WXIX-TV in Cincinnati said Christopher Lee Cornell called it from the Kentucky jail where he’s being held, confessed to being a supporter of the Islamic State group and said he planned to kill government officials in retaliation for U.S. strikes on the militant organization. […]

Nothing particularly stupid about how Obama has been doing all his subversion. The man is malicious rather than stupid.

In this case, we will make an exception. A haircut, a shave, and then a job.

Never overlook an opportunity to keep your big mouth shut.

Loose lips sink ships.

“suspect says he would’ve shot President Obama”.......

He would have been waiting in a long line would be my guess.

Right now I would take Biden hands down over this Muslim traitor we have.

Biden would hang hisself in about a week. Hell, he would provide the rope and tree.

Doesn’t Cornell know that Obama has been supporting the Islamists with money, guns and lawyers for years?

I’m glad he failed. The only thing worse than two more years under this evil, anti-American bigot would be turning Obama into a martyr and making it even harder to repeal his destructive legacy.

A martyr for whom? If it’s a Muslim that actually does him in, it destroys the liberal narrative utterly.

No...he needs to be out of mommy and daddys house...grow up and be a man... not some flunky mooching off his parents so he can spend hours online searching for a false sense of purpose and reality.
