President Obama is "outraged" by North Korea's attack on a South Korean island, White House deputy press secretary Bill Burton said Tuesday.
Obama plans to call South Korea's president, Lee Myung-bak, on Tuesday, Burton said, adding that Tom Donilon, his national security adviser, called Obama at 3:55 a.m. to tell him of the attack.
"The president is outraged by this action," he told reporters on Air Force One. "We stand shoulder to shoulder with South Korea."

“We stand shoulder to shoulder with South Korea.”
Yiddish for “Good luck with your little problem”
Ah, the much talked about 3AM phone call. Wish Hillary was there to answer it instead of Obama.
First I ths this was Ollie North calling Sheila Jackson Lee a moron, but then now...
It is Bambi telling SK Prez “To show them what good Christians we are, how ‘bout let’s turn the other cheek...”
How nice. I picture Obama being super busy with golfing and everything, but it looks like he's hoping to make some time to maybe call this guy and chit chat. Obama is so awesome!!!!
The president is outraged by this action...
He is about to throw a big hissy fit on you, N Korea.
“Hey as long as I got you on the phone do you have time to hammer out that trade agreement?”
Ha—Hillary is every bit as mealy mouthed as Obama. All this will result in is more kow-towing to NK in a misguided attempt to make them play nice. China and NK are having a good chuckle.
Zero to the Norks — “STOP or we’ll tell you to stop again!”
Obama instructs Holder to file a lawsuit!
The North Koreans are, no doubt, shaking in their boots. Or slippers as the case may be.
I had forgot about the 3 AM phone call from back during the election. But now, all of a sudden, there it is!
What’s worse? Obama acting like the frightened child, apologizing profusely, or responding like he’s got a pair, at which he’d be totally inept for lack of practice?

BS... What does Obama know about standing shoulder to shoulder with anyone? Where did Obama ever fight or serve?
Any real shooting war breaks out, Obama will be no where near it.
The BS is knee deep.
maybe they’re more interested in buying some US exports now?
Oh boy, maybe he’ll send him one of those really, really, really, effective stiff letters. That would make us soooo proud!
I’m tellin ya he’s outraged and he’s gonna make a phone call.
The problem is, nobody on the world stage takes this guy seriously.
