Jay Carney: These protests are directed at an offensive movie, not at the United States
Hotair ^

Via Mediaite. I’m not sure how to square this with the fact that in Tunisia today they were chanting, “Obama, Obama, we are all Osamas,” since I’m pretty sure the Egyptian Copt who produced the Mohammed movie isn’t named “Obama.”

Go look at the map of today’s protests assembled by the Atlantic. To the extent that anyone involved actually cares about the movie, what they care about is the fact that the U.S. government refuses to censor it. The government would like to censor it, clearly, but they’re barred by the First Amendment; Islamist totalitarians have trouble with that concept, though, so they’re holding the White House responsible for the film’s publication despite Carney’s obsequious stammering over how mean and disgusting and reprehensible and awful it is. They’re protesting the idea of free speech, in other words, which is supposed to be — supposed to be — “U.S. policy.”

Carney’s probably not stupid, but he sure thinks we are.

LOL. I wonder how Carney goes out there each day and lies like this without laughing during the news conference.

Ok, I get it.

Those are not 24 U.S. Embassies being attacked. Those are not our flags being torn down and burned. Shouts of “death to America” does not mean death to America.

That was not an American Ambassador, J. Christopher Stevens, that was murdered. Those were not two Navy SEALs and another American citizen that were murdered.

Yes, I see it now. I thank Obama and his administration for the clarity, because I was starting to get just a wee bit nervous.

I know that I will now sleep much better knowing that a very capable and competent leadership is taking care of us now.

Allah Snack bar..... Alibaba baby.

Speaking of stupid .... got something in an email today.

Picture of a grinning Obama & he's saying:
Some people say I'm stupid. Really? Here's how stupid I am: I was hired by 69 million voters who didn't even do a routine background check. I'm doing a lousy, stinking job, with a record number of people out of work. I gave guns to Mexican drug gangs, I kill innocent people all over the world with drone strikes, and I decide which laws I'm going to enforce and which ones I won't. I've doubled the deficit. I've ruined our healthcare system. And yet, I still stand an excellent change of being re-hired. That's how stupid I am. How stupid are you?

So, your basic muslim is so weak minded that he will riot against some trailers from a movie. Muslim are not bright enough to riot against the West.

muslims are bright enough to be scared to riot against the real West - the ARMED West.

muslim reprobates can't even control their own penis long enough to view a woman sans burka - they are afraid of their own impulses. muslims are childish impotent fools who will only attack the true West (the ones they really hate) when they believe they have stifled free speech, or when our arms have been removed by fiat - without the playing field leveled to their sub-standard competence, they tremble in fear.

Those thoughtless worshipers of false gods will NEVER take from us what is ours. That's right muzzies, I'm talking' 'bout YOU! I got your number.

This guy was born to be Obama’s spokesperson. He’s an idiot too. Many of the protesters that have been interviewed haven’t seen or even know about the movie.

That’s not an effigy of Obama they’re burning - it’s an effigy of the film maker. That’s the ticket...

And those aren't American flags they're burning. Those are Romney for President posters!

And the rioters are not motivated by seething anti-Christian and anti-Jewish hatred, because Islam is inclusive and tolerant!

And if the filmmaker's head is found impaled on a stake in his front yard, we will be saddened but not surprised by yet another example of Tea Party violence.

Carney knows those fools in the press room won’t question his idiocy. He just twists himself into a pretzel to defend the indefensible and the idiot press agrees and actually believes every word that comes out of his lying mouth.
