Terrorists Strike U.S. Infrastructure

Despite billions spent on homeland security, the Obama Administration is Bush-league when it comes to defending America’s vital power grid from home-grown terrorists. Known to experts as Sciurus carolinensis, these sly, suicidal saboteurs infiltrate transformer stations at will, denying thousands of loyal Americans their God-given right to power up their Chinese-made flat-screen TVs.

These anonymous terrorists have no respect for our flag or our traditions. They even stopped the NASDAQ Stock Exchange. What drives them? What is their motivation?  We will probably never understand. But we have plenty of tactical and intellegence information on these home-grown monsters, and we certainly know what to do with them.

All we lack is the political will.

Are you listening, Mr. President, or has the power gone out at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue?

‘What drives them? What is their motivation? ‘

Hatred of our American way of life drives them. Their motivation, is to ‘change’ that way of life.

From a free to choose any religion, to you have no choice but one religion. Islam.

They are not here to blend in to America’s ways. They are here to Islamize America.

America is the last hope of freedom. What happens when she falls to Communism, Islam?

Hell on earth.

We just need to talk to these little terrorists and negotiate a peaceful solution.
