Perhaps someone can educate me and tell me why it even matters what Obama calls it.

Because right-wingers are insane and will do anything to attack Obama. It's like zoo monkeys that throw their own feces at people.

I'm not a "right winger". And I also think he needs to call it what it is. I voted for that man the first time around and then watched him use "words" and "spin" and " lies". And changing the meaning of words to tear this country a part.

Words matter. Whether you want to defend that wolf in sheeps clothing or not .

He knows exactly what he's doing.

The Armenian poster above summed it up, maybe you should read it

Thank you LGBTLivesMatter. I agree. I think Armenian Americans are the most upset with Obama over this issue. I'm very politically moderate, and certainly not the type to go out of my way to find random things to attack Obama about. I think this is less of a right vs left issue and more so just people (besides Armenians) being sympathetic and reasonable, like LBGTLivesMatter and Chuck.

Definitely an extreme, severe, widespread case of workplace violence.

800,000 to 1.5 million Armenian deaths by actions of a country is not genocide.

800,000 to 1.5 million Jew deaths by actions of a country is genocide.

Why are Jews more important than Armenians?


I will call the Jewish deaths during WW2 a genocide when the Armenian deaths are also called genocide.

Fair deal?
