Discussion: Obama Rushes Through First Presidential Visit To Spain To Return Home

A shame he had to cut his trip short. Did he at least have time enough to bow to King Felipe VI?

Before he left Poland, President Obama gave an hour-long press conference in which he answered questions about Europe, ongoing conflicts around the world, the recent shootings in the US, globalism and trade, and his legacy. It was a wide-ranging exchange and showed off Obama’s fluency with various issues

How is Dallas not terrorism?

Because the shooter was not Muslim or a member of ISIS. If he had been the cries of Obama being weak against terrorism would have been ranted by the GOP. Of course Obama got blamed by many law enforcement organizations anyway…

It seems to me more a twisted act of revenge than a true act of terrorism.

According to police, he was angry about the recent fatal shootings of black men by police and he wanted to kill white police officers. It doesn’t sound like he had a real political goal in mind or that he wanted to frighten the populace at large with his acts.

Frankly, I thought Obama looked exhausted during his speech in Warsaw. I felt bad for the guy. I kept on thinking, go get some sleep, you need it.

I think Obama is very excited about handling the baton off to Hillary and getting out. He is leaving with respect.

Fox: “Obama rushes home to incite riots!”

I listened to the whole thing on the radio while cleaning house, it was really, really good.
When he was on the topic of NATO and what is happening with that, it made me think there is definitely a strategic build up happening with something definite coming down the road on that in regards to dealing with ISIL.

Black guy.

Rules:

Muslim, or Muslim-sounding name: Terrorist! Close the borders! Start a war! DOOOO SOMETHING NOW!
Black guy: Thug; we need to get tough on crime!
White guy: Disgruntled lone wolf; there’s nothing that can be done.

My brother said this morning that the entire Middle East problem today is Obama’s fault.
It is so awful to have a bagger in the family. Ugh.

I think we have to be very careful what we label as ‘terrorism’ in the current climate, as this seems to lead to complete loss of constitutional rights and secret millitary tribunals. This isn’t something we want to encourage on US soil.
