Only a community organizing jackass could come up with the term violent extremist to cover for radical islam. The cartoonists in Paris weren't slaughtered in the name of violent extremist, they were slaughtered in the name of islam. We have a bunch of asshole cowards running our country.

Our enemy (by its own declarations, bombings, Koran, and teachings) is ISLAM. Not ‘radical Islam’

To WH Spokesman Josh Earnest: Read their da&med Koran, or ask your boss — he can recite it from memory!

(ps: your name is a joke, right? Sort of like Mary Chastity working at a brothel?)

When will there be an open & honest discussion of exactly what is taught as acceptable muslim behavior in the koran?

Libs want to point out the peaceful passages but ignore the violent & intolerance passages.

Radical Islam is a cop out.

Like calling the SS Radical NAZIs.

Every poll that asks Muslims if they support terrorist acts against non-Muslims gets the same answer; the vast majority do.

The only reason “profiling” is being banned as a tool in crime fighting, is because the profile that always emerges as the most likely culprit of violent crime, is a black or brown or Islamic male.

And in our current death spiral PC culture...it is not nice to judge black and brown third world economically dis-advantaged people by the same standard that you would judge...oh let's say, Old White Guys.

Old White Guys, and white people in general, are judged by a standard that assumes that you are rich and privileged and that you got that way by unfairly taking stuff from the economically dis-advataged peoples of color.

White House has declined to use the terminology
It willn’t. Shan’t by decree no doubt.

So, Earnest concluded, the terrorists are not radical Islamists.

1. They are terrorists.

2. They themselves say this is a Muslim Jihad.

Therefor they are Radical Islamist Terrorists and Josh Earnest is a paid liar.

“it doesn’t seem to accurately describe what had happened.”

At what point in time does it? How many more people have to be killed by Islamic Jihadists before you can be comfortable with calling them Islamic terrorists?

It was the small hours of the morning and Josh Earnest was tossing and turning in bed. Graduation from Rice University was months ago and he had no job and a lot of SallieMae loans. Debt collectors were calling `early and often’. His old car was about to be re-possessed. His girl had left him.

Suddenly ..... Satan appeared at the foot of his bed! (Rumbling, stinking sulfur & brimstone smell)

“What do you want?” Josh squeals.

“YOU, Josh. I want you. I’m ready to give you fame, fortune and travel. And more.” said Beelzebub. “But you will have to lie like a bear rug. By that, I mean the truth and you must be complete strangers.”

Josh replied, “Hey, I majored in political science! And I’m a Democrat. I worked for president Obama’s campaign. No prob, Bob!”

“Cool.” said Satan.

“Wait a cotton-pickin’ second,” asked Josh. “What are you going to want from me in return?”

“That’s easy. I’ll want your immortal soul. I plan to roast you on a spit over hot flames forever.” replied the Prince of Darkness

Josh chewed this over, and said, “OK, lemme see if I understand. In exchange for my soul you offer big bucks, benefits and health care?”

“That’s right, and gold-plated health insurance, like all my other minions. None of that Affordable Care bronze crap.” replied the Devil

Josh “And sharp clothes, a nice car, hot chicks?”

Satan: “Yep. For as long as you live.”

Josh: “Mmmmm, golly. Gee, I dunno. There’s gotta be a catch ....”.
