Obama's delusional political correctness

Posted June 20, 2016 1:00 am

Why is Obama unable to view the Orlando massacre as U.S. Muslims do - as an act of terror by a deranged Muslim from whom they distance themselves.

If CARE organization members of the Islamic community in America recognize this mass shooting as an act of terror backed by ISIS, why can't the POTUS. The most he could call this largest loss of life due to a shooting was an "act of hate or terror." He sounded more concerned that this happened to members of a particular minority community (therefore a "hate" crime), than as an act of international terrorism.

At least he's consistent in his delusional political correctness. Had this senseless killing murdered heterosexual Americans, would it have been a "love" crime? Mr. President, we're not a war with gay killers, as sad as that is; we're at war with a well-organized network of pseudo-Islamic terrorists out to kill Americans. Why can't you just say so? Like peace-loving Arab-Americans who practice Islam are doing around the country right now. At least he didn't co-opt this tragedy to push gun control.
