Barnicle: We Can't Call It Radical Islam 'Because We're The Crusaders'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 02/17/2015 4:31:03 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Joe Scarborough opened today's Morning Joe with a protracted and impassioned plea for America—and in particular President Obama—to call out radical Islam by name.

Mika Brzezinski was dubious, citing unspecified "difficult times" in the past when presidents used the wrong language. But taking Mika's misgivings a giant step further, Mike Barnicle flatly declared that we can't call radical Islam by name because "we're the Crusaders."

Only by towing the Leftist party line can a serial plagiarist continue to earn a substantial living in "journalism."

Barnacle is an old school liberal. In the past, comments by him and other members of the MSM went unchallenged and accepted as gospel.

All the MSM is like Brian Williams. The only problem for Williams is that now there is an alternative media to highlight their lies and treasonous comments.

I think it’s more “Br’er Rabbit fights the Tar-Baby” and I blame Jimmy Carter more then Richard Coeur de Lion.

“Blithering idiot” is being kind. I don’t know how people can shame themselves by spewing this nonsense.

Well, it is because they have no shame. If it weren’t for double standards, the left would have no standards at all...

The U.S. didn’t exist for another 500 years after the last Crusade. How could we possibly be the crusaders?

It’s too bad that history isn’t taught anymore or more people would know that the crusades were a defensive action against muslim conquest.

Islam has always been a religion of conquest and slavery. It still is.

Submit, die or convert.

Or fight.

Boston is typical hypocritical Liberal:
“Desegregation for you but not for me.” See Boston School Busing Controversy.
2013 Boston City is 45.2% non-Hispanic White
2013-14 Boston Public School is 13% White, 40% Hispanic, 35% Black (not counting Public Charter schools)

Well Mike you maroon we can not call it “radical” Islam because it is not. It is simply Islam. A death cult with one purpose. To rule the planet and destroy freedom and liberty.
