They're comfortable using the "T" word when the perp is a non-Moslem.

Holder is jumping up and down....."Yeh, at last...It's a white guy who's not a muzzie"....maybe.

I say he was a secret muzzie. Remember, the event is DIRECTLY against the USA.

Every person on that base symbolizes the US government.
