I’m so confused

So, does Obama think it would be beneficial for more people to die in terrorist attacks than in automobile accidents, or just what, exactly?
“The odds of dying in a terrorist attack are a lot lower than they are of dying in a car accident, unfortunately”. [emphasis mine – Paco].

  1. That's the same appearance where President Monumental D*** F*** mixed up the Gulf Coast with the Atlantic seaboard, a really epic faux pas.

    Jet lag, or an ill timed drag? One has to wonder.

  3. As usual, when the comparison of deaths from something to the number of people who die in car accidents is bandied about, El Jefe overlooked an important point. Terrorist murders are intentional. Car deaths, with rare exceptions, are accidents. Criminal intent is an essential aspect of the terrorism, and makes it much more repreehnsible than accidental death.

    The distinction between intent and lack of intent is an important one in the law of homicide. One might have thought a trained lawyer would understand it. In this case, one would be wrong. I rather doubt that El Jefe comprehends law all that well. He certainly doesn't understand the Constitution.
