Krauthammer Says Obama Talks About Terrorists as if they are "Disgruntled Postal Workers" - Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | January 9, 2010 | Brian

Posted on 01/09/2010 6:56:57 AM PST by Federalist Patriot

Here is video of Charles Krauthammer on Special Report last night where he said many Americans are uneasy about President Obama's "demeanor and language" when talking about the threat we face in the "War on Terror." Krauthammer said Obama talks as if "he's giving a police report" when he talks about terrorism.

Krauthammer said Obama uses words like "suspect," "alleged attack," "isolated extremist," as if he's talking about a "disgruntled postal worker." It took Obama a "5th attempt" (following the attempted terror attack on Northwest Flight 253) before he actually used the language of us being in a "War on Terror." . . . (VIDEO)

He only used the War on Terror phrase to pacify the majority.

Doesn't matter...Nothing that comes out of his mouth equates to love of country, protection of our citizens. It's all about PC.

If it wasn't, that crud would be tried by a military tribunal...AT GUANTANAMO.

So why a Federal Court??? Because, if found guilty, and sentenced to death, Obama would have to sign it. You think a born and raised Muslim is gonna sign that??

So, it's all about "clean hands"....aka....PC.

“He only used the War on Terror phrase to pacify the majority.”

Axelrod must have gotten focus group results that showed Cheney’s war on terror criticism stung the Kenyan. The next set of polls should show how badly the Kenyan was hurt.

Where have you been Charles? This is not new and I'm surprised he used the phrase even once.

No More War On Terror
February 2, 2009
Since taking office less than two weeks ago, President Barack Obama has talked broadly of the “enduring struggle against terrorism and extremism.” Another time it was an “ongoing struggle.”
[snip]
But only once since his Jan. 20 inauguration has Obama publicly strung those three words together into the explosive phrase that coalesced the country during its most terrifying time and eventually came to define the Bush administration.

'Global War On Terror' Is Given New Name
Bush's Phrase Is Out, Pentagon Says
Wednesday, March 25, 2009
The Obama administration appears to be backing away from the phrase "global war on terror," a signature rhetorical legacy of its predecessor.
[snip]
..."this administration prefers to avoid using the term 'Long War' or 'Global War on Terror' [GWOT.] Please use 'Overseas Contingency Operation.' "
[snip]
Last month, the International Commission of Jurists urged the Obama administration to drop the phrase "war on terror." The commission said the term had given the Bush administration "spurious justification to a range of human rights and humanitarian law violations," including detention practices and interrogation methods that the International Committee of the Red Cross has described as torture.

Clinton: 'War on terror' not in our vocabulary
Obama administration dropping phrase used as rallying cry by Bush
AP Associated Press
updated 6:37 p.m. ET, Mon., March. 30, 2009
The top U.S. diplomat told reporters Tuesday that the Obama administration has quit using that line to describe the effort to fight terrorism around the world.

"The administration has stopped using the phrase and I think that speaks for itself," Clinton said.


You got that right, Hillary -- it certainly does speak for itself. 14 dead and dozens injured...plot to kill 100's of Americans thwarted -Not by the administration- but by an inept bungling jihadist and brave American passengers...another plot thwarted...

Yessiree bob! It speaks VOLUMES!

Yup. One boom, doom.

W prevented another 9/11 for 7 years. The Kenyan has a terrorist attack weekly.

I think the Kenyan’s crew thought that he could survive politically if batches of terrorists casualties were spread out.

This is like expecting Santa Claus to come down hard on elves.

They're his peeps, his homies, his umma. They do his work for him while he soaks up the fame.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
