Where Are The Republicans?

Since Rev. Terry Jones the pastor of a church in Gainesville, Florida with a congregation of 50 or less, has decided to burn Qurans on Sep. 11 some democrats, two Generals and even the Vatican have come out publicly to denounce his actions. Attorney General Eric Holder, David Axelrod presidential advisor,Hillary Clinton Secretary of State, General David Petraeus, and General Ray Odiemo have all come out against the act calling it dangerous, disrespectful and expressing fears that the action may incite violence against our military and American citizens.

Despite the statements made, Americans have yet to hear from Republicans in Washington or anywhere regarding this matter. Their silence is deafening, despite the opinions expressed by General Petraues and others. Where are the Republicans and why haven't they made a statement? America is waiting for at least one of you to dissuade this Pastor from doing this? Why are you allowing such a grave issue to become a political football? What happened to Country First Sen. McCain, Sara Palin, John Boehner, Mitch McConnell, Glenn Beck,Rush Limbaugh, Michelle Bauchmann and others? Where is your proud, patriotic concern for our Military and our Country? Your silence is an indication that you personally and politically condone what Reverend Jones has planned and as Americans, you should be ashamed of yourself.
Update:
Sarah Palin posted the following statement on her Facebook page Wed 9/8/2010 about 5pm ET. "I would hope that Pastor Terry Jones and his supporters will consider the ramifications of their planned book-burning event. It will feed the fire of caustic rhetoric and appear as nothing more than mean-spirited religious intolerance. Don’t feed that fire. If your ultimate point is to prove that the Christian teachings of mercy, justice, freedom, and equality provide the foundation on which our country stands, then your tactic to prove this point is totally counter-productive." Statement from Glenn Beck from his blog. What is wrong with us? It’s just like the Ground Zero mosque plan. Does this church have the right? Yes. Should they? No. And not because of the potential backlash or violence. Simply because it is wrong. The more I reflect on what happened on 8/28 the more I realize the amazing power of GOOD. ... Burning the Koran is like burning the flag or the Bible. You can do it, but whose heart will you change by doing it? You will only harden the hearts of those who could be moved."
