Please..it only took him how many days to go there?? Bush and his wife were there Friday night consoling the victims..our great Commander-in-Chief sure can rush to hop a plane to Europe to try and get the Olympics for his cronies in gangster town..but can't seem to find the time to go to Germany and celebrate the fall of the Berlin wall or find the time to go and console victims of a terrorist act..what does that tell you about what this guy is made of...
I'm not an Obama fan to say the least. But this speech could have been worse. I thought he would spend more time making excuses for the killer and saying that this could have nothing to do with Islam. Instead he seems to be admitting this had terrorist elements to it and that no religion justifies it. I like that he basically said the killer will go to Hell for this.

Maybe you've been misunderstanding him the whole time.

"'It may be hard to comprehend the twisted logic that led to this tragedy. But this much we do know – no faith justifies these murderous and craven acts; no just and loving God looks upon them with favor,' Obama said. 'And for what he has done, we know that the killer will be met with justice – in this world, and the next.'
"'We are a nation that guarantees the freedom to worship as one chooses. And instead of claiming God for our side, we remember Lincoln's words, and always pray to be on the side of God,' Obama said. 'We are a nation of laws whose commitment to justice is so enduring that we would treat a gunman and give him due process, just as surely as we will see that he pays for his crimes.'"
"And he paid homage to the victims, mentioning them by name and giving a brief biographical sketch of each."
I liked his speech today as I watched, and I was glad he said what he did about this killer, it was, I hope a step in the right direction
how anyone could have watched this gut wrenching service and not be moved has a wooden heart

How long will it take til the first criticism of Obama's trip to Ft. Hood and speech appear in this forum? It's 3:10 central time. I predict we'll see the first one by 3:22.
BO started out by thanking and giving shout outs..........
What about the 13 dead soldiers??????
Isn't that odd?
I didn't get to see the entire thing but what I did see was very well done and moving.
