We have heard all about the Tiller incident, on every major news network for the past week, every possible angle, numerous special reports, and even an official public statement from the president. The act has been condemned by virtually everyone, (including the pro-life advocates) as the left continues the campaign to try and connect the tragedy to right-wing talk radio.
In contrast, on Monday, one soldier was killed and another wounded as they stood outside an army recruitment office in Little Rock, Arkansas. The assailant, a radical Muslim extremist, who claims he did it because of all the terrible things US soldiers have done to Muslims, and admits he would have killed more soldiers, had they been present at the time. How much news coverage has this incident received? The White House took 3 days to issue so much as a statement regarding this, and still no public comment by the Commander and Chief of these soldiers.
When a "right-wing" nut job kills a late term abortion doctor, we get two weeks of non-stop dramatic coverage from every news outlet, we get the president calling press conferences to express his outrage, and we hear non-stop whining from liberals about how "talk radio is responsible for this!" But when a radical Muslim extremist kills an American soldier on US soil, because he has been enraged by the barrage of non-stop left-wing Gitmo/AbuGrahab torture stories, we hear not a peep!
Could this have anything to do with the current middle east trip? Could it be, the president is afraid to make a statement because he doesn't want to cause a controversy on the brink of this 'historic' speech to the Muslim world? Or is it just that, army recruiters aren't among the "protected class" in this country? Oh, the Feds were swift to send out the US Marshals to protect abortion doctors at clinics around the country, but what is being done to beef up security at our recruitment offices? *crickets chirp*
