Lieberman: Omitting 'Islamic' Terrorism From Security Document Dishonest, 'Offensive'
FoxNews.com ^ | 4/11/2010

Posted on 04/11/2010 8:49:40 AM PDT by SonOfDarkSkies

Sen. Joe Lieberman slammed the Obama administration Sunday for stripping terms like "Islamic extremism" from a key national security document, calling the move dishonest, wrong-headed and disrespectful to the majority of Muslims who are not terrorists.

...

Lieberman, in his letter, noted that prior Department of Homeland Security and Pentagon documents also did not refer to "Islamist extremism." He expressed dismay that the administration's review of the Fort Hood shooting, in which alleged shooter Maj. Nidal Hasan was said to have had contact with a radical cleric beforehand, omitted the term.

"Unless we're honest about that, we're not going to be able to defeat this enemy," Lieberman told "Fox News Sunday." "It's absolutely Orwellian and counterproductive to the fight that we're fighting."

What Leiberman is saying is very simple ~ that the Obama regime is Moslem in its substance, intent and performance.

Translating that into "if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and looks like a duck" it's a duck ~ in this case, a Moslem duck ~

Lieberman - It's a group of Islamist extremists who have taken the Muslim religion and made it into a political ideology...

Boolshiite, islam has always been a political ideology.

Which is actually scary in and of itself.

I see him and the Kongressional dems (on their way out) work to pass the most vile legislation possible before the January swearing in. And once the pubbies try to repeal.... 0 will bleed the veto pen dry.

The added touch would be if they could have the worst of it come on line during the 2012 elections.... in order to frame the pubbies.

I put nothing past these ###holes.

I pretty sick of Lieberman, too. For all his “independent” talk, he still sides with the donks more often than not.

..................

calling the move dishonest, wrong-headed and disrespectful to the majority of Muslims who are not terrorists , but on target if the objective is avoiding the marginalization of Muslims who are supportive or at least tolerant of Islamic terror, a majority, something Obama understands.

A friend of Obama exercising his 1st amendment rights, stoning Jews.

Most Americans don't consider stoning Jews free speech, as does Obama's alma matter, Columbia.

What did the country expect when they elected a guy with Arabic first and middle names, especially with Hussien as his middle name? Even Obama is a Muslim name. The Luo are a traqditionally Muslim people, and Obama Sr. was a Luo.

Additionallly he spent much of his elemtary age in Indonesia, with a Muslim Indonesian stepfather.

Of course he has Muslim sympathies.

“”Unless we're honest about that, we're not going to be able to defeat this enemy,” Lieberman told “Fox News Sunday.” “It's absolutely Orwellian and counterproductive to the fight that we're fighting.”

Here's a man who is not only “honest” about it - but knows how it must be fought.

We need this man in DC - and in the pipeline. Here, he answers a question from a Marine - after everyone else at the table hems and haws or jokes about it:

Islam is built on the idea that you can combine religion, government, culture and social norms into one big happy package of totalitarianism.
