#2 One of the natural laws: whatever Obama says, the opposite is probably true.

#6 the US is not, and never will be at war with Islam.

You had better re-think that statement Obama. You been had. We will fix that in 2012.

Islamist spokesman Muslim Anjem Choudary [On muslim apologist Christina Amananpour in October] openly admits that he and other Muslims believe that one day an Islamic flag will fly over the White House. Here is more of what Choudary said:

We do believe, as Muslims, the East and the West will one day be governed by the Sharia. Indeed, we believe that one day, the flag of Islam will fly over the White House. Indeed, theres even an oration of the Prophet where he said, The day of judgment will not come until a group of my oma [interrupted] Conquer the White House.

#7 As long as muslims believe they are at war with us, we are at war no matter what BO says.

#10 This statement is stupid on so many levels.

First, Obama's giving Carte Blanche to 'Islam.'
He's telling the world that whatever 'Islam' does to the US or an ally of the US, 'Islam' will never have to face the US as an adversary in a war.
Goodbye 'deterrence'!
Goodbye 'umbrella' for non-nuclear allies!

Second, this commitment is obviously one that he cannot force the US to honor. He won't be President for all eternity. A future US government, be it in 4 years or 400 years, might very well decide to declare war on 'Islam.'

So Obama's statement is both ill-advised and objectively nonsensical. That's quite and achievement!

That's our President, OW. ;-p

"He won't be President for all eternity."

Not for lack of his trying. :-(

#12 Wee President Obama is right- we do have much more work to do.

We haven't come close to killing the large numbers of Talib and fundamentalists in Pakistan that it will take to destroy their organization and capabilities, we haven't taken out the Mohammadean slave traders in Africa, we haven't bombed out of existence the vipers nest that is Iran theocracy...

We have a lot more killing to do since that is all the fundamentalists know, the president is right (even though not in he way that he thinks)
