Sat down with President Obama. He has been incredible. He too has agreed not to mention the shooter's name.

22 Jul 12

At least two people Tweeted from the president's meeting with shooting victims and their families at an Aurora hospital. POLITICO's Jennifer Epstein reports on the home page:

Obama and White House press secretary Jay Carney both made assurances that they would not use Holmes’s name to avoid drawing more attention to the shooter, the brother of aspiring sports reporter Jessica Ghawi said on Twitter. Carney confirmed that he’d agreed not to use the shooter’s name.

Another person in the room for the president’s visit, sports radio host Peter Burns, said on Twitter that Obama was aware of Ghawi’s passion for sports. “She was [a] girl with passion that was going places,” Burns said the president told family members.

The president also offered some levity to a victim without a driver’s license who needs to fly home. “I have a little pull with the TSA,” Obama joked, according to a tweet from Burns.

UPDATE: Obama said after meeting with victims and their families that the whole world is thinking of them. And he said he assured them that, “Although the perpetrator of this act has received a lot of attention, that attention will fade way."

    While Obama is unquestionally a dishonest man and rarely does anything without political motivation this is the one time he's donesomething right.

    The reason that these psychos commit these attrocities is precicely because because they are imortalized and elevated to celebrity stata afterward.

    It's fine what Obama did, but it doesn't make him "incredible."

    It's not as if any other president couldn't have, or wouldn't have, done the same thing in the same situation.

    On the other hand, it seems many of my fellow conservatives are criticizing Obama for making a political photo-op out of this. I don't think that's right for them to do that. We should leave politics out of this.

    If the lying ass Obama says he will not use shooter's name, that is exactly what he WILL do. Wait and see.

    Out of respect to the dead, their families, loved ones and President Obama, I will not comment on his decision.
    (Does that make me incredible too?)
