Maybe I'm mistaken, but presidents don't normally comment on murder cases where the perp has been caught, tired, and sentenced to life w/o parole. After reading the article at your link, I didn't see where there was any national controversy over this case. Murder is a state crime, not national.
Laughable.
Tell that to CNN who is probably making their best ratings this year based on a "state" murder case gone national.
I muust have missed the diplomatic tradition obliging heads of state to correspond with friends of foreign-born murder victims. Am I to understand that if a US citizen is killed in the UK, his/her friends have a claim on a letter from Her Majesty or at the very least the PM?
Mmmm, I see, so the Obama apologists think it is important that he apologize to a Democrat activist because she was called a name by a radio personality. Or to get involved in a police matter in Florida. Yet no response is needed to the family of a foreign national killed here.
How wrong I was to expect to find Obama apologists here.

Of course it is right next to the tradition obligating heads of state to get involved with talk radio hosts, and state crime investigations. Of course we know Obama only acts when he is obliged to.

Nope. He only comments on disorderly conduct arrests when he doesn't have all the facts but is still positive that the police acted stupidly.
I had rather hoped in such a flagrant example of poor behavior the left might join with the right to recognize it. I am slowly coming to the conclusion that there is nothing he left (except perhaps, not being left enough) will condem him for.
For Christ's sake, will you guys get a grip??? Do you realize how many murders happen in this country every day, and how many tourists (unfortunately) are among the murder victims???
Obama derangement syndrome...
Did the past Administration respond to every letter that was received? nooooo it didn't.
And you call lwnjs hypocritical.
Seems to me that shoe is firmly planted on both feet.
The self righteous bovine excrement piled here is staggering.

Of course Obama elects to insert himself in some muders and not others. As the family of the murdered tourists correctly point out, he inserts himself for political gain. Of course he wouldn't respond to the tourists family, there was nothing for him in it.
