Empty Oval Office

Remember how gruff and disrespectful the Clint Eastwood bit was at the RNC? I don’t either. It was a reflection of reality. A reality of an empty suit in The White House was parodied as the empty chair. And it wasn’t even a stretch.

Do you remember a national crisis where Americans were attacked and killed, like our Libyan Embassy people on Sept 11, when the American people were not addressed personally by the President on TV from the Oval Office within minutes if not hours of the event? I don’t.

Empty Desk!
Together again. The empty chair and desk.

It’s been thirteen days since the terrorist attack on our people and the president is still MIA. But he did characterize the 9/11 attacks as a foreign policy ‘bump in the road.’

Candidate Obama is the one who promised that he could change the hearts and minds of Islamic terrorists with his ‘new direction’ in foreign policy. The reality is that this direction is nothing new, where Barack Obama is concerned.

His ‘new direction’ alienates allies and emboldens our enemies. President Obama is merely doing in foreign policy what he is accustomed to do in law policies. This is his national security version of voting ‘present.’

Obama ‘Widened The (Islamic) Gap’

The recent killing of our Ambassador called a lot in to question. Lack of security at the Embassy and at the ‘safe house’ being only one. What is it about these murdering Muslims? Why do they continue to hate us now? President Obama told us he’s got this under control. Elect him and they will like us. Hope & Change. All that.

Jean Aziz, columnist for the Lebanese daily Al-Akhbar, believes it’s all our fault. That “the repeated mistakes of U.S. policy in the Middle East and vis-à-vis the Islamic world could lead to another 9/11.”

Jihad Advancing In West Africa

Terrorist leader Oumar Ould Hamaha is running his “Movement for Unity and Jihad” in West Africa. “Unity” in the minds of these Islamist radical, bigoted, if not racist Muslims, means getting rid of non-believers.

I told my elements that we need to get rid of these people because they are refusing to respect us.

The extremists have since made “huge gains,” taking the entire northern half of Mali, including Timbuktu, and causing some 440,000 people to flee, according to the useless United Nations.

Respect them, convert to their version of Islam, or die. That’s what this whole ‘movement’ is about. And their soul brothers in this ‘movement’ is a world-wide group called the Muslim Brotherhood. The group that the Obama administration said was a harmless, “largely secular” group when they helped them take over Egypt.

The term “racist” has really been abused in today’s political vernacular. If you’re a racist, you believe that races other than yours are inferior by genetics. If you’re a bigot, you just don’t like them because of who they are, or the color of their skin. Not that one is genetically superior to others.

At the risk of bastardizing the word ‘racist,’ there is a similarity to be drawn between this whole Islamic Jihad movement and racism. These Islamists, Muslims, actually believe that anyone of any color that does not accept their religion, and embrace their religion instead of their own, just need to be gotten rid of. If there was such a thing as a “religious racist,” that’s exactly what they would be.

They simply do not accept the existence of what they call ‘non-believers.’ For these terrorists, non-believers are a to-do list. There’s no ‘live and let live’ in their perverted religion. It’s you comply. You submit. Or you die.

Carter’s Second Term Is Here

That President Obama’s economic philosophy has created a failing economy as bad as the Carter years, the comparison doesn’t stop there.

In foreign relations, it was President Carter who gave Iran over to the radical Islamists. See how well that turned out? The Arab Spring in Egypt, that President Obama participated in and took credit for, has now delivered Egypt over to radical Islamists known as the Muslim Brotherhood.

So it is we have a second Carter term on the international stage. What’s next?

Another Diplomatic Disaster For The Unites States

Leave the upcoming military confrontation with Iran aside for a moment. And put Russia and China on the back burner as countries hostile to humanity for condoning Syria’s murdering of their own citizens. Which at the same time highlights the uselessness of the United Nations and its Security Council.

Set that aside for now so you can concentrate on how Muslim Brotherhood-controlled Egypt is sending 19 American NGO (non governmental organization) workers to trial for ‘crimes’ like promoting democracy and human rights and for receiving funds to support them and their mission.

The Muslim Brotherhood used the NGO’s to help overthrow former President Hosni Mubarak. The ‘democracy’ that got rid of Mubarak is no longer needed. Now, they are holding 43 of them prisoner and moving to the oppressive Sharia law.

