Democratic Party insiders are said to be furious over published reports identifying the five al Qaeda cell members arrested over the weekend in Lackawanna, New York as registered Democrats.
Sunday's Buffalo News initially revealed the inconvenient detail, noting first that "members of Lackawanna's Yemeni community describe the five arrested men as 'all-American.'"
"They include a telemarketer, a used car salesman and a former high school soccer star who was named friendliest in his class. Four are married, and three have children. All are registered voters Democrats," announced USA Today on Monday, picking up the News report.
News of the al Qaeda cell's political affiliation can only exacerbate the party's already growing image as being soft on terrorism. Monday morning, for instance, noting that the Lackawanna five will be unable to go to the polls in the future, WABC Radio's Curtis Sliwa joked, "There's five less votes for Hillary Clinton."
Some Republicans see the "Al Qaeda were Democrats" reports as poetic justice.
Over the years, Democratic Party spinmeisters and their liberal media friends have repeatedly attempted to make hay over the political ties of domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh, whom President Clinton once tried to tie to conservative radio talker Rush Limbaugh.
All your base (Al Queda) are belong to Hillary?
You ought to email this sentiment to Rush - this comment would give him an hours worth of material... ROTFLMAO!
Did you see that they're accusing some right wingers of filling out voter registration cards in these guys names?? I don't know if I can take much more of laughing this hard!
While I agree that statistically speaking, there MUST be some Muslim Republicans, human nature being what it is...I find Muslims voting OVERWHEMINGLY for Bush to be a little bit of a stretch...ESPECIALLY since the followers of Loonie Louie Farrakhan are Black, American Muslims, and they do NOT vote Republican.
I'd like a link to proof that Muslims "voted overwhelmingly for Bush in 2000", please.
Beautiful! It reminds me of the long faces of Liberals, when it was announced that the killer of John F. K. was not a Right Winger, but a Communist--a member of the Fair Play For Cuba Committee, who had actually tried to defect to Russia at one point.

"This ain't no joke folk. The Democrats for their silences are about to get a serious dose of mob justice. Looking at Nasty history, the first thing that is going to happen is that the brown shirts are going to take to the streets with massive fear riots. The gov will then declare marshal law, and finish the job with the police. Rest assured, it will happen swiftly, and no one will be here on the DU to talk about it. When the war gets started, look for talk of the "fifth column" sort of talk. The enemy within and all that rot.
And for any conservatives within the sound of my voice. Do not rest soundly. The first rule of fascism is that they always eat there own wounded.
Now it the time to seriously start considering moving to Mexico or Canada, and you would be well advised to make contingency plans for flight if you are less inclined to move."
"The enemy within and all that rot."
Where have they been. We've known this for a long time.
Who Knew!?
What they really fear is the U.S bringing back the draft.
Any bets on their party affiliation?
See post #102.
No...they're not merely hypocrits, as far as I can tell : they simply apply misdirection via liberal - no pun intended, but there it is - application of "projection" - or more accurately, "transferrence" of THEIR sins onto the innocent party - no pun intended THERE, either, but there it is again.
They know exactly what they're doing....maybe it's better termed "intentional hypocrisy". This is a part of the left-wing political playbook.
I agree about running with this though...and all OTHER egg-on-face, left-wing agenda, caught-in-another-lie, backlashes, and going to work for GOP candidates from the lowest local levels to the highest offices. Maybe we can retake our country.
