With Navy Yard shooters still at large, Obama warns of 'extreme wing' Republicans
Washington Examiner ^ | 09/16/2013 | Charlie Spiering

After briefly addressing the tragic Navy Yard shootings, President Obama delivered a sharply partisan message to Republicans on Monday, while two individuals connected with the attack were still at large in Washington, D.C.

Obama warned of an "extreme wing" of the Republican party that was willing to shutdown the government over Obamacare.

Obama delayed his speech by about 50 minutes after news of the attack broke Monday morning, but pressed forward with his full remarks in the South Court Auditorium of the White House.

"The larger point is asked — after all that we have been through, after all the work to come back from the depths of a crisis, are some of these folks really still beholden to one extreme wing of the party that they are willing to take the entire economy just because they cannot get their way on this issue?" Obama asked. "Are they really willing to hurt people just to score political points?"

“How in the world are the shooters still at large at this point?”

The shooter posted a ‘mosque inside’ sign on the door so LEO cannot proceed.

Classic Øbongo. If he couldn’t be a complete shiite-head he wouldn’t know what do do with himself.

.... if we look at past performance, it’s the highest probability.

Another islam related work place incident that he desperately wants to mask.

Based on probability, he is grasping. Worst part? His medias will reshape the truth.

How did we get a GHAZI (muslim) in our White House?

“Obama delayed his speech by about 50 minutes...”

***

So what else is new? Even on a good day, he's usually late. It's just that today he has an excuse.

‘President Obama delivered a sharply partisan message. . .’

I thought that he was going to start yelling at Skyler that she never supported him or his ideas...

Not one single republican, house or senate, voted for this monstrosity. They are under no obligation to support it, especially when we are already seeing the havoc the law is creating.

Maybe he ordered the shootings himself as yet another distraction.

If a Republican was in office that is exactly what the lead story from almost every media outlet and Every liberal spokeshole out there.

Many many of years went into the preparation of circumstances of a Barry Soetero being electable.

I wish my spell checker knew the name SOETERO..../s

A “black guy” who looked white enough...to ENGAGE all of the naive broken low information voters....

If he wasnt “black” he would not have been electable.

Threats of being labeled a RACIST......the secret weapon.

his “blackness” “overshadowed” EVERYTHING.

the clever evil bastards who foisted this dangerous clown on us are very long term thinkers.

By all the votes he got from incompetent idiots, most of whom voted multiple times.

Because they haven’t found someone yet to blame who fits their agenda.

He’s not going to be happy when it turns out to be a “workplace” violence situation with a single man who could be his brother (and we all know how well he cares for his brother, right?)

The larger point is that Obama is willing to destroy the economy with Obamacare.

What he is accusing the republican of doing he is doing himself. One extreme part—the Democrats—are will to destroy our economy and our health care, to score political points with their entitlement voters.

Here we have 11 people dead and this stupid Sonofabi7ch scamming for Obamacare.

...His formula is always the same: - Any opposition to him is characterized as “extreme” and said to be motivated by malice or cruelty, and never by principle...

Thanks for this well articulated and spot on critique. This ad hominem attack has been employed so often that even the sophist's supporters should be demanding that it come to an end for the sake of fair play and detoxifying our politics. Instead, the media and the Left (I repeat myself) never fail to echo the same calumny, as you rightly point out. We live in shameful times.
