. Secretary Rod Paige and the lieutenant governor will take the podium and discuss education.

I do want to thank the folks here at the Booker Elementary School for their hospitality.

Today we’ve had a national tragedy. Two airplanes have crashed into the World Trade Center in an apparent terrorist attack on our country. I have spoken to the vice president, to the governor of New York, to the director of the FBI, and I’ve ordered that the full resources of the federal government go to help the victims and their families and to conduct a full-scale investigation to hunt down and to find those folks who committed this act.

Terrorism against our nation will not stand.

And now if you join me in a moment of silence.

May God bless the victims, their families and America. Thank you very much.”

“My immediate thoughts and prayers are with the wounded”

After 2:25 of stumping for your agenda, that is.

Incredibly inappropriate speech. Three minutes of stumping and a “shout-out” before mechanically segueing into a tragedy is no way for a President to act.

Do you recall the left’s nasty critique of President Bush’s reaction AS HE LEARNED of the attacks on 9-11?

BO was briefed off-camera and CHOSE to open his remarks with business as usual.

What a self-absorbed a$$.

Old Media certainly will not put a stopwatch on Obama or question his reaction time. They are worse than cowards.

Thanks for the ping. I just posted the video on my Facebook page. Not that it won't travel fast through the military, but my military friends who have friends are going to be spreading this video EVERYWHERE.

BO you are a disgrace.

I posted the un-cut video to my FB account. I’m not giving him or the press a pass on this.

At the beginning of his speech he mentions “priorities”. Clearly the shooting was not a priority to him.

FB is such a great vehicle for political outreach to college kids. They are the ones the libs are targeting once again for 2012. We need to get the truth out to these indoctrinated kids. We missed the boat on this last election big time.

What a disgrace he is. People were shot and died today in a massacre at an American Army fort and you would think it was common based on the amount of concern Obama showed. Is he on something?

He’s already been asked by a 60 Minutes interviewer “Are you punch drunk?”

It was a slaughter, and he didn’t even give a clue that it was.

This is a new low even for this weasel.
2 1/2 minutes of pandering to Native Americans,
before he can be bothered to mention the REAL news,
the “tragic shooting” at Ft. Hood, and OF COURSE, he’s bereft of details on that.
