White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest on Monday dismissed suggestions by reporters that Clinton had broken with the president on the issue.

“Having worked in this administration for four years, she is somebody who agrees strongly with the president's approach to ensuring that we are not giving legitimacy to a terrorist organization that would love to advance the narrative that they are somehow holy warriors advancing the cause of Islam by waging war against the United States,” Earnest said. “That is an utterly baseless myth. It is false.”

Finally, an answer to why he won't say the obvious.

Ok, libs, please enlighten me to what these terrorist are advancing then, birth control?
Indeed, I agree its a demented sense of Islam, as I know it, which ain't much.....
But these folks do in fact consider themselves holy warriors.
Why die over a belief then?
By not calling them what hey call themselves, will remedy this, how?
Again, this asinine idea is only leading to more confusion on the matter, not solving anything.

Stupid is as stupid does...

It's stupid to give these people credit for acts they seek recognition for, and call them by the name they're so proud of...
By doing so,.. we legitimize them... we build their image... and feed their egos...

Obama carefully selected his words... calling the incident a terrorist act, and a hate crime...
Both,... allow for extra legal action...

Trump, is the bull in the china shop... ISIS will use his words to advance their cause and spur more recruitment...
The man has no concern beyond his own self promotion...

Politics is the practice and theory of influencing other people.
Words matter...

When acts are proven to be of a certain group, they must be reported as such,... but jumping the gun, just makes it look as though we are weak and jumpy...  If we suspect their involvement in every tragedy, their terrorist actions are working...

BINGO......

I don't understand this sophomoric reasoning.....

It is just the opposite, it shows you in fact know, it is what they want, so by default, or effectively, you just did acknowledge them by denying them.
It is at best, passive aggressive behavior on Obama's end, to just outright incompetence.

It is so obvious, I can't understand why people don't see it for what it is.....

And again, it has only led to confusion and allowed Trump and other the opportunity to frame the issue to their favor.

As you say, stupid is as stupid does.

Yes, yes, calling an arsonist an arsonist, murderers, murderers, rapists, just sexually challenged, all just being
Smart.

Really?

PC gets pretty thin.

So, here it is......

About 60% of Conservatives,... (that's 30% of voters,... or, 15% of America)... have chosen their champion...

Even though, many,... many,... staunch Conservatives are now disavowing him, and even comparing him to Hitler... and warning that his candidacy will not only assure Hillary's election,... but also, turn the Senate, and maybe the Congress....
He's still your guy... ('cause he's not a politician)...
The problem with a Party that's anti- politician is,... they can only pick a person that really, really, sucks at politics...
It's like,... may the worst man win...
Man,... you guys nailed it...

I'm good with that...
...and thanks.... for all the fish...

Oh......

I have learned so much from this exchange....

.and thanks.... for all the fish..

So these Muslim Terrorist wait with baited breath for the Obama to speak of them then, eh?
Golly, is it possible then that they will just step it up, kill more, etc, to bring him to his knees, at the cost of more lives, only because this narcissistic man believes they want his attention?


Sick.

I have been curious about Juust how it all works.

Somehow, Who we elect is gonna affect their recruitment?
Maybe we should elect a Muslim..
Ohh, wait..

I wonder what the mentality is?
What is ISIS thinking?

I wonder if it would offend them to find out that 75% of the American population don't know why they're mad. Or if they found out that 90% don't even care.
Or do they think they're raising awareness?
