Thank you!

[Brown Deer]

the call to serve their comrades

[SE Mom]

A gunman? A GUNMAN???

OMG.

[tina07]

no, you are not. Hillary was doing it the other day too, sickening.

[freepersup]

It’s inappropriate as hell because the CIC is speaking as if it were an auto accident that killed these individuals. Oh wow, there’s a rise in voice inflection. Such empathy. Such drama. It’s contrived and I don’t like it.

[offduty]

I zm convinced that Casey was told not to say anything about Islam or the Muslim faith by Gates. I was watching him closely and he looked either emotionally broken up or pissed (fine line) I thought he got some digs into Obama at the very beginning of his speech. His manner of speech was fairly forceful. I’ll bet O put out the word that he would be the one to mention murderous acts. Again, he didn’t want someone else to steal his thunder. One last point, Obama didn’t write his speech, Casey did. FWIW

[Sparko]

Obama:

“It may be hard to comprehend the twisted logic that led to this tragedy but this much we do know, no faith justifies these murderous and craven acts”

“these are trying times for our country”

[tioga]

were the women military?

[Sarah Barracuda]

He won’t call him a terrorist, because if he does, it would be the first terrorist attack since 9/11..and it would be on HIS hands because it happened on HIS watch, can’t blame bush anymore

[centexan]

This is a memorial service to the fallen and the wounded. They are my friends and neighbors. Can y'all please knock it off at least on this thread?

[a fool in paradise]

The victims of the 9/11 attacks were ALSO taken in vain.

The NYPD, NYFD, citizens, and clergy who died on 9-11 while attending to the victims did not die in vain. THEY gave their lives for their fellow man trying to save and give last rights to as many as they could.

[Tennessee Nana]

Excusing the Islamic Terrorist...

“Due process for the “gunman”

[Dinah Lord]

He is just making me sick.

[potlatch]

Yes, several have said that was it. Thanks.

[smokingfrog]

Difficult to understand the logic?

There was no logic here. Just hate from an evil man!

[a fool in paradise]

I think they deserve the same compensation that the families of 9/11 got. Think that’ll happen?

I think that this attack by a member of the antiwar movement should be remembered as long as the Kent State shootings have been.

[swheats]

I try not to listen to him as much as possible. He says what’s expedient but not the truth.

[Ronbo1948]

They all deserve Purple Hearts because this massacre was Islamic terrorist related, but little Barry won’t call it an act of war...just the work of a “gunman.”

[tiredoflaundry]

I'm sorry but this is getting me so mad!!

Hey *O* they were killed & wounded by a Mother f****** Terrorist!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DallasSun]

Thank you. I am going to go with that. I certainly hope so.
