BHO's Initial Response to 9/11

The New Yorker's lengthy new piece on B. Hussein reveals his initial reaction to September 11. In a speech given a few days after the horrific terrorist atrocities, Obama makes excuses for the perpetrators, comes to the defense of Muslims, and implies that more American taxpayers' money should be flushed down the Middle East and showered upon people throughout the world to whom it doesn't belong:

The essence of this tragedy, it seems to me, derives from a fundamental absence of empathy on the part of the attackers: an inability to imagine, or connect with, the humanity and suffering of others […which usually…] grows out of a climate of poverty and ignorance, helplessness and despair. […]
We will have to be unwavering in opposing bigotry or discrimination directed against neighbors and friends of Middle Eastern descent. Finally, we will have to devote far more attention to the monumental task of raising the hopes and prospects of embittered children across the globe — children not just in the Middle East, but also in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe and within our own shores.

These are not quite the priorities you would look for from a chief executive while this was still smoking:

Some will remember how humiliating it was to have the useless liberal rag Jimmy Carter in the White House when Iran invaded our embassy. The sniveling socialist post turtle Obama impersonating a President when the next 9/11 is inflicted will be a thousand times worse.

Obama: 9/11 Attack The Result Of Attackers' "Fundamental Absence Of Empathy"
— DrewM
The New Yorker (http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2008/07/21/080721fa_fact_lizza?printable=true) has a big article on Obama. I haven't read it all yet but there are some interesting excerpts out there already. (http://thepage.time.com/2008/07/13/claim-obama-told-fellow-legislator-in-97-im-going-to-kick-your-ass/)
Here's Obama from a 9/19/01 speech.
We must also engage, however, in the more difficult task of understanding the sources of such madness. The essence of this tragedy, it seems to me, derives from a fundamental absence of empathy on the part of the attackers: an inability to imagine, or connect with, the humanity and suffering of others. Such a failure of empathy, such numbness to the pain of a child or the desperation of a parent, is not innate; nor, history tells us, is it unique to a particular culture, religion, or ethnicity. It may find expression in a particular brand of violence, and may be channeled by particular demagogues or fanatics. Most often, though, it grows out of a climate of poverty and ignorance, helplessness and despair. We will have to make sure, despite our rage, that any U.S. military action takes into account the lives of innocent civilians abroad. We will have to be unwavering in opposing bigotry or discrimination directed against neighbors and friends of Middle Eastern descent. Finally, we will have to devote far more attention to the monumental task of raising the hopes and prospects of embittered children across the globe—children not just in the Middle East, but also in Africa, Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe and within our own shores.
I guess my thought that the attacks were carried by evil thugs in furtherance of a murderous ideology would be viewed as insufficiently nuanced by Obama.
It seems, at least from this excerpt, that from the start Obama viewed 9/11 as a call to engage in global social work. I have to admit, 8 days after September 11th those weren't exactly my concerns and not really the priorities I'd want in any President faced with that situation. Also from this article...As a state Senator, Obama threatened to kick the ass of a fellow Senator.

So we firebombed muslims at random and tried our damnest to violate their religious sensibilities?

Face it, the fuckers who became militant because of our actions were cousin-fuckers who wanted a reason to be violent dicks. We bent over backwards to accommodate their sensibilities and if they want to bitch we ought to cut them down.

Also Obama completely fucked the goat on this one. The guys who performed 9-11 were well educated middle-class to wealthy Arabs who never spent a day being oppressed. The people crying "we're creating terrorists" are people who look for a reason to complain about Americas foreign policy without regards to the truth.

Clinton was made to look like a hero because the economic decision made by fucking REAGAN had finally taken a hard core effect on the economy just in time for the .com boom of the 90s. Who pushed to get the internet declassified in 1989? I'll let you do your own research on who was President then.

Clinton played the sax on Arsenio, got elected by the brotha's, and now we're seeing the hard core economic after-shocks, and guess what, there's another DNC candidate running on the platform of playing sax on Arsenio and not having a fucking thing to say.

Religious wack-jobs got Bush elected because of Monica Lewinsky and family values, blah blah, we hate Bush too.

So thats what ya got? One article from 2005?

OFCOURSE an invasion of their country raised their recruitment numbers.

