Top Republicans denounce attack on Clinton aide

Are you comparing white supremacists to Muslims?

No, I'm comparing white supremacists to terrorist orginizations. Nice try to sucker me into an infraction, though.
 
It's no more racial profiling than zinging a white person for having connections to a white supremacist group

Ok. Did I ever criticize / not criticize that? No. Now you are straw manning on a position which I've never mentioned. Nice.

Im glad we agree that most Muslims are not extremists. And any suggestion of such is dishonest bigotry.

No, just presenting a different scenario that would be more exceptable to some folks who are getting their panties in a twist over this.

Ok. Well I'd certainly be consistant so, either they're both wrong or they're not. No if, ands, or buts about it.

Kinda like this comment?

he is indeed.

many Conservatives, like Oliver North, believe that ALL Muslims are Jihadists, as Jihad is paramount to Islam.
 
Issues like this, remind me of what it was like to be a Jew in the USA, 50 years ago.

back then, it was Jews & Catholics, who were facing such bigoted suspicion.
 

It is about anti-Muslim sentiments. Abedin is attacked because Bachman claims "her family has ties to Muslim Brotherhood", note that's her family, not Abedin herself. That's like WWII, if your family is Japanese, off you go to the "internment" camp, doesn't matter what your history actually is or whether you're guilty of anything or not in Bachman's deluded mind.

If anyone was seriously concerned about foreign influence on the US government, look no further than Israel, but that's not the real concern here. If anyone want to get rid of religious influence on the US government, look to Christianity, but that's not the issue here. The issue is that Bachman is a bigot who thinks she can benefit from the anti-Muslin hysteria amongst her followings.
 

It really hilarious that you guys only started this with the Muslims since Bush left office .Before that you were all like little doggies nibbling Bush beans. You must have been hypnotiized by scenes like these. How many times di Bush tell you all....I only kiss good muslims and "I don't worry about where Bin Laden is". Down boys or Buah is going to get out the rolled newspaper.

If an aide had family connections to the Ku Klux Klowns, folks would be calling for their immediate removal.

Here's the reality: if this dude has family in The Muslim Brotherhood, he has to go. The same would hold for anyone. This cat doesn't get a free pass because he's Muslim.

These dumbass photos again?

You do understand that in the ME, it's customary for men to hold hands while discussing business, or politics. Right?
 

which Muslim Brotherhood? each nation's party is different with a different agenda.

how close is the relative? is it a distant cousin he never sees or talks to?
 

It's not outside the realm of possibility that Bachman is medically psychotic either, can we just put her in a ward base on the fact it's not "out of the realm of possibility"?


In alot of ways Sharia law is worse than Naziism but it appears that many Liberals are just fine with this type of person being influencial in our goverment. Maybe they are fine with Sharia as well.

Until you have shown that Sharia Law in anyway supersede the Law of the United State, you are just speaking nonsense.



You should take that to the conspiracy theorist section. The FBI just successfully put a would-be Muslim terrorist in jail, they seem to be doing their job just fine.

Is there a Muslim Brotherhood that is pro-American? I'm thinking, uh...no.

The article also mentions the MB in Egypt and those goofballs sure as hell aren't a pro-American/pro-Israel outfit.

you didn't answer my question.

which MB is it?

is the family member close...or distant?

we certainly can't fire someone for having a crazy distant uncle or cousin.


....unless of course the real goal is to keep the White House "Muslim-free".
 

DO you have any evidence to back that up, or do you enjoy publically slandering and disrespecting a member of the United States Congress?

depends, are you assuming the guy belongs to a white supremacist group because he's simply a white christian, or is there something that actually raises suspician?

Very important question here
 

With such standards, every POTUS would be impeached every three months...... You expect perfection in an imperfect world. Its time for you to grow up.

Sorry, but NONE of those things are even remotely constitutional encroachments. One of the main jobs of any chief executive (POTUS or corporate CEO) is to deploy the limited resources in the manner he best sees fit to achieve the objectives of the organization. If the POTUS had unlimited resources, he could do a whole lot more than he can when people want to limit government. There are lots of laws on the books, they can not all be enforced, nor do you really want them to be... Presidents, governors, mayors, sheriffs, police chiefs, presidents of homeowners associations all pick their battles. It is the very nature of their jobs to make these decisions.

Please, explain the difference. Thanks.

Father, mother and a brother.
 

Do you know what a security clearance is?
 
There's nothing wrong with questioning an aide's security clearance. Especially an aide to the SECSTATE. This is a sensitive post and there is no room for thin skin, nor political correct hyperventilating and no one should be above question.

There's something wrong when she's a target because of her religion. If all they care about is "foreign influence", a lot of people with ties to the IRA and Israel would have to be questioned and investigated everyday.
