"Willard, you ignorant slut!"

Apparently, unlike most everything else, Mitt Romney has not flip-flopped on his position on jihad and Islam. Back in July 2009, I wrote in a post entitled, "Why Romney Won't be President" that Romney would not be president because he said something so fundamentally and unabashedly wrong about America's greatest mortal threat that he was unfit to be President: "Jihadism Is not part of Islam." Yes, he said that. That is frightening coming from a Presidential candidate. Instead of spending the ensuing years studying jihad, Romney appears hardwired for delusion in his latest remarks.
The fact that Romney knows peaceful Muslims is purely anecdotal. I believe that most Muslims are secular and have no desire to strap one on. But that does not mean that Islam is not inherently violent. The ideology is the most violent and radical on the face of the earth. What history books is Romney reading......Dr. Seuss? How did Romney miss over 270 million victims in over a millennium of jihadi wars, land appropriations, cultural annihilations and enslavements? How did Romney miss the close to 18,000 Islamic attacks since 911? How did Romney miss the revolutions in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, etc.? How did Romney miss the jihad on the Jews and Christians and Hindus and Sikhs?
There are hundreds of millions of jihadis, what's Romney smokin'?
Mitt Romney: Islam is not an inherently violent faith
Cedar Rapids, Ia. – Mitt Romney responded today to a call for a tougher stance against Muslims by saying that most Muslims are peaceful people who deserve respect.
The issue came up during a question-and-answer session at a campaign stop here this morning. A man rose from the audience, claimed he had many Muslim friends, but said, “I have never heard one Muslim condemn Islamic jihad or terrorism.

Anyone remember the news story from Starship Troopers that talks about the Mormon settlers that were massacred when the tried to settle in bug terroritory?
Bet they thought the bugs weren’t inherently violent either.
There is faith in all religions....even Atheism.....but some beliefs just become so absurd or offer role models which are so abhorrent-—it should be dumped, if you want a rational “civil” and free society.
It is why Marxists target Judeo-Christian Ethics-—which is the basis of any free and most rational society. Feminists, homosexuals and ACLU are out to destroy the institutions which make freedom possible. Virtue is necessary in free societies.

And bears don't inherently defecate in the woods.
Just finish reading the first two chapters of CAN MITT ROMNEY SERVE TWO MASTERS? on the Amazon site. Lots of history/background about the faith.
By that logic, most of the violent criminals in prison are not “inherently violent”, because only a small fraction of their time was spent committing violent crimes.

WTF does Romney know?
Who does he pretend to be? Bush Light?
Yes, presidential candidates have to say things differently that other people. You are a bigot against Mormons too?

Mitt Romney is not an inherently intelligent man.

From "Terrorist actions and Koran teaching" by Jesse Sellers (Link):
"Apologists for Islam often insist that of the two struggles, the inner jihad is the primary {as opposed to physical/war}. Yet, of the 36 times the word jihad appears in the Koran, all but 4 of these references is to the external and physical."[Which also destroys the fall back positions of claiming Jihad is about inner struggle.]
“It’s just not gonna happen.”
I’ll go with what that guy NEWT says on the subject... (for now at least)
