Still No Comment From President Obama on Shooting of U.S. Soldiers in Arkansas

With President Obama's main concern focusing on soothing and appeasing the Muslim world, he has still not commented on the shooting of two American soldiers in Arkansas.

However, Senator Joe Lieberman issued the following statement today in response to the shooting of two U.S. soldiers at an Arkansas recruiting station by a Muslin convert who said that he was opposed to the U.S. military.

“Hadassah and I offer our deepest sympathies to the families of the U.S. soldier shot and killed and a second soldier wounded in Arkansas yesterday. Members of the Armed Forces sacrifice every day to keep our nation safe, and we are grateful for their courageous service. This tragedy once again illustrates the very real dangers posed by homegrown terrorism in the United States and the urgent need for all of us - including federal, state, and local governments - to understand and combat this threat.”

On Sunday, a few hours after the death of abortionist George Tiller, the White House emailed a statement to reporters in which the president said: "I am shocked and outraged by the murder of Dr. George Tiller as he attended church services this morning."

It has now been more than 24 hours since news broke that Pvt. William Long was killed and Pvt. Quentin Ezeagwula was wounded in Arkansas. President Obama has not issued a statement. The White House has not responded to an email from TWS asking if the president will issue a statement.
