Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Tuesday the Obama administration will make “a concerted effort” to restore the image of the United States in the Islamic world and will seek to “enlist the help of Muslims around the world against the extremists.”

Unfortunately for us, HRC and the Islamic world probably agree that *we* are the extremists.

I got this in an email. It’s a little off-topic because it pertains to Obama rather than Clinton. I do not know how valid it is, but here goes:

President Barack Obama has signed an executive order presidential determination allowing hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to resettle in the United States. Sure, what can go wrong when we allow hundreds of thousands of people who have been, as Mark Steyn memorably described, “marinated” in a “sick death cult,” who voted for Hamas, and 55% of whom support suicide bombings to live here and at the American taxpayers’ expense:

By executive order, President Barack Obama has ordered the expenditure of $20.3 million in migration assistance to the Palestinian refugees and conflict victims in Gaza.

The “presidential determination” which allows hundreds of thousands of Palestinians with ties to Hamas to resettle in the United States was signed on January 27 and appeared in the Federal Register on February 4.

President Obama’s decision, according to the Register, was necessitated by “the urgent refugee and migration needs” of the “victims.”

Few on Capitol Hill took note that the order provides a free ticket replete with housing and food allowances to individuals who have displayed their overwhelming support of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the parliamentary election of January 2006.

Let’s review some of Barack Obama’s most recent actions since he was inaugurated a little more than two weeks ago:

* His first call to any head of state as president was to Mahmoud Abbas, leader of Fatah party in the Palestinian territory.
* His first one on one interview with any news organization was with Al Arabia television.
* He ordered Guantanamo Bay closed and all military trials of detainees halted.
* He ordered all overseas CIA interrogation centers closed.
* He withdrew all charges against the masterminds behind the USS Cole and 9/11.
* Today we learn that he is allowing hundreds of thousands of Palestinian refugees to move to and live in the US at American taxpayer expense.
Anyone else seeing a pattern here?

"I am a Christian," she said.

Did she say this while putting condoms and syringes on a Christmas tree again?

Muslims gloss over the invasion of Europe. Islamic imperialists still claim Spain as muslim land.

Is it me?

Clinton visited a shrine early in the morning, then signed an agreement moving 8,000 U.S. troops from Japan to Guam; she had tea with Empress Michiko in the imperial residence and took questions from students for an hour before having dinner with Prime Minister Taro Aso. She then followed that with a meeting with Aso's political nemesis, Ichiro Ozawa, the leader of the opposition Democratic Party of Japan.

Hey idiot--I still can't go to Saudi with a Bible without being thrown in jail.

And yet we're apologizing for our faults? How stupid are our leaders, anyway?

Figures, and Rush is talking about Hassan sawing his wifes head off in Buffalo (IN OUR FRIGGING COUNTRY AND NARY A WORD).

Not to mention the non-reporting of the honor killing of two daughters in Texas and Lord knows what else goes on they never report (id’s re: mall shootings, schools, vehicular manslaughter cases, explosives on campus and off, suicide bombings, etc.).

Now he’s talking about the ape that mauled the owner’s friend and got killed... that’s more like it. Taking in animals not meant for the situation and not civilized humans, yep.

As Hamas takes out Fatah sympathizers... Taliban takes out Palis and throw acid in girls faces/burns over 140 schools, as three Chicago Synagogues were messed up...

An overstatement. $20 million isn't going to fund our playing host to "hundreds of thousands" of Palestinians. The dollar amount is correct, though; I don't recall any specific number of immigrants being mentioned.

The rest of your list is completely accurate.

But I'll add yet another bullet point:

When Obama served in the Illinois State Senate, he was responsible for writing and passing a single bill. It declared that a particular date would be celebrated as "Islamic Day" in the state of Illinois.

What I want to know is when will she do something about all the extremist rattlesnakes in the Southwest? They're biting people right and left. Now I realize most rattlesnakes are peace loving rattlesnakes and never bite anybody, so I wouldn't want to paint them all with the broad brush of "terrorist." But for those who are biting people or who have bitten people, the Obama administration simply has to quit ignoring the problem and do something about it, dammit! (Hey, just trying to channel my inner liberal.)

“I am a Christian,” she said. “Through the centuries we have had many people who have done terrible things in the name of Christianity. They have perverted the religion.”

Yes she has perverted Christianity. Abortion is just one example. Unaboligetic lying is another. Shall I go on...............

History shows that indeed some terrible things where done in the name of Christianity. The Spanish Inquisition comes to mind.
However, here’s the big mistake Clinton makes. The “terrible things” done in the name of Christianity happened hundreds of years ago...CENTURIES AGO!

The terrible things Islamists have done were done YESTERDAY AND WILL BE DONE AGAIN TOMORROW!
