Its true. The democrats, or more essentially their attitude of complacency and naivte, are what caused 9-11. the arabs who committed the acts were just pawns of the vast right-wing conspiracy.
The conservatives conspiracy plans are very organized to include all the major airlines, the military , the jews, etc , and yet the MSM gets only tidbits of info here and there to expose this conspiracy in the form of a “docudrama” by michael dipshit moore. meanwhile , the good image of arabs/muslims is tarnished again undeservedly. Boo-hoo Can anyone characterize their lamentations as anything more than plain stupidity and ignorance.
New recruiting tool for islam: Join islam and leave your brain at the door!
May 22nd, 2007 at 7:14 pmMuslims have been historically at war -as in waging violent jihad- with:
Christians.
Jews.
Bahais.
Hindus.
Buddhists.
Sikhs.
Animists.
Atheists.
Opposing sects of Islam.
This has led to the deaths of millions of humans over the centuries.
Islam demands submission. It is what the word means. As practiced by a sizable minority, it amounts to the most bigoted, hateful, violent and irrational “religion” on the face of the planet currently.
I think of this as a sort of Global Ku Klux Klan. We can ignore them until they grow so strong as to force us to submit or we can face the danger now. Our liberal democrat colleagues ignore the ongoing murder of gays, women, black Africans by Muslims but warn us of homophobia, sexism and racism from the middle of the US.
Allah help us. We may all want to start reading the Koran.

May 22nd, 2007 at 7:46 pmI believe it
May 22nd, 2007 at 7:54 pmFUCKING INSANITY!!! I would like to see the look on their faces when they get to hell and there are no virgins left.
May 22nd, 2007 at 8:34 pmFOOD FOR THOUGHT:
If you own a Bible look at the Maps section. Tell me which of the countries the Apostles evangelized are today Christian countries. The answer… NONE! Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Turkey etc. ALL MUSLIM COUNTRIES!!! A religion that didn’t even come about until 600 years later.
WAKE UP AMERICA!
May 22nd, 2007 at 8:42 pmI just love it when the loonytoon idiot liberals break out that “vast right-wing conspiracy” crap. Shrillary loves to use that one. I see it different than that, to me it’s the left’s passive aggressive, or maybe “aggressive aggressive” psychological offensive to get conservatives back on their heels. It’s really part of there vast LEFT-wing conspiracy and oh so manipulative.
May 22nd, 2007 at 9:44 pmIslam is not compatible with civilization.
May 22nd, 2007 at 11:39 pmIslam is NOT a religion! It is an ideology (idiotology is more suitable) a vast number of “converts” are liberals who already hated the jews and America. I know one recent “convert” who was and still is an atheist, but he has campaigned against zionists for most of his young life, and has defended the likes of Hamas as victims of a vast Judeochristian american conspiracy. He was ripe for “conversion”!. When they brag about their growing numbers, I laugh, because i realize that belief in God, and faith in his will are the furthest from the muslim creed.
Look at the prophets actions and words throughout the Koran and hadith and often quoted by islamists everywhere as they rape and pillage lands, force conversions through humiliating of minorities, levying heavy taxes and abuses against non muslims, while destroying other religious places of worship.
This is communism on steroids. because unlike communism, islam has stated that its “religion” is to reign supreme and no other religion is exist.
Communists are more covert. Islamists let us know clearly their objectives then lie to the MSM who never bother to contrast it with previously documented statements.
see the video on you tube entitled “Islamic executions and brainwashing/lies” below:

another video of the democrats colluding with muslim fanatics. The dimcrats who have successfully demonized christianity in their own party have embraced the false religion of Islam.

May 23rd, 2007 at 1:13 amIslam is compatible with civilization-they just need an elightenment period.
May 23rd, 2007 at 2:01 amRe: “Islam is not compatible with civilization.”
Neither is Liberalism.
May 23rd, 2007 at 5:09 amRe: The Minimum Wage
I believe that the minimum wage is the issue that completely and totally defines Liberalism.
In terms of economics, the minimum wage is what is known as a “price floor”. The free-market price of any commodity is determined by what people are willing to pay for the commodity (the demand) meeting the price for which people are willing to sell the commodity (the supply). Price floors (and price ceilings) cause a disparity between these two points, and when there is a disparity between these two points, adverse conditions follow.
In the case of a price floor (in this case, a minimum price of labor), the result is 1) increased inflation, and 2) increased unemployment. Simply put, if an employer is forced to pay his employees more than he is currently paying them, he must either 1) raise his prices to cover his costs (inflation) or 2) fire some of his employees in order to keep his prices competitive (unemployment).
