(Paraphrasing) “Obama is a good candidate because he is a light-skinned African-American … has no Negro dialect unless he wants to have one.”

Has this country gone mad? Obama IS a light-skinned African-American and he has no Negro dialect unless he wants to use one to bond with fellow Blacks.

These are factual statements; you remember the truth, don’t you? We’re still allowed to state the truth, aren’t we? These statements are only as racist as the mind of the reader. You can assume and guess as to what they may mean to others, and you can make them mean anything to your own shriveled, little mind, but taken on their face they mean nothing.

Get over yourselves race mongers. This is a non-story and make-do news. This dog don’t hunt. I don’t like Harry Reid anymore than you do because he is part of the machine forcing us into a nanny state but all his comments amounted to was shrewd political analysis. We are allowed to talk about race and its effect on this last presidential, aren’t we, or is the new norm to pretend no racial differences exist? Is black the new white and nobody told us? Where in the hell are you idiots going with this? Stop playing with my head!

Now you can write volumes about what Harry’s comments meant but they were not racial or racist in any form and I’m not going to allow you to limit my language in this way. I guess this falls under “politically correct” language and I’m not going there. Politically correct thinking and laguage hurts my head and is going to get us killed, i.e. the Fort Hood Bomber.

Let’s argue the merits of skin shade and language skills some other time because they are pertinant, but not now and here. Harry Reid is a destetable little varmint but allow him to speak the truth without putting it in the politically correct box and skaking it until some weird requirement or limit is set on our ability to speak truth.

Again, if you want to make everything about race, limit truth, set crazy standards and skew our language keep it up. I’m putting my hands over my ears on this one and yelling, STUPID, STUPID, STUPID.

This bill is unconstitutional, punitive and a theft of the rights of citizens. It will open the door to intrusions on our personal lives and government dictates we have yet to imagine. What we take forgranted today may be arbitrarily gone tomorrow by a bureaucrat’s whim. Government doesn’t have to make sense and it often doesn’t.

Once the government is able to tell us what is best for us, and force us to comply by law, the litigation will begin. The mindless will line up to line up while the rest of us view this farce and scramble to undo it. If you are not good at being mindless and compliant you will be punished. If you are not good at obeying the whim of government enforcers you will be punished. If you are not good at keeping your mouth shut you will be punished. Obama doesn’t want innovators, he wants followers.

The bandwagon is already set up for the victory celebration of government over man. The fanfare will be broadcast. It will be heralded as an achievement next to the building of the pyramids of Egypt.

It marks the enslavement of man under government control, a control to the extent we have never seen before. Some will not be able to abide it.

I’ve never seen this country more divided on important issues. That old saying about two sides to every story has become three or four sides to every story and lines have been drawn across which rabid, entrenched supporters will not pass except by bribery and coercion.

The fact we accept bribery and coercion as a system by which our government operates is pitiful. Words like honorable and trustworthy and honest mean nothing as we see some of the political scum rise to the top, present themselves and make a joke of their actions without apology.

Our political system, especially our Congress, has become an institution where greedy, power seeking men install themselves for life or until they have cheated and lied enough to make their crimes noticed. What they do is beyond shame and beyond conscience yet they walk away with the goodies while we look on because their fellows will not challenge them lest there come a day when they are in the same boat.

This Health Care bill has brought out the worst in people and displayed some of the worst behavior I have ever seen in government or among mankind. The Dems have used every nasty tactic like name calling, mocking, denigration, slander and lies to stifle the other side. Naturally retaliation was bound to follow.

As we arrive at the 11th hour of the passage of this bill it’s hard to believe such a disaster is going to be imposed on this nation by Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid and President Obama. The dirty, malevolent tricks that made this bill possible will taint it forever and stand as a marker in history when the Constitution was overthrown and citizens captured in the government snare.

Nothing new about that. Joy Behar is a far lefty who loves to have quasi-celebrities and retired movie stars on her show. They do the te-he, ha-ha mocking thing and tell each other how great they still are.

Joy is at her best when interviewing gays or lesbians. The camaraderie is instantaneous and Joy is non-threatening. In fact Joy appears asexual in a matronly, almost frumpy way except for the fact you can tell she went to great lengths to look her best.

Obama, Brennan and Napolitano have left me angrier than I was before they they spoke. Obama’s mea culpa consisted of “the buck stops with me,” Brennan was concise and less than memorable, and Napolitano says she will travel to meet with her counterparts in other countries.

Well Janet, you don’t have any counterparts. No one on this earth could make comments as stupid as yours. Not only was it stupid to say, “the system worked” but it was so self-serving and aimed at mitigating blame that it actually sickened me. If people are ever fired for saying something stupid then you should be.

What left me gaping at my TV was Obama. His comments were specific to the issue and he said, “We are at war with Al-Qaeda.” Not so, Mr. President. We are at war with every Muslim who wants to kill us for Allah and many are now in the United States. You brought them here.

