Trust me when I tell you this… the “B” team is a smoke and mirrors distraction, their “A” team is also here, and they are as subtle and crafty as the Serpent in the Garden of Eden was. If you are not very careful, while you are looking at the obvious trolls, the really dangerous ones are stabbing you in the back.

The “A” team trolls seem just like conservatives and patriots right up until they gently offer small compromises or discourage certain idea’s. They are very very difficult to ferret out. They are the Palin haters, the TEA Party dismissers, the Birth certificate mockers. They are very very sneaky and subtle.

I cannot understand why almost everyone here even replies to trolls, its foolishness. They want to feel they’ve angered and upset ppl, why would anyone fall for that?

They respond to the trolls because it is good sport.

bloggless on November 6, 2009 at 9:15 AM

They respond because they have no self-control or maturity, apparently.

beachgirlusa on November 6, 2009 at 9:16 AM

I never, however, heard Bush’s patriotism, humanity or concern for the victims questioned, however, and the jeers never reached the level of viciousness you see on the right over this incident.

And, pro forma, very different situations on a lot of levels.

Bleeds Blue on November 6, 2009 at 6:56 AM

Are you kidding me?!! Van Jones was forced to resign from the Obama administration, because he — like many on the left — believed Bush was directly involved in 911. Or did you miss Michael Moore’s Oscar-winning documentary? You’ve hit a new low today… and so has your President.

Our military getting killed on our soil (en masse), at a military base by a terrorist, trumps a conference…Oh I forgot, our Muslim president was just being politically correct.

Nalea on November 6, 2009 at 9:23 AM

He is a disgusting human being. What Commander in Chief would act this way on such news?!

JellyToast on November 5, 2009 at 10:48 PM

A Muslim one.

labrat on November 6, 2009 at 9:25 AM

The man has true hate in his heart. I have yet to feel like he has shown any love or compassion for his country or for the fight for freedom.

He is one very cold, calculating, heartless community communist organizer.

As someone might have pointed out in this thread already, a comment at Ace clarified that Joe Medicine Crow never won a Medal of Honor. He won a Presidential Medal of Freedom and a Congressional Gold Medal, and he did win a Bronze Star for his service with the 103rd Infantry Division in World War II. But never a Medal of Honor. Then again, I wouldn’t expect the fool in office to know the difference… none of those medals have his picture on them.

flyoverboy on November 6, 2009 at 9:25 AM

He hates this country. Why did he give a “shout out” to the Native American veteran before consoling the families of the victims? Because he sees this tragedy as a victory for those who think this country has stolen from minorities and must be “remade” into a socialist utopia.

chunderroad on November 6, 2009 at 9:34 AM

I think that Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan and Barack Hussein Obama (aka Barry Soetero) have many similarities;
They appear to be stable individuals on the surface; But turmoil is boiling up in their heads. This type of person exacts their revenge on what they consider, the “enemy”, at some point.
I’m waiting for Obama to start shouting “Allahu Akbar” any day now.

Caper29 on November 6, 2009 at 9:45 AM

We understand. It’s difficult to be somber when you’d rather be yelling, “Allah Akhbar”. This is the most vile, digusting, repulsive POSP ever to be elected to the office.

royzer on November 6, 2009 at 9:53 AM

It didn’t go unnoticed! Chicago no less. Many people there very much dislike OK hate this guy and OKRA. My silly step daughter lives there and is a brainwashed public educated Democrat who can’t stand either of these too hippocritical race hustlers!

Has anyone in the MSM even acknowledged “the shoutout?” It wasn’t on ABC Network News last night.

james23 on November 6, 2009 at 9:58 AM

If the killer had been a deranged Christian evangelist who shouted “praise the Lord” before offing a dozen soldiers, you can guarantee a different response.

dhunter on November 6, 2009 at 10:27 AM

The non-Fox media (and Bill Hemmer, of course) is in full dhimmi mode. So far this morning, I have heard that:

- he suffers from PTSD,
- he was stressed by his coming deployment to the war zone,
- he was streesed by dealing with returning vets who all presumably suffer from PTSD,
- the soldiers all did wonderful, amazing work supporting one another (wtf?),
- he is “very devout” (that particular report didn’t specify devout of what).

No jihad. None of the incriminating statements. No Allahu Ackbar! Very muddled reporting on his Muslim faith.

Just a psychiatrist with “emotional issues” and a lot of job stress. He probably just needed a couple weeks out at Martha’s Vinyard with the media millionaires. Some Chardonnay, a nice baked brie, long walks on the seashore, maybe some sailing.

Horrific violence.

