It's a good thing Obama made us more "likable" so stuff like this won't happen on our soil...

Kind of hard to blaim Obama on somthing like this?!?! we dont even know if it was a foreign or domestic attack yet. Remember, Timothy McVay (sp?) was a local....

Obama thinks that we need reductions in spending in the military and our national security. He thinks we're "over secure" and that our national security interests hamper our ability to better defend ourselves. Care to re-think your position?

Foreign/domestic, it doesn't matter. He wants to reduce security spending, period.

With respect, THIS is your first thought?

um...I kind of agree...to me homeland security should not exist. Their job is already supposedly being done by the FBI... 2 orginizations doing the same job is a waste of money IMO

Anger over the attack? You bet ya!

No problem with being angry, completely understandable and expected. However, considering as its too early to know anything that happened, especially what the cause was, stating that its because of Obama, or anyone else for that matter, seems rather overzealous and, IMO, wrongly placed. Perhaps the first thoughts could be something along the lines of ensuring those immediately affected are as safe as possible, stopping any further incidents and gathering evidence and facts.

I'll just leave this here for you:

Sorry, but screw your "first thoughts" they're nothing I can do anything about. I can and am pissed about what happened though, and like I said, unless it was some sort of gas-line accident (no way in hell), I have properly directed my anger.

Just wondering, if it turns out to be 'domestic terrorism' is it still Obama's fault? At this point, the only thing I'm willing to claim is that it was a nutjob.

Care you layout your case?

I'm sorry, but this is about a tragedy and not a place to go off on a political tangent. My .02

Agreed. I allowed myself to be sucked in by a previous comment; my apologies.
