What an incredibly terrible photo of this gal.
All Muslims are empty vesselsNote to Gordon Brown:

That is a true statement you know.
I agree with what you said. There are different schools of thought on this. One school of thought is you use psychology and try to separate the terrorists from the muslim sheep. You publicly say Muslim is a peaceful religion (because you want them to be peaceful) while privately you know their religion is scum. Bush uses this approach. There is no point in stating the truth - which is their religion itself is the problem. I don't see us converting or slaughtering billions of muslims.
So I don't necessarily believe it is all PC. I think there is a strategy element to this - at least by Bush. To be successful we need to somehow get the peaceful muslim sheep to reject the fanatics and take care of their own problem. They have the intelligence. They know who these people are.
Having said all this simply denying and ignoring that these terrorists are muslim terrorists is silly. Our approach has to be more sophisticated than that.
I guess “flea infested, goat f*****g devil worshipers” is right out.
I believe that the next election is closer than that. However, the Tories seem to be as wimpy...
Insanity. Absolute insanity.
Terrorist is a demeaning word. How about referring to them as victims of spiritual hydrophobia.
This is brilliant. We can solve all of the world's problems. No more war, no more cancer. Just call them something else.
I suppose Advantage would help that.
OK.
They’re Allah-loving-goat-humping-cultists!

I believe it's a Canadian newspaper photo, taken outside of 10 Downing Street. Since she's a Labour minister, she probably wants to have the "common look."
Yes, the three best British monarchs since the last Plantagenet was killed, IMHO, were Elizabeth I, Victoria, and Elizabeth II. Not much to say on behalf of the men.
Then there was Boadicia, too, and Maggie Thatcher.
Yeah, and I suppose the IRA terrorists were Muslim...cuz of course terrorism has to be an Islamic phenomenon. I can just imagine the response if they had been called Catholic terrorists.
Terrorism has nothing to do with Islam. Moreover, we can’t defeat terrorism with a pr campaign or with word choice. It is policy that matters. Brown is pursuing the right policies, and that is what matters.
Lord Mountbatten would be amused.
“we commit suicide with PC and Liberals...”
Always, always give Liberals their fair share of credit for destroying this great nation and our future.
All of Europe is going to hell in a hand basket, and apparently Great Britain is leading the way.
The IRA terrorists were Marxists. They just happened to be Catholics, but they were not acting in the name of God or the Church.
Moreover, with one or two exceptions, which I think the Provos may have been responsible for, they did not deliberately kill civilians. They almost invariably phoned in a warning when they blew something up.
Terrorists, yes, but in no way comparable to Muslim terrorists. The only people in Ireland who deliberately and indiscriminately killed civilians were the Orangemen.
