“They just gosta be first”!!!!
Nope, I beat them to the punch this time and called it either Al Qaeda or another drug addicted Democrat @ 3:54pm.
I win they lost.
Obama has spoken; “But make no mistake, we will get to the bottom of this — we’ll find out who did this, we’ll find out why they did this. Any responsible individuals, any responsible groups will feel the full weight of justice.”
And then he added, off-camera and with a slight smile, ‘right after we solve the Benghazi case’.
Meanwhile on CNN,they are saying that these bombs are nothing like the bombs that the islamic nutcases (who never set off bombs) would have used.
Have run the Boston marathon. There are usually thousands of people near the finish line area.
Yea carry on lo or ok or whatever you addled idiot, like there have been no great inventions to come out of the western world, we just arn’t that smart are we lo, we are so dumb we let people like you come here just to clean up our diction and grammar and show us the way of the what? Your religion of peace? Who ever or whatever perpetrated this tragedy should be quickly introduced to his 72 year old virgin. You want to talk about dumb, well your kind have the market cornered on dumb.
Obama told the world he’d get to the bottom of Benghazi, and todate nothing zip nadda. If it were a Muslim fanatic, well we’ll never know he’ll find some you tube video to blame or some rightwinger to blame.
I have a nephew that ran in that race today. We have not yet heard if he is alright and will try again this evening.
Doesn’t surprise me that the MSM is initially blaming a Patriot of some sort or a Christian, as that is what people will remember.
Is this another manifestation of the results of “Charlie Wilson’s War”.
think fuuny talk guy is pretend something and somebody
I have no doubt that this is radical Islam. They have no fear of this President. Seven months since Benghazi and the perps are foot loose and fancy free. America needs to grow a new set and big ones at that. Like crazy Uncle Joe said “the President has a big stick” – but what he didn’t say is that he is afraid to use it. I honestly feel like this bozo fears that at some point – well after his term is up – they will find a way to get him. In other words – he’s chicken shit.
I can’t think of a worse choice, this will cause no one to lose heart or faith.
Meanwhile, some major journalists blame tax day protester types off the cuff while some commenters blame Obama. Neither is right to do so like that but it’s quite a contrast I’d say.
To answer Fred’s question, if you thought immediately this is the doing of a lunatic, communist or Muslim (Saudi or otherwise), all that means is that you were not born yesterday.
I’m not shocked, or even too surprised. Growing up hearing about bombs going off on the news every blessed day inures you to this sort of thing. You start saving your tears for those worth crying over.
The older I get, the clearer it gets that in any generation there’s not that many of them. Was it fair 12 people died this afternoon? No indeed. If the Lord laid bare our guilt Boston would have been lucky to have gone the way of Sodom long since, and the rest of us not far behind.
You can rest assured that among the dead and maimed there were plenty of them and theirs who tweeted “Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead” to their friends or held parties in Boston’s plastic paddy pubs to toast the death of Baroness Thatcher (in bed, in spite of their best efforts), or gave money to Irish “charities” to funnel to Sinn Fein and the IRA for years until Clinton shut them down, or thrust Sinn Fein sympathizers into office at every election, from the Kennedys down. I hope they like the taste of the bitter medicine they shoved down the throats of the widows and orphans and parents of loyal Ulstermen for years, safe and sound in Boston, thinking they’d never answer for it in this world. Not one is worth a hair on Baroness Thatcher’s head.
When the plastic paddies are prepared to explain what they plan to do to fight twice as hard against the enemies of Christian civilization in North America as they did to aid and abet the enemies of Christian civilization in Ireland (that has more than a Shinner’s chance of getting into heaven of working, I mean—for example, registration of Muslims, communists and lunatics as opposed to guns), I’ll be all attention. Till then they can save their sniveling for someone thick enough to give a tinker’s curse for the Tims.
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, and pray for His mercy—not for Boston’s plastic paddies, but for yourselves and for your children.
Yer quite the dick, Dick…
Calm down folks, nothing to see. Its just another terroriist attack. That if Islamic, will disapear without any details. The Media will work long & hard to hide any real facts.The story will be suppresed as they frightengly do a bengazi or Fort Hood cover( work place violence) up. After all Islam may not be shown for what it truly is.Nor that they are at war with America Obama is a Muslims best friend. He loves the MB so.
