I call bullsh*t! Leave and go back to your sandhills and take all of your kind with you.

Islam is Islam. Cain was right.

Very, very, very interesting. Thanks for posting.

Relax said the Muslim, we are programmed to deceive...

You know what they say.

“Any republican is better than a democrat” lol

In last year’s congressional race, one of the GOP challengers in my district was the Democrat who lost the general election in 06.

Shouldn’t she be running in Kuwait, or Saudi Arabia or Libya??

Wonder if Chris Wallace would ask her if she would be submissive to her husband like he asked Michele Bachmann.

Both parties treat Muslims badly, which is why American economy is going bankrupt fighting Islam.

And this is what her campaign is really about, under the guise of X,Y,Z...whatever.

No muslim will ever be my countryman. I'll never trust one.

Verify before trust.

Verify before trust.

Not with this group. Assume evil and act accordingly. Remember, per their koran, they are instructed to lie.

Ahmed, who was recently diagnosed with a mental disorder, was checking herself into Providence St. Vincent Medical Center,

LOL Yippie!

Yet another reason I’ll never command a starship I suppose.

At first when I saw the headline, I thought it was another Democrat politician going over to the Republican party after the election. But no. She lost. She was never a real candidate. And presumably she was annoyed that she didn’t do better in the Democrat primary.

I imagine she was deeply offended that she didn’t do better.

All men can see these tactics whereby I conquer, but what none can see is the strategy out of which victory is evolved.

All war is based on deception.

Be extremely subtle, even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious, even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent’s fate.
