And they think we are screwed up.

Why It's Important to Listen Carefully........
Osama bin Laden went to heaven and was greeted by George Washington, who slapped him and yelled, "How dare you try to destroy the nation I helped conceive?"
Patrick Henry then approached and punched Osama in the nose. James Madison entered and kicked him in the shin. An angry Thomas Jefferson whacked Osama over the head with a cane.
The thrashing continued as John Randolph, James Monroe and 66 other early Americans came in and unleashed their anger on the terrorist leader.
Suddenly, as Osama lay writhing in unbearable pain, an angel appeared.
"This is not what you promised me," said Osama.
"Come on, Osama," the angel replied. "I told you there would be 72 Virginians waiting for you in heaven."

BTW, I'm pretty sure they just get tended to by those virgins, like brought grapes and such, they don't actually get to "violate" them. I could be wrong though, islam is definitely not my bag.

For any sane person, he wrote, heaven would be an intolerable bore.
Not so in Islam. The Quran describes a lush garden-like heaven in which each man can be married to a bevy of beautiful dark-eyed females called houri. The passage is open to interpretation, but scholars say these are not earthly girls who died but heavenly creatures and, it would appear, they can be deflowered and then automatically reflower.

Rep Power: 5075 | Re: Ft. Hood Horrible and tragic as this all is, from a political strategy POV and specifically it's timing, it might have been a stroke of luck. Between Ft. Hood and the shooting yesterday in Orlando, it sure has taken the attention of the people away from Washington this weekend and the political goings on with healthcare and all the backroom deals this will entail.
Also as it's being decided to move forward or not in Afghanistan, how perfect for the President to have a reminder of how dangerous these muslim types are and even for Sec. of State Clinton as she also tries to steer public policy on the foreign agenda side in relation to muslim extremism, especially the Iranian threat.
I'm sure the old Clinton machine (Rahm et al) now working for President Obama see this all as manna from heaven, and a familar ring to it? 
Don't dare think outside!

He spoke for nearly two minutes giving "thank yous" to a conference crew as if he were receiving some award that they helped him in achieving. Then he spoke about what happened at Fort Hood. I listened to it live over the radio, and the radio station keep playing it all day for they too were shocked at his behavior. |

[IMG]http://media.nbcchicago.com/images/410*288/92808551.jpg[/IMG] President Obama didn't wait long after Tuesday's devastating elections to give critics another reason to question his leadership, but this time the subject matter was more grim than a pair of governorships.
After news broke out of the shooting at the Fort Hood Army post in Texas, the nation watched in horror as the toll of dead and injured climbed. The White House was notified immediately and by late afternoon, word went out that the president would speak about the incident prior to a previously scheduled appearance. At about 5 p.m., cable stations went to the president. The situation called for not only his trademark eloquence, but also grace and perspective.
But instead of a somber chief executive offering reassuring words and expressions of sympathy and compassion, viewers saw a wildly disconnected and inappropriately light president . At the event, a Tribal Nations Conference hosted by the Department of Interior's Bureau of Indian affairs, the president thanked various staffers and offered a "shout-out" to "Dr. Joe Medicine Crow -- that Congressional Medal of Honor winner." Three minutes in, the president spoke about the shooting, in measured and appropriate terms. Who is advising him? Anyone at home aware of the major news story of the previous hours had to have been stunned. An incident like this requires a scrapping of the early light banter. The president should apologize for the tone of his remarks, explain what has happened, express sympathy for those slain and appeal for calm and patience until all the facts are in. That's the least that should occur. |

But, darnit twice in a row for mass shootings ?
Orlando guy bought his right where he used to work !
ORLANDO, Fla. - A gunman opened fire Friday in the offices of an engineering firm where he was let go more than two years ago, authorities said, killing one person and injuring five others.
Jason Rodriguez, 40, surrendered about three hours later, after officers saw him through the window of his mother's home and asked him to come outside, Orlando Police Chief Val Demings said.
Asked by a reporter outside the police station why he did it, he replied: "Because they left me to rot."
Demings said Rodriguez brought a handgun to the firm in a downtown office tower where he once worked as an engineer, but investigators are not sure what his motive was.
"This is a tragedy, no doubt about it, especially on the heels of the tragedy in Fort Hood that is on our minds," Demings said. "I'm just glad we don't have any more fatalities or any more injuries than we currently have."
Charles W. Price, an attorney who represented Rodriguez in a bankruptcy case, declined to comment.
Camille Previlon told The Associated Press her uncle, engineer Guy Lungenbel, was shot in the back and was able to talk but had not said much about the shooting.
"He is stable," she said. "He's just hurting real bad in the back." |

They will find a way to accomplish their goals, and if a gun wasn't available I'm certain they would have found another means to their horrific ends. You can't stop crazy people from being crazy. All you can do is allow the non crazy people (read normal citizens) the means to protect themselves when these crazy people(read criminals, islamic jihadists, tyrants) show their true colors. |
