Today In Bama World

Is your insane theory that, through silence, President Obama has expressed his approval of the murder of American servicemembers when performed by extremists of certain religions?

Is that really how twisted you've become?

You'd have to spend a lot of time making sense in these forums for me to switch to believing you're sane.

Amen brother!

Sounds like everyone is longing for the good old Clinton years

DO NOT put words in my mouth.

You went right to the liberal playbook. Marginalize, Trivialize, Demonize.

Standard tactic from Obama's mentor, Saul Alinsky.


Fort Hood shooter, Army recruiting office shooter in Little Rock, Christmas bomber, Times Square bomber and now the US Airmen shooting in Germany.

Obama is the weakest president we have ever had. He does not know how to respond to the Muslim terrorist threat. He is over his head.

That is what I said. Please do not call me names. Please do not speak for me.

With all of the previously mentioned problems, the govt is headed for a shutdown this Friday & the crisis in Japan what did the bama do this weekend - PLAYED YET ANOTHER ROUND OF GOLF.

The absence of leadership continues

Yeah, yeah... we get it. You just plain don't like Obama.

Apparently, he had originally planned to fly to Poland to attend Lech Kaczynski's funeral. He had to cancel due to grounding of flights in Europe. But let's just say he could've flow over there, and therefore didn't play golf. I'm betting that you still would've bitched about that too.

You probably would've posted something like, "With all the troubles in the world, what did Obama do this weeked? Hobnob with a bunch of dignitaries over in Poland. Eating finger sandwiches at some funeral instead of solving the problems we elected him to solve!"

If it makes it easier for you, you could abbreviate "I just plain don't like Obama" to merely "IJPDLO."

Six letters. That would really save you some typing and us a lot of reading. :-)

In 1983, after terrorist bombers had killed 241 of our Marines, soldiers, and sailors in Beiruit, President Ronald Reagan chose to.........withdraw our troops from Lebanon.

I'm just curious; is that how we should respond to terrorists?

I quoted you.

I used your own words.

What you wrote suggests you are insane. Maybe you're not, but what you wrote suggests you are.

Wow, talk about wandering all over the landscape on this thread. And some of the responses, on both sides, would be laughable if not so serious.

Once again I consider myself a moderate conservative. Also, for the record, I have worked terrorism and counter-terrorism issues.

First the allegation that President Obama did nothing after the latest attack I find, quite frankly, repugnant. Not only did the President immediately appear and condem the actions in no uncertain terms, and remind the nation of the sacrifices our military makes, the FBI was immediately dispatched to Germany to aide in the investigation.

There is usually much frustration following any attack, terrorist motivated or not. The problem with modern terrorism is it tends to be transnational in nature. In the late 80s when Iran was caught during the so called "tanker wars" mining the gulf direct military action could be applied, and was, effectively.

However the shooter in Germany was a long time German resident and an ethnic Albanian from Kosovo. So, should the President order a predator strike against a mosque in Germany? Threaten Albania?

In the case of the Times Square Bomber the bomber turned out to be a Pakistani born US citizen living in Connecticut. He was arrested, tried, and sentenced to life in prison. What should the President have done? Go after the man's wife and children still in Pakistan? Occupy Hartford?

There is a great frustration with having great power and not being able to apply it. But even more dangerous is having great power and wielding it without restraint.

I am not a big fan of the current President but his response in the shooting of the Airmen in Germany and the actions of the US towards these acts have been measured and appropriate.

What would those who are critical have done that wasnt in the German case?

Damn it, Marc. Life and issues in general seem so much less complex when I listen to the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Randi Rhodes, Sean Hannity, Ed Schultz and Bill O'Reilly.

I hate it when you make us think.
