The Day the Media Decided Militant Jihadism Was Respectable
-
Here is a very strange thing. For years, western media outlets and
politicians have been recklessly indifferent to the fact that Hamas is not
a jihadist ...

Thanks (I guess) Emily, for drawing this to my attention. Goldie Taylor forces me to face and confront what subconsciously I have allowed to just irritate me. This shocks saddens me, unconsolably. For months I have been saying I have not been this distressed since Robert Kennedy was assassinated. Tonight, I can't find any more words to describe what I feel.
ReplyDeleteAmen Vig.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the video.
Sorry Emily,
ReplyDeleteI just noticed the attribution... thank you for the video, Emily.

God knows I don't love Obama. But if the Republicans hate him so much - this much - I'm going to adore him with all my heart. I am under a lifetime blood oath to vote early and often against all Republicans until the end of times. That means I'm voting for Obama in 2012. Enthusiastically. Any one they hate this much, I love and adore.
ReplyDeleteI've seen the posting for this video on FB but haven't watched it until now. Eloquently and factually stated and not only heartbreaking but enraging. When folks criticize me for being so angry, I'm going to refer them here. And I like your last comment, Vigilante.
ReplyDeleteVigil, do you hate Republicans more than you love America?
ReplyDeleteAhh - another fake blogger with a fake blog.
ReplyDeleteTrump is a crook and a shallow phony who has screwed a great many companies with his repeated bankruptcies. This loudmouthed bully showboat should just shut up and go away for good. The biggest joke of all is that so many Republicans view him as presidential material.
ReplyDeleteGracious and honest, Goldie Taylor. I've cried over the politics and the rants for almost a year. I care and accept responsibility for what is mine and where I can make some difference. I DO NOT 'hate' nor never have, Barack Obama. Nor do I regret the experience of supporting him and seeing him win. I simply understand he is not who I thought (or who he claimed) to be. And I'll find another candidate.
ReplyDeleteAnd
I'm deeply ashamed of that part of America who behaves this way. Who simply chooses to live in fear. And Trump... is very very ugly ... crippled inside.
@ Cooper: It is an easy question to answer because I am not too fond of contemporary America. So the answer is yes! I hate the GOP more than I love the USA
ReplyDeleteMs Barry, no one can beat Republicans like Obama. Support him with me, even if you have to hold your nose.
ReplyDeleteVig, in the end you're right: On the first Tuesday in November 2012, if it's a choice between BHO and any Repub, the obvious choice is BHO to keep the Repub out. Such fuckery as we've seen from the GOP should not be rewarded.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that ... when a politician deserves criticism, he should get criticism.
Obama is a scrappy leader!
