Presidential Excuses for Major Hasan

I want to begin by saying that my family prays for President Obama every day. While I did not vote for him, I want him to lead with wisdom and common sense. Thus far, my desires have not been realized.

With that said, I was a little put aback when I read of his comments admonishing us to not jump to conclusions about the murderer of thirteen people and the injuring of over thirty at Fort Hood. He asked us not to jump to conclusions when he did just the opposite in the Skip Gates incident involving Cambridge Police Sergeant Crowley. Remember how he said “the police acted stupidly?”  Well, how did Major Hasan act? Now we know that e was in contact with radical Islamic factions on the internet. Future revelations will show that this was as much an act of terrorism as what happened on 911.

Mr. President, will you please give Americans the benefit of the doubt to the same degree you give our enemies?
