Bama quote:
How about this. (CNSNews.com) – More than six years after a Muslim army major shot dead 13 people at Fort Hood, President Obama on Sunday night – for what may be the first time – publicly identified it as a terrorist attack. Gawd, the Reverend Robertson's news service! Could there be any bias there? From the Wiki article on the Ft. Hood shooting: The United States Department of Defense and federal law enforcement agencies had classified the shootings as an act of workplace violence.[10] This was changed by the Fiscal Year 2015 National Defense Authorization Act which broadened the criteria for awarding the Purple Heart to include "an attack by a foreign terrorist organization….if the attack was inspired or motivated by the foreign terrorist organization." This allowed the Army to award the Purple Heart, and its civilian equivalent, The Defense of Freedom Medal, to victims of the attack. SNIP The U.S. government declined requests from survivors and family members of the slain to categorize the Fort Hood shooting as an act of terrorism, or motivated by militant Islamic religious convictions.[14] In November 2011, a group of survivors and family members filed a lawsuit against the government for negligence in preventing the attack, and to force the government to classify the shootings as terrorism. The Pentagon argued that charging Hasan with terrorism was not possible within the military justice system and that such action could harm the military prosecutors' ability to sustain a guilty verdict against Hasan.[10] And that is the rest of the story that says your slander of Obama is bullshit. Ahhh, our first black president. Makes me proud to have voted for him . . . twice. Gave me hope that we could put our tragic past behind us. But, maybe not.
