Cheney, daughter of former vice president Dick Cheney, said the remark "suggests an alarming fatalism on the part of President Obama and his administration."
Here's the full statement:
"Americans expect our President to do everything possible to defend the nation from attack. We expect him to use every tool at his disposal to find, defeat, capture and kill terrorists. We expect him to deter attacks by making clear to our adversaries that an attack on the United States will carry devastating consequences. Instead, President Obama is reported to have said, 'We can absorb a terrorist attack.' This comment suggests an alarming fatalism on the part of President Obama and his administration. Once again the President seems either unwilling or unable to do what it takes to keep this nation safe. The President owes the American people an explanation."

“We can absorb a terrorist attack.”
The quintessential liberal-so long as it’s someone else’s money and someone else’s blood.
He’s entirely detached.
Of course this is from Woodward so it has dubious integrity.
‘We can absorb a terrorist attack
Lets see how well the Democrats absorb the BOOT IN THE REAR from the American People in November! And Barry does in 2012...
I have NO doubts whatsoever that should this great nation once again be attacked by Islamic fundamentalists, this proud leader of our Republic will search HIGH and he will search LOW and he shall leave NO STONE unturned in order to find out....
Who to apologize to for whatever the United States did to deserve said attack. For realz, he might even bow and kiss a ring or two.
For the CIC to say this he must have knowledge of the type of attack he is discussing? What does he know?
For him to make this statement, he must know it is not something like an incurable weaponized disease.
Unless, that is, he is just making it up as he goes along.
No, the Pres__ent owes the American People a resignation IMHO, while Congress owes the American People an Impeachment of this POS.
I cannot believe the mouthpiece for Obama have talking points at all much less this quickly...
The Obama mouthpiece is saying only right wingers are concerned about this. The MSM better not ratchet up talking points for their false savior.

Wow! Good for Liz.
***Of course this is from Woodward so it has dubious integrity.***
Woodward would see nothing wrong with this comment - and why he left it in the manuscript - that’s what makes it authentic.
And we’re building a mosque right near ground zero to prove I’m right.....
Well said.
LOVE the picture couldn’t have said it better myself!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama also lied through his teeth. While campaigning he said many times that we are going to “win” in Afghanstan. But once he became president, he only wants to end the war immediately, without victory.
Good for her!
***“We can absorb a terrorist attack.”***
Rules of Engagement from a CIC!
Unbelievable that a President, a father, a husband would be prepared to absorb an attack rather than take a pre-emptive strike?????
How many dead children?
Oh Liz, I’m beyond wanting an explanation: I want a RESIGNATION!
So why is the POTUS putting up curtains on an EXIT window. (it ain’t a door)
Also, this A-hole says we can absorb a terrorist attack. What makes him think they will stop at 1 (one) attack? they will hit us again and again if they can ... until he says ‘uncle’ and asks us to understand and negotiate terms with them.