One of the Americans held captive is Sam LaHood, the son of Secretary of  Transportation Ray LaHood. Sam LaHood is the head of the Egypt office of the Washington-based International Republican Institute.

I don’t attribute any of that as, like Joe Biden had warned, that President Obama will be tested on the international stage. This is a result of a combination of his inexperience, naivety, and his pre-occupation with transforming the United States into some form of government-controlled society where the federal government makes all decisions for you.

Three years ago, then Sen. Joe Biden (D-DE) said . . .

Mark my words. It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy.

And they have not stopped.

Makes one wonder if Biden made that statement because he knew what would follow when the top of the ticket is clueless on any subject besides ‘social justice.’

Obama’s Role In Egypt’s Turmoil

The Arab Spring in Egypt is apparently going as planned. Not by those who actually wanted freedom or some form of democracy, but by those who want to extend Sharia law. The people wanting freedom, including Coptic Christians, are being killed and beaten unmercifully.

Egypt’s military is replete with the radical Muslim Brotherhood who shares responsibility with President Obama for the Arab Winter. This video shows you the kind of freedom that President Obama is “responsible” for.

Obama sowed the seeds, stoked the fire, then disappeared, allowing the Muslim Brotherhood to take over. It’s like community organizing at the country level.

Remember: Credit Obama for Seeds of the Egyptian Revolution

While three days of mourning, praying and fasting for the victims for the Egyptian Coptic Christians begins tomorrow, look back eight months ago and see that I wasn’t the only one who thought Obama was a participant in the Egyptian uprising.

Obama sowed the seeds, stoked the fire, then disappeared; allowing the Muslim Brotherhood to take over. It’s like community organizing at the country level.

He has replaced one dictator with another. Only this one is much more violent. This ‘dictator’ burns down Christian churches. Bibles and all. Now they are targeting and killing Christians with much less abandon.

Does this get him a feather for his diplomatic hat?

Radical Muslims, Egypt’s Military, Kill 26 Christians

It will be revealing to see how, or whether, President Obama deals with the church bombings, rioting, and the killing of 26 Coptic Christians in Egypt over the weekend.

Will he . . .

  1. ask Americans and the rest of the less-free world to join Egypt’s Coptic church in three days of mourning?
  2. publicly and clearly condemn not only the actions of the radical Muslims and Egypt’s military for the role they played, but also condemn the Muslim’s attitude of superiority and religious intolerance that started it all?
  3. humbly accept responsibility for his role in feuling the uprising and apologize? He has made apologies when none was called for. This time, it is called for.
  4. go to a re-election campaign fundraiser?

Associated Press reports . . .

Egypt’s Coptic church blasted authorities Monday for allowing repeated attacks on Christians with impunity as the death toll from a night of rioting rose to 26, most of them Christians who were trying to stage a peaceful protest in Cairo over an attack on a church.

The spiritual leader of the Coptic Christian minority, Pope Shenouda III, declared three days of mourning, praying and fasting for the victims starting on Tuesday and also presided over funerals for some of the Christians killed. Sunday’s sectarian violence was the worst in Egypt since the uprising that ousted Hosni Mubarak in February.

For the role he claims to have played in the Arab Spring, President Barack Hussein Obama (Mmm, Mmm, mmmm), the one who was going to unify the world,  now has Christians’ blood on his hands.

Muslim Mobs Burn Churches

Something strange happened to that whole democracy movement in Egypt.

Muslim mobs set two Cairo churches on fire overnight during sectarian clashes that left 12 dead and more than 200 injured. The deepening religious violence in military-ruled Egypt exacerbated an already chaotic and lawless transition to democracy.

Things sure are better now that Mubarak is out. And we can credit President Obama for that. What?

These church burnings were triggered by rumors of an interfaith couple. She’s Muslim, he’s not Muslim. He’s Christian.

No Women’s Day In Egypt

I’ll go out on a limb and suggest that the second-class status of women extends beyond Egypt, to wherever fundamentalist Muslim people live. The United States being the possible exception.

Women in Egypt, celebrating International Women’s Day, were met with angry mobs of men telling them to go back home where they belong.

The N.O.W. gang has a new task ahead of them. Should they choose to accept it.
