Report of Fort Hood Terrorist Attack Faults FBI

The face of political correctness and Muslim appeasement

Obama's political correctness and Muslim appeasement are killing Americans. Team Obama refused to call Hassan's massacre a  Islamic terrorist attack, instead they labeled it "workplace violence"  so not to offend Muslims.
