Actually, I repudiate violence and hatred toward any peaceful people. Any and all.

When you combine radical political correctness with extreme government incompetence and the dramatic growth of radical Islam inside the United States, you create an environment which is absolutely primed for Islamic terror. The truth is that the FBI knew about this guy well in advance. In fact, they had even interviewed him three separate times over the years. And at one point the government had been investigating the mosque that he had been attending, but that investigation was shut down by Hillary Clinton's State Department.

Which point do you disagree with, glitter?

Do you think all of Islam is our enemy?

That is no repudiation.

You can either repudiate violence and hatred toward peaceful followers of Christianity and Islam, or you can't.

He did make a lot of sense when speaking of how we are handling ISIS.

He was making a lot of sense the day he said they were "contained", as well.

At least he didn't waste all his airtime talking about the biggest threat to our country, at the moment,and was able to take care of some politicking for Hillary. Well done! Free airtime for Hillary!

I am against all violence against innocents no matter who they are committed by. Hatred will always be. You cannot control what is in the heart of another person. What you can do is protect yourself and those around you. That's what I would suggest. Words spoken on a forum are kinda useless to defend against stuff like that, right?

He's not gonna say "radical Islamist". No how. No way.

No, he's not. It's a matter of policy:

Obama has explained his verbal strategy as an effort to isolate the group. Earlier this year, Obama said its members are "desperate for legitimacy."

"They try to portray themselves as religious leaders � holy warriors in defense of Islam," Obama said at the close of a summit on violent extremism Feb. 22. "That's why ISIL presumes to declare itself the �Islamic State.' And they propagate the notion that America � and the West, generally � is at war with Islam."

Obama went on to say "we are not at war with Islam. We are at war with people who have perverted Islam."

This wording isn't all that different from former President George W. Bush's language following the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and at the onset of the war in Afghanistan.

"This great nation of many religions understands, our war is not against Islam, or against faith practiced by the Muslim people. Our war is a war against evil," Bush said in January 2002.

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton prefers the term "radical jihadists," saying the GOP's preferred phrasing "sounds like we are declaring war against a religion."

As soon as the transcript comes up, I'll post the ISIL update for everyone.

He explained why not. Made a lot of sense.

Which point do you disagree with?

Man. The President just "eviscerated" Drumpf (not my word).

Dramatic and forceful.

At least he made good use of his time to get some jabs in on Trump.

He's not gonna say "radical Islamist". No how. No way.

Not gonna do it.

No. I heard him clearly.

I think many of us are reserved about his speeches after the "contained" comment.

I just always find it odd that every white crazy nut is labeled a Christian when Christianity doesn't condone murder of innocents, but a muslim can commit something like this and STATE that's why they did it and Islam still is the religion of peace.

Actually, both Christianity and Islam condone the murder of innocents. Radical Christians and radical Muslims get their information from the same place: the Old Testament. Exodus, Deuteronomy, Leviticus, it all says that you must kill anyone that doesn't practice your religion.

Christians have killed countless people in the name of Christianity. Are you saying that Christianity is to blame for it?

America: "one team, one nation."

He gave several updates on ISIL.

You must have missed them.

"No religious tests" in America.

Soumds right to me.

Yes, an excellent time for politics!

I thought he was going to update us on ISIS.

Drumpf's proposals "betrays the values America stands for."

Hear, hear.

I'm watching. He is absolutely on point.

The best line was, and I'm paraphrasing: "Using the term isn't a strategy. It's a talking point."

He's on to Drumpf now. Easy pickings, to be sure.

The president is currently defending his refrain from using the term "radical Islamist"...incessantly.
