Nice Weasel move, now trying to move the goalposts. The PARIS ATTACKS were commented on and specifically condemned by President Obama, when You wrongly said he did not comment on it or condemn it. STILL waiting for your UNEQUIVOCAL Apology. C''mon, step up and become a man. Seperate yourself from the usual trash and vermin down here. I KNOW you can do it.
Ok, Guesser...so you don't think it's a big deal that the Stuttering Clusterfuck couldn't be bothered to attend this rally today. Fair enough.
Tell me why he still has yet to specifically condemn -- or even comment on -- the attacks in Paris. Surely he can find a few minutes in his day to at least pretend to care? Dims love to bash GW for not doing anything within seven minutes of the planes hitting the WTC on 9-11. Why are there no cries after what, five days since the Paris attacks?
Guesser, there has been a long standing reluctance for this administration to alienate Muslims by avoiding the term Islamic Terrorism. It started in November 2009 with the Fort Hood massacre. To this day, the administration is calling it workplace violence despite the shooter, Nidal Hasan screaming the phrase "Allahu Akbar", synonymous with cowardly, deadly attacks on innocent people. I don't know how any rational, fair minded individual could not see this pattern, there are dozens of examples. Do you believe the Fort Hood massacre was a terrorist attack? Additionally, we should have had some presence at the unification March in Paris today. He sent representation to Michael Brown's funeral but couldn't bother to send a high ranking figure to represent the US? His words of condemnation sounded decent but actions would have spoken volumes. Damn, Holder was in Paris for a meeting but left right after, avoiding the protest.
I never can understand the logic of a man who would obliterate terrorists and innocent family members with drones but he won't allow physician supervised water boarding and wants his Justice Department to allow captured terrorists to be given every right of an American citizen when it comes to defending themselves. I for one will be glad when this 8 year experiment is over, no matter who wins in 2016
What does ANY of the above have to do with Obama commenting on and Specifically condemning the attacks in Paris???
We did have representation in Paris. From looking at the Actual Heads of State that attended, it seemed like a very Euro and Middle East thing in that regard. Aussie Head wasn't there, Canada's head wasn't there, Japan and China Head wasn't there. I would have preferred Obama to be there, but he would have been one of the few non Euro and ME Heads of state there, from the way it appeared.
Like Hollande Correctly said these attacks had Nothing to do with The Muslim faith, so not sure why you feel it would be incumbent on Obama to say it did?
I agree with you about his drone Policies. They are disgusting, and will lead to a whole new generation of terrorists being created specifically because of them.
I don't think O has been the best president and definitely not the worst. I think we are better off today then when he started and that's not even close. I have never seen a president be knit picked as much as Obama and it started right when he took over presidency. I would say Obama also became president at the wrong time, NOBODY was going to be overly successful no matter who was president. The divide between parties was at it's worst and the only goal of either party is to obstruct, blame, and either get elected or re elected. I wish Obama would have done two things,. Passed the Keystone Pipeline and had a better ACA, a better understanding of it, and had clamped down hard on medical costs but you can't have everything.

The United States, which considers itself to be the most important nation in the world, was not represented in this march -- arguably one of the most important public demonstrations in Europe in the last generation -- except by U.S. Ambassador Jane Hartley, who may have been a few rows back. I didn't see her. Even Russia sent Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov.

[h=1]Lupica: America betrays its values by not sending top U.S. officials to Paris unity rally[/h]
This was a day to show up and to stand up, for the kind of march about freedom and courage and principles that this country has always done better than anyone. This is what the best and most noble of our marches on Washington must have looked like to the rest of the world.

I will agree that some will criticize Obama solely because they dislike him but I think you're taking the views of a small group and attributing them to anyone who disagrees with his decision. I think it's fair to say the US should have had Kerry or Obama there to represent the US. Now, does it make Obama a shitty president or a terrorist sympathizer? No.
yup. This administration won't cross that line. Don't want to call a spade a spade? Not to inflame?
Certainly Mr Harper doesn't see it that way. That said, guess he was busy and couldn't attend,
.“The international jihadist movement has declared war,” said Prime Minister Stephen Harper.“We may not like this and wish it would go away, but it is not going to go away,” said Harper. “We’re just going to have to face that head on and deal with it.”

Harper, Abbot, Putin, Jinping, Obama should have all been there.......would've been nice. USA is The leader of The Free World. That picture i posted needed Mr.Obama IN IT.
As I said earlier, the optics of marching against his Muslims jihadi brotherhood broadcasted all over the world is something he just couldn't stomach.
Forget the meaningless boilerplate press releases condemning "terrorism" (worse than saying nothing at all), watch his speeches in the middle east, at the UN and other platforms on the world stage because that is when his real beliefs are on full display:
OBAMA DEFENDS ISLAM, SMACKS ISRAEL, AMERICAN RACISM AT UN
http://www.breitbart.com/national-se...ama-un-speech/
Modern civilization is at war with radical Islam and the fucking fraud just won't say it!

I thought your benevolent Chinese friends were in the process of taking over that role? Your friends that used this tragedy to defend "limits on free press".
