WTF?

"The essence of this tragedy, it seems to me, derives from a fundamental absence of empathy on the part of the attackers: an inability to imagine, or connect with, the humanity and suffering of others."

Barack H Obama talking about 9/11.

Today's most misquoted statement. Presented out of context, just like everyone else. Seems like he's got his head on straight, doesn't it?

Well...

He goes on to basically blame the US for creating the circumstances that lead to the murderers losing their empathy.

Nope, Barry, wrong again.
