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."

Well, if he's not on the golf course, you can surely find him on the campaign trail - which is where he was today. BS'ing the blue collar workers.
He plans to call him? Plans to call him? Shouldn’t he have already called him?
S. Korea had better make preps to fend for themselves on this one. ozero is just too busy today.
Hah!
Can anyone here imagine our French metrosexual president being “outraged” over anything but a bad latte or someone calling him a name during recess?
> Ah, the much talked about 3AM phone call. Wish Hillary

Why? They are both committed communists and America-haters.
I’m inclined to believe his communication was more along the line of his conversation with Bobby Jindal after the oil rig issue: “Don’t criticize me on TV!”
By the headline, I was thinking Obama must have gotten Dr. Who’s cellphone doodad to make a long distance call like that.
S.Korea embarrassed Obama.
He probably told the N.Koreans to bomb the S.Koreans.
That's the way I'm seeing it. Why should we get bent out of shape about North Korea walking over South Korea, when South Korea refuses to trade fairly with us? They enjoy annual $11B-14B trade surplus with the US, while we spend who knows how many billions each year keeping US troops on their border.
If they want to continue to enjoy the umbrella of US protection, it's time to start opening their markets, immediately. I'm no longer eager to borrow money from China to protect South Korea from North Korea. It's insanity.
By the time his gofers set up the teleprompters and dial the telephone for this ninnyhammer, Korea will be unified.
He PLANS to call??? He hasn’t called yet?
"I'll come down on you like stink on sh!t."
"You take the arty, and you'll by God like it! Just like we're doing to our sheep here with the TSA molestations!"
By the time his gofers set up the teleprompters and dial the telephone for this ninnyhammer, Korea will be unified.
I read it as Obama calls Robt. E. Lee over North attack.
Expected an Onion article.
The nk pigs want to publicly compromise us, and they have succeed.
Both Bushes, Reagan and even Clinton would be addressing the nation about the five square mile artillery emplacements in the north they rototilled with harpoons. Then explaining to the nation why the pentagon is going to need a few extra billion this year for "inventory maintenance"
obama will send them a couple billion dollars backed by chinese bond sales, and a few cargo containers of corn/wheat... And whatever else they want. We are playing an end game with a mouse.
