Yea! become like North Korea!.. poor and paranoid!
Political Isolationism versus Social Isolationism...seems like a pretty big difference to me.
Cant have political isolationism without social isolationism.. or economic isolationism. Either you are a part of the world or you are not.
America was very good at being policical isolationists without sacraficing our social or economic positions in the world pre WWII. Think we can do that again.
Furthermore, we can participate on the world stage through the UN. We do not need to be their spear and shield anymore though.
Hardly..
Like it or not the movie is a provocation, they knew what the reaction would be and they wanted that reaction. They have complicity in the reaction to their actions.. pure and simple.

1. You have any evidence whatsoever that the filmakers wanted US dead?
2. And no, not hardly.
Or maybe these assholes should stop being sensitive.
Honestly, there is no way to defend...
"This film maker offended me, let's go kill people who had nothing to do with it".
I don't care if you're a Christian, Jew, Muslim, Bhuddist... Jedi. There is never an excuse for this crap.
So...what's Obama going to do about one of his Ambassadors being murdered?
My guess is...nothing.
This IS an election year, after all.
Come on we are not that good at trade!What? Dude, we've been bloody imperialists since we were founded. War and trade are the two things we are really good at.
What would you do? Nuke Benghazi? Attack the Libyan government who had nothing to do with this? Piss off more people by attacking innocents? Let me guess you would all of the above and totally over react...

How about you start by closing the embassy permanently, throw the Libyan consulate staff out of the United States and tell them that until they have their citizens under control we will not be dealing with them in any way.

Yea, and all other countries do the same when an American citizen kills a non American citizen in the US.. man by months end end there would be no embassies left in the US!
You took the words right out of my mouth.
But...I really don't think Obama has the balls to make a move like that...especially in an election year.
I agree but there is also no excuse to making this movie.
For the love of all that is holy... in the clip on Youtube they portray Mohamed as a liar, homosexual, paedophile, greedy and bloodthristy.
They KNEW what the reaction would be.. anyone with half a brain would know that.. hence they knew that people would get killed by making this film.
I condemn the actions of the moron scum in Libya and Egypt with every breath I have.. there is NO PLACE for reactions like this... protest yes, but violent protests.. HELL NO!... , but I can not just sit by and let that American-Israeli jihadist scum get off scot free for what he and his followers have done.
The Left cries out for more censorship of free speech - no surprise here.
Of course the same rule governing free speech does not apply to Muslims who openly want to murder Jews and Christians. The reason for this is that we don't expect responsible behaviour from Muslims. We know they are uneducated, or mis-educated, and cannot respond to criticism in any logical or responsible way, therefore we have to remain silent rather than point out the Islamic elephant in the room.
While ignoring problems and simply hoping they might just go away is the strongest leftist trait, and always has been, history has shown us that a free people must stand up to murderous ideologues of whatever religious or political stripe. We cannot stay silent while these murderous scum murder women, children, Gays, or those of other faiths. To self censor is the way of the Left, but not that of a civilized people.
Is Sam Bacile a leftist or on the right?
