Daily Kos: The Terrorists Prefer That Weakling Bush

By Tim Graham | May 09, 2012 | 22:49

Tim Graham's picture

Over at Daily Kos, "Zenox"  wants the online world to know that President Obama is much, much scarier to Islamic terrorists than President Bush ever was. The worry is that al-Qaeda has "decided to make a showcase of a U.S. aid worker (Warren Weinstein) kidnapped in Pakistan in 2011" and this "hostage who happens to be a Jewish American (I am guessing from his name)" is a trap to sabotage Obama's re-election.

We're assured "The Taliban, al-Qaeda, Islamists do not want Barack Obama to get re-elected. Period. And frankly who could blame them? They had it pretty good during the Bush years." (Italics theirs.)

Hell, Bin Laden lived in an exclusive villa (his very own pussy heaven) with a harem and porn videos, galore. From the number of kids, you know the ol’ bushy face had been busy making whooopies, 24/7.  Don’t tell me that is not a good living for a cave dwelling terrorist, for goodness sake.  Where is he now?  He is in tuna heaven, courtesy of Obama and his seals. And this al-Quso character who had been tap dancing in and out of prisons during the Bush years is suddenly swatted like a fly on Obama’s sleeve? Come on! How much more can a poor Taliban, al-Qaeda, Islamist take?

Of course they want the Republicans back in power and they are going to do everything in their power to sabotage Barack Obama’s re-election bid, including this recent trap they have set up against him. Really, did we, even one minute, think that they would want Obama, their nemesis, to get re-elected?

So Obama is much more a terrorist than G.W. Bush.... hmmmm. very intersting. I guess the fact that Obama voted against almost anything that GWB signed for national security, makes GWB a pacifist and Obama a Hawk? Wow! How can history be re-written in only a few years?

I saw I believe it was on Hannity the response to Bush being introduced in front of the troops (thunderous shouts) and Obama in Afghanistan walking to speak to the troops (sound: crickets, troops don't budge) and embarrassed golf claps only from his Secretary of Defense.

(Just remembered it was Huckabee's weekend show when he was interviewing the Seals)

As CIC enters, it appears all of the Marines are standing at attention and none of them are applauding or yelling. Contrast that with the end of the speech.

On the other hand, the CNN announcer does mention "tepid response". So, "who knows" is fair description at this point.

But then you have a disgusting piece of slime who, in a not so subtle reference to Obama, says as a Marine there is only one person he would "leave behind"

If he's currently in the Corps, he should be kicked out. If he's already out, he has dishonored himself.

I don't care who the President is or how much one may disagree with his politics, that comment was beneath contempt. Every Marine, every person in or out of the military and every true American should find it contemptible.

When President Bush was in office he was lambasted for being a tough cowboy ready to gun down anyone that gave us any lip.
Now that Peewee Herman is present, Bush has to be made into a weakling.

Obama flys CAP's overseas!

Submitted by CobraMan on Thu, 05/10/2012 - 1:14pm.

So, Obama has been flying combat patrols in Afghanistan? He was part of the Seal Team that killed bin Laden? He was the Captain of the navy vessel that killed the Somalian pirates? He flew bombers in Libya? He's remotely piloted all those drone attacks in Pakistan and Yemen? He's been personally involved in every combat situation since he took office?

Oh, wait, he ordered others to do all those things too, just like Bush did. So tough.

There was more hatred heaped on Bush for 8 years than Barry Blunder will ever see.
