It would be funnier if a bunch came in and told them if they didn’t convert to Christianity, that they would lose their heads.

I wouldn’t put it past the jacka$$ to announce his conversion to Islam, or some such nonsense.

Though there is nothing wrong with Jimmuh being the keynote speaker per sae... at a Muslim event....

We just know he will use the podium and venue to slam Israel and undermine American values....

You have to admire his determination. He’s not giving up that Worst President Ever title without a fight.

Carter is a despicable pillock.

I got in huge trouble back when he was my CinC, by publicly stating what I thought of him.

Had I to do it over again, I would do nothing different.

I am amazed to this day, the number of liberal scum sucking officers back then, in the late '70's and early '80's, that actually hung on every word of this puke, simply because of his prior military service.

He was then and still is, a pathetic piece of shit.

Carter?
I guess Reggie's boy-toy had a golfing date that day.
But I'm sure the administration will get some type of award that day since they're responsible for freeing more terrorists than will probably be at that convention.

The thought of Carter so incensed me that I forgot I wanted to comment on the "secret special guest".

I would surmise that it is King Putt or the Race Baiter in Charge, His Assholdedness, the disHonorable Eric Holder.

I do surely hate this administration.

It’s easier to comprehend when you understand that evil is real, satan is real, and demons are real.
In fact, it makes the world today easy to understand.

Here's hoping Jimmah goes to his reward beforehand.
The disgraced second worst POTUS in history.

Carter have been the worst president in US history until Obama dethroned him.

Australian Prime Minister and Muslims

He’s done it again..

http://www.armsmart.com/includes/emails/Kevin_Rudd2.html

He sure isn’t backing down on his hard line stance and one has to appreciate his belief in the rights of his native countrymen. A breath of fresh air to see someone lead. I wish some leaders would step up in Canada & USA . This man should be appointed King of the World ... truer words have never been spoken.

It took a lot of courage for this man to speak what he had to say for the world to hear. The retribution could be phenomenal, but at least he was willing to take a stand on his and Australia ‘s beliefs. Whole world needs a leader like this!

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd - Australia

Muslims who want to live under Islamic Sharia law were told on Wednesday to get out of Australia, as the government targeted radicals in a bid to head off potential terror attacks..

Separately, Rudd angered some Australian Muslims on Wednesday by saying he supported spy agencies monitoring the nation’s mosques. Quote:

‘IMMIGRANTS, NOT AUSTRALIANS, MUST ADAPT.. Take It Or Leave It.

I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture. Since the terrorist attacks on Bali, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Australians.

‘This culture has been developed over two centuries of struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and women who have sought freedom’

‘We speak mainly ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language. Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society . Learn the language!’

‘Most Australians believe in God. This is not some Christian, right wing, political push, but a fact, because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly documented It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools. If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.’

‘We will accept your beliefs, and will not question why. All we ask is that you accept ours, and live in harmony and peaceful enjoyment with us.’

‘This is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this. But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our Christian beliefs, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great Australian freedom, ‘THE RIGHT TO LEAVE’.’

‘If you aren’t happy here then LEAVE. We didn’t force you to come here. You asked to be here. So accept the country YOU accepted.’

Maybe if we circulate this amongst ourselves in Canada & USA , WE will find the courage to start speaking and voicing the same truths.
