Americans are calling for PROFILING, yes, that is the correct word to use. They want security measures that target those with the highest probability of being terrorists. Yes, that includes Muslims, Arabs, Palestinians, and those with roots from the Middle East and North Africa – oh yeah, and those who are already on watch lists because of their behavior. Why is this not being done, even though it is the most efficient and effective way to counter terrorism? Because those in power have too much empathy for those who would be targeted for closer examination. They have decided to sacrifice the safety of Americans for the comfort and tranquility of a few, many of whom sympathise with the enemy.

If the empathy and political correctness continue, the enemy will succeed with progressively more and larger attacks. Imagine a nuke in NY or DC, a Beslan massacre in a school near you. This will eventually result in an anger and desire for retribution from the American people not seen since WWII. Obama’s ilk will not retain power in the world they create. In the end the profiling will come, along with frustration, anger, and retribution – the result will not be pretty for either side. Unless a rational approach is taken soon we will see a war that deserves the moniker of WWIII. Calm will only come after hell has been visited upon Earth. If there is true empathy for innocent Muslims, rational profiling now is in their best interests, because if it comes later it will include much more than an extra pat down. There will be deportations, holding camps, monitoring, interrogations, registrations, pledges of allegiance, restrictions from sensitive positions, restrictions from ownnig weapons, closing of mosques, censoring, and yes, executions. Those will be the small steps that occur in America, what happens outside of America will pale in comparison to what Bush did after 9/11. Imagine the destruction of Mecca and Medina, nuclear bunker busters in Isfahan, Natanz, unrestricted assassinations, etc. Imagine what Israel does today times 1 million and you are imagining the world that Obama creates.

This is going to be Obama’s “My Pet Mooselimb” moment.

Topics (corrected with Barry's REAL answers):

1) Steps feds taking: We will prosecute all passengers who denied the alleged man-caused disaster perpetrator his civil rights by so savagely and stupidly attacking him on the plane.

2) Investigating ongoing: DHS secretary Janet Napolitano is right on top of it. She is supremely qualified.

3) How awesome he is and how HE stopped the attack. In spite of George Bush's failings I was able to thwart the attack: Even though - had the bomb detonated as intended - the 72 virgins would have been disappointed because the bomb, er, incendiary device caused irreparable damage to the alleged perpetrator's genitals, I am the primary reason the alleged "attack" failed.

4) Actions to protect Americans: Invoke Sharia law immediately (Oops! Did I really say that? Who put that up on the Teleprompter?)

5) Statement on the unrest in Iran: Oh I just realized, I'm late for my golf match. I'll have to get back to you on that.

/sarcasm

“Isolated extremist” is the most important thing to take away from this statement. I find this to be unbelievable. He cannot admit publicly that we are under attack from radical Islam. Major Hasan and now the Nigerian nightmare are just the foot soldiers of an enemy that is bent on our destruction, i.e., modernity and Western Civilization. They are not insane or isolated.

LOL at “isolated extremists”

Karl Rove on live now bi**h-slapping that statment: This wasn't isolated, he was a member of a large organization called Al-queda, that wants to kill as many Americans as possible in the most horrific ways",

"I was astonished at the dismissive, backhanded attempt to brush this attempted terrorist attack aside!"

I love Karl Rove!

Rove: "I'm astonished at "isolated extremist" statement and the dismissiveness of this administration".

The perpetrator has now "lawyered up" and will be interrogated by cops, with a lawyer, as opposed to an "enemy combattant" which would be immediately waterboarded.

6) I inherited this mess. The blame belongs on my predecessor. Now, it’s time to get back to my vacation.

So, why is BHO insistent on characterizing these as isolated incidents when they are clearly not?

Does BHO think we're all mesmerized and believe his every word or is it that his dad was a muslim and according to the Koran, once a muslim, always a muslim and BHO isn't so hot on Christianity is he? We aren't a Christian nation per BHO.

What is BHO really trying to accomplish for or against us?

I guess the dipshit doesn't read FR. There are numerous stories linking this clown to Al Qaeda. They are claiming that he was acting on their orders..

What will it take? Will it take muslim terrorists setting HIS pants on fire to shake him up? Unless he takes a direct hit, in which case he will not have the opportunity to turn his back and dash his love for his muslim brethren ‘cause he will be toast. Let's continue jumping all over the politicians and the White House on the insanity of their policy and handling of muslim terrorists. We patriots need to stand together and DEMAND that this government PROTECT us NOW. obama? You're on your own!

Karl Rove is good at bitch slapping Obama but he also gave Obama a good grade for his Presidency a week back which I did not like, but LOVE the bitch slapping he gave him today. The second I heard “Isolated extremists” my ears went up.

His grandmother was a unitarian, his mom an agnostic, and his dads were non-practicing muslims.

When he converted to Christianity as an adult, it was in the the church of the former muslim Jeremiah Wright who said some very unChristian things.

He is on record saying that his kids don’t get Christmas gifts (he chooses one gift for the whole family). Fine. Whatever. He cites security and being unfamiliar with a good church in DC as reasons he doesn’t go out on Sundays. How about a private minister coming to the White House? Would that work?

It’s a matter of choice. He’s non-observant and while he makes grand gestures to the Islamic community, on Christianity, he’s silent. He compared Jesus’ message to socialism and missed the meaning of Christmas (he said “love” whereas it was a gift of redemption).

He did go to church on Easter. But I guess he figured the masses who cling to religion were paying attention a couple of months into his presidency.

Now he’s on vacation.

The administration calls them radicals and extremists but refuses to identify what the ideology is that they express.

Obama’s grandfather was an avowed communist. His mother ( Stanley Ann) reportedly was an atheist.

Stanley Dunham (the grandfather) would spoke pot and discuss commie philosophy with black communist and writer Frank Marshall Davis—who could well be Bam’s dad.

Barack Obama certainly grew up a Red Diaper Doper Baby, heir to the Leftist revolution of 1968.