Acts like this are not common in this part of the world, however remember that acts of similar nature take place every day in other parts of the world. We are saddened because it happened here. Again innocent people are killed or wounded. Every day hundreds of innocent babies are executed because they are not wanted. It’s called planned parenthood. Where is the outcry? Where is the outcry about that murdering Dr. Grosnell? Where is the outcry over all the children that die daily from malnutrition or disease? We are just hyporcrites.

Well said in spirit, but a little off the mark with “Paddies”. I doubt there were very many beer swirling ex-IRA supporters standing at the Boston Marathon finish line.
Otherwise the biggest questions that need to be asked are who is responsible for bringing terror and the subsequent enforcement on to America’s people?
Every day Americans loose more freedoms, liberties, and secure lifestyles for doing little more than going to work, watching tv,and eating fatty foods.
The US government has no issue spending billions of dollars protecting foreign borders and countries like North/ South Korea, or the Kingdom of Saud, but they can’t or won’t defend their own. Instead they allow open borders while demonizing any and all Americans who express or represent truth, justice, and a desire for freedoms and liberties.
People insist on gathering together in herds, like cattle. Makes it easy for the barbarians.
Oh well, city people kill their own in far greater numbers. Along with killing their unborn kids. It’s not like they aren’t used to killing.
doug damit, rite on que, U got abortions covered so now maybe U can bang on gays a bit!!!!!
Not to panic,O’bat-ears And the Magic Teleprompter are on the case.
And how!
If it’s any comfort, the Saudi national now in custody is the Un-Paddy.
One would think it prudent to wait for the identity of the suspect before deliberately casting aspersions or deflections but then again this is the “popular” press who still don’t get how big the Gosnell thing still is.
“The Ikhwan [Muslim Brotherhood] must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and “sabotaging” its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”
— Internal memo of the Muslim Brotherhood. [Obama funding: over $400 million]
I have a co-worker who was there with his wife who was running. They left the area where the bombs went off 15 mins or so before it happened.
Anyways, I’m going to become a Boston Marathon truther, solely to perpetuate false and misinformation that it was an Obama administration inside job.
No word yet if the Saudi national is a suspect or a victim, the feds are being coy and the Boston cops have deferred to the FBI. As per the Gosnell thing…even more horrific but that story doesn’t fit a certain narrative…does it?
As for Slater’s ravings…almost makes me ashamed to call myself a christian…almost.
I’ll bet the bomber bought these bombs at bomb show where no background checks are required. We need to ban bombs … only terrorists and governments should have bombs. In present day America there is little difference.
Which video will Hillary apologize for now? Someone posting on YouTube is headed for jail.
syncro
join us’n atheists, we believe in NO god, and think the slathering dick is just that!!!
I’m actually a piss poor christian in the ecumenical sense…more inclined to the “spirit” of the word. That said, I can still spot a Dick…;-)
My thoughts and prayers are with the innocent, old and young affected by this murderous act in Boston.
I do have a SPECIAL prayer: I pray the executives of Columbia University, who happen to LOVE murderous revolutionaries, feel direct pain from this attack.Maybe one of theirs was running or cheering a loved one.Or received a direct hit from a blood soaked detached limb, the mother^*$%ers.
Also ROBERT BLOOD-REDFORD can take some glee in this free pubicity.
I’m sure he convinced of a redeeming quality to this COWARDLY attack on innocents.
Yes I am, most definitely…… pissed off.
There are reports that say a suspect, a Saudi national, has been caught but now people are being mute. I wonder if the white-washing begins now.
Gosnell should become a household word for the evil and filth people tolerate.
Dick a Christian? If he says so.
Yeah well, right now we dunno much. Statistically the usual suspects are islamists, folks off their meds and lefties…for good reason.
My reaction, is that seeing the video and stills of the explosion(s) is that these are not consistant with the profesional terrorists material of choice…plastic (semtex, cyclonite, TNT) too much white smoke and little flash….
This could mean the perpetrators had to improvise with low power material…what I saw was more consistant with something like black powder…especially the copious white smoke.
You really have to resume taking your meds, Dick.
