Clinton and other Democratic presidential candidates in debate decline to use term 'radical Islam'

Hillary Clinton and the other Democratic presidential candidates are being criticized for declining to use the words "radical Islam" during Saturday night's debate, following the deadly terror attacks in Paris.

Former Secretary of State Clinton, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and former Maryland Gov. Martin '’Malley declined to use the words after being asked during the CBS debate whether they would agree with GOP presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio saying, "We are at war with radical Islam."

The front-running Clinton said using the term "radical Islam" would be "painting with too broad a brush."

She also said the term was "not particularly helpful."

"I don't think we're at war with Islam," Clinton continued. "I don't think we're at war with all Muslims. I think we're at war with jihadists."

They are in denial.

Let more of this third world, violent vermin in, that's the solution! The Muslims are elated. The left never admits when they are wrong, but rather pursue their failed policies with even more vigor.

The left is in denial. They are blaming guns. Blaming intolerance. Blaming racism. Blaming global warming.

Blaming everything but Islam and Muslim immigrants.

These are Obama's allies.


Watch this chilling message from ISIS to us.

Obama's handiwork. Merkel & Hollande's folly.

They will not let a good atrocity go to waste in an effort to further their left wing agenda.

What everyone needs to understand about Democrat leftism in the the U.S. is that it is a coalition comprised of many interest groups; some large; some small, each of which is willing to support the other in order to maintain the strength and solidarity of the coalition. Radical Islam is one of those groups; hence, it will generally not be criticized as such.

Islam is Islam is radical and aggressive and hate-filled towards infidels like Christisns, Jews, Hindus, -and others. There’s no need to add “radical” to Islam — that would just be redundant

Hill apparently doesn’t know that all believers in Islam are jihadists. Prepare for attacks here and soon. They will be used as an excuse to round up guns, and any people that don’t agree with these loony leftists.

Don’t put your faith in the elections, I for one believe the elections will be canceled. We are on our own.

They all agree the best way to combat Radical Islam is to refuse to utter the words “Radical Islam”.
