Marooned In Marin: Double Standard: Obama Regime Won't Denounce "**** Christ" Display But Apologizes For Attacks On Islam
First amendment right applies to all except for our government and those with anti christian points of view? I thought you righties didn't like government intrusion? go figure.

I'm getting the picture now, it's ok to beat up a muslim, or burn their mosques, but if they demonstrate against christians? oh, we can't have that!!

It will a whole lot better than the one he inherited in 2008, that's for sure...

it was not really "spelling".......it was grammar. Possessive vs plural. Live and learn.

I did have Top Secret clearance, but it was many years ago. You are failing to see what went on if you don't know that the Libyans surely did send the warning about 3 days before. Oh well, you can't see anything bad about Obama, can you?

Even though roys implied that the President had him called in for questioning, that's NOT TRUE. His probation officer called him in for an interview.

From what I read, after the interview, he was actually provided a "secret" release so that the media could not follow him, and that he is now in hiding, as he did not return to his home where he was originally picked up.
I guess something like that is what Palin needed when the media was so hot after her. Huh?

Do you really think that a government that is off on another printing of money wildly to have something to spend that will drive up inflation beyond what most of us can even envision with that huge national debt is better than what he inherited? Oh well, you have been an Obama worshiper for a very long time.

Jeez, am I glad I don't point every grammar error like that one that I see. That would be all I got done.

It's a fine line to walk. It's not like these people who blow themselves up give a crap about being rational or recognizing the value of free speech. Does it justify denouncing the film? I don't know. I personally think anything Obama says isn't going to mean squat to the fundamentalists. But what do you think Obama should say? Would people rather he make inflammatory remarks which will get people going over there, and possibly risk more American lives? Or just sit there and twiddle his thumbs on the issue?

Hillary also had some negative words for this movie:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_o...ent_(2006_film)

Death of a President is a 2006 British high concept motion picture about the fictional assassination of George W. Bush, the 43rd U.S. President, on 19 October 2007 in Chicago, Illinois.

Hillary Clinton, then junior United States Senator from New York, told The Journal News of Rockland, Westchester, and Putnam counties at the annual New Castle Community Day in Chappaqua that, "I think it's despicable. I think it's absolutely outrageous. That anyone would even attempt to profit on such a horrible scenario makes me sick.

Was the above an inappropriate statement as well?