I wanted you to at least touch on the domestic problem we now have with Muslims who practice jihad. The Fort Hood shooter was one of them and the five (5) D.C. area men who ran away for jihad were others. These Muslims were so child-like, uncertain and malleable they had to consult Muslim clerics before they acted.

Q “Dear Muslim Imam, I live in the United States and want to support my Muslim brothers. Can I kill my fellow Americans?”

A “Certainly my Muslim brother, the more you kill the better, but say a prayer first so that Allah can watch your good works and aid you.”

I realize you are careful not to anger Muslims around the world but I flinch when I realize I, personally, am in the same boat. We don’t want to anger people who may hop a plane to kill us, do we? Catering to killers bothers me, how about you?

What bothers me more is that you’ve let these people into my country, even after you saw what happened in the U.K. with riots and threats and bombings. We had the usual murderers,cults, perverts and thieves but now I have to add radical Muslims to the list. I somehow resent this more than I hate our ordinary misfits and psychopaths.

I think I resent it more because our criminals were already here and I understood them. It’s hard for Westerners to grasp killing for religion. We got over that centuries ago by realizing it was useless and futile. Besides, here in the U.S. you can believe as you please as long as it doesn’t infringe on someone else’s rights.

Now we are faced with making Islam grow up and change but it’s difficult. Maybe, in the end, the most we can do is protect ourselves. Radical Islam is almost a death cult with psychopaths running the show and they don’t care who they infringe upon. The seeds of radical Islam lie in the teachings themselves. Christians may sing “Give me that old time religion,” but Muslims have never left their old time religion and they are supervised, five (5) times a day, so they never forget.

What are you going to do about our domestic problems with terrorists and those prone to become terrorists? What about Muslims in general and how they press and keep pressing for special rules? How are you addressing it in our military? Can we expect to hear more about Sharia law and honor killings? Will communities be backed up against the wall with their demands? Is it smart to deny their special requests, for their religion, from the beginning?

You have a big problem here at home, with worse to come if the U.K. is any example, and you don’t even talk about it.

Is my brother my biological brother? Is he my brother in Islam? Is he my brother in combat? Is he every man?

If I have to go off to war and fight Muslim extremists I’d certainly want to know who the Muslim next to me thinks his brother is. I’s certainly want to know if he has my back when jihadists attack. I’d certainly want to know if he’s going to hesitate and put me in danger. I’d certainly want to know if he’s conflicted in his loyalty.

Does the American military even ask these questions? Do they investigate the mind-set of all Muslims in the military until they are sure they have the truth? Do they check, and double check, and triple check? If they do then how in hell did Nidal Malik Hasan stay in and get promoted? Even his classmates knew something was wrong with him.

Look at their faces. The underwear bomber looks almost angelic. He’s a young, fresh-faced child. Hasan — well, he looks like the nice guy next door. The Nigerian boy tried to kill almost 300 people for Allah. Hasan killed 13 and wounded 30 for Allah. Neither is insane unless you want to call all Muslim jihadists insane.

Both of them are religious zealots steeped in the teachings of Islam and they act because they believe Islam commands them. Indoctrinated? Brainwashed? Yes — to some extent, but jihad has many different meanings. It also means an inner struggle against evil. Jihad can be a spiritual struggle of the soul. Jihad can be a Holy War.

You would be smart to find out what your Muslim friend is thinking and if he is involved in any kind of jihad. The U.S. military should not put its fighting men in deadly, precarious positions where they are unsure of who the enemy truly is. THE VERY LEAST THIS GOVERNMENT CAN DO IS IDENTIFY THE ENEMY.

Maybe Hasan was right. Maybe Muslims should be conscientious objectors. Hasan said as much in one of his presentations to classmates.

PERHAPS THE U.S. GOVERNMENT SHOULD RECONSIDER THE IMMIGRATION PRACTICE OF BRINGING CONSCIENTOUS OBJECTORS TO THIS COUNTRY. Islam is a community as well as a religion. Wherever Muslims go they will try to change the community to fit in with their religion and their beiefs. THEY COME TO THE U.S. AND WANT THE U.S. TO CHANGE FOR THEM.

My news just called the Christmas underwear bomber the first terrorist on Obama’s watch. I can’t believe it. Who and what was Nidal Malik Hasan at Fort Hood? I’m not sure if he was the first on Obama’s watch but he surely did the most damage, killed the most people and was potentially the most embarrassing to U.S. government but Obama ignores him as if he never existed.

Wasn’t Nasan, the Fort Hood Shooter, a terrorist? Wasn’t he committing an act of jihad — killing and willing to die for his religion? Wasn’t he a Muslim? If we put them all together we can easily label Hasan a MUSLIM JIHAD TERRORIST. Now let’s preface that with the words HOME-GROWN because he was born and raised in this country.

