WH: It's not just Trump getting it wrong on Muslims

White House spokesman Josh Earnest said Tuesday that Donald Trump isn't the only Republican who is trying to single out Muslims in the effort to reduce terrorist attacks against the United States.

Earnest called out former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie for making statements that the president also opposes.

"It was Gov. Bush who initially advocated for a religious test on individuals who were entering the country," Earnest told reporters Tuesday during his daily press briefing. "It was Sen. Cruz who made the reference to enhanced surveillance of Muslim communities. It is Chris Christie who expressed concerns about admitting Syrian refugees to the United States.

"Unfortunately, it's not about one politician in the Republican Party who is reacting out of fear and using language that the president is concerned could undermine our homeland security," Earnest added.

Earlier Tuesday after a meeting with his national security team, Obama said he's not afraid to call terrorists "radical Islamists," but said the term wouldn't change anything and instead could undermine key coalitions with Muslim countries that are part of the fight against the Islamic State.

"What exactly would using this label accomplish? What exactly would it change?" he said. "Is there a military strategy that is served by this? The answer is, none of the above. Calling a threat by a different name does not make it go away.

"This is a political distraction," Obama said. "It's a political talking point, it's not a strategy."

Obama never mentioned Trump's name, but reporters and commentators said it was obvious that he was referring to him after Trump said after the Orlando attacks that the president should resign if he could not say radical Islamic terrorism was responsible.

The president's frustration with Trump and other GOP critics was on full display Tuesday. Earnest said Obama is "quite passionate" about the issue because, as commander in chief, he twice took an oath to protect the American people and he believes the Republican Party is "reacting out of fear" and using language that plays into Islamic State propaganda about waging jihad against the west.

Josh Earnest, Paid Liar. His folks probably tell their friends he is off fighting for Al Queda.

[I want the USA back]

bammy and this jerk are on the side of the jihadis.

[Jane Long]

When is the Occupier of the White Hut going to condemn jihadis....more than he’s condemning Trump?

Under 0bie & The Dims, putting America/safety of Americans first is racist.

I’m 73. In my entire life I have never seen a Republican candidate, including Renaldus Magnus, who could so take on DemonCraps and get into their heads as Mr. Trump, who just keeps on getting better and better.

As FReeper MINUTEGAL posted It appears that the muzzies are now prepared with rapid-response offense/defense propaganda teams immediately after a mass shooting....and are actually granted a sounding-board of their own right along with the FBI, L/E and state and local officials in the ensuing press conferences.

And we can thank that half-wit in the WH for that....and this.

==========================================

The radical left attacks Trump for being a racist because he plans on controlling Muslim immigration into this country. According to the cockamamie thinking of the left, any President who does his constitutional duty by protecting the nation from Muslim butchers is a racist.

AND GET THIS: Obama stooge, DHS Secy 'Jeh' Johnson fatuously stating that Muslim immigrants have been successfully assimilated into American society. So, Jeh...how'd they do that?

-Back in October 2011 one of the most astute lawmen in Washington, Cong Louis Gohmert (Repub-TX), a former judge, questioned then-DHS Secy Janet Napolitano about Mohamed Elibiary, a member of the Department of Homeland Security Council (DHS) with a high level security clearance.

Elibiary allegedly accessed, illegally, from his home computer, a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database.....(Elibiary was ousted from the Homeland Security Advisory Council for shady activities---and settled in Texas).

Napolitano managed to unglue her lips from Obama's behind---and told Cong Gohmert she knew nothing about it, and that she would "personally" do the investigation. (waiting for hysterical laughter to die down)

=========================================================

Obama gave 5 MILLION federal hires Obama top security clearance.

======================================================

The following have top US security clearance

Arif Alikhan, assistant secretary of Homeland Security for policy development;

Mohammed Elibiary, a member of the Homeland Security
Advisory Council (ousted for using his home computer
to tap into a Texas State and Local Intelligence Community database;

Rashad Hussain, the U.S. special envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference;

Salam al-Marayati, co-founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC);

Imam Mohamed Magid, president of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA);

Eboo Patel, a member of President Obama's Advisory Council on Faith-Based Neighborhood Partnerships.

==================================================

Estimates range from several thousand to approximately eight million Islamic fighters inside the United States as we type. The exact number is unknown. Several thousand could create havoc if a coordinated attack was to occur. keep in mind, on 9/11, just 19 Islamic fighters and hijackers killed almost three thousand people. One has to believe the worst case scenario----that nearly eight million are already here....and being welcomed by Obama.

========================================================

Cong Michelle Bachman says the FBI told her Americans who joined ISIS are allowed back in the US.
