The "New Normal"

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo: “It’s a terrible situation in Boston. And, unfortunately, … one gets the sense that this is more reflective of the ‘new normal,’ if you will,” he explained. “So much of society is changing so rapidly. We talk about a ‘new normal’ when it comes to climate change and adjusting to a change in the weather patterns. ‘New normal’ when it comes to public security in a post-9/11 world. Where these random acts of violence, which at one time were implausible, now seem all-too-frequent.”


Seems like hogwash to me. But it sure has Freepers riled up. Despite how much they want America to stay afraid and angry, they don't like non-Freepers horning in on their paranoia.

jimsin is yet another Freeper tilting at the "shut down all Muslim immigration" windmill.
you mean if you invite rattlesnakes into your back yard ....people could be killed? but it wouldn’t be nice if you kept out the dangerous snakes...i dont know what the ans. could be...damn just damn!
jimsin follows up:
since when is it ‘normal’ for u.s. citizens to routinely die at the hands of jihadis....that guy’s a real leader, eh? when THOMAS JEFFERSON ...(a giant of a leader) had trouble with radical arabs he sent boatfulls of marines a few thousand miles to settle their hash...and this guy wants to settle for ‘normal’? huh?
‘normal’ for AMERICANS...is to CRUSH TYRANNY AND TYRANTS in order to make AMERICA safe....try that one on mario....
So the normal for AMERICANS is empty violent bluster? He may have a point...

skeeter blames Reagan:
The New Normal brought to you by 50 years of idiodic liberal policies.
Ann Archy: mocks liberals for suddenly craving guns:
Wonder how many LIBERALS NOW WANT GUNS TO PTOTECT THEMSELVES???? ONE???
Opinionated Blowhard seems to think Obama stopped Bush's domestic spying policy:
It was part of the New Normal for a lot of Americans after 9-11. Libs mocked that and relaxed enforcement. Now we have another strike and Libs are waking up to the fact that we need the same high level of enforcement and vigilence that we had under that evil Bush.
Biggirl mocks the imaginary liberals who thought Obama would solve all problems:
Or the libs thought that once Obama said “sorry” to the Muslims during his travels that terror attacks would stop.
randita thinks Bush solved all problems:
On GWB’s watch, this would be far from the “new normal”.
