Its one thing to avoid the terrorist label when reporting on Ft. Hood suspect Major Nidal Hasan. Its quite another to say that those who do use it are making a political calculation to paint the Democrats as soft terror. Yet thats what MSNBCs Rachel Maddow insisted on her Nov. 11 broadcast.
Maddow launched into a minute-and-a-half soliloquy on why it is bad for the Democratic Party when commentators label Hasan a terrorist. She even attempted to make the case on Hasans behalf against a terrorism label. Who needs a legal team when you have friends like Maddow and Chris Matthews, who fretted over the legality of Hasans al Qaeda communications?
Remember this one? Yes, it is the old paint the Democrats as soft on terror routine, Maddow said. But in order to play that politicizing terrorism, anti-Democratic greatest hits, the Fort Hood case has to be terrorism. Now, regardless of how you feel about the political issue of politicizing terrorism, its worth asking was Fort Hood, technically speaking, terrorism? Its not just a political question. Its not just a judgment call. Its not just a matter of taste. Its a question to which there is an answer, a legal answer.

Let them try to downplay it all they want to.
For murdering a young PREGNANT woman:
As far as I am concerned, and it is only a humble opinion, this is the straw that breaks the camels back. All the anti-death penalty, anti-torture, tree-hugging, terrorist apologist pieces of shit in this country can shut up and step aside while this sonofabitch HASAN is strung up by a meat hook or two and slowly whittled into the next plane of existence. RIGHT NOW would be good. SOONER even better.
He should be staked out on an anthill (in before this is a reply to a purged message). Or maybe strung up non-fatally, but given cuts to slowly drain his blood away. Guess those would fall under the “cruel and unusual” thing though.
Just telling it how I feel.
NewsFlash Dems nearly everyone in America figured out that it was a terrorist attack when he yelled “Allah Akbar” while he shot everyone so you all look ridiculous trying to deny it and people know you are lying!
I would like to state for the record my wholehearted agreement.
