Just Whose Feelings?

When Barack Obama, Janet Napolitano and all of the rest of the politically correct crowd refuse to call the War on Terror the War on Terror and the Islamic radicals the terrorists they are, just whose feelings are they trying to keep from hurting?

Could it be the people who killed 3000 American citizens on 9/11?

Or perhaps the ones who murdered the Dutch politician for saying something they considered derogatory about Islam.

Maybe the same bunch that put a murder warrant on Salman Rushdie's head for writing The Satanic Verses or the Danish cartoonist who drew pictures of Mohammed with a bomb in his turban.

Could it be the murdering S.O.B.s who bombed our Marine barracks in Lebanon or blew a hole in the side of the U.S.S. Cole?

Or could it be the terrorist who blew up a subway in London or a train in Spain?

Or maybe it's in memory of the Ayatollah Khomeini who used children to clear minefields?

Or could it be the ones who strap explosives to the backs of little kids and send them out to blow up human beings, maybe even the individual who told the little boy that when the bomb on his body went off it would explode in flowers, the same ones who send mentally retarded children out as suicide bombers?

Or maybe it's the sadistic fanatic that cuts off the heads of prisoners while they videotape it.

What do you call somebody like Bin Laden if not a terrorist and what do you call the blood bath we're involved in but the War on Terror?

Just what is al-Qaeda, if not a terrorist organization?

We are fighting in Iraq but we're not fighting Iraq so what are we doing there.

We're fighting in Afghanistan but we haven't declared war on that nation. Who and what are we fighting there?

Iran is developing a nuclear bomb and has declared that they will destroy Israel. What do you call people who threaten another nation with total extinction?

When death threats are made against American citizens because of the content of a television show they've produced, what do you call it?

And the thousands of militants around the world whose most fervent wish is to destroy the United States of America and all the people in it.

Just what name do you put on these people Mr. Obama?

What caused that hole in the ground in New York where two of the earth's most magnificent buildings once stood Ms. Napolitano?

You can call a rattler a green snake if you want to, but it's not going to change the fact that it is deadly and would think nothing of biting you and no matter how nice you are to it, it's not going to change the fact that you can never turn your back on it or drop your guard.

You can't coddle a rattlesnake Mr. President and you're going to learn that, I'm just afraid it's going to be the hard way.

What do you think?

Pray for our troops, and for our country.

God Bless America
