Congressional leaders have ordered the flags at the U.S. Capitol lowered to half-staff  to honor the five victims of last week’s shooting rampage in Chattanooga, Tenn.

Finally,Obama has ordered all flags to be lowered to half-mast… What took him so long?

FOX reports:

“Last week, five brave service members were murdered in a terror attack in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Out of respect for their courageous service and sacrifice to our nation, flags at the U.S. Capitol are being lowered to half-staff,” Boehner said in a statement.

The House will also observe a moment of silence Tuesday evening for the victims.

McConnell said, “[T]he U.S. Senate’s thoughts are with their families and loved ones, and with all those who protect us here, and around the world.”

The shooting occurred at two military facilities. So far, the White House has not ordered its flags to be lowered. The White House has ordered flags lowered on several occasions in the past, including after the tragic mass shooting in December 2012 at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn. The directive at the time ordered flags lowered, “As a mark of respect for the victims of the senseless acts of violence perpetrated on Dec. 14, 2012, in Newtown, Conn.” Asked about the matter on Monday, Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters that Obama has offered his “sincere condolences to the families of those who were killed in this attack.” He added, “I would anticipate that you’ll hear the president discuss this a little bit more in his remarks at the VFW.” Obama is addressing the 116th Veterans of Foreign Wars convention later Tuesday morning. The shooting has prompted governors in at least a half-dozen states to authorize National Guardsmen to take up arms to protect recruiting offices and installations.

Lowering Old Glory is a sign of respect for the five troops and their families and Obama should have ordered this immediately before going off into his Marxist, tax-payer funded romp with his so called ‘daughters’ or whatever the hell he is doing. He really has shown his true colors lately. He hates America. Period…

God Bless. Dean James III%AMERICAS FREEDOM FIGHTERS
