Does anyone not yet know that not all Muslims are evil, or even bad? Many are concerned with those who are, and they are the problem.
Obama doesn't know that no one thinks all Muslims are bad.Does anyone not yet know that not all Muslims are evil, or even bad? Many are concerned with those who are, and they are the problem.
I never had one, at least not for terrorist sympathizers. You notice how the woman kept having to explain basic words to that terrorist apologist? Words like "incompatible"? Yeah. These terrorist sympathizers are tearing Germany apart.GET THE FACTS!
For you perhaps, but that is not the case "on the ground".
You evidently have no idea whatsoever why these people "walked" from Turkey to Germany. Walked.
Most have spent the last few years eking out a living in UN Refugee Camps in either Turkey or Lebanon. A newer group is waiting at the Turkish border (closed to them) escaping the bombing by both Russian and Assad (president of Syria). And another 10 died yesterday trying to cross the straights that separate Turkey from the island of Lesbos (Greek).
And what about the IS? Yes, there are quite possibly amongst them some IS-jihadists. But is that a sufficiently good reason to prevent thousands of people from escaping a war-zone?
What ever happened to your sense of compassion? Or is it that you never had one ... ?
She's not a professional commentator. She's a 75 year old woman who just got off a train and the Muslim guy next to her was flashing a crude photo asking her if she liked it. That, coupled with the problems Muslims (she claims) are bringing to the neighborhood caused her to speak out. I commend her for it. Nor was she intimidated by the Muslims standing beside her. Although one young Muslim continually interrupted her, and seemed unaware of recent history, they kept their good nature and moved on.The old lady seemed to make overgeneralizations in the video. As for Muslims that are a problem, I for one am concerned with the guys the young shallow Albanian Muslims was hanging with. They were looking her in a disturbing way after she was talking.
Obama's not alone. He and his sycophants always feel the need to explain that not all Muslims are terrorists. Won't someone just give him a shout-out that we all know that and isn't it time to finally move on?Obama doesn't know that no one thinks all Muslims are bad.

Moreover those dummies who continually feel the need to point this out do so in a manner that suggests their insight is breaking news.
His power is all domestic..
I've never heard of that. If all Muslims were terrorists the war would be over much more quickly.I'm not convinced that everyone does know that. For some, the term "Muslim terrorist" is a redundancy.
Americans may be living in relative poverty but they are certainly not poor. Too many Americans seem to feel that living the good life is their birthright and that others should be paying for it. And of course many politicians will support this nonsense in order to get elected.I agree. So why is Uncle Sam wasting 20% of its budget on the DoD? (Close to $600B this year.) Guns or butter. Guns or butter. But not both ... and not 15% of American men, women and children living below the Poverty Threshold since 1965. That's 50 million people. The combined population of California and Illinois. We need more "butter-spending" ... not "toys for our boys". And especially not that boondoggle of an F-35 ...

The US is at war right now even if many Americans don't seem to know it. Islamists aren't going to give you any free butter.
It's also unrealistic. Another version of the American Dream is to have the freedom to be the best you can be. That one is still available to everyone, though some personal responsibility is necessary to achieve that dream.The "free lunch" is in fact the notion that any middle-class American can have his dream come true - 2.3 children and a house in burbs paid-for by a good job that never ends until retirement. In fact, that "dream" is universal.
That's right, but politicians will tell the people they can do otherwise, that 'the rich' will payfor example, and on too many occasions people will believe them. Whose fault is that?The fact of the matter is that life does not always go according to plan; and economies gyrate up 'n down, up 'n down, up 'n down. Each new generation (every 30 years) seems to have to learn this lesson-of-life.
There doesn't see to be a trend in that direction.We've made a lot of progress since, so there is hope we, as a nation, will understand one day economic up- and down-turns are a fundamental part of living - just like the change in seasons.
Tomata tomato. The fact is that war is a normal state, that there has never been international peace and never will be. The best the civilized world can do is keep it contained.The US is not "at war", which has become a useless dysphemism - the proper word is "conflict".
If there were no defense spending the US would be quite a different nation than it s now, and that would true of the rest of the world as well.There will always be such conflicts somewhere on the planet, but why that should be the constant refrain of a government justifying aberrant Defense Spending is beyond imagination. Our priorities should be elsewhere, and that elsewhere is obvious to the naked-eye.
Orwell was brilliant but we also understand there is constant war. Following the collapse of the USSR Richard Nixon predicted that the mid East and Islam would then attempt to fill that vacuum, and we can see he was right. That is the natural order of things, and Darwin's theory still applies.Orwell's predictive "1984" is way, way behind us; there is no BigBrother reminding us about a constant-war out on the periphery of the nation. And there is no need whatsoever to spend 20% of the national budget on Boy'sToys (that the girls nowadays can also play with), when the nation's plight is actually far too much abject poverty. (50 million Americans below the Poverty Threshold.)

Then it's a good one.The American dream is the same as the US Army slogan.
A few do, most don't.Quite often it's the rich who get paid. They do have the money, and therefore the power.
