tucson: By attending the memorial service he is politicizing the event. Is this turning down the rhetoric???|||Yeah, he refused to come to Arizona for two years while it is being invaded by Mexican bandits, but now he comes. He's such a freakin' phony!|||.... When a political Congresswoman is shot at a political rally, it IS political. It doesn't get more political than that. When a Congresswoman is shot, OF COURSE the President should acknowledge the event and come out against it, and in support of those who are suffering from the event. Once again, President Obama is doing exactly the right thing -- unlike Bush, who partied while New Orleans drowned.|||I don't care for Obama, but it seems reasonable and expected that he would be there. What he chooses to say while there will determine if he is politicizing it. Hopefully, he'll be respectful and call a spade a spade.|||It's really simple... Politics, or our political culture, has everything to do with a POLITICIAN being shot. But no. He is going there because he is the leader of our nation.|||And if Obama didn't shown any concern about the tragedy you people would politicize that saying Obama doesn't care. Damn man, politics just NEVER stops. It never does.|||He's the President attending a service where a Congresswoman was shot. Come on.|||Obama would politicize taking a dump if he could.|||i heard he shook hands with a democrat today....when will his "politicizing" stop???|||So he can start his world apology tour.....|||Yeah, that's really going to help the current situation, right?|||No. But you are. President Bush would have done the same if he were still president|||God so loved the world that He gave his only begotten Son that whosoever believeth in Him shall not not perish but shall have ever lasting life.|||What will he do if they pull him over and demand to see proof of citizenship?
