Obama’s State Department (run by Hillary Clinton) has contacted the family of al-Qaeda propagandist and recruiter Samir Khan to “express its condolences” to his family. Samir Khan a right hand man to Anwar al-Awlaki, was killed along with his jihadist buddy in an air strike in Yemen that took place on September 30.

A Khan family spokesman even went so far as to say he felt State was not only apologetic for killing Khan, a terrorist enemy of America, but for not giving its condolences sooner. By way of background, Khan was an American citizen who maintained an anti-American web site while he lived in Charlotte, North Carolina. Two years ago, he left for Yemen to help produce Inspire, an English language blog. In an early introductory essay, Khan described himself as “proud to be a traitor to America.” He was also the author of Make a Bomb in the Kitchen of Your Mom.

“Shocked, shocked I say” (as in the line from Casablanca) that Obama has more sympathy for a terrorist traitor than for the real Americans who are victims of Khan, of Ayers, and of the rest of Obama’s heroes.

I didn't realize this was first reported in The Charlotte Observer, or I would have posted the full story. Here's more:

" An official from the U.S. State Department has called the Charlotte family of al-Qaida propagandist Samir Khan to offer the government's condolences on his death in a U.S. drone attack last week in Yemen, according to a family spokesman.

"They were very apologetic (for not calling the family sooner) and offered condolences," Jibril Hough said about the Thursday call from the State Department to Khan's father, Zafar.

The phone call came a day after the family released a statement through Hough that condemned the "assassination" of their 25-year-old son - a U.S. citizen - and said they were "appalled" that they had not heard from the U.S. government to discuss their son's remains or answer questions about why Khan was not afforded due process.

On Friday, State Department spokesman Harry Edwards confirmed to the Observer that the call had been made, but said "privacy issues" kept him from offering details.

Hough said the Thursday conversation lasted a few minutes.

"It wasn't just 'I'm sorry' and hang-up," said Hough, who added that the phone call included no discussion of the status or condition of Khan's remains."

I’m hoping the first Executive Order President Cain puts in place is a retraction of all of Zero’s apologies.

EXECUTIVE ORDER #1: “Na, na, na, na, nahhhh, na...We take it all back (follow up by sticking out tongue).”

I'll be surprised if the local Charlotte Politburo doesn't name a portion of the outer loop (I-485) for Samir Khan.

Gov Purdue will attend the ceremony to cut the ribbon.

snip..

A heretofore secret cable dated Sept. 3, 2009, was recently released by WikiLeaks. Sent to Secretary of State Clinton, it reported Japan’s Vice Foreign Minister Mitoji Yabunaka telling U.S. Ambassador John Roos that “the idea of President Obama visiting Hiroshima to apologize for the atomic bombing during World War II is a ‘nonstarter.’”./snip

Was not aware that Khan was also a US citizen.

Khan described himself as “proud to be a traitor to America.”

And I'm proud as an American that you're dead, Khan.

0bama wanted to get across to the terrorists that the best way to beat America was with phony poses and sneaky tactics like those used by 0 himself, as taught by Saul Alinsky, rather than brute force violence. The time for violence will come, but only after the “bitter clingers” have been disarmed—which was the real purpose of Fast & Furious.

Obama says one thing to Americans: “We got the Bas*ard!”.
Obama says the opposite to Muslims: “We are so sorry this happened.”

Where else do we see this kind of behavior?

Maybe someday he’ll get around to calling Brian Terry’s family with his vacuous apologies.

I guess that makes me an 0’ptimist.

Forget what I said...

His parents wanted to know about his remains. I would have happily explained to them that their traitorous son’s last few seconds were like being the pig in an open pit pig roast. I’m sure that his sacrifice as one of Mohamed’s stupid lackeys would give him enough points to qualify for the 72 virgins bonus reward(not necessarily female or human as substitutions are allowed, per the fine print).
