Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson was reduced to stammering tautologies when George Stephanopoulos asked him why the Administration wont call the Islamic State Islamic: Now I have to say, when I travel around the country and meet with Muslim leaders in this country in these engagements that I have, they all tend to say pretty much the same thing, which is that ISIL has hijacked my religion. And so, in my view, if we start referring to ISIL as occupying any form of the Islamic theology, were pretty much dignifying them as occupying some form of, of that faith, and I know that Muslim leaders in this country, uh, push back hard on that, and it seems to me, its, its going to a, a, a place where ISIL would very much like us to go, in that were dignifying them as occupying some form of Islam. They, they dont. Islam is about peace and brotherhood. There are 1.6 billion Muslims in this world, and the true Islamic faith has nothing to do with what ISIL represents. And so, to, to start labeling them as Islam or as Islamic State in any respect, I think gives them far more dignity than they deserve. And so do a lot of Muslims believe that, too, by the way.

He’s an expert on moslems.
Works for one.
This Administration is downright dangerous.
Jeh Johnson Total Failure At The Job !!!!
What part of the Koran says Muslims can’t kill people? Oh wait, the Korans says Muslims are supposed to kill people.
There’s about 1 1/2 billion Moslems keeping their mouths shut tight about this “hijacking” of their “religion.” Wonder why?
DHS cares more about ISIS than America.
Today, this Administration refuses to dignify .... America,
and in its stead attacks the Constitution, and
smears the American people who support it, at every turn.
Previously, DHS has left the borders OPEN and allowed
criminals and the incurably infected to enter,
and even INVITING THEM IN SECRETLY and arming them,
and even permitting murderous Islamic terrorists to enter
the USA, even without a single passport !!!!
(e.g. the Boston Atrocity Islamic terrorists
who had already beheaded three in Waltham MA
on the anniversary of 911, and despite more than
three warnings BEFORE the atrocity.)
But its okay for us to revisit ancient history of the Crusades and what was done in the name of Christ.
Based on this reasoning, since Christianity does not call for wars except under certain circumstances, and since Christianity does not call for inquisitions and witch trials, then no such events in history can be said to have been done in the name of Christianity. Using Obama’s own criteria, he is full of it on this issue.
I suggest that Obama and Jeh Johnson and other liberals get off their high horse.
How inconvenient for ISIS to use the word Islam in their name. Their marketing director should have learned from our administration to title things in a PC way in order to fool the Grubers. Something like International State for Goodness and Diversity. ISGAD.... or something.
I can’t believe I went to high school with this weanie. He was actually briliant back then.

Johnson was at the forefront of the push to end the militarys Dont Ask, Dont Tell policy. He ran a taskforce and co-authored a report that demonstrated the effect of allowing gay men and women to openly serve would cause little disruption, clearing the way for the end of the law.
There is nothing dignified about isLAM. who do these punk commies in Obamas administration think they are fooling? They’re fooling fewer and fewer people every day.
Call a spade a spade and a shovel a shovel.
Obama is treating the word Islam like Lord Voldemort (He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named).
Wow you went to high school with Jeh Johnson? Did he always spell Jay as Jeh? From what I heard Jeh spelled that way is an African nickname of some sort.
The Obama administration insists that Islamic terrorists are not real Muslims, yet it gave Osama bin Laden a full Muslim funeral and it runs Gitmo like a madrass.
This A-hole and those exactly like him are going to create the conditions that lead to a very dramatic attack on our soil with the Islamic State’s “we are Islamic” calling card in their wake. It is imperative that the ISIS launch very hard hitting attacks in the US to reverse the PR campaign by the Obama experts. Also, according to ISIS, a mere attack qualifies as occupying - therefore if they control the “serenity” space they control the land and the people.
The same old bs is still at Dept of Homeland Security even after lesbo Janet left.
