Come on, now, let's be rational. This happened less than an hour ago. There are still conflicting media reports about how many people were shot. IF (and that's a HUGE IF) Obama does make a statement, it's not going to be immediate, and certainly not before the cops/investigators figure out what happened (and, more importantly, whether there were any accomplices/people still to be apprehended).

Oh, and Obama's statement about Tiller was about 8 hours after the shooting. Still disgraceful that he responded so quickly to that, but waited days before commenting on the recruiting center shooting, but let's not jump on Obama for failing to respond to this shooting less than an hour after it happened.

Strangely, Muslims and Jews voted overwhelmingly (80%+) for 0bama.

So, why would there be shooting or anything other than peace between these groups here in the US?

Agreed. Whether he makes a statement will depend entirely on who has been shot --

U.S. soldier? No statement.

Abortion doctor? Public address.

“The Consulate General of Israel in New York City called the reported shooting “disturbing” and said it seemed “someone didn’t internalize the message.”

“U.S. Park Police said a gunman armed with a shotgun opened fire on the security guard and that other security guards returned fire. The gunman was reported wounded”

Agreed, with one slight change. It's not whether he'll make a statement, but when and how

Abortionist? Statement tonight. Outraged. Might even call for a national day of mourning

U.S. Soldier? Statement on Friday, 6pm. Half-hearted, maybe a couple of words to a reporter on the way to his weekly date with Michelle.

Kind of like that finger he flipped while on the campaign trail. Showing the bottom of shoes is the highest sign of contempt he could show to the Prime Minister of Israel, for his buddies in Egypt. Of course he doesn’t follow protocol. But he did unleash the dogs of war, and fed the lions of wrath on that trip to the Middle East. Jihad has come to America...let’s hope the State Run media will tell us the truth.
