you are the only one at the table who has the smarts. Right ON.



Yourself included? Funny.


Note to anyone - Please pity the poor, poor wittle Rappyboy. He's feeling put upon lately, what with all those facts disagreeing with what he believes.

Romney correctly, courageously commented on this administration's lack of a response to those who attacked sovereign US soil, and instead tried to ridicule and mock our 1st Amendment rights.

" To defend and uphold the US constitution " - that's the oath this President took, but apparently, he and those in the Obama admin think that 'hurting the religious feelings of Muslims ' takes precedent over our own rights.

Shot his mouth off ? Hell, Romney was sounding like a President SHOULD sound, in such times. Barry ? He figured it was bed time, and could have cared less about the fate of his ambassador.




So you think it's "presidential" to comment on critical events before the facts are in, or before you know what you're talking about?


Given your track record here, I hardly find that surprising.

Oh, you know Rappy - anything Mittens does will be seen as "Presidential" to him. He must toe the party line, there's nothing else in his life.

Klinkco,
I know what aircraft carrier it was on operation El Dorado. I was on it. The USS Coral Sea with Ronald Reagan as the president. Maybe you just didn't make the connection.

We have a B-1 wing close by in the desert. With tankers. 1 hour supersonic good bye Libya.

How many riots were sparked by the release of a MAJOR MOTION PICTURE, The Last Temptation of Christ ?

Zero.




Swing and a miss.

On October 22, 1988, a French Christian fundamentalist group launched Molotov cocktails inside the Parisian Saint Michel movie theater while it was showing the film. This attack injured thirteen people, four of whom were severely burned. The Saint Michel theater was heavily damaged, and reopened 3 years later after restoration. Following the attack, a representative of the film's distributor, United International Pictures, said, "The opponents of the film have largely won. They have massacred the film's success, and they have scared the public." Jack Lang, France's Minister of Culture, went to the St.-Michel theater after the fire, and said, "Freedom of speech is threatened, and we must not be intimidated by such acts." The Archbishop of Paris, Jean-Marie Cardinal Lustiger, said "One doesn't have the right to shock the sensibilities of millions of people for whom Jesus is more important than their father or mother."

While unfortunate, could this instance really be classified as a riot?

What would you call it if it were an angry mob of Occupy people doing it, throwing Molotov Cocktails into a crowded theater?


I'd say this was at least as much a "riot" as what you saw in Libya.
