FREE SPEECH IS ONLY IMPORTANT WHEN READING AN “ENEMY COMBATIVE” THEIR MIRANDA RIGHTS.

Why are Liberals unwilling to identify terrorist acts for what they are and whom they represent? Why are Veterans and Christians subject to Homeland Security profiles while no one will utter the word’s “Radical Islamic Terrorist”? How is it that Law Enforcement Officials only behave stupidly when investigating individuals our President knows personally? Why are Conservative Commentators and Tea Partyer’s labeled as “Messenger’s of Hate” when Liberals and Radicals are celebrated for their “Patriotism”? Where has our country gone and how can we get it back?

Last night as most of us celebrated Christmas with our families and friends another Al Qaeda attack on the United States was prevented. While we sorted through wrapping paper and feasted on bountiful pleasures a plot to detonate an explosive on a Northwest Airlines flight headed towards Detroit was foiled. I will not comment upon the fact that President Obama is on vacation since he is entitled to enjoy the holiday season. Our Commander in Chief is currently monitoring this situation from his vacation in Hawaii. I will state had George W. Bush acted in the same manner as Barack Obama has chosen every leftist commentator would have brutally criticized him. . Therefore I shall show President Obama the courtesy President Bush did not receive and stick to the issues.

Rep Peter King, (R-N.Y.) identified the suspect as Abdul Mudallad, a 23-year-old Nigerian man known in counter-terror circles. Mudallad admitted to investigators he was acting on behalf of Al Qaeda. Although CNN prohibited Representative King from contributing the information; other news sources provided the information to the American Public. I am certainly not a Constitutional Lawyer like our current President ; however if I remember correctly the 2nd Amendment guarantees our citizens the right to free speech? It is absurd that CNN would not accept the information that Representative King was sharing considering he is a Ranking Member of the Homeland Security Committee. I guess Representative King was not enough of a credible source for CNN? Maybe there is something deeper than accurately reporting the news; perhaps the current administration is too concerned with being Politically Correct?

We have become a nation that will end up perishing because we are afraid of offending our enemies. Political correctness is the cancer destroying the fundamental core principles that millions once flocked to in their escape from tyranny. We have become more concerned about the rights of the terrorist rather than the rights of their victims. We will stop at no lengths to prosecute those whom have protected our nation; however those whom have sworn to destroy it must be treated fairly. We cannot suspect a Doctor spouting Racial Islamic viewpoints but beware of the Tax Payer concerned about the trillions being spent by our government. This brings me to my conclusion I truly hope that someone read Abdul Mudallad his Miranda Rights because Our Founding Fathers Created the 2nd Amendment solely for that purpose; protecting terrorists out to destroy our nation. I would hate to think that Abdul Mudallad’s rights were violated during his plot to kill innocent people and attack our nation. If you really believe my last two statements you are well beyond trying to save this great nation and should demand that Congress add a Terrorist Rehabilitation Clause in the Health Care Package.
