The deafening silence

| No Comments

There has been a very loud silence coming out of Washington D.C. these days.

Marc Thiessen has noticed and comments in The Washington Post:

Obama’s silence on Kathryn Steinle killing is deafening
After Trayvon Martin was killed, President Obama spoke emotionally about his death, declaring “this could have been my son.”

After Michael Brown was killed, Obama promised to ensure that “justice is done” and declared: “We lost a young man, Michael Brown, in heartbreaking and tragic circumstances. He was 18 years old. His family will never hold Michael in their arms again.” He even sent administration officials to attend Brown’s funeral.

After Freddie Gray was killed, Obama walked out to the Rose Garden and declared: “We have some soul-searching to do. This has been going on for a long time. This is not new, and we shouldn’t pretend that it’s new.”

But after Kathryn Steinle was killed July 1, allegedly by an illegal immigrant with seven felony convictions, Obama said . . . nothing.

No promises of “justice.” No calls for “soul-searching.”

His silence has been deafening.

Because it does not fit their narrative. This narrative is crafted from half-truths and utter lies and misdirection and the narrative must not be examined too closely or anyone would be able to see it for the falsehood that it is.

I wonder why the flags at the White House are not flying at half-mast for those Military men who were murdered by the Islamist terrorist a few days ago - again, does not fit the narrative.
