Finally: Obama’s limp statement on the jihadi attack in Arkansas
MichelleMalkin.com ^ | 6/3/2009 | Michelle Malkin

Posted on 06/03/2009 7:51:54 PM PDT by Pyro7480

The White House finally got around to releasing a statement on the jihadi attack against our troops at the Arkansas military recruitment center.

Here is the entire statement:

“I am deeply saddened by this senseless act of violence against two brave young soldiers who were doing their part to strengthen our armed forces and keep our country safe. I would like to wish Quinton Ezeagwula a speedy recovery, and to offer my condolences and prayers to William Long’s family as they mourn the loss of their son.”

“Senseless?” It made perfectly good sense to a vengeful Muslim convert jihadi bent on “killing as many people in the Army as he could.”

For contrast, here is Obama’s full statement on the Tiller murder, issued just hours after the shooting:

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.

lately, words really fail me. I think I am like Dorothy parker who said just when she felt she was outraged beyond all telling, something else happened.

I cannot keep up with the daily, hourly outrages.

I feel buried by it all,,it is hard to stick with an idea about the latest outrage what with the next one.

Ok, let's do the analysis:

I am deeply saddened

I am shocked and outraged

by this senseless act of violence against two brave young soldiers

by the murder of Dr. George Tiller

who were doing their part to strengthen our armed forces and keep our country safe.

as he attended church services this morning.

I would like to wish Quinton Ezeagwula a speedy recovery, and to offer my condolences and prayers to William Long’s family as they mourn the loss of their son.”

However profound our differences as Americans over difficult issues such as abortion, they cannot be resolved by heinous acts of violence.

If it was perpetrated by a newly converted Jihadist, it must be “random” adn “senseless”. If it was perpetrated by a mentally ill conservative, it must be premeditated and conspiratorial.

I agree. I have told some of my fellow conservatives at work that it is like a tsunami of evil that hits again & again without letup. I pray multiple times every day, but I literally cannot understand how God allows such evil (obooooooombi) to not only succeed but to actually prosper in the process. I shake my head 50-100 times a day in disbelief.

Its OK.

What goes around comes around.

The marxist crypto-muslim will reap what he has sown.

He is practicing the muzzie religious practice of Taquiya.

The merciful teachings of Jesus Christ is not in his playbook, but his poor big boned ill dressed wife and Sidwelll Friends edumacated children might soon have to find new digs.

And all because he trusted his fellow muzzies.

Just wait until tomorrow — have a feeling all of us are going to be beyond outrage when ZERO speaks to Muslims who he is courting.

Words completely failed me when I read this earlier. Obvious this Administration could care less and only released something when pressed by Fox. This is too little and too late IMO.

When Blammo’s numbers in the polls shift slightly he knows he can always call on his multitudinous jailhouse jihadi muslim converts( just dying to get outta’ jail) in chipping away at our country and bringing it to it’s knees especially while he’s on another bow & scrape tour to Saudi Arabia.

Gotta remember. Our military men have far less value in Chairman Maobama’s eyes and serve his agenda far less effectively than abortionists(late-term or otherwise) so I can understand his delayed response.

but I literally cannot understand how God allows such evil...............

More Americans chose evil over good in the last election. Obama told us who he was, and people voted for him anyway. Rick Warren and Joel Osteen had a hand in electing this man! Many Republicans stayed home. We can hardly blame God, Americans asked for it, or I should say all but 57 million.

The WH does not release a statement until odumba is out of the country. Nor does the WH mention that this was the handwork of a jailhouse convert to the religion of peace who just happened to tour Yemen not so long ago.

Words fail me as well. He cannot call this a heinous murder?


If Carlos was on the FBI watch list I am curious if was able to slip away or has the FBI been restrained by the new administration?

[Hell, maybe it is a staffing thing. odumba doubled the workload when he put those who have a strong belief in our Constitution on the domestic list (not to mention those wild BINGO games and summer baseball games at the American Legion)]

Definately part of the Alinsky strategy. We need a quick page that just bullets the hourly outrages for busy people to refer to and interested people to see the big picture.

Milque-toast SOB that despises the greatest military in the world. I'm certain the only reason he issued that statement was because of pressure. I called the White House and all my Senators and Congress-critters 2 days ago, and I'm sure others on this forum did as well.

But boy, he sure was speedy on the abortionist murder wasn't he?

He is a disgrace.

I'm already cringing in anticipation of the weak, stupid statements he'll likely make in Normandy on 6 June.

The thing about Obambi is that his rhetoric is NOTHING MORE THAN VACUOUS CLICHES, BOILERPLATE, EMPTY CRAP THAT READS AS IF IT”S UNTOUCHED BY HUMAN HANDS, no matter whether we’re talking about George Tiller, or this young soldier who’s a victim of Islamic derangement. BOTH of them are shot through with that special Obama B.S.
MEANINGLESSness.

One thing has gone unmentioned.

Obama is the Commander-In-Chief of the US Army.

Unarmed recruiters are gunned down on a city street by a domestic terrorist, but the CIC waits 48 hours to issue a statement?

Must be very reassuring to our Armed Forces.

A coward but it is looking more and more like Obama is declaring his tacit support for Islam, even in America, as versus supporting the Jews and Christians who helped create this great country.

Read what he said in Saudia Arabia about the US being one of the world’s largest Moslem countries.

Either he is totally ignorant, insane, or a closet America-hater islamist, or any combination thereof, but I never thought that he would say and do what he has against our country.

I knew he was bad, had a Communist Party environment around himself and his family, both birth parents and present one and had nothing but far-left friends, advisors, financiers, etc., but he has clearly gone way beyond our worst fears.

I am deeply saddened —When a black moslem terrorist murders a U.S. Soldier in America

I am shocked and outraged — When a mass murderer of babies is murdered by a white American male.

obambi is sad when terrorist kill our troops
BUT
obambi is OUTRAGED when a baby killer is killed.

Not good enough Mr. President...

The two announcements regarding the shootings reveal how angry he was about one and how ‘just sad’ he was about the other.

Where’s the special protection for our recruiters, you know, the kind proved for abortion doctors since the shooting?

“I am deeply saddened by this senseless act of violence against two brave young soldiers who were doing their part to strengthen our armed forces and keep our country safe."...

Saddened because only one young soldier was killed.
Senseless because the perp was so stupid he didn't manage to do even more violence.
I'm surprised he didn't call it cowardly, (for not packing himself with explosives and blowing up the whole place.)

Sometimes the rage I feel just doesn't translate into words. I have taught my baby girl to make a loud rasberry every time 0 comes on the TV screen. I have to be very careful when I see him not to let her hear the REALLY bad stuff I mutter under my breath.
