Senator, just how many Arab-American families have been “rounded up” in your lifetime?

[Tulane]

John McCain will beat this guy...just watch...

[ctdonath2]

An astonishing notion indeed.

You know, I've always thought that most people misinterpreted that passage in Genesis. God never says that Cain was, or should be, his brother's keeper.

Animals in the zoo have keepers. Does an adult, sane human need one?

No, what God was asking Cain was, why did you murder your brother? And Cain didn't have a good reply, so he asked God if he was his brother's keeper. And God never said that he was.

Read it for yourself.

Genesis 4

8 Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." [d] And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.

9 Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" "I don't know," he replied. "Am I my brother's keeper?"

10 The LORD said, "What have you done? Listen! Your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground.

11 Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.

12 When you work the ground, it will no longer yield its crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth."

If I was Ms. Clinton or Mr. McCain, I would immediately demand a detailed listing of each and every “Arab-American” family which has been summarily “rounded up” in this country in the last 232 years.

My guess is this list will have 0 (zero) names on it.

“If there is an Arab American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney, it threatens my civil liberties.”

Obama, even if they overstayed a Visa?

[Petronski]

He thinks he's Denzel Washington in The Siege.

People, you've got to help me!
Bruce Willis has put Monk in an internment camp!

[chemical_boy]

The is was in a texas ad, so Obama is more than likely pandering to the Latinos. Its an obvious arrest and deportation reference

“If there is an Arab-American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney, it threatens my civil liberties. It is that fundamental belief, I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper, it is that fundamental belief that makes this country work.” - Senator Barack Obama

[jazusamo]

Excellent piece by Fairchok, he nailed Obama to a tee. BO plays on the fears of the uninformed and rallies the moonbats.

I’ve referred to him as an empty suit in the past, I’ll never do it again. An empty suit is a bumbler, BO knows exactly what he’s doing.

[Names Ash Housewares]

“rounding up”?

LOL

Who? Where?

Show me Obama.

Show me even ONE example.

[SeaHawkFan]

Obama is “getting his stupid on”. Why would he mention soething like this? It only raises the matter of his heritage which is not helful in this case.

[LucyJo]

BTTT

[endthematrix]

Is the author saying that Aran-Americans weren’t “rounded up?” Cuz after 9/11 plenty (like 5,000 IIRC) of persons were detained for questioning - some just because of their skin tone.

"If there is an Arab-American family being rounded up without benefit of an attorney, it threatens my civil liberties. It is that fundamental belief, I am my brother's keeper, I am my sister's keeper, it is that fundamental belief that makes this country work." - Senator Barack Obama

The trouble with hypotheticals is that all kinds of hateful things are possible under the cloak of rhetorical protection:

If there is a stealth radical muslim, one of millions who daily threaten to destroy us, whose first name is "bearer of muhamed (buraq)" and whose middle name honors a murderous dictator hanged for crimes against humanity (Hussein), and he is running for president of the United States of America, it doesn't take much intellectual horsepower to see that it is a profound contradiction, and the certain road to oblivion.

I personally feel totally dedicated to the task of unmasking him, and making sure that his ilk is eradicated from the face of the earth.

The trouble with the word "if" is that anything that immediately follows can almost always be assumed to be false.

[Rodger Schultz]

[Leftism is Mentally Deranged]

The government is not rounding up and expelling people who have overwhelmingly admitted that they favor terrorism, and who prove it by their donations to terrorist-front causes, and who sponsor dens of hate and indoctrination, and who hate this country.

[JCG]

This was an astonishing statement, an infuriating statement and a statement that speaks volumes to Obama's ideology.

Yes, I've wondered about B. Hussein's ideology ever since I read this:

 

Obama: Man of the World
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: March 6, 2007

Mr. Obama recalled the opening lines of the Arabic call to
prayer, reciting them with a first-rate accent. In a remark that
seemed delightfully uncalculated [...], Mr. Obama described the
call to prayer as "one of the prettiest sounds on Earth at
sunset."

The bleak fantasy of Arab-American families interned for being Arabs and, of course, for being Muslim is very plausible to the radicals that help write his speeches.

And, it must be noted, something that is greatly desired by certain FReepers, as well.

Even given the unlikelihood of the event, Obama and his speechwriters at least have the advantage of being against it.

What excuse do our FReeper friends offer for what they recommend?