Jaibones on November 6, 2009 at 10:34 AM

You can almost hear the nitwits at Good Morning America:

“Oy…stress? Tell me about it! My producer is one commercial overrun from mass murder herself!”

Jaibones on November 6, 2009 at 10:36 AM

Hadn’t heard any part of his statement until a radio report this morning on the way into work, which did not include this shout-out business. But just the statement itself was rote and nonchalant, and as always, noticibly casual when it comes to situations that grab the rest of us by the throat. Guy can’t even work up pseudo-concern. I’d say it’s pathological but that’d still be giving him the benefit of the doubt, which I, for one, got tired of doing as long time ago (predated his election, or should I say, ascencion.) He’s not on our side. It’s getting to be too obvious.

curved space on November 6, 2009 at 10:43 AM

National disgrace.

TN Mom on November 6, 2009 at 10:46 AM

Dhunter, thanks, yu got to it before me. I am still sitting here stunned by this president’s callousness.

ChicagoBlues on November 6, 2009 at 11:03 AM

What a disgusting creature the snake in the White House is.

He is completely amoral.

He and his enablers are delighted to have this new wonderful distraction from his Health Scare and the country’s skyrocketing unemployment.

notagool on November 6, 2009 at 11:07 AM

Trolls All of the top tier conservatives are being hit by trolls. This is what Soros’ dollars are buying, and of course, lots of advertising in the socialistic rags to keep them afloat.

Soros should receive the same treatment terrorist fundraisers receive – incarcerate him and freeze his assets.

eaglesdontflock on November 6, 2009 at 11:10 AM

curved space on November 6, 2009 at 10:43 AM

Of course — I also recognized it a long time ago. I’d gone to school with people just like him — the high-functioning passive-aggressive leftists with that veneer of Socratic “coolness.” These types have just rarely entered into politics — leftists are normally ragged and undisciplined creatures, and the strains of hiding one’s ideology as required in mainstream politics are unbearable. But Obama has passivity and deflection down cold, and as such is probably a deeply pathological case in the sense of the latent, tamped-down hate.

rrpjr on November 6, 2009 at 11:10 AM

With all the comments already I may be adding to others, but I was disappointed that Obama had taken time to transfer his comments to the TOTUS, and was, as always, simply reading the scroll as it went by. Always the conniver, always the false promise of honesty, always the Chicago politician. Always.

MarkT on November 6, 2009 at 11:13 AM

O’s Lack of class during this horrible time of grief is
soooo telling . But not unexpected.

I’m tempted to say something way off color but will hold my tongue. Again ! ! !

Must be Obama’s crack team of researchers at work again: Austrian-speak, iPod of his speeches, 57 states, I see dead veterans on Veteran’s day, no meddling in Iran, Souix City or Souix Falls,wrong region DVD’s, bowing to the Saudi king, hugging and touching the Queen of England, New York City photo op, New York City date night, pizza flown in from St. Louis, White House Garden miracle grown lettuce, Chicago Olympic’s lost…..

What a disgusting leader for America vs. the grace of George Bush.

Is this cold fish from Manchuria or something?

joedoe on November 6, 2009 at 12:51 PM

I see the same team at work on every newspaper website, every major conservative site. The very mention of Palin (no matter what the context) gets a comment with the talking point “Quitter”, “Dumb”, “Cheerleader”, “a person who could not even keep her daughters legs together” etc. The trouble is that these responses are so canned and false, delivered without context or proof, that anyone paying attention knows they are false. The intention of these robotic attacks is not to persuade but to drain confidence, to sow doubt. Plus it is everywhere, Sports sections, Amazon book reviews, Magazine commentaries, hobby websites and of course political websites like Hot Air.

GunRunner on November 6, 2009 at 12:52 PM

That was a rough 5 min. clip for me. I had to glance over at the time left every now and then.
As much as I despise and detest the Man-Child, president Bush would have probably pissed me off even more by mumbling something about ‘the religion of peace’.

cjk on November 6, 2009 at 1:10 PM

The most challenged administration in my lifetime.

I think we should send them all to plum island to practice…

and then there are the troglodites

Sonosam on November 6, 2009 at 1:15 PM

This was one of the most disgusting displays I have ever seen.

I saw it live and I just kept staring at the television in disbelief, wondering “when the **** are you going to say something??”

This man is despicable.

Got an ugly stain? SHOUT it OUT. Can we do this to the stain currently on the White House?

This is the lowest of the low things I have seen this creature do in his very long year in office. And that’s saying a lot.

leftnomore on November 6, 2009 at 6:07 PM

I am seriously struggling with my Christian command to not hate. I am pushed to the limit over this punk and his girlfriend Pelosi. God forgive me if I rejoice if either of those two meet a premature demise.
