Bigger sins than offending (Tancredo writes editorial)

I like this guy.

He should leave the Republican party and go with the Constitutional party. He just seems like a better fit there rather than with the backbiting RINOs that are so heavily prevalent in today's GOP.

Hmmmmm...

I smell muslim logic.

Aren't there laws against doing that to Members of Congress?

ZING!

Mecca is central to Islam. It comprises 2 of the Five Pillars of Islam. I say, reduce it to 3.

If I were - God forbid! - a møøslimb, I'd have to think long and hard about worshiping a god who couldn't even protect his most sacred site from a mere atomic bomb.

Is he omnipotent or not????

[Dont_Tread_On_Me_888]

There was nothing wrong with his original statement.

He did not need to apologize.

He wrote an excellent article here.

On 911, 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi. What would Bush do if 19 backpack nukes were detonated in America and 15 of the 19 were detonated by Saudi terrorists?

This was proven to be a lie just days ago, yet you have the nerve to throw it back on the table?

It was spared because of cloud cover.

Did I mention that Tancredo gave the islamofacists propaganda talking points? (*Squawk!*)

Not to be too picky, but Trancrado wrote an op-ed, not an editorial. In order to write an editorial, he would either have to own a newspaper of be on the editorial board of a newspaper.

Editorials are written by the editorial board of a newspaper. Columns written by others are op-eds.

Get it right.

The point remains that Japan's most holy city, Kyoto, was spared in World War II.

IIRC (and I may not) it was spared on Nagasaki day only because it was clouded over. Nagasaki was the secondary target...

Uh in this war, the enemy is being intimidated, we just aren't seeing it since they are a covert group.

Yeah. They sure are acting intimidated...

[Publius6961]

Learn some history before you use examples that only prove your ignorance.

It gets better.
She was shown just days ago that she was wrong, with official documentation, but she chose to "forget".

Must be a muslim thing.

By the way, did I mention that Tancredo gave the islamofacists propaganda talking points? (*Sqwak!*)

First and foremost, don't allow yourself to be put on the defensive. Challenge him to present his own set of assumptions and prescriptions. You'll soon see that either he won't directly repond; much less likely, he'll actually be flushed out and expose his hand

Wow, I didn't know I was such an expert. I'm honored.

Anyway, anyway you look at it tancredo gave the islamofascists propaganda points to use in the muslim world.

[Publius6961]

The Vatican is a holy site revered by over a billion people and if a govt. official in say iran said nuke it, what would your reaction be.

My reaction would be, "there's that nutcase Dane, making off-the-wall comparisons again..."

[Publius6961]

And what will you be paying (if you can find any) after nuking a fifth of the world's oil supply?

Fantastic grasp of geography there doggie...

My reaction would be, "there's that nutcase Dane, making off-the-wall comparisons again..."

Well, no doubt you sure know about nutcases well, probably from personal experience.

Many critics of my statements have characterized them as "offensive," and indeed they may have offended some. But in this battle against fundamentalist Islam, I am hardly preoccupied with political correctness, or who may or may not be offended. Indeed, al-Qaeda cares little if the Western world is "offended" by televised images of hostages beheaded in Iraq, subway bombings in London, train attacks in Madrid, or Americans jumping to their death from the Twin Towers as they collapsed.

Hooray!! Tancredo rocks!! FINALLY, we have a REAL Politician, who tells it like it is!! I hope he runs for President. He's got my vote and my help! Tancredo for President 2008!!

[Michael Goldsberry]

... thus down goes the thread...

[Publius6961]

LOL!

That's mighty big of you.
I didn't realize she was that cute!

[Publius6961]

Point is... I'd be right.

Right?