Now who is hurt most by increased inflation and unemployment? Poor people. Think about it - do you seriously think that raising the minimum wage has any effect on rich people?
But it is easier to say “you can’t live on the current minimum wage” than to explain that raising the minimum wage hurts poor people more than it hurts rich people.
That’s the LIE. And Liberals would rather perpetuate the LIE to get votes than do what is right for their constituents.
Okay, now to price ceilings. Last year in Hawaii, the legislature set a maximum price that stations were allowed to charge for gasoline. And what happened? When the price of gas became too high to sell, there was no incentive to lose money on it, so stations didn’t buy it when the price was too high; as a result, there were shortages. And when the price was below the maximum price, stations charged MORE than usual in order to make enough profits to sustain themselves in the event that they wouldn’t be able to sell gas when the price rose above the maximum allowed price. As a result, people in Hawaii paid MUCH MORE THAN the average price per gallon of gas in the U.S.
Anyone having passed a high-school economics class should know this, but Liberalism isn’t based on FACTS, only emotion.
Want to whether any politician is worth his/her salt? Ask him/her his/her position on the minimum wage.
[climbing down off soapbox]
May 23rd, 2007 at 5:30 amMiss Mindy, what do you suggest we do in the meantime? I for one want to keep my non-practicing Catholic head right where it is, thank you very much. Fortunately we have the Jews to again be chosen to be the canaries in the mine. The Jews are our early warning system. When the Jews start to disappear then we can stop chatting.
May 23rd, 2007 at 5:47 amI spoke with a man from Sweden yesteday and asked him about the growing muslim immigration problem. He confirmed everything that Pat posted earlier. Muslim immigrants are straining Swedish society, they’re draining the economy and they’re driving crime rates to unprecedented levels. The worst thing is, is that no one in Swedish politics or in the press will say/do anything about it for fear of being labled a racist.
We’re suffering from the same problem in the US right now. No one will step-up and say the muslim cabbies in Minneapolis are wrong for evicting passengers with alcohol, yet thousands jumped to defend the muslim woman who refused to remove her head scarf for a driver’s license photo in Florida. America cowers in fear of being called culturally intolerant. This fear gives rights to a minority of people that abuse the majority. We need to re-open the two-way street, I’m tired of living a standard that is cast aside in the name of religious freedom.
May 23rd, 2007 at 6:46 amOpen your eyes………..go buy some weapons and teach your wife and children how to defend themselves cause you are going to need them. I for one am not going to go down without a fight.
May 23rd, 2007 at 7:10 amWe should start to use their religion against them. Wrap the dead bodies of our enemies in pig skin for burial. (Even the pieces that are found of the suicide bombers.)Isn’t that how the Ottoman Empire crumbled in WWI? We used the weakness of their religion against them. I mean they use their religion to justify destroying us, why not return the favor?
May 23rd, 2007 at 7:58 amIT’S OFFICIAL: 60% OF US MUSLIMS ARE MOONBATS:
“Relatively few Muslim Americans believe the
May 23rd, 2007 at 8:24 amU.S.-led war on terror is a sincere effort
to reduce terrorism, and many doubt
that Arabs were responsible for the 9/11
attacks. Just 40% of Muslim Americans
say groups of Arabs carried out those
attacks.”
OK, here’s a good one. Amnesty International release its annual report, of course, USA and Israel are the main culprits in human rights abuses in the world. What a bunch of #%*#!%&# idiots. In their section on “terror” and “civilians in the line of fire”, no mention of maybe Arab beheadings and using civilians as cannon fodder. Truly, these people are living in a dream world. Clueless, clueless.
May 23rd, 2007 at 9:01 amCall me what you want. I have no use for the religion of peace. If that makes me a hate monger…so be it. We should throw them out with the illegal aliens and be done with it. But we won’t and they’ll out breed us too and in 50 years, my grand daughters will be force to wear burkas because the politicians today are spineless.
May 23rd, 2007 at 10:02 amWhat the hell would you expect from people who pray with their butts in the air? Brainy don’t work because too much blood rushing to it.
Blind and stupid.
May 23rd, 2007 at 11:12 amWendy,
I completely agree. I say we start getting creative. And as a fan of Deadliest Catch, can’t we institute “far north” prison ships for terrorist? Instead of Cuba, those caught waging jihad could cool their ardor by invoking Allah as they knock ice off the bows of the vessels? Just a thought.
May 23rd, 2007 at 11:13 am“-they just need an elightenment period.”
