and that it was created for this election?
We don't want to do anything before they bury PVT Long out of respect for his family.
Listen to www.karn.com, Little Rock's talk radio this PM live and Jeannie Burlsworth of Secure Arkansas might say something even though she was invited to talk about something else.
Obama can’t comment, he’s in the mosque..
Here is my contribution to the cause: a letter to the editor of my local rag:
The President and the majority of our “state-run” media have ignored the first successful terrorist attack on American soil since 9/11 and the death of an American soldier but have been quick to denounce and mourn and publicize the death of noted abortionist George Tiller.
Approximately 7 hours after Dr. Tiller was murdered, the President released a statement: “I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning. However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence.” Then, he quickly directed his Attorney General to dispatch US Marshals to guard abortion clinics.
As I write this, over 24 hours have passed since the slaying of Army Private William Long at the recruiting station in Little Rock and I have seen no statement released by the President (Private Long’s Commander-in-Chief) on his behalf nor have I heard of any Marshals being dispatched to guard our recruiting stations. I just watched the President introduce his new nominee for Secretary of the Army on National television and neither could spare a few words to mourn the death of this soldier nor denounce the islamic terrorism which precipitated it. As far as interest expressed by the press; I will bet that prior to reading this, most of you did not even know the slain soldier’s name and probably less than 50 % knew the name of his attacker (Abdulhakim Muhammad) or this: A prosecutor said Muhammad admitted shooting Long and another soldier “because of what they had done to Muslims in the past.”
I have been pondering why the President has not publicly acknowledged the death of Private Long and three reasons immediately come to mind:
A) he is preparing to tour the middle east this week where i suspect he will continue to kiss up to the muslim nations and apologize for making them so angry and talking about this incident would detract from his mission.
B) He hasn’t given this soldier’s death a second thought, it just isn’t very important to him.
C) He does not want to acknowledge that a terrorist has conducted a successful attack on our soil within the first five months of his administration after the previous administration was able to prevent those attacks for seven years.
I suspect that the correct answer is all of the above. Whatever his reasons, the contrast between his actions in these two deaths graphically illustrates his priorities.
Thanks, DC, I’ll listen.
I am in contact with the American Legion, VFW, Patriot Riders, Secure Arkasnas, and other conservative, grassroots organizations.
We are kicking around the idea of a "show of support" gathering for our troops at the sight of the shooting either WED or THU...possibly this weekend.
All organizations mentioned above are talking to each other and making sure that the "i" s are dotted, and "t"s crossed. We don't want a PROTEST of Obama's innaction, nor the national media's blackout, but to stand with our troops in a show of support. I have contacted LRPD and asked for permits (if necessary) to be on the sidewalk to be sure that we don't step on anyone's toes.
Like you, I am outraged at the "Johnny on the spot condemnation of the assassination of Tiller, but not a word from the CINC (pronounced "sink") during his announcement of the new Army Secretary.
Stay tuned and be prepared to show up to support the troops WITH TASTEFUL SIGNS!:
"Where is our CINC?"
We support our troops!
Don't bury this terrorist attack MSM!
MSM = covering for Obama!
This was terrorism!
etc
He seems to fit in with that crowd....by actions, not racial profiling.
Great letter. Good for you! I hope it gets published.
Ive been talking to several organizations, and they are interested in showing support for our troops. The local American legion, VFW, Patriot Rider, and Secure Arkansas are on board, but want to talk to their "higher ups". While we are hovering, I am in contact with LRPD and getting info on when/where we can peaceably assemble during business hours. The military said they can't actually participate, but would appreciate our showing up.
I'll keep you posted for this Litte Rock FREEP.
Give me some tips on doing this, as this is my first FREEP in Litte Rock since the Hillary book signing;)

I’m just getting depressed..this feeling so helpless.
Until my last breath... there is always hope.
“no BC, no census” That would be a nice response to the ACORN thugs that will be around with the census, just say “Show me O’s long form US COLB and I’ll be happy to answer your census questions.” The blank stare one would get, would be worth the trouble of saying that to them. It would be the “lights are on but nobody’s home” look. Of course there is always the chance that it will be a Black Panther that will be “helping” with the census, in which case, bad bad things would happen. To Him.
thanks....i needed that!
Ah, we are in complete agreement. The muslim usurper does not say anything about this because it does not concern him or bother him. He is one of them. I relish the day that his crime of being a usurper is exposed. Whenever that day comes, however long it takes. It will happen. The usurper and I are close in age, God willing, I will live to see the day the usurper is put in prison. And thank you for all the helpful posts you made with so much info about the BC issue and where to write to protest his usurpation. I sent many many tangible snail mails, lots to the SCOTUS. So did half a million others, yet Roberts still swore that foreign POS in.

Thank YOU, FRiend.
It was a labor of love- for my country.
I will never rest until this usuper piece of Muslim/Marxist sh*t is frog marched out of the White House to prison.

All your reasons are correct, very well said too. I would venture to guess that reason 3, that The Usurper just doesn’t give a damn, is the main reason he won’t acknowledge the murder of a US Army Private.
The Usurper sure gave a damn about the Tiller, the killer of 60,000 not yet born Americans. However he didn’t care about the 60,000 dead babies. Hmm. Don’t seem right does it? Seems evil.
You know how The Usurper, when he gets off of AF1, quickly passes by the Marine at the bottom of the stairs and gives the Marine no respect whatsoever? He hurries by the Marine like he’s a flight attendant, and does some very poor wave instead of a returned salute to the Marine?
Well, if O won’t acknowledge a live Marine with a salute, easy enough to do, why would he mourn the loss of a slain Army Private, he can’t even mention it. It ain’t even on his radar to care about patriotic Americans. He only cares about guys like Ayers, Wright, Tiller, criminals and bigots.
The media is very silent on this for the most part. I only saw coverage on Fox this morning. I did not hear much talk radio today, but heard nothing about this terrorist act resulting in a dead Army Private. God rest his young soul.
It most certainly was a terrorist attack on our soil. Or is it now supposed to be called a “man made disaster”? Libtards. Can’t be trusted with anything, let alone the security of our nation.
I think if you call this an act of terrorism (which I can certainly accept), you would certainly have to call the DC Area Sniper shootings that were also perpetuated by muslim converts acts of terrorism as well. In fact, those sniper attacks would be arguably more legitimately categorized as "terrorism" since they were carried out against random civilians in an effort to cause fear and panic, whereas this attack was carried out against members of the military. Given that, these brave soldiers are not the first victims of terrorism on US soil since 9/11/01.
Ya know... and I know I'm REALLY pushing the envelope of Free Speech on this one ... why aren't we profiling, racially or otherwise, for terrorists?
When Law Enforcement Officers are looking for suspects, especially when based upon eye witness accounts, one of the first things relayed to them on the scene is a physical description of the suspects.
We SHOULD profile for suspects if we had a series of terrorist attacks by people who consistently looked like this:
OR THIS:
OR THIS:
If the nation had 4 terrorist attacks, either attempted or carried out, in the last 16 years by people who looked like this, Conservatives (regardless of race, creed or religion) would support profiling:
So, why is it wrong to profile people who look like this:
