All the dates say is that some moron made up a story in 2009. So what?

So you're quite sure that this completely uncorroborated, incredulous story is simply because it was posted in 2009? And you think this is actually intelligent reasoning?

How can you disprove made-up claims by idiots?

I can post up a blog claiming that I caused Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes to divorce because I called and emailed her and told her that it was a bad idea, after which she called me back and said, "thanks, I NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT." Does that make it true? Can you disprove it?

What you don't understand is that any idiot can post any story on the internet these days, and it doesn't matter if it's 2009 or 2012. The way this kind of stuff is disproved is by exercising common sense and critical thinking, which is obviously not your forte. This is about as believable as those email chain letters that idiots would send me back in high school.

This morning I met with FBI Director Mueller and the relevant agencies to discuss their ongoing investigation into what caused one individual to turn his gun on fellow servicemen and women. We don't know all the answers yet and I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all the facts.

What we do know is that there are families, friends and an entire nation grieving right now for the valiant men and women who came under attack yesterday in one of the worst mass shootings ever to take place on an American military base. So from now until Veterans Day I've ordered the flags at the White House and other federal buildings to be flown at half-staff.
The racists who post to internet forums work overtime to post false reports and lies about the President They get so excited the white sheets draped over their heads start to slip ... and we see who's behind. Thanks for posting your clarifying information.

Yes, because showing condolences for a tragedy is such a bad thing.

No staging for it is. Just like Romney did.

Obama did it, so of course it's bad.

He's a monster for showing some sympathy, just like he was a monster for not showing sympathy after Ft. Hood, except that he did, but let's not let that get in the way. He clearly only cared about that after some random person called up the White House.

Or something.

Keeping up with the irrational hatred for Barack Obama is kind of difficult. Just remember this, whatever he does is awful, and on the off chance that he does something good, accuse him of having to have his arm twisted by random people, despite there being zero evidence at all to support such a claim.

Atlas Shrugs is a pretty damned reliable source.

And OF COURSE you think THey were PSYCHIC too huh?

You've failed to show ANYTHING to back up your claim that this is a fabricated story...thanks for confirming that.

You cannot show that Obama or his advisers came-up with the idea on their own AND you've failed to show that Mrs. Ross didn't shame them into it.

Please let me know when you have PROOF to back up the false accusations.
