This airtime for the prez is to get people tuned in to him rather than Limbaugh.

Didn't work here. Got Rush on, and reading FR accounts of what's on obomas teleprompter. I figured he'd just be spending another hour or two praising himself again anyway. I'm sure I didn't miss much.

(Whenever oboma is on FOX, my husband turns the TV right off. obomas voice makes his stomach turn.)

This was a written speech? I thought it was a filibuster. That would be giving this speech too much credit. This is horrible!

< So what is trying to accomplish with this speech? >

He’s prepping the collective populace psyche for the upcoming drone war and other aggressive behavior against terrorists who are “drifting towards violence.” There will be “consequences for those who break the law,” doncha know.

IOW, the 2.6 billion cartridges and the new DHS Gestapo and all that. He’s dressing it up all pretty-like for all the dumb-asses out there who haven’t figured out The End Game.

Yeah.. and gas up all the trucks...

I think I know what this is all about. Some ‘thug’ jihadi has made a threat, release our Gitmo colleagues or else.

POSHITUS is going to release the jihadis.

Sorry for another post, but.. He said “The Muslim community has consistently rejected terrorism”.. Really? WHEN? I want dates and times. This guy’s delusional.

I agree, but he is pushing the terrorism plot pretty hard.
Odd, ‘cause they haven’t before. Likely to be a false flag event...

Yep. Brace yourself.

Right! Nothing more than Zero attempting to change the subject from the Benghazi, IRS and 1st amendment scandals, and obfuscate and cover up the real facts of his continued failures.

“We’re going to address grievances.”
“We’re going to send money, not bomb.”
“Muslims are a part of the American family...”

Did Obozo happen to mention the Chechen Muslim who was killed by an FBI agent in Orlando yesterday, who allegedly had just copped to the triple murder in Waltham MA with big brother Tsarneav?

???”

I explained this in a post here. He wrote a document and signed it yesterday that he wouldn't use a drone if it would kill a Muslim innocent person as collateral damage. The document also says he won't kill a terrorist unless the terrorist is in an act of terrorism right then. They are free to walk anywhere in the world labeled as a terrorist but he won't attack one unless that one is in the act of terrorism right then. That's more Muslims, even if terrorists, he saves.

This is all about the document he wrote and signed yesterday.

“That pull towards extremism appears to have led to the shootings at Ft. Hood.”

If I’m not mistaken, Nixon took some flak for commenting on an ongoing trial. (Although unlike Obama, Nixon meant what he said.)
