And Yet Obama Couldn't Care Less

From the Houston Chronicle: A  federal prosecutor in a major case in Houston against the notorious Aryan Brotherhood of Texas prison gang has withdrawn over security concerns in the wake of the weekend killings of a Dallas-area district attorney and his wife, said a source familiar with the case.
Jay Hileman, an assistant U.S. Attorney, had been assigned to the case.
Houston defense attorney Gus Saper, who represents alleged Aryan gang leader Terry Ross Blake, confirmed prosecutor Hileman notified him he was no longer on the case.
"I'd say it's not a regular thing. You know people get transferred and moved around the (prosecutor's) office, so people get moved on and off cases," said Saper. "But I would say this situation is probably a little bit different from all of those."
State and federal authorities are investigating whether the killings of Kaufman County District Attorney Mike McLelland and his wife, along with the January slaying of his assistant, Mark Hasse, are linked to alleged threats by white supremacist gang members to retaliate against law enforcement.
The weekend slayings at the prosecutor's home have prompted stepped up security measures to protect a number of Texas prosecutors, including Harris County District Attorney Mike Anderson.
The federal racketeering case against 34 members of the racist gang, a three-year investigation spearheaded by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the FBI, was announced in November by Assistant U.S. Attorney General Lanny Breuer and U.S. Attorney Kenneth Magidson.  http://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/U-S-prosecutor-quits-Aryan-case-citing-security-4404136.php
Obama will comment on the Treyvon Martin murder case but not the killing of prosecutors in Texas and how it affects the criminal justice system.
What a pathetic excuse of a president we have in the United States.  We ought to be ashamed that the GOP couldn't produce a cadaver to beat this incompetent fool of a president.
