Dan got it Right, I totally agree.

It is apparent that we have a terrorits sympathiser in the white house. He had no problem comdeming a cop for doing his job but he refuses to condem a fellow muslim for killing 13 people on an army base. Wake up people, you have let the fox into the hen house.

To Dan: Write this down so you want forget it. The man is selling our great nation out right under our noses. One meaning of ignorance is "lack of knowledge!", which I believe describes you very well! I have done extensive research on our man and have found that the man is a liar, a cheat, and a criminal! He has spent well over a million dollars to cover up anything that has to do with his past. What reason would he have to do this if he doesn't have anything to hide! The majority of Americans don't know what his agenda is, and that is the way he wants it. I'm not going to go into any of the underhanded and criminal acts he has committed because you wouldn't believe them anyway! Just remember when the walls tumble down around you, someone tried to warn you!!!!

You people are pathetic and make me ill to my stomache. You will find any angle to throw punches at the president. Hiding behind patriotism, you are a bunch of ignorant whiners!

Nobama is a narcissist, plain and simple! It's my agenda first, then I will address anything else I have too. I don't know if anyone has noticed, but I haven't heard one word from his mouth personally recognizing the heroic efforts of the two cops that took this scumbag out. I have commented twice on his recognition of the cop that arrested his RACIST professor buddy!, but, neither has been posted as of yet! He couldn't wait to condemn the cop on national news, even before he had the facts! Now that these two officers are heroes, he can't even, at least, mention their names, and maybe comment on their valor! This probably won't be posted either, but if it is, I would like to go on record as saying: Obama, you make me sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with 1st Anon..........that whole shout out thing and making jokes was very disrepectful and showed that mentioning the shootings was not his first priority.

The idiot president had his bill to get passed, he didn't have time to come visit the wounded and their families. Yea, he promised change, alot has changed and not for the good of this country. Could it be that beside the bill he wanted passed that he didn't come because he himself is a muslim. Didn't want to face the carnage that one of his bretherin caused. Oh, I forgot, he's going to show his face at the memorial on Tuesday. Big deal, he should have been here on Friday. But, he's too busy wheeling and dealing.

You guys are pathetic, you can not hide hate behind patriotism no matter how hard you try. This is still on Bush, it is still his war. No matter what the President does you will find some way to find fault, but refuse to hold any republican accountable no matter how corrupt. Oh and by the way President Barack Obama spent nearly two hours Friday visiting wounded U.S. soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. So keep that fox noise (lies) to yourself we are not interested.

Hey Central, I have to say that I also agree with Republican and Anonymous. The reason you are saying that it's not the time for petty comments is you know that if it had been the otherway around, you would have been one of the first to say the same thing about President Bush.

No, central, now is exactly the time for such comments...In times like these we need to know that our military troops, our heros, are supported by the commander in chief. Wounds are fresh and giving a shout out before announcing the shooting was the most disrespectful thing I've seen from a US president! My prayers are with the victims and their families.

Republican this is not a time for such petty comments, the wounds are to fresh.

Gee, President Bush personally VISITS the wounded to show support and Obama talks about it on the radio?!? Let me guess right after another shout out to his peeps? Well, he did promise change....
