It is awfully presumptuous of someone in other countries to make threats based on what an individual does in America.

Is there some basis for Muslims complaining about treatment of the Koran in every single place on Earth?

Not being a Muslim, it seems to me I can do whatever I please with a copy of the Koran. Don’t need to burn it, won’t tolerate threats against me if I do.

They expect us to bow down; because Pres Jughead bows down to everyone he encounters. He can’t help it that he’s a girl-man type of coward.

When you see the leader of a country acting like an effiniate gay man, looking for a date - well, you assume you can boss around the country that put that pansy in charge.

While Obama may love Liberace, emulating his mannerisms is not the way to convey strength and determination to those who oppose us.

Florida pastor says going ahead with Koran burning

[bill1952]

So, when they invaded the American embassy and kidnapped our people and held them prisoners while they marched in the streets and chanted Death to America, it was because we had burned a book?

They blew up the Marine barracks in Beirut because we burned a book?
They attacked the USS Cole because we burned a book?
They attacked and murdered people in our African embassies because we burned a book?
They flew planes into our civilian buildings because we burned a book?
They murdered those aid workers & doctors in Afghanistan because we burned a book?

How silly is this argument & how stupid are our people even while they are under outright attack by a fascist ideology that is determined to kill us all?

[tx_eggman]

It's cowardly to react to some crazed "pastor's" burning of a book based on the FEAR that it will incite Islamist to hate us more than they already do.

Maybe we should make sure we don't publish any cartoons that offend them ... or allow them ot operate under sharia law instead of our laws ...because to do different would offend them.

Where was the outrage in this country when the army confiscated bible in Afghanistan and burned them for fear of offending Muslims.

Linky Thing: Bibles Burned

These assclowns do NOT have the right to not be offended. Period. End. of. Story.

The fact that this act by the "pastor" of a group of 2 dozen people has become a world outrage speaks volumes about the agenda of those who have made it the "hugh and series" issue it has become.

[eyedigress]

The argument about the entire situation is who or what is protected. The White House is making a special appeal to Muslims.

This back woods yahoo in Gainesville is not serving any purpose other than media attention. If you want to burn a Koran, go for it. I won’t stop ya. Just stay off the news before you do it.

When it comes to our government, we have gone from the "home of the brave" to the "cowards corner of the world".

Obviously, getting elected to office involves some clandestine castration ritual somewhere along the way, 'cause there's not enough balls in Washington for a good game of marbles.

In fact, the only ones they are NOT afraid of in Washington are Christian Caucasions...as they don't see us as a threat to their royal thrones.

Congress seems to be easily bluffed. Someone makes a threat, and growls a little bit, they head for the hill...Capitol Hill.

Look at the yellow-bellys who wimped out on town hall meetings this last year...scared little marys who didn't want to answer any questions.

Most of them think like obama does - if they give the terrorists what they want and appease them, they'll play nice. Well, achmadinnerjacket and those other muslim dictators have already disproved that theory, a theory most of us learned from the class bully in 3rd grade.

They want to hand us (America) over to islam, and hope that it's two-for-one day at the Virgin Cafe', and they'll end up with 144 virgins instead of 72.

They don't realize they'll become the shortest guy in Congress...without a head, that is.

America didn't get strong by hiding in a gopher hole everytime someone snarls at us. I hear young people bitching about how my generation "used up" all the resources and didn't "leave any for them."

The true story is, there are still plenty of resources, but none of these people have the balls to fight for them. They're waiting on someone to deliver the goodies on a silver platter rather than going out and earning it, or digging for it.

If they want to become eunuch servants for a bunch of muslims later, then they are headed in the right direction.

“incremental sliding PC bullcrap” [Spot on!]

Regarding the esteemed General Petraeus and the Ground Zero Mosque:

Aug 22, 2010 ...
“General Petraeus Badly Betrayed by Anti-Mosque Bigots (Who are ... movers in the campaign against the “ground zero mosque” just happen to be ...” [snip]

The general is scared of us opposing the infernal mosque. So how much should we allow the good general to compromise everything this war stands for?

Should we start modifying our cartoons? Should we allow them to build a mosque on the White House lawn? Where the frigging heck does it END???!!!

One point I do wish that pastor Terry Jones should vow straight up and flat out that if the mosque plan is abolished, no korans are burned. He needs to offer that to make himself more reasonable.

“expecting we will bow down again?”

Wouldn’t “groveling” be more accurate than “bow down”?

[LongElegantLegs]

IT IS always a temptation to an armed and agile nation,
To call upon a neighbour and to say:
“We invaded you last night - we are quite prepared to fight,
Unless you pay us cash to go away.”

And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
And the people who ask it explain
That you’ve only to pay ’em the Dane-geld
And then you’ll get rid of the Dane!

It is always a temptation to a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say:
“Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away.”

And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.

It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray,
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say:

“We never pay any one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost,
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that plays it is lost!”
