    Here is a reader's comment from the Wall Street Journal on Obama's speech
    about Bin Laden. I thought it was worth passing along to you.

    Notice how narrowly Obama framed the conflict: only a war against al Qaeda,
    and nothing more. Not a mention of the Islamic ideology which motivated bin
    Laden and his millions of supporters throughout the Moslem world. Obama lied
    when he said that "Bin Laden was not a Muslim leader." Just recently, a
    reputable poll of attitudes in the Muslim world indicated that more than 130
    MILLION Moslems viewed Bin Laden favorably! Not a leader? Today's WSJ
    reports that the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood condemned our assassination of
    Bin Laden. This is the same Muslim Brotherhood which Obama has been
    supporting, and about which Obama and his henchman, Clapper, said is a
    largely secular organization, and which is about to exercise power in Egypt
    in order to promote its goals of a sharia state.

    Bin Laden always justified his violence by quoting from the sacred Islamic
    texts of the Koran and the sayings of Muhammad. That is why al Qaeda and
    numerous similar non-al Qaeda Moslem organizations have been so enormously
    popular throughout the Moslem world. Remember all the TV images of Moslems
    dancing when they heard about 9/11!? The ideology of world jihad against the
    non-Moslem world was not concocted by Bin Laden. It has been part and parcel
    of the sacred doctrines of Islam ever since the time of Muhammad nearly 1400
    years ago. And, it is not going away with the death of Bin Laden. Obama
    assures us that we are not and never will be at war with Islam. Well, HELLO!
    Islam, in the Koran, declared war on all non-Moslems. Allah, in the Koran,
    says that non-Moslems are subhuman enemies and that Muslims must make war
    against them. So, whether we like it or not, whether we want it or not, we
    are their enemies because their holy texts say that we are. When will Obama
    and the rest of our leaders start telling the truth about the enemy we are
    facing?

      Oly doesn't write. He just cross-posts wingnut drivel which we used to refute factually, but generally we can ignore.

      That's because Oly has a record number of posts with zero comments.

          I am glad to see that, Doug is not one to ignore me. I will get a Hub out in time.

          I have been looking for reading, GOOD Reading, and not much out there for us to discuss.

          Everything is Political BS right now.

          I see that a few of the runners in the up and coming 2012 Election had a debate yesterday and that turned into a Obama Bashing session.

          The Election in 2012 will turn out to be the biggest Three Ring Circus in History, so far.

          Well, that's all for now.

          OLY
