Bravo Marie! Send this to all the news stations and congress....none dare call it terrorism.
Roe Conn, yesterday on WLS AM Chicago drive time, said, "Let be the first to call this terrorism."
I had always regarded him as ideologically neutral, i.e. having no particular axe to grind, but during the presidential campaign, I accused him in my own mind of "drinking the kool-aid", as he seemed to lean towards Obama. He commented on the air that listeners were accusing him of this, but he denied it.
Anyway, he came up the straight-shooter of old on this one.
I am furious. This is how they are going to sweep it under the rug?
And there you have it. Bless you for calling a spade a spade. I too am sick of the cowardliness that goes on when people are too afraid to speak the truth or do something about it.
Thank you, Marie!
Outstanding thread.
Few things on earth can shame a man as much as a woman calling him a coward. (It’s not for nothing that Spartan mothers told their sons, “Come home with this shield or upon it.”) When women once again understand this, men will once again stand and fight.
Thank you for posting this.
You’ve got it.
Sadly, the military knew of this guy for some time as well, and they too will likely do whatever is necessary not to be fired from their jobs. Don’t be surprised if this terrorist doesn’t come out of his coma.
They are not "our" media, as they prove again and again.
They are the DNC's propaganda wing. If they are dominating the discussion with chatter about "stress" and military suicides, as if twelve soldiers just suicided themselves, then you know that is the line being handed down from the White House gang.
He is a TERRORIST. He is a terrorist sympathizer. (As indicated by his internet postings.) He is a Muslim Extremist. And you damn well know it.
You are right on the money.
Those of you who lack the ability to accept and report the truth of this situation are nothing more than cowards
In my opinion, they are sold out. As in, "sold-their-souls-to-the-devil" sold out.
Good post.
I was ranting about this to my mom this morning and she said, “Why does it matter what we call it?”
It matters because this PC BS is an insult to every service member who steps up to the plate. To keep repeating, “How sad! And this was done by one of our own...” is crap.
He was NOT one of our own. He was a traitor and a terrorist. Period.
These jerks must STOP IMPLYING THAT THE MILITARY DID THIS *TOO* HIM!
(By the way, I *love* your screen name!)
Bless you.
Don’t let ANYONE shut you up for being politically incorrect.
A little something I found at mises.org
Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, nor to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is to co-operate with evil, and in some small way to become evil oneself. One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.

As a navy mom, I’m soooo with you!
Marie,
I “almost” never join in with a me-too post. If I can’t contribute, I just read.
You wrote enough and wrote it right enough that all I need to reply with is “me to.”
A NON PC BUMP!
BTTT!
You are so RIGHT!!!!! And it is well stated. No excuses!!!!
This is a POS coward who turned into a terrorists!!!!!!!
Most of the world knows this. The PC morons are looking for a way to explain this away.
Do not let them cover this one up!!!!!
He is a terrorists.
He is a coward.
He is going to die by the hand of an American.!!!!!!!!!!
My respect and admiration go to you and your brave husband. May the Lord God keep both or you in His protection. AND MAY SOME ONE IN THE MEDIA CALL THIS AS YOU HAVE: TERRORISM!
I think the lady’s got it 100% right.
They are too cowardly of the consequences of actually acknowledging the true enemy we face.
No, Islam is not a “religion of peace”. If there isn’t some grand reformation, it is and will remain a religion of violence, conquest, domination and death.
I guess she told THEM!
