Obama: "ISIL Is Not Islamic"

Grant said:
This inept bumbler is the President of the United States and still needs his followers to decipher what he was really trying to say. It becomes ever more pathetic for both as time passes.

No, this is common knowledge and the proper responsibility of the listener.

But I did. I often reminded those who went of on hyperbolic rants to back up, and get closer to the actual facts.

That's how you remember it eh? Interesting.

No, it's how it was. I got a lot of heat from the other extreme, especially when I banned a few.

Puhleeze, whatever shroud you carried throughout that time was quickly uncovered when your band of merry libs at that site decided that it was imploding, and you all went on your tirade banning, and kicking out those that didn't truly agree with your own views...You unmasked yourself long before you came here trust me...

Hardly. You just have sour grapes.
 
As fun as it is Joe, bantering back and forth about the prior decade or so knowing you, this thread is about Obama declaring that ISIS is not Islamic...What are your thoughts on that?

I know. You're the one who started the diversion. I always laugh when you do that and act all "it's not the topic" silly. But by all means, please, present something on the thread.
 
Boo Radley said:
LOL. Take responsibility for your actions.

So, you have a poll? And polls mean what exactly?

Well, this one seems to be saying that 70% of American's think he couldn't find his arse with both hands as far as his understanding of the threats from the ME...

What do you see?
 
No thoughts Joe? Typical...Ah well, run away.

How does this factoid related to the Islamicity or otherwise of the DAESH? The topic? It doesn't.

Obama made a stupid statement, and people see that..."DAESH"? How many names are we going to invent for this group of scum? What's next? "Fuzzy Bunny"?

It may say people think this, but that is hardly a factual thing. Opinion isn't equal to fact. Frankly, these things are useless for this type of question. Polls might tell us who will win an election, but that can't tell us much of anything about what he is or isn't doing well.

Do you think that a President's power to act in this country is directly related to the will of the people?

I prefer, as I always have, for congress to declare war. That is how it should be done. Presidents, and not congress either for that matter, do not put everything to a vote and wait for approval. They are elected to act in our interest, but not to act as we vote from moment to moment.

That said, much of the criticism he faces is exaggerated and often part of a misrepresentation. He is right to separate ISIS from Islam. He is right to put the threat in proper perspective. And the people do want us back in Iraq. But have no fear, another election cycle is around the corner. Choose wisely young padawan.

Your President made a factual statement, which has been echoed by Muslims around the world. Their behaviour is not Islamic. The stupidity lies with those who repeat the lie that they are, and validate the name they falsely give themselves.
 
Sorry to break this up a bit, but I want to keep thoughts separate as they should be:

Then you must be supremely disappointed in Obama right about now.

Why not? Isn't that primarily how the founders set it up? Was the vote not meant to slow things down so that we as a people could make measured decisions? So that the power wasn't set up in one branch, or office for that matter, or even person? Instead, what we have today is Obama using the false premise of congress not doing anything, by having Harry Reid stop anything that doesn't match the agenda and then Obama is using his office to act unilaterally, and some say illegally, while the useful idiots in the masses, and media all blame it on the prior administration. It's a slick ruse, but a ruse none the less.

They are elected to act in our interest, but not to act as we vote from moment to moment.

The Constitution is clear on how power is delegated...

I would say it is Obama, and his supporters that are the misrepresenting party here.

He is right to separate ISIS from Islam.
Click to expand...

I don't think so. These people are adamant in their fervent belief.

He is right to put the threat in proper perspective.
Click to expand...

"proper perspective" in minds like yours and Obama's is to wait and see if another mass casualty attack takes place, then commission a study of what went wrong, by then he'll be out of office...

And the people do want us back in Iraq.
Click to expand...

Most people with any military experience at all knew that we shouldn't have pulled out.

But have no fear, another election cycle is around the corner. Choose wisely young padawan.

A demo started Vietnam, and now another demo is starting this war using the same template to start this one, and I see nothing has changed on how demo messes will be blamed on the next repub to take office.

We are not about to send American boys 9 or 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves.

No, it was a lie...The Koran has over 190 verses in it speaking of putting "non believers" to death in the name of Allah. I know of NO other religion in the world that calls for those not willing to convert to their religion be killed...

Islam is a fraud, that was thought up by a scumbag pedophile in the 7th century.