Enlistment numbers for the military went up after Pearl Harbor and also after 9/11.
On 30 June 1941, the Marine Corps had 3,642 officers and 41,394 enlisted Marines, and was expanding at the rate of 2,000 enlistments a month. After Pearl Harbor, the enlistments exploded with 8,500 in December 1941, 13,000 in January 1942, and 10,000 in February. By June of that year, the strength of the Marine Corps had more than tripled.
And thats just the marines.


I doubt Alqueda and other groups had anywhere near those numbers. But out of fear of a slight increase in terrorist recruitment we should just sit back and do nothing?

I like Obama's stance on the war. (My number one concern, even though most Americans say its the economy). He is a dem who is for ending the war, cautiously, but ending it. (And no, he didn't flip flop on his stance. He always said the same thing). I feel as though a lot of our internal problems in the states have to do with us being in this war and I want our people home. A cautious removal but a removal none the less.

McCain is a republican who has no plan whatsoever in ending it. (Even though THEY are asking for a time plan). I honestly am afraid of McCain with his finger bitterly on the button. (I am one of THOSE many vets against McCain and Bush and so are a lot of my x squadron mates)



The other main reason I like him is his strength in the understanding of the economy and McCain's lack of. I don't trust McCain's people since they are pretty much Bush people knock off's. It aint workin..

As far as just voting dem, I would have had to checked out who was the front runner. It would have come down to voting for them, or not voting this time out. There is no way in hell I would have jumped parties to vote for McCain. Like I said, when I was still in the Navy, we had many (unofficially of course) meetings about uh, things and my mind was made up...no more Bush and McCain represents Bush in every single way by the way he voted.

I have a hard time voting for a guy who voted for this war. I know a lot of people say, well, it was a lie, and a mistake but we are there. I feel as though McCain would do it again.

If you think President Clinton, or any other single President before, created our current economic situation, you are living on Earth 2.

Our current economic problem, more so than anything else, is caused by the incredibly weak dollar caused by overspending. Look at the non-rise in oil prices against the Euro. Oil hasn't become that much more expensive, it's just that our dollar doesn't buy as much of it.

You know what causes devaluation of the dollar? OVERSPENDING by the government. You know what politician in Washington has ever done one thing to cut spending? Not a single fucking one of them.

McCain's the lesser of the evils. Educate your fucking pot head followers or we'll do it for you. We just use harsher words and don't care about your feelings.

The sheer idiocy of this statement stands on its own. Why don't you just squint into the camera and say "Bring it on"?

So thats what ya got? One article from 2005?

The article is based on a comprehensive study over the years since 9/11 conducted by agents of the CIA. Furthermore, they have continually updated their findings since then and have confirmed my statement over and over again. Our actions are creating terrorists.

OFCOURSE an invasion of their country raised their recruitment numbers.

"Their" country? Iraq wasn't Al-Queda's country until we invaded and deposed the #1 factor holding down terrorism in that region of the world.

Hussein certainly wasn't our buddy, but his brutal rule did a good job keeping terrorists at bay.

And I don't see how your point refutes mine. Frankly, it seems to be confirming it.

I doubt Alqueda and other groups had anywhere near those numbers. But out of fear of a slight increase in terrorist recruitment we should just sit back and do nothing?

If the alternative to invading Iraq for no reason was doing nothing, than yes, we should have done nothing. Why did we invade Iraq again? Oh, right, no one knows.

You know who might be a good person to ask? This friend of mine. Growing up he was a really smart guy. Patrol leader of my patrol in scouts. Made Eagle Scout. Captain of the soccer team at my high school. National Honor Society. Graduated from Pitt summa cum laude. Pretty smart guy. He was in the military and understood all this Army strategy stuff - an officer even. Yeah, he'd be great to ask.

Oh, wait, you can't ask him... Because he's dead. (http://iraqnam.blogspot.com/2007/02/mark-resh-remembered.html) His Apache was shot down in Iraq. For what? NOTHING. FUCKING NOTHING. A clinically retarded President who got his panties in a bunch and had to beat his chest because some saber-rattling despot in the Middle East who had absolutely no means to hurt us threatened to hurt his widdle old daddy.

War is not something to be done lightly. If you now support or ever supported this war, you are a insanely stupid douche and should die, and that includes fuckface McCain.

For the third time...

On September 12, 2007 in front of HIS crowd:

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama is calling for the immediate withdrawal of all U.S. combat brigades from Iraq, with the pullout being completed by the end of next year.