And for what it is worth to the overall discussion, it is way too early to start positing on who or what organization might be responsible. It is going to take quite some time to arrive at a definitive conclusion
Without any idea as to who actually bombed the marathon I noticed that a flag with that funny symbol Grampa put on the outhouse door was moved by the blast. As the camera panned up and down the street I noticed high on the wall a flag with a red maple leaf in the middle of it. I thought that IF the bomber came from the country with the outhouse door flag you can bet the American MSM will blame the country with the maple leaf on its flag.
Twelve people did not die. Keep up with the news, folks, and if your hearing is going, read it. This is bad enough without getting your facts wrong.
You do understand what the police are doing at this moment, right? Rounding up witnesses and video clips. That will take time, so don’t rush to spread rumours, please.
So glad BamBam could quickly just recycle his Benghazi speech.
Makes pretending he cares so much easier.
So where is it America has to invade this time to get those pesky terrorists, Afghanistan, Iraq,Cuba but wait they already did those.Iran north Korea, Canada its any ones guess this time.
Think the other 2 bombs didn’t go off b/c the bomber injured ‘itself’ on the second one [ possibly the first ] just speculating of course; but to have two detonate but the remaining two not seems odd but if he was injured by his own evilness this would make sense.
Just reported that the second one was stronger than the first.
Totally disgusted by the usual LSM that has ‘blamed’ the republicans, tea party members or anyone on the right as the NEW YORK TIMES has and while giving the terrorists a voice to express their happiness about this attack on civilians as AP did.
If this turns out to be an islamic terrorist attack they-the LSM will ignore that fact and blame the American right as per usual.
It makes you wonder, though, suppose the perp escaped to the UK and the UK refused to extradite them back to the US. Food for thought for Bostonians
After watching CBC and the videos and references to the atlanta bombing, the abortion clinic bombing, Oklahoma bombing and Waco Texas I’m convinced it was the work of anti-govt forces like the tea party and NRA types which are only found on the right side of the political spectrum.

What a gruesome scene, my thoughts go out to the families and the individuals affected by this terrorist attack.
I heard that the authorities also shut down all cel phone networks, which may have prevented further detonation.
Yup, might as well just bend over and let them do the goat thingy.
I’m sure this is the work of those bloodthirsty Lutherans, or perhaps even those psychopathic Southern Baptists. You don’t think another religious group could be to blame, do you?
Methinks Barry O’s response will involve an apology, a Hawaiian vacation, and 18 holes of golf.
Yes, heard that as well. But then two main cell providers claim – no we didn’t.
Wise to do so of course, so not sure why they’d deny unless their media spokesperson wasn’t in the loop. Done to allay fears of big brother control?
Hard to know whats true or not at this point save for I expect the WH to lie and capitalize on this tragedy like they have with the Sandy Hook shooting.
Eye witnesses at the blast scene said there were bomb sniffing dogs and authorities conducting a “drill” prior to the explosion. Ample evidence to suggest pre-knowledge of the attack.

That’s the logical spot for the 3rd unexploded device, if it was also on a short delay from the first one in the middle. Rationally sick puppies, these bombers.
Over 200 killings in the US today of the weakest and most defenseless.
Just to add some context…
A crowd that large and he only manages to kill a couple of people? Amateur.
“A crowd that large and he only manages to kill a couple of people? ”
More would certainly have died if there were not so much medical help immediately available. How many who lost limbs would have simply bled out without medical attention.
Loki, I watched the interview with a surgeon at one of the Boston hospitals after he had performed six operations (up to that point) and I think you’ll wish you’d had a bit of problem with the captcha thingy.
Plus, if he really is the Saudi student whose apartment they’re searching, he is an amateur. And isn’t everyone glad of that.
Left my English papers till last or would have known that the Daily Mail includes a photo of the 8 yr old and the condition of the others in his family who were there to give a hug to his Dad. The small banner he carried has a dove of peace on it.
“Eight-year-old Martin Richard, left, from Dorchester, Massachusetts, was killed as he was standing at the finishing line waiting to give his father, Bill, who was competing in the Boston Marathon, a hug. His six-year-old sister lost a leg in the blast and his mother Denise is in hospital after undergoing brain surgery. Today a candle was lit outside the family home, centre, and the word ‘Peace’ was written on the pavement – Martin’s older brother who was also watching the race was not injured in the blast.”
If the tears haven’t come up till now (I’m too world weary), they have now just thinking of that one family.
You’re quite the ahole syncro
Pesky Hutterites, I bet.
Well thanks for noticing John…
