Obama: Virginia Tech Violence Like The “Verbal Violence” From Imus

He also says that 33 people getting shot by a deranged madman is just like the violence caused by outsourcing.

…while Obama mourns the slain students, he takes the massacre more as a theme than as a point of discussion.
“Maybe nothing could have been done to prevent it,” he says toward the end.
So he moves quickly to the abstract: Violence, and the general place of violence in American life.
“There’s also another kind of violence that we’re going to have to think about. It’s not necessarily the physical violence, but the violence that we perpetrate on each other in other ways,” he said, and goes on to catalogue other forms of “violence.”
There’s the “verbal violence” of Imus.
There’s “the violence of men and women who have worked all their lives and suddenly have the rug pulled out from under them because their job is moved to another country.”
There’s “the violence of children whose voices are not heard in communities that are ignored,”
And so, Obama says, “there’s a lot of different forms of violence in our society, and so much of it is rooted in our incapacity to recognize ourselves in each other.”

Right. We’re all victims. Nothing is ever anybody’s fault. Let’s all hold hands, sing some Joan Baez songs and then vote ourselves a bunch of feel-good entitlements from the national treasury.
Because that will solve our problems.
Sarcasm aside, you know why Obama moves from the “concrete” to the “abstract”? Because he’s a shallow twit with a lot of charisma, good looks and white liberal guilt going for him but not a lot of actual ideas.
