The White House isn’t facing up to the fact that the U.S. faces domestic terrorism, as evidenced by the Fort Hood attack last week, says Walid Phares, a senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies.

Major Nidal Hasan is:
A terrorist.
Insane, by reason of Islam.
Was only doing his duty to his God.
These answers are all the same.
Still waiting for that blockbuster story about the major media personality threatened by Obowma administration.
Still typing?
Oh for crying out loud, give Obama a break!
Everybody knows that Obama and his administration have their hands full, just in keeping track of us gun packing, bible clinging, vets.
I would like to see one of you travel all over the world bowing and apologizing to those that want to kill us...... that takes time, you know.
Imagine the stress Obama is under in trying to pay off his constituency with our grandchildren’s money.... he just makes it look easy. Add to that, the time it takes to shuffle our money around to be ready to buy votes for his second run.
You people are being unfair in your attacks by not considering how busy this guy really is. After all, he’s got a country to destroy... ours.
Oh my.....I really feel bad ,...not having more consideration of the Fuhrer....I mean Leader... /s
These pricks are every bit as bad as the Clinton crowd. Three more years and counting...
