Outrageous Outrage of the Day: Obama’s ‘Isolated Extremist’ Remark

Blogosphere • Views: 11,108

All of the wingnut blogs are screaming that in his statement about the Northwest 253 terror attack, President Obama called the alleged terrorist an “isolated extremist.”

This one comes straight from Karl Rove and Fox News, and it’s already everywhere on the right wing: ‘isolated extremist’ - Google Search.

They’re trying to trick people into thinking that Obama said the terrorist acted alone — but this is simply a flat out lie.

Because in the very same speech, President Obama also said this:

“A full investigation has been launched into this attempted act of terrorism, and we will not rest until we find all who were involved and hold them accountable.”

You have to wonder if there’s a point at which these bloggers and Fox News will feel ashamed of themselves for spreading such deliberate falsehoods. They just fall in line like mindless parrots and repeat this stuff without even bothering to check if it’s true.
