Posted by Staff on November 5, 2009 |

President Barack Obama responded Thursday to the shooting at the Fort Hood military post that left 12 dead and 31 wounded.

“My immediate thoughts and prayers are with the wounded, and the families of the fallen, and those who live and serve at Fort Hood,” Obama said during an appearance at the Department of the Interior. “There is no greater honor, but also no greater responsibility for me than to make sure the extraordinary men and women in uniform are properly cared for, and that their safety and security when they are at home is provided for.”
