I saw a bumper sticker this summer that said America-1 Osama-0.

I understand the message and someone was trying to make a buck off what happened, but....huh? Is that what some think...that we "won?"

If only Muslims had a sense of humor maybe we would see bumper stickers that say:

America-1
Osama- 72 virgins

this is the media's fault.

When the consulate was first stormed, and the flags were replaced with islamic flags, I was reading CNN and they gave the Obama Admin statement of
“efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims.”

which, after reading that, pissed me the fucl< off.

If that Obama Admin statement was about Terry Jones and not about the consulate being attacked... then the way the media portrayed it was wrong.

I had the same reaction to the statement as Romney did.

but, lori, you can't actually have an effect on things...romney could. he should know not to pop off before he gets all the details, because they matter.
as the article said, the part about 'feelings' was issued before the attack occurred.
now he has to backtrack again, and it's no one's fault but his. former presidents keep mum on things like this, with reason. perhaps candidates should as well? he's not in charge, a question on what his policy would be in a situation like this is something to ask as a rhetorical question. and he should have said something like, it's a developing story-until more is known, i have no comment. beats looking like a neophyte, or having to apoligize, or just plain looking like he's clueless-again.


just saw this, on the romney campaigns 'odd response'

http://www.slate.com/blogs/weigel/20..._protests.html

romney decided to condemn pre-attack statements as tho they came after the attack. and they had time before their 'embargo' ended to get it straight.

i do agree that obviously his voice is a lot louder than mine.. and I agree politicians should sit and think before they speak (then again... what good does it do when they sit and think also?).

but I'm telling you, the media seems to mix and match so much it is hard to keep anything straight. Plus the whole thing about them reporting what they want to report, not facts and truths.

Used to be considered an act of war when a enemy attacked an embassy, including replacing flags with their own and responded to as such.

Now it's verbally condemned. We're acting like a bunch of pussies pretending the U.N. is our big brother and our enemies know it.

And how would we finance this additional war Del? Go play World of Warcraft to get it our of your system. Let the adults discuss realworld issues with consequences and mitagating circumstances.

Those responsible for attacking need to be killed one way or another. We also need to stop all support to any country Islamic or not until they grow out of the stone age.

When a country treats their own women as abbused pets how can they be expected to be civil to outsiders?

Antitrust32 09-12-2012 11:51 AM

One cool thing about being an American is that I can talk about my disdain of Christianity and other religions.... and I do not have to keep looking over my shoulder wondering if I will be murdered. Sure Fred might protest my funeral, but really, he's a nothing / nobody who is just trying to use the constitution to sue people for money... that's all.

the muslims who riot and kill over a movie about their dumbshit religion? nothing but pure scum.

isolate ourselves. Protect the fucl< out of our borders and country. Let them kill each other. Oh yeah, and build our own stuff in the process

But hey, I'm a crazy libertarian.

I really really hope arab spring does not lead to nuclear winter.

Even Australia.
