But OF COURSE It's Obama's Fault!

Salon/

As Paris carnage unfolds, conservatives lash out at Obama, immigrants and college students

Details of horrific attacks in Paris are barely starting to emerge, but conservatives have wasted no time in taking to Twitter to blame their usual targets. Reports from France indicate that Parisians are doing everything they can to protect and care for each other as this crisis unfolds. Unfortunately, these pundits and celebrities have failed to follow their example. Instead, they’re leading the vanguard of what is likely to be a very ugly backlash…

Among the intellectual giants bleating like goats on Twitter are James Woods, Newt Gingrich, Judith Miller, Matt Drudge, and David "Axis of Evil" Frum.

that he's either a RWer or a racist (hates Obama with a passion).

The others, well, they're lying RWers so who really cares what they think? Truth and facts have never been their forte.

They hate, hate, hate the rest of us so much that they blame us for the most irrational acts of violence all around the world.

They can't understand that the fringe of any group is usually the crux of the problem and that they are part of the equation.

They babble about "freedom" but when it comes to a woman's control over her own body.....not so much freedom.

Can't stand them.

allow a bunch of pushy assed reporters to push him into making commitments beyond what he's already doing. I've listened to this tragedy unfold, and like everything else, the US has placed itself squarely in the center of something that happened in Europe. There's a problem in Europe, and the fact that so many of them have become radicalized is not something the US can solve. I'm sorry, but Europe, especially France, should take the lead here.
