The commander-in-chief finally gets around to regretting the terrorist murder of an American serviceman on US soil and the wounding of another.

“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.”

Passive voice. No acknowledgment of the confessed motive for the attack. Utter unwillingness to call it terrorism -- or, more appropriately, jihad. And no condemnation of the violent tendencies once again demonstrated among members of a certain population.

Oh, yeah -- and he's still going to suck up to the "religion of peace" which provided the ideological basis for the attack on US troops on US soil.

Too bad these guys weren't a couple of abortionists -- it might have caught Obama's attention sooner and moved his heart more.

Well, at least he's made clear where his priorities are.
