Posted on March 10, 2011 at 11:14amWe deserve the truth and not political correctness. Blind profiling my hind end. I don’t give a damn if a catholic, muslim, presbyterian, etc, etc. commits murder or intends to commit murder – get the off the streets and out of the country. Yemen is nice this time of year.

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 11:13amI find the same principles of the nut jobs in this world and now more so our own left in the country keeps repeating themselves.
There is no mainstream group I familiar with that doesn’t seperate Radical Islam with Islam. Find me examples of those groups and I will change my belief.
The power hungry and dictators in the muslim world use lies and propganda to try to convince the US, Christians, Jews, etc… are the enemy. This is the usual tactic to get the people to hate someone more then them and therefore becoming powerful or the default leader with all the power.
SAD PART is democrats in this country do the exact same thing. Lie and demonize anyone that when we say radical Islam or Terrorists we are talking all Muslim, NO ONE BELIEVES that, but the left uses there rhetoric to form political groups they can then control and manipulate to vote for them giving them power.
Meaning in many ways because the tactics and the basic result are the same the left in this country can be compared in practice to some of the most radical idiots in this world…. sad…. even sadder that normal democrats cannot see what their own leaders try to do to every group, etc….

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 10:49amameriKan marxists keeps telling US constantly how the US keeps “wimmens” down-trodden.
Report Post »But they (ameriKan marxists) have no problemo w/ the religion of Islam that really keep it’s “wimmens” as virtual slaves.
Personally I am tired of hearing about Radical Islam/Islamist.
IMO. Islam is Islam. It does not need an adjective to describe it.
95+% of terrorist acts around the world are from those who belongs to this religion.
But then again. 95%+ can be wrong.
It could be higher.
Dr. Jasser seems like a fairly good guy.But deep down, I am suspicious of any person who is of Islamic religion.
A religion founded by a child molestor, who copied many of his writing from old Jewish writings and changed a few words here or there. IOW. Ol’ MOhammad the child molester was a plagiarist.
A religion who treats it’s women like **** and kills them if they are raped because it Must be their fault. Or a religion that insists if one does not convert, one must be killed, become a slave and pay massive taxes.
Massive Taxes? Sounds familiar, doesn’t it?
Do you thunk?
Could it be? Say it ain’t so.
Have we been already converted and don’t know it?
Damn!! I thought Rod Serling was deceased

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 12:25pmSQUIRRELGRAVY,
I agree!
Yes there is posturing, but today’s testimony is worth hearing.
BECKWILL is correct when he says Dr. Jasser is amazing. But so is Mr. Bibi and the American Somali testifying about what happened to him and his family at the hands of CAIR and his own Imam!
This hearing will shine the light on WHY so called “MODERATE” Muslims have not been heard from.
CAIR has been called the “MUSLIM MAFIA”. They are ,I think, a big part of the reason for the silence.
I just wanted to add that I called Con. Sanchez, Con. Ellison, and “The Mouth that Roars” Sheila Jackson Lee. I let them know that their comments were ridiculous.
I also called Con. King to thank him for having the COHONES to hold these hearings. He has received so many threats.
They need to hear from us. They need to know we’re watching.
I hope others here will call too.Have at it. The Capitol Swtchboard number; (202)224-3121.

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 10:36amlove the left on this, comparing king to mccarthy. Funny i can watch or listen to any muslim call for the murder of every jew and dest5ruction of israel. Polls among muslims world wide have kill all the jews at 94%. we have leaders of muslim countries calling for destruction of the U.S. jihad against infidels. We can search the middle east and find almost all countries pledge jihad against us and the ones who don’t pledge finance the terrorists. at our universities we can listen to american muslims openly hate us, search the web and you can find millions of american muslims openly hating us, but rep King is the hateful guy? i would consider Rep king closer to Churchill then mcCarthy or chamberlain. Ignoring the problem only makes it worse.

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 10:52amWhat is the ultimate objective of these hearings? Deportation of radical muslims? Islam is in opposition to our Constitution. What we need is a national law, outlawing sharia, or a state law in all 50 states outlawing sharia.
Report Post »DrFrost
Posted on March 10, 2011 at 11:22amI’m going to have to agree with Ishka4me on this one. Go anywhere in the world and you can see Islam teaching hate and intolerance. Go anywhere where sharia law rules and look at how people are treated (especially women and children). This is not a case of a few radicals giving Islam a bad name. Here we have a few moderates trying to improve it’s image. But no one dares risk crossing the PC line and calling a spade a spade. (Of course, muslims are also well know for killing people who criticize their religion…. that may have something to do with it as well.)

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 11:31amThis Idea of good muslim ,bad muslim is just plan horsesh@t!. I think back o the “good germans” who did nothing to stop the Bad germans from millions being gased. They in some ways were worse than the nazis. The good german could of and were able to stop it. Then turn away. they did nothing. Most of the military ranks where not pro nazis, They did nothing. The were a well read nation. they did nothing. so where the such good germans. The muslim world is the same down to the last drop of blood that “the bad muslim” shed. Why cause they do noyhing to stop it. It is not fear if you got the number that the left say are “Good muslim” 1.8 billion muslim. where are the courts to stop the bad Muslim in Iran,Iraiq,chad,Etc. If you read the polls The good muslim dont see the Bad muslim as bad,but freedom fight for god. 60+% agree with muslim law for the state. IF YOU DONT STAND AGAINT THEM YOU ARE STANDING WITH THEM,BY YOUR SILENT!

This celebration (minus AK 47′s) was denied by Passaic County Sheriff Jerry Speziale, but I happen to know an eye witness (a business owner in Paterson) who saw it take place.

Posted on March 10, 2011 at 9:56pmPeople forget the McCarthy was proved right, and socialists/communists still overrun the State Department, and no most of our government. McCarthy gets a bad rap because of the self imposed Hollywood “blacklists”, the that came about by the investigations of the House Un-American Activities Committee, not in the Senate.
Sen McCarthy was no saint, but he is blamed for a lot of things he had no part in.

Posted on March 11, 2011 at 8:23amWhen I heard AL Green rant about the Ku Klux Klan and saying”You haven’t suffered…” I thought the
Report Post »democratic Party has done beguiled the boy. The Klan was begun by Democrats to scare free blacks and to terrorize any who might be attracted to the Republican Party. By contrast America has periodically had threats made by certain Muslims since the days when we were yet a British Colony
and sent our ships past the Barbary Coast.We had to break their sword in1798,1805-and then again with the Ottoman Turks during WWI and II .Then certain Muslims have been a threat ever since the
Democratic Party Administration encouraged the Coup in Iran.And the threat has continued.But when I hear Obama, or Older,or their boy Al Green yell “You haven’t suffered…”I can only think How completely IGNORANT these people are.How despotic and evil and divisive they are.
