Obama's Tucson speech

Last night Obama gave a profound and moving speech about the tragedy of the weekends mass shooting in Arizona .
At the memorial he spoke of unity, our nation needing to do better as a whole.  He seemed emotional at times and had a few long pauses.
The president was extremly respectful in my opinion to the victims and their family.
When most have been playing the blame game recently , focusing on the medias mis use of power. genral corruption amoug politicains. Obama made it very clear that he wanted to focus on the fact that we all are connected. That we as neighbors ,friends ,coworkers can and should do better by just being better. Near the end of the speech when he spoke about the 9yrld victim . He spoke of youthful belief in our country and goverment. Speaking on how we can all learn from the little girl who lost her life.

(Obama's remarks came four days after a gunman opened fire at a political event outside a supermarket in Tucson. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords remains in critical condition after being shot in the head. The shooting left six dead, including a federal judge and 9-year-old Christina Green .AP)

The reasons behind the shooters rampage are still unclear. He is clearly not right mentallty. this is his mug shot >>>>>>
disturbing......either way , Obama did an outstanding job in showing strength and compassion.
kudos Obama