We keep on the way we are and the only enlightenment that’s gonna work is the holy glowin’ form of Trident REB’s raining down upon their thick barbarian skulls.
May 23rd, 2007 at 12:37 pmmindy ,
please explain to me how an enlightenment will make islam compatible with civilisation?
the problem with secular human rights groups with regards to islam thay dont even consider religious pronouncements regarding islam in determining why muslims do the things they do. Liberals today have the same problem, they are familiar with the bible and christian traditions but are clueless about islam and choose to remain that way.
The root of the problem is the quran, then the sunnah, then the ulama(clerical bodies), then the individual muslims. The only enlightenment for islam would be to throw out the quran and sunnah.
May 23rd, 2007 at 6:26 pmSpeaking of Amnesty International, on their website today, they’re conducting a poll on who has the worst human rights violations: Darth Vader, Hobgoblin, or Dick Cheney. I know I shouldn’t be surprised, but I am, a little bit. How does an organization like AI have any credibility after pulling crap like this?
May 24th, 2007 at 4:48 amSteven D, nails it!
I’m an Econ major (amongst other things) and he is absolutely right. What he says is strait out of any freshman econ textbook that everyone SHOULD understand (if they wern’t brainwashed).
May 24th, 2007 at 9:28 amThe 9/11 hijackers WERE Arabs…not Iraquis,,not Afghan…but Bush cant attack Saudis…they are big capitalist business trading partner!!!
May 24th, 2007 at 3:30 pmI love Amnesty I…some of my left wing friends dont care for AI since they have critricized China for human rights violations. Yes China is right up there w/ USA ..when it comes to torture & human rights violations.
The truth is the truth!!! Chinse have killed peaceful Bhudist people living in Nepal.
May 24th, 2007 at 3:33 pmSteve D u r partially rite…..s/b livable wage…not minimum wage…need at least $20 per hr to pay basic living expenses…right?
May 24th, 2007 at 3:35 pmDenis–you obviously have no experience in travelling around and seeing the world and knowing people. If you did, you’d realise how idiotic AI’s blatherings are, how idiotic to criticize the leading FREEDOM PROTECTORS in the world. Without freedom, you’re just another brainwashed slave. Don’t compare China commies with the USA–they are polar opposites. Just because China has embranced capitalism as a way to create wealth doesn’t mean they understand freedom. NO MENTION in AI’s report about suicide bombers and beheaders–ya think they violate human rights?????????????????????? How about their state sponsors Syria and Iran??????
May 24th, 2007 at 8:32 pmdenis, i thought you had gone away with your leftist drivel, or does pat let you in for the sake of getting some of us riled.
May 24th, 2007 at 10:53 pmAbout the saudis, OK i think that you have a point, but slamming them would cost dearly. The way the admin is handling them is OK, the saudis can see that if they get way out of line the curtains will come down, and at least they recognise that AQ is just as big a threat to them as anyone, they do something about it, not in a nice way either.
The saudis also realise that if Israel goes down so does most of the production of oil in the ME so they sponser peace talks, albeit to pacify the other sunnis, but at least they are trying. Most of the other ME arabs are not.
Second: if you need 20/hr as a liveable wage then you are far too extravagant.There are millions of Americans living on much less, and they make do, If the min wage was 20/hr then there would be a catastophic loss of jobs and not only for “the work Americans wont do” crowd either, but for millions of others.
And dont forget, millions are trying to get into your country, usually illegally and they are able to liver on the slave wages illegals are paid, and able to repatriate money back home as well.
Third: Amnest International is a sick joke.They are marxists who only attempt to show up developed world countries where they know they wont be hunted down, and give the big nothing about third world countries and dictatorships where human rights are something to be looked up in a dictionary. Get a life and go back to the kos.
AI is a liberal group , end of story. when they show a bias they are no longer non partisan and they will have people that ignore abuses among certain groups because it doesnt fit their ideological bent.
Denis, wake up! Iraqis ARE arabs(except the kurds)what you mean is they are saudis. 15 were saudis and i believe one from yemen and 3 others. the point is they had ties for sure with alqaida who’s leader was hiding in afghanistan. they are not a country , they are a muslim movement with associated groups all over the world. Bush said “we will make no distinction between terrorists and those who harbor them”, therefore if they are hiding in saudi and we find out and the saudis dont Turn them over , then we have reason to attack, thats why pakistan was spared. al qaida is in iraq, were they there before, yes they moved into there after we invaded afghanistan , because saddam sympathized with them since the wahabism is more aligned with sunni islam of which saddam was a member.
