What planet are these people on? Outrageous comments on Obama meeting in private w/ 911 families--
This is incomprehensible to me. I'm seeing the same absurd shit on facebook among my redneck relatives. I think there are freepers/republicans out there whose disdain and hate for Obama is greater than their disdain and hate for Bin Laden. This is how crazy some conservatives are (from the site that can't be named)--


This suggests that Obama is a pussy and is afraid of being seen in public. Before, all he had to worry about is racist bible-thumping gun-toting conservatives... not he has the Muslim world pissed at him too.

So he’s gonna honor 9-11 survivors by slinking off to a controlled meeting. Cringing/hiding/gutless/america hating/embarrassed/ashamed/muslim sympathizer ———

Maybe it will be private because there are not many family's that want to be seen with the Muslim after what his Muslim brothers did to their family members..I would spit in his sorry face..

He’s just trying to mimic what BUSH would do. If I were of a family who lost someone, I WOULD NOT GIVE HIM THE SATISFACTION OF ATTENDING.

How an utterly incompetent President turned the successful manhunt for the world's most wanted mass-murderer into the cover-up of the premeditated murder of an unarmed prisoner.
Only Obama could f-up a no-brainer this bad.

So now Obama is trying to copy Bush in being low-key.

(Actually, I can see why Øbozo does not want this meeting to go public. The 9/11 families will likely rip him a new one for the way he’s screwed up OBL’s death.)

2. And if he had done the exact opposite and met with the families in public...
They'd be yelling and bitching that he was politicizing 9-11.

7. Actually, they were doing just that when it was first
announced that Obama would be speaking at the WTC (it's since been announce that he won't be) and invited Bush. They were howling that it was all a publicity stunt, he's just doing it for attention, mugging for the cameras, etc.

Now they're outraged that he's meeting families privately.

17. Why won't Obama be speaking at the WTC?
Seems to me that he should.

the families. His speech on Sunday was excellent and giving another at the WTC probably isn't necessary.

Of course, depending upon which "site that must not be named" you got those from, many of the posters are likely old DU posters. Gives one pause, that.

8. I know, it's stupid. I tend to look in when big events happen and certain members of my family
are saying and posting absurd things on facebook or sending out equally bizarre emails.

It only upsets me--how illogical and simplistic their thought process is.

13. And if he did it in public they'd say he's "taking a victory lap at ground zero."
Can't worry about the rants of crazy people.

14. That's crazy
And yes, there are many who despise Obama more than bin Laden.

While I hate to imply that many reside in the Democratic party, I've noticed that any pro-Obama thread here is immediately countered with what appears on the surface to be disdain for the man and his policies. Much of that is just good spirited debate, but I don't recall ever reading such a ton of bricks ever coming down when Bill Clinton or Carter's name is mentioned.
