Obama's hypocritical memorial speech for Arizona shooting victims

Keep in mind that this is a man whose military endeavors have resulted in the deaths of thousands of Middle Eastern men, women, and children. This is a president who has claimed the right to assassinate any American citizen he considers to be dangerous. He continues to support the right of women to murder their unborn children. And yet his empty rhetoric is still able to pull people out of their seats with gratuitous standing ovations. There is something seriously wrong with this country.
