Obama the Post Turtle

While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher, whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.

Eventually the topic got around to Barack Obama and his bid to be our President.

The old rancher said,"Well, ya know, Obama is a 'post turtle'."

Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a 'post turtle' was.

The old rancher said,"When you're driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a 'post turtle'."

The old man saw a puzzled look on the doctor's face, so he continued to explain.

"You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there, and you just want to help the dumb azz get down."

Obama.... How did you get to that post? How did you get the nomination of the Democratic Party to run for President? Who brought you, who sponsored you? Change to what?

Obama Delegate Yusuf Yee or James J. Yee....When returning from duty at the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base, he was arrested on September 10, 2003, in Jacksonville, Florida, when a U.S. Customs agent found a list of Guantanamo detainees and interrogators among his belongings. He was charged with five offenses: sedition, aiding the enemy, spying, espionage, and failure to obey a general order. These charges were later reduced to mishandling classified

I do not believe his exoneration...from everything I read, he was pretty guilty, and at least very involved in very questionable activities.

Tragically, a lot of this kind of thing has been going on within our Armed Forces and Pentagon, where for political correct reasons we have allowed some sappers inside the perimeter.

Going back to the eve of the Iraq war this was so when the Black Muslim sergeant, Hasan Akbar, fragged the C&C tent the night of the invasion. Idaho lost its first soldier, Major Gregory L. Stone, that night. (The Muslim soldier was convicted and sentenced to death...he should have been summarily executed on the battlefield IMHO.)

And these are the types that gravitate to Obama.

Little wonder.


AUDACITY OF TRUTH-BARACK NEVILLE HUSSEIN CHAMBERLAIN OBAMA


Barack Hussein Obama is the very apex of the anti-American, internal enemy in this country. IMHO, his election as President would be the greatest coup an enemy has ever scored against our nation, and could well turn into the greatest disaster this nation has ever faced.

He was found working for the ENEMY, with classified info that never should have left Guantanamo, but he slithers away with an honorable discharge and is now another leftist hack for Obambi?? What a screwed up country!

Yee, a West Point graduate, was accused in 2003 of being part of a spy ring at the U.S. prison for suspected terrorists in Guantanamo Bay. He spent 76 days in solitary confinement before being exonerated

The charges were reduced, that is far from being exonerated. Nice try at rewriting history though.

Silence of Guilt-The group that vetted accused spy James "Yousef" Yee won't talk to reporters Frontpagemag.com ^ | 9/24/03 | Center for Security Policy

Posted on ‎9‎/‎24‎/‎2003‎ ‎3‎:‎41‎:‎19‎ ‎AM by kattracks

The group that vetted accused terrorist spy James "Yousef" Yee to serve as a US military chaplain isn't talking to reporters. Meanwhile, news of the arrest of a second US serviceman who dealt with al Qaeda detainees at the US naval base in Guantanamo has people asking just how deeply the terrorist enemy has penetrated the United States armed forces.

Response from the Wahhabi Lobby so far is typical: a combination of (1) hiding from reporters, (2) complaining that the alleged spies were being picked on because they are Muslim, and (3) changing the subject.

The American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs Council, which reportedly recommended Capt. Yee, won't comment to journalists, referring callers to its Website, which states simply that reporters should not bother Yee's ailing parents.

Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) Executive Director Nihad Awad implies in an initial statement that the government is making an issue of the alleged spies' religion. (Awad is an avowed supporter of the Hamas suicide bombing group. He declined an opportunity to testify recently before a Senate panel, avoiding any cross-examination.) As of this writing, CAIR's headline-packed Website is silent about the arrests.

The other arrested serviceman, US Air Force Senior Airman Ahmad I. al Halabi, served as an Arabic interpreter at Guantanamo and was secretly apprehended in July on eight counts of espionage and three counts of aiding the enemy.

The Yee arrest validates the Center for Security Policy's long-held concerns that the Clinton-era Pentagon program to hire and vet Muslim chaplains is dangerously flawed and harmful to national security.
