In his Cairo speech yesterday, President Obama declared, "I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear."

Is that why Obama's statement on the Islamist terrorist attack in Arkansas--which was buried by the White House--made no mention of the terrorist's motivations, unlike his statement on the murder of George Tiller?

Does fighting against negative stereotypes include covering up the truth?