Now we have HOME-GROWN, MUSLIM, JIHAD TERRORIST. That’s exactly what Nidal Malik Hasan was to me. To his cousin he was a “good American.” To Barack Hussein Obama this terrorist doesn’t exist. This country can’t afford any more “good Americans” like Nidal Malik Hasan and I challenge Obama to recognize the truth of the matter even though it’s “politically uncomfortable” and demonstrates we have failed at recognizing the enemy.

In this country we give the enemy a good, respectable job in the military, coddle him, ignore his jihad tendencies, even though he states them, and continue not to challenge him, always in politically correct mode, lest we offend him in any way because he is a Muslim.

Witness the five (5) young DC area Muslim boys who went off for JIHAD and got caught in Pakistan. We are growing our own jihadists. Will Obama recognize that fact or is he too busy PUSHING HIS AGENDA OF HEALTH CARE FOR EVERYBODY at the expense of SOME; health care for everybody while ignoring our national security.

I don’t get it. Why are our media experts allowing Obama to write his own script and history? Doesn’t truth matter anymore? Who needs health care if they’re dead?

And as for Chris Matthews of MSNBC, another te-hee, ha-ha denigrating comic of common sense who isn’t even on par with Nancy Pelosi in jugglling truth: Obama sucks at national security. There Chris — you surely understand that and it has nothing to do with one political party being perceived as being tougher on national security. Obama can’t even recognize the enemy in his face — or he doesn’t want to. You pick Chris because you’re such a glib, slick defender of ignorance.

With backroom deals, Christmas Eve votes, procedural votes in the middle of the night, bribes, partisan madness and broken promises which amount to lies, you, Mr. Obama, are building a Frankenstein Monster of a bill that the public is not behind and can’t afford.

Instead of strengthening our national security you have spent all your time on your nanny state agenda because the imposition of your agenda on the American people is your number one priority and you will do whatever it takes to get Obamacare passed.

Transparency — a lie. Bi-partisanship — a lie. Debate — a lie. If posing nude would guarantee passage of this bill you would do it because YOU WILL DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET OBAMACARE PASSED.

Meanwhile, can you say Muslim jihadist? Can you say terrorist with regard to the Fort Hood shooter? Can you force yourself to speak the truth when it’s before your very eyes?

The Muslim terrorist said, “There is no higher calling than to die for my religion.” Do you understand that? How can you justify bringing more Muslims into this country until you can identify the enemy and know what’s in his head?

They come here brainwashed and indoctrinated, some with the best of intentions, and later turn on the country that took them in. Witness Nidal Malik Nasan, morally confused but not insane. His loyalties were conflicted but in the end he chose to kill and die for Allah. Political correctness and an inability to understand the nature of “jihad sickness” invited the killings. MY GOVERNMENT ALLOWED THE SHOOTINGS THROUGH IGNORANCE.

Will Obama ever be able to use the words “jihadist,Muslim and terrorist” in the same sentence? He still only half gets it.

Obama still wants to close GITMO because he believes it is a “propaganda” tool for terrorists. I believe it is a better propaganda tool for us. When it’s closed down, if they even notice, they will all have a good laugh over the way Obama jumped through hoops to please them and ease their concern. We can’t have those Muslim terrorists, who are trying to kill us, upset. No, Obama the blushing pleaser can’t do that.

Obama, like many educators, is book smart, not people or common sense smart. He has been so concerned with dropping ObamaCare on us that he has failed to do what is most important: protect us.

If he thinks we’re looking forward to his trials he’s dead wrong. I sat in a courtroom for 22 years listening to trials and they’re usually slow, boring and a lot of work. If you have high profile defendants the security around you is smothering and makes everyone edgy. Squeezing the press in makes everything worse. Before the trial even starts you have to listen to pre-trial motions where lawyers try to position themselves for advantage.

Just picking a jury can be a long, drawn out struggle. And the expense — do you realize how costly it is to have a judge, a law clerk, a secretary, a court reporter, an interpreter, bailiffs, twelve jurors and two extra as alternates, and extra security working for you and that doesn’t include what the D.A.’s office is spending on collecting evidence, travel, securing witnesses and on and on and on.

What is it with Obama? Why do we have to prove anything to terrorists? They do not belong in our courts and they should not have our rights. They should be summarily tried, convicted and sentenced before military panels.

President Obama, you can stand on your head and twirl yourself around but the terrorists won’t care. All they care about is dying for Allah and going to heaven where wonderful pleasures await them.

Oh wait, the big fish love to win and they will lie, steal and kill to do it. They love head games and many of them have been educated abroad, even in our own country. They will use children and women as pawns, especially as suicide bombers, and sleep like babies in spite of the blood they spilled.
