The Hussein has been insulted. Send his sons to deal with blasphemers.

God help us!

This was strange:

“There’s no exact words that were said,” said Police Chief Jose L. Lopez Sr. in a telephone interview Wednesday from San Diego, where he is attending the International Association of Chiefs of Police conference. “It wasn’t a racial slur, but we’re still investigating it.”

and then this:

“Bonfield added that if the allegations are found to be true and officers posted racially charged statements, then an appropriate response by the department would be warranted.”

So which is it? First they say ‘no exact words were said’...then ‘no racist slur said’..then said the allegations were that they made ‘racially charged statements’!!

hmmmmm.....color me confused. Was it a racist THOUGHT? LOL

Which brings up a very good point- As many of you know, certain keywords are flagged already by our government, and now that Barack, a black man is in office, you can bet that the government will be scrutinizing certain keywords much more closely and over-reacting, so it would be prudent on our parts to refrain from venting too carelessly and to be careful how we phrase things, as I’m sure FR is being watched pretty closely by hte Nazis, err I mean ‘patriots’ under Barack (His ‘civilian Security detail).

Funny htouygh that it’s only the Republicans and conservatives who have to watch their words while the pukes over on DU, Adrianna Huffington’s site etc can say anythign they want with impunity-

If I had made the remarks, I’d make certain the gestapo thugs didn’t have to bother with an investigation. PIGs! Patriot lawyers better line up to defend the Constitution, because that is what these maggots are attacking.

Have these people, and many like them, been as diligent in combing websites for negative remarks about President Bush for the last eight years? Who was investigating all the negative things said about him?

President Obama will rule America like Amadmanutjob rules Iran.

Do I understand this story correctly?
1. Nothing was said;
2. There were no racial slurs;
3. They are still investigating.

They are investigating WHAT? The Durham police are becoming quite expert in investigating non-crimes.

No exact words, no racial slur, but derogatory? How do they define derogatory? Big ears? Liar? Just asking.

Silver, this kind of response on the part of Obamaniacs is rampant! They are so irrationally enraptured that they will not abide anyone speaking about him in less than hushed tones of awe.

This is really not good, people. Really.

Yup, communists can't wait until January, hard at it now. Freedom of speech is about to go.

The department's code of conduct, under the heading "private life," states that an officer's "character and conduct while off duty must always be exemplary, thus maintaining a position of respect in the community in which he or she lives and serves. The officer's personal behavior must be beyond reproach."

This code of conduct is so broad that it basically means that the department can come down on any officer at any time over anything. Giving this kind of a tool to PC thugs is just asking for trouble.

All future congressional hearings will now begin with the question:

Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Republican Party?

Will it be the 1st Amendment or 2nd Amendment that will be destroyed first?
