It’s not shocking; it’s fact.

>>The two Muslim D.C. Snipers beat them to it by several years, but we’re not supposed to refer to them as Islamic terrorists.<<

Would Mohammedan meatheads do? Murdering followers of a goat-humping pedophile?

They’re not willing, yet. Obama has kept up much of the Bush war strategy on the Q.T. and he’s proven to be so two-faced that even his Moose buddies can’t trust him. (I guess that’s a silver lining to having a liar as Commander in Chief.)

Eric Holder responds:

"Oh Yeah? Well, we have thousands of attorneys that can target the CIA."

Oh its just another example of islamist psychological warfare.

If he had “thousands of suicide bombers” available to hit key targets, why is he bothering to brag about it? Why doesn’t he just use them?

Don’t let them get to you. They’re dangerous, but they aren’t all-powerful either.

I agree with you, they have been kept on the run for eight years and governments that might assist them have had the fear of George W. Bush instilled in them.

Let’s face it that last administration sent the fear of God into some world leaders when they just started kicking ass and taking names.

Do people remember Colonel Muammar Qaddafi calling up and letting George W. know that he was playing nice now and of course there are dead guys like the leader of Iraq and unknown numbers of guys that thought they were the next man up to lead the Taliban or whatever.

Hah...and the odds are that 99% of them are so obvious that even we could stop them. Hopefully, that other 1% would by stopped by our ultra-vigilant border patrol...

In all seriousness... most would be caught easily - it’s those last few that could cause a problem.

“It IS a bad thing...and that’s a fact.”

Agreed! IF it’s a fact, of course. One can never be sure with these terrorist blowhards.

One thing is damn sure tho’ Barak Obama, and his racist AG Eric Holder, with their witch hunt against the CIA have just put up a “Hit me again” sign on the US.

Just let the clowns try something against the USA. Obama will slap a court order on them so fast, they won’t know what hit ‘em.

It’s a good thing we secure the Mexican border so well. Those bombers will never get in that way!

Fact is, members of the public are more likely to stop terrorists today than any government agency or employee! Too bad the Dims in D.C. have disarmed the public. Maybe they can throw their cell phones at the Jihadis.

>we have all sorts of fun stuff like the neutron bomb...

Actually, we don't.


Three types of ERW were built by the United States.
The W66 warhead, for the anti-ICBM Sprint missile system, was produced and deployed in the mid 1970s and retired soon thereafter, along with the missile system.
The W70 Mod 3 warhead was developed for the short-range, tactical Lance missile, and the W79 Mod 0 was developed for artillery shells.
The latter two types were retired by President George H. W. Bush in 1992, following the end of the Cold War.
The last W70 Mod 3 warhead was dismantled in 1996, and the last W79 Mod 0 was dismantled by 2003, when the dismantling of all W79 variants was completed.


But don't worry, Russia, China, and even Israel have them aplenty.

it is probable that China has a stockpile of neutron bombs, Russia has neutron bombs and Israel has hundreds of neutron weapons.

My bad, I do not follow that area.
I gather we could make a lot of better stuff, if we absolutely had to.
The root cause, of course, is the Muslin mind set.
If a Muslim President (their point of view) and countless apologies do not turn that mindset, we need to evaluate how to protect our life and liberty
