He was/is a nut case. That said, reports are coming out that he was making a political statement with his actions...and that would put him in the category of a terrorist.

Dixie, he was about to be deployed to Iraq, not Afghanistan

This is a terrible tragedy, but in no way is this Obama's fault. Obama and the Dems have enough to criticize on with the economy, jobs, massive debt and no solutions except making all of that worse with nationalizing healthcare and overregulating emissions, let's not dim that with blaming him for everything.

Thanks, but it's OORAH. Or some sort of half bark, half grunt. Whichever is more appropriate.
Hey, idiot - you were the one who said it was obviously terrorism based strictly on Muslim affiliation. That was pathetic.
But not nearly as pathetic as the claim in the initial post that this is Obama's fault. I see you've abandoned that line...

Not strictly based on Muslim affiliation, if that were the case, I would claim Obama is a terrorist! I said it's terrorism based on the fact that he was Muslim, and sympathetic to Jihadists, expressed support for the Jihadist cause, and was praising fuckin Allah while he was murdering innocent Americans in broad daylight! It' based on THAT, you nit wit bird-brain simpleton!

Yeah, you fuckin pinheads probably danced in the streets at the news some our boys were killed, we know how much you loathe the military. Obama was barely able to break away from promoting his healthcare monstrosity long enough to extend condolences to the families. You people are pathetic!
No, you f'in moron. The pathetic one is the one who started a thread within minutes of the incident, placing blame on Obama's Afghan policy, when the guy was being deployed to Iraq, and politicizing it immediately.
That's the pathetic one.
I think what pisses you off the most is the instant conclusion could very well be right in some very scary ways.
I'll give the outrageous indignation a pass. I sat back and watched people just like you who claimed that they "spoke out all the time" when Bush was getting it stuck to him d-a-i-l-y and couldn't give two shits how outrageous their rhetoric was, while a weak voice once in a blue moon said:
"Well now that isn't fair."
Hitch up your drawers and hang on tight. You gotta whole lot of fire to walk through and if you're this pissed now, you'll fall to pieces by the time the second year's passed.
All the reports I am hearing is saying Afghanistan is where he was going.

"Hasan was due to be deployed to Afghanistan to help soldiers with combat stress, a task he'd done stateside with returning soldiers, the Army said. Army spokeswoman Col. Cathy Abbott was uncertain when Hasan was to leave but he was in the preparation stage of deployment, which can take months."

Quick answers from my POV:
I think it is an act of terrorism. Obviously, not all terrorist acts are planned from abroad by well-resourced networks. Most terrorist attacks are not 9/11 style events. They are car bombings, loose gunmen, and other crude and brutal suicide missions. The victims were soldiers, but they were not serving in a combat role at that time. They were non-combatants.
This guy seems to have acted alone and was seeking an outlet for his anger about U.S. foreign policy.
Raises again the question of whether preventing terrorism (something that could happen anywhere, be committed by anyone with some personal motive, and by a variety of mean) is something we should sideline the Constitution over.

As long as you admit that the lies & BS are just payback, that's fine w/ me.
Very honest of you.

of course that begs the question....if you sideline the constitution, what then is the purpose and reason for our great country....
is terrorism so bad at this point, that we need to sideline the constitution? the constitution is not a suicide pact, but i don't think we are anywhere near suicide....

everything i've read said he was going to afghanistan.....do you have link or something, because i wouldn't want you to be pathetic
I say that you need thicker skin if you're going to last. If this is a demonstration of how well you can keep it together, then you've got troubles ahead.
If you can be 1/2 as strong as the conservatives that listened to the outrageous crap we heard day in and day out, you might keep it together.
If it makes you feel righteous and snuggly to call it payback, so be it because payback's a bitch. No one said politics was fair.
Even you are hearing the reports on this nutbar and know that as pissed as it makes you, it's looking like Dixie was pretty right on.
