Obama: Don’t Jump To Conclusions On Shooting

From the AP:

President Barack Obama said Friday the entire nation is grieving for those slain at Fort Hood, and he urged people not to jump to conclusions while law enforcement officers investigate the shootings.

Obama met Friday morning with FBI Director Robert Mueller and other federal leaders to get an update on what they’ve learned. Thirteen people were killed and 30 others injured in the shooting rampage at the Texas Army post on Thursday. The suspected shooter is an Army psychiatrist; his motive remains unclear.

"We don’t know all the answers yet. And I would caution against jumping to conclusions until we have all the facts," Obama said in a Rose Garden statement otherwise devoted to the economy.

"What we do know is that there are families, friends and an entire nation grieving right now for the valiant men and women who came under attack yesterday," the president said.

In other words, don’t jump to the conclusion that Hasan was a radical Muslim. We don’t want to get hasty and start blaming Islam! Sorry Barry, we know his religion was the cause — too late.

Get ready for the ultimate whitewash of this entire affair by the mainstream media and The White House.

Every conceivable reason will be given for why this traitor did what he did except the actual one — his religion.

It’s not politically correct to blame Islam for anything in America. The television and print media will go out of their way to avoid mentioning that Hasan is a Muslim. A Muslim who thought other Muslims should fight back against the U.S. military in Iraq and Afghanistan. A Muslim who made internet posts sympathetic to suicide bombers. A Muslim who yelled “Allahu Akbar” before gunning down 12 colleagues at Fort Hood.

With the exception of Fox News, the media is a disgrace.