"Let me be clear: There is no military solution in Iraq and there never was," Obama said in excerpts of the speech provided to The Associated Press.

"The best way to protect our security and to pressure Iraq's leaders to resolve their civil war is to immediately begin to remove our combat troops. Not in six months or one year — now," the Illinois senator says.
Ok...IMMEDIATE withdrawl and he even emphasizes not in the near future or in a couple days...no...NOW!

ONLY 14 days later DURING a nationally televised debate:

The leading Democratic White House hopefuls conceded Wednesday night they cannot guarantee to pull all U.S. combat troops from Iraq by the end of the next presidential term in 2013.
The debate, moderated by NBC’s Tim Russert, was broadcast on MSNBC (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3096434/).
"I think it's hard to project four years from now," said Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois in the opening moments of a campaign debate in the nation's first primary state.

Sooooooo, now he can't guarantee an immediate withdrawl of troops and can't even guarantee ALL troops will be home in four years. Big difference!

23 days later in front of HIS crowd:

Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama says he'd immediately order U.S. troops to return from Iraq if he's elected president.
The Illinois senator also told a crowd of about 5,000 at Arizona State University that he'd rely on diplomacy to deal with tensions in the region.

Ok, now he's back in front of a huge crowd of his supporters...and now he's back on the immediate withdrawl kick.

1 day later, same rhetoric in front of HIS supporters:

On the Iraq war, Obama said he hopes President Bush will withdraw U.S. troops before the end of his presidency.
“We can’t wait 15 months, because too many of our young men and women are dying. We can’t wait 15 months, because we’re spending $10 billion to $12 billion every single month that could be spent on college scholarships, that could be spent on health care, that could be spent on infrastructure, that could be spent on clean energy,” Obama said, his voice rising.
More of the same...

8 1/2 months later before the press and all Americans:

“I’ve always said that the pace of withdrawal would be dictated by the safety and security of our troops and the need to maintain stability. That assessment has not changed,” he said. “And when I go to Iraq and have a chance to talk to some of the commanders on the ground, I’m sure I’ll have more information and will continue to refine my policies.”…

“My 16-month timeline, if you examine everything that I’ve said, was always premised on making sure that our troops were safe,” he said. “I said that based on the information that we had received from our commanders that one to two brigades a month could be pulled out safely, from a logistical perspective. My guiding approach continues to be that we’ve got to make sure that our troops are safe and that Iraq is stable.”
Ok, he's now addressing the American people and the press and he's again not sure about the immediate withdrawl of troops when he becomes President, even going as far as saying that he is being misstated.

I honestly do not know what to tell you if you still think the man has always said the same EXACT thing regarding the Iraq war. Because here are his quotes from this past year. And they are not even close to being the same. And yet you wonder why people don't take you seriously.

Exactly. And, it's only going to be compounded if something gets done pre-election time to bring down gas prices, etc.

Shit, Sinn... you broke up the rare quadruple-post.

The sheer idiocy of this statement stands on its own. Why don't you just squint into the camera and say "Bring it on"?

Obviously you are a homosexual! See how I rebutted your comment by calling into the record your cock-hoarding ways. Ergo I win. Better luck next time.

Now you call me a tool and we can continue this again.

Or you can actually argue your case.

Look at the non-rise in oil prices against the Euro.

I'm willing to bet you didn't actually look up the facts. Want to know why I'm sure? Because I did look them up.

Now...want to rethink your argument? Hey, sometimes it's okay to assume. But it's always best to back down when you get your ass handed to you with facts.

"Their" country? Iraq wasn't Al-Queda's country until we invaded and deposed the #1 factor holding down terrorism in that region of the world.

Let's break this down. He said terrorism. You say AQ. You're both right...but you're still the asshole in this argument because you intentionally limited the scope of his statement in an attempt to prove him wrong. Saddam funded terrorism. Mainly terrorists who attacked Western pro-US targets. You may not see the forest for the trees but if your girlfriend is sucking cocks for heroin you don't rebut the taunts with "she hasn't sucked any cocks for crack!" You just come off as a tard.

None of my friends or old ROTC classmates died in Iraq. I don't have their blood to wipe on my shirt to rebut your bloody shirt. God willingly, they'll all make it back stateside okay though.
