SHOCKA! NBC Chicago says something critical of the President about his remarks following the Ft. Hood massacre

Looks like the media is finally waking up:

President Obama didn’t wait long after Tuesday’s devastating elections to give critics another reason to question his leadership, but this time the subject matter was more grim than a pair of governorships.

After news broke out of the shooting at the Fort Hood Army post in Texas, the nation watched in horror as the toll of dead and injured climbed. The White House was notified immediately and by late afternoon, word went out that the president would speak about the incident prior to a previously scheduled appearance. At about 5 p.m., cable stations went to the president. The situation called for not only his trademark eloquence, but also grace and perspective.

But instead of a somber chief executive offering reassuring words and expressions of sympathy and compassion, viewers saw a wildly disconnected and inappropriately light president making introductory remarks. At the event, a Tribal Nations Conference hosted by the Department of Interior’s Bureau of Indian affairs, the president thanked various staffers and offered a “shout-out” to “Dr. Joe Medicine Crow — that Congressional Medal of Honor winner.” Three minutes in, the president spoke about the shooting, in measured and appropriate terms. Who is advising him?

Anyone at home aware of the major news story of the previous hours had to have been stunned. An incident like this requires a scrapping of the early light banter. The president should apologize for the tone of his remarks, explain what has happened, express sympathy for those slain and appeal for calm and patience until all the facts are in. That’s the least that should occur.

Yes, I saw the comments and I thought the shout out, before making the sober announcement showed a lack of class on the President’s part and his cabinet. Of course, the stupid ass liberal bloggers are trying to draw a rather silly moral equivalent; trying to say that Bush did the same thing on 9/11. Which is wrong. Bush sat there and listened to those kids, so he would not SCARE THEM. But, of course, you cannot explain that to a idiotic liberal, because they’re terminally stupid.
