Barry believes murdering an late tterm abortionist is much worse than murdering soldiers on US soil

The White House blasted a statement to reporters via email about five hours after news broke that third-trimester abortionist George Tiller was murdered on Sunday:
"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."

After two days of silence, President Obama issued a statement Wednesday on the shooting of two U.S. soldiers by a Muslim militant in Arkansas--but the White House didn't even email the statement to its list of national reporters. Rather, the White House appears to have quietly released this statement to a local AP bureau in Arkansas.
"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."

Writes McCormack: "The contrast between Obama's statements is striking: He's 'deeply saddened' by the murder of a U.S. soldier, but 'shocked and outraged' by the murder of an abortionist? The murder of a U.S. soldier is a 'senseless' act of violence but the murder of an abortionist is a 'heinous' act of violence?"

I don't know about the rest of you but I believe they are both terrible acts that deserve at least the same amount of coverage and outrage.

I also believe that the murder of Tiller is an isolated incident that will not have any follow up murders but that the murder of the soldiers by a US born Muslim convert has much longer lasting implications for our future as a nation. How long before we have our first suicide bomber killing either a large number of Jewish worshipers or a larger group of military targets on US soil? For Barry to rate one much worse than the other shows us truly at what level his mind works and it is not an encouraging one as far as the future of our national security goes. I would definitely label this as an Islamic Extremist act of terror on US soil. More to follow you can bet on that!
