The conflict of Islam vs. everyone else is far far from over.

The smell of weakness.

Duh.

When you are a Muslim it is cool to be angry.

As usual, looks like the Palestinians lead the pack in sheer, hate-filled lunacy.

I know! Let's give 'em a billion bucks!

Nonsense! The MSM has assured us that The One and his stable of talking unicorns will placate the Muslims!

Thank you, Barrack Hussearl Carter for Delivering the United States into this Grand Mess.

What a maroon!

Still a lot of clenching, you say.

I guess the Obama Diazepam hasn't set in yet.

By "strict Shari'a law in every country", they are talking about the Muslim equivalent to "the Rapture, Jesus's return and the New Jerusalem". They haven't thought through what Shari'a means. They're worshipping magic.

This just proves that we're not surrendering fast enough.

/Obama doctrine

hmmm...yes, so terrorist suicide bombers are a "defensive" tactic...(I wonder how many people in the UK, Canada, etc., also believe that -- it's one of the Media's on-going and long-standing "messages" in sympathy with terrorists.)

These dirt bags can't even keep up with the opinion polls. If there is an increase in approval of attacking us, bring it on boys, you're not trying.

re: #13 J.S.

That message is profoundly morally corrupt, it is one of the worst lies anyone could spread, it damages us.

Did anyone think otherwise?

Obama clearly gives off the bloody fish signal and the predators smell blood in the water. It's not a whole lot more complex than that. The real alphas are making their move.

In my opinion, one of President Bush's most influential attribures was communicating that alpha position and then ithe bad boys knew intuitively that Bush is an alpha and would fight hard. Even Saddam had said he wasn't afraid of the father (Bush Sr.) but he was afraid of the son, W.

If I was a Muslim (after getting the mandatory labotomy to believe the Mo-man) I would be angry all the time too. All the women are covered, you always see other countries having everything while they have nothing..

They will love us when we leave Iraq

It is ironic that the very people we have spilt our blood and spent our treasure on over the past 10+ years are the ones that hate us the most. Look at all of our foreign entanglements since Clinton...Somalia, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan...all of these endeavors were to help the local population (and our own interests many times as well). How much aid do we give the Egypt? Pakistan? The Palestinians? So, what do we get for all of this? Hatred x100. If there was a way to detach ourselves from this world and roll back inward...I'd say let's do it and let these ungrateful assholes get what they deserve. Unfortunately, there are elements within these societies that like to come over and kill us, and the Europeans, and Indians, and Balinese, etc, etc.

So, until that stops, we will be stuck dealing with a backwards, ignorant, racist and hate filled people who hate our guts.

So, to all of you in the Muslim world that hates our guts. I give you a hearty FOAD and GFYS

Maybe we're approaching their clenched fists the wrong way. Maybe we need to tell them that clenching causes cancer, or makes their 9 year old wife not love them.

The good news, of course is that large majorities in Muslim countries reject killing American civilians. But that's about where the good news begins and ends.

The large majority doesn't have the guns.

I wonder why they didn't poll Iraq or Afghanistan.

I'll give the Muslims credit for this much: they are right about the shared interest of non-Muslim people, to "weaken and divide Islam". A strong, united Umma isn't in anyone's interest: Christian, secular, Hindu, Buddhist...

... Ask a Parsi Zoroastrian about that some time.

Whether keeping Islam subdued is an actual stated goal is another matter. It should be US policy to weaken and divide Islam. I'd go so far to say that under Bush, this was our policy. I don't think it is anymore, because we are currently led by mountebanks and fools.

Interesting graphic also: preventing the rise of extremist groups is not seen as a US goal. There is, I think, a cognitive dissonance here. The US is fighting Islam and we support Bin Laden; at the same time, the US goal is not to stop "terrorists".

I bet you they think "Shi'ites" when they are asked about extremist groups. Sunni extremist groups are given a pass. In particular I doubt they see the Ikhwan or even Hizbu'l-Tahrir as extremist.

Nice! Middleton, MA is always cheap too and that is on my Saturday errands route.

Our legislature's answer for everything has been to raise taxes - well the well is running dry. Our Governor Carcieri is hopelessly overrun by the %85 democrapic legislature but he still fights and has actually won a few. They are listening - cuz the people are telling them they have to. Even though this state is hopelessly dhimmie (look at idjit Kennedy) they see that the tax level is out of control. They chase business out so fast they don't have time to shut the door on the way out. My feeling is that if my wife and I are put out of work we are outta here.

re: #140 Chicago Blonde

He said the Mafia and terrorists didn't exist? Moron. At least he saved you time - that's the hypothesis of the movie, that Al Queda (hope it's spelled right, don't want to look the scumbags up) and the like are bugagoos created by right-wingers to keep us in line and the war machine alive. OTOH, I did learn Qtub hated us for our lifestyle, in the "raunchy" Cleaver-esque 1950s. When a moonbat snivels we're all at fault I trot that little morsel out to shut 'em up.

And BTW, your avatar is adorable.

Here is why he hated Americans:

the American girl is well acquainted with her body's seductive capacity. She knows it lies in the face, and in expressive eyes, and thirsty lips. She knows seductiveness lies in the round breasts, the full buttocks, and in the shapely thighs, sleek legs — and she shows all this and does not hide it.

From what I see, the highest approval (24%) and corresponding lowest disapproval is in the PA. Yeah, the line is longer, but that is a measure of responses.

The highest disapproval percentage is in Egypt, where we send 2 billion/yr.

The RNC put Jindal up for their response. Steele doesn't want to "speak ill of a fellow Republican".

But yeah, the fact that the RNC has settled on Jindal, shows that the GOP has settled on being a creationist and regional party.

I don't think giving Jindal the rebuttal indicates the GOP has settled on him. I see it as more of an audition. If he'd knocked it out of the park, he would have risen in the ranks of contenders. As it is, he didn't do well, and it may be a long while, if ever, until he's given a similar high-profile spot. Meanwhile, the search goes on.

re: #133 loppyd

I'm not sure he's the one we're looking for either. I was just wondering...

Other than his position on ID, are you happy with how he has governed your state?

Are you infuriated that he is not taking some of the stimulus money?

I live in MA so I am infuriated at everything my governor does.

When he ran against Kathleen Blanco the first time, he lost. She epitomized the good-old-boy network here, the old way, and she needed to go. He lost. When he ran again we were determined that he would win this time and he did. Support was phenomenal. (This was post-Katrina, which played a large role.)

Since his election, he seems like a balloon that is slowly deflating. The soaring rhetoric, the words of a "new Louisiana" ...have not borne fruit. Yet. He nearly had a revolt on his hands with the whole congressional pay raise issue. He seems to be still trying to get his feet underneath him and figure out where to put his energy.

OTOH, TFK made a post yesterday that was dead on, about our ports and special interests/corruption from north to south, from New Orleans to the Texas border, casinos, big oil, etc ...and how Jindal has managed to remain untouched by any taint of corruption (that has ALWAYS managed to attach itself to our Governor).

As for the stimulus money, I admire him for rejecting it, although I will believe that when I see it. Haley Barbour, Gov of Mississippi is making the same noises, as is the Gov of Tennessee. We will see on that one.

The ID think is what infuriates me. The state of the schools and the power of the teacher unions piss me off.

Other than that, how are you feeling? I know you've been under the weather for quite a while. :-)
