They act like terrorists, they regularly kill civilians like terrorists, but the White House does not consider the Afghan Taliban to be a terrorist group.
“They do carry out tactics that are akin to terrorism. They do pursue terror attacks in an effort to try to advance their agenda,” White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest explained today, but “they have a different classification.”

No, they are “enemy combatants”. Or “Specially Designated Global Terrorists (SDGT)” , not “Foreign Terrorist Organization (FTO)”.

I’d put them on the NK (need killing) list.
Calling the Taliban terrorists is as absurd as calling Obama a terrorist.
It’s harder to let the remaining Gitmo folks go if they are called terrorists than if they are called freedom fighters. We’ve got to hurry up and empty out Gitmo so we can give it back to Fidel and Raul along with the billions in reparations.
The question is, why aren't we doing anything about it?
A lot of alphabet agencies only care about doing their jobs in defense of an enemy agent.
LOL!
Everyone in the WH is a terrorist.
Nuance! We’re smarter than you and we understand these things!
Despicable.
The whole Congress is evidently in the tank for this enemy islamist bastage.
I don't care about the alphabet agencies - they are part of the problem. When I say we, I mean you and I and those who believe as we do - the freedom loving, gun owning, Conservative militia - we like to talk a big game about how the 2nd Amendment has nothing to do with hunting, but when it comes to the real reason the 2A was put into place, we sit back and pi$$ and moan about it, and then do nothing. Why?
“I don’t care about the alphabet agencies - they are part of the problem.”
Exactly.
Oh, and they troll us looking for trouble and names to put on a list so they can come after people who dislike the “new direction” the government is going in.
Matter of fact, here’s one such person trolling FR for names during the Bundy ranch stand off with the schutzstaffel:

They said it was NOT as bad as I was making it out to be.
Here's my latest statement regarding the next chapter following "out of control."
I wonder how long it's going to take for everyone to finally figure out that we have a Muslim President who is running interference for his brothers.
Keep in mind his number one adviser is Valerie Jarret, also a Muslim, who's parents still reside in Iran.
Naa.. couldn't be.. America is not that stupid. /s
To answer your question simply.. that requires LEADERSHIP and I see NONE currently on the political stage.
So long as we can wake up in the house we pay the mortgage on, get in our new/semi-new car, drive to work and put in 8 hours, pick up our checks, stop for a 6 pack on the way home to sit in front of our big screen TV's and watch the game, we'll NEVER do anything about it. Far too much sacrifice involved, which leads me to my next statement: SHAME ON US! We have pi$$ed all over the legacy the Founders left us, and should be ashamed to call ourselves American.
See my post #34 above. There will never be leadership in this arena. It requires far too much sacrifice.
At the moment, it is better to operate in the shadows.
No use getting Jose Guerena’d.
Up is down...round is square...left is right...wrong is right...and so forth. Truly we are in Bizarro World. Brought to us by the usual suspects: LIBs/DIMs/RINOs. Criminal all.
Yup!
not too sure the teli ban has done anything to hurt me or my family.
I can guarantee ya that obammy inc. sure as hell has.
Dunno that I can agree it's better at this point, but more importantly, I don't think that matters since the truth is, we're NOT even operating in the shadows. We're standing around with our thumbs in our noses, pi$$ing and moaning about it all, which entirely unwilling to do a damn thing about it. The Code Pink idiots that went to DC to arrest whatshisnuts? Sure, they are most certainly a bunch of flaming idiots, but at least they had the balls to do what we only talk about.