Denis you show how little you know about the arab world and islam.
The chinese kill budhists in nepal, a soverign country? when did this happen and why hasent the msm reported it? those imperialists! Nepal is not part of China.
Speaking of buddhists, has AI spoken up about the brutal military regime in thailand that is sponsoring muslim terrorists in the south to wreak havoc on more peaceful buddhists. The military regime is led by a muslim. muslim make u a small minority of thailand. This
apartheied isnt it? It was the rural people, where these kilings are taking place, that supported the over thrown prime minister thaksin sinawatra. it was the liberal elitists in banbkok who cheered for this new dictator. Has AI reported these abuses, NO ! But they did report about thaksin coming down on these murderous muslim groups.
AI has no pull with most straight thinking people. they are maoist sympathizers who dont give a tinkers damn about human rights!
May 24th, 2007 at 11:18 pmHaving lived in Saudi Arabia for 4 years (1996-2000), I am more than a tad familiar with Islam.
You always hear about the 72 black-eyed virgins who are touched by neither men nor demons. How many of you know that you also get 28 young boys?
28 young boys? WTF?!
Okay, so I develop a spontaneous brain tumor and convert to Islam. I live a pious life, slaughtering Jews wherever I find them and enslaving Christians. I go to Muzzie Paradise. I get my 72 virgins and 28 young boys.
I’m a realist. I’m no Brad Pitt, and I’m pushing 50 now. But I try to take care of myself. Realistically, I’m guessing that in less than six weeks, I’m fresh out of virgins.
But wait! I’ve got 28 young boys! I can coach a soccer team in Paradise with my 72 non-virgins leading a cheerleading squad.
For all eternity. Forever and ever.
Must have been a really bad brain tumor!
May 26th, 2007 at 10:27 amI often play devil’s advocate, because people often get too wrapped up in their own arguments to present a rational case for or against something (here, that something is Islam). Some of you seem ot be against the religion of Islam on the grounds that it brainwashes, people carry out acts of violence in it’s name, etc. You could just as easily substitute out ‘Islam’ and the ‘Koran’ and replace with ‘Christianity’ and ‘The Bible’. Christianity has been used over the past 2000 years as a tool to pacify and rule large groups of people(the pope, kings and vassals), to kill and conquer others (crusades, missions/colonization). Any religion in the hands of extremists can be carried out in such a way, not just Islam, and history highlights this.
May 29th, 2007 at 12:42 pmEric,
lets add your name to the list of moral relativist dip shits like lisa flick. Why dont you actually study the quran , sunnah and islamic shariah law, then study the history of islam from muhammad to now and see if you can come to the same conclusion?
Ask yourself what were the stated reasons by muhammed and the subsequent caliphs for the conquering of asia, north africa and parts of europe for the first 400 years of islam?
Then ask yourself what were the stated goals of jesus and the apostles and their successors for the first 1000 years leading up to the first crusade? In fact what was the reasoning for calling the first crusade as stated by the pope?
Then you can ask if the quran is written in order of revelation or length? After this , you might understand why such a term as Nashk(abrogation) is important to Islam. you will see that surah 9 is the last “revelation ” of muhammed and contained within that surah is the vilest of commandemnets for followers of the “one true religion” to follow. It says “when you meet the unbelievers in battle strike off their necks…” (9:5) Kill the unbelievers where ever you find them.. etc.
After really understanding Islam you will find a great distinction between it and christianity. That while christians have had a history of NOT following the exhortations of jesus “to Love our enemies and do good to those who harm us” the muslims have had a history of following exactly what muhammed has told them. Like killing jews(bukhari, quran), taxing jews and christians and humiliating them, converting or killing other unbelievers. raping women, enslaving men and women and children(concubines)pedophilia(aisha the 6 year old child bride of muhammed) (bukari). the list goes on and on as illustrated by muslim historiansd and muhammed himself through the hadith and the quran respectively.
You will see that the pope called the first crusade because of a request by the church of constantinople to free them from the oppression of the muslims who had conquered their lands and enslaved their people placing heavy burdens on them and not allowing them to teach their own children their religion. The pope exhorted crusaders to take back the holy land and other lands stolen by the muslims over 400 years of raping robbing and pillaging. He said nothing of making conversions. Unfortunately, in their zeal some crusaders killed jews and committed abuses along the way but the fight was not unprovoked as muslims pretend. we remained patient for too long.
you relativism reveals your own ignorance of history and the religion of islam. i say remedy the deficiences before you decide to pretend you have knowledge.
