Consti here with two of the most stupid comments I have heard about the terrorist attack in Times Square yet. The attempts to spin this latest threat for political gain I find not only disgraceful, but down right ignorant. Dare I say deceitful?
Really? So Fort Hood was a success? Despite several red flags being raised about the shooter and the loss of 13 lives? How about the underwear bomber who made it onto a plane Christmas day? The only reason he was stopped was due to his explosive underwear malfunctioning and a citizen subduing him. A common occurrence for men on most intercontinental flights I understand. Much like the SUV in Times Square didn’t function properly. Our policy has been one of appeasement not tough on terrorists. If you need proof of that just look at the Obama tour of the Middle East and the speech he gave in Cairo.
The second most stupid statement came from Mayor Bloomberg when he stated: “somebody with a political agenda who doesn’t like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.” Do you think he meant to say Tea Party activist? Now of course it has been found out that the bomber was an American Pakistani and Bloomberg is worried about “reprisals” against the Muslim community in New York. Never mind that the bomb was parked outside of the Lion King Broadway production where children would be attending and set to go off at the start of the matinee. Let me repeat that for you so it can sink in. This attack was designed to KILL CHILDREN AND FAMILIES! Or the fact that the man now in custody has ties to the subway bomber from Colorado. Or that he spent 5 months in a Pakistani terrorist training camp prior to returning to the U.S. I’ve even heard some trying to make the excuse that the stress from his foreclosure might be the cause. Imagine the stress on him and his family because of those evil banks! A family that lives in Pakistan I will add.
No kids the only thing that has kept us safe has been dumb luck.
The SUV bomb didn’t go off because the bomber made two fatal mistakes. First he couldn’t set the timer on the bomb properly. We don’t use a 24 hour time period for our clocks here in the U.S. unlike Europe. As a result the bomb was set to go off 12 hours later. Second he bought the wrong type of fertilizer. There were 80 cameras in the vicinity of the SUV bomb. NOT ONE CAUGHT A GLIMPSE OF THE SUV BOMBER! Despite that fact the Police Chief of N.Y. says they NEED MORE! The only video of the vehicle was it turning a corner. Nothing that would or did raise suspicion.
“But Consti in both cases the authorities thwarted the plot!” No kids that is an incorrect answer. Mother government didn’t do squat. In both cases it was vigilant citizens who saved the day. While Obama is praising the response of the police, FBI, and his administration he should remember that the only thing to save his bacon was a citizen. You know that wacky, right-wing, tea party, terrorists that invaded town halls last summer. The only reason the SUV bomber didn’t make it out of the country is due to the Emirate airline flagging him as suspicious for buying a one way ticket for cash on his way to the airport. The authorities were tailing him, but until the airline made the call they had no idea where he was headed. They even lost him for 3 hours at the airport! The only reason the Christmas day bombing didn’t happen is because citizens tackled and restrained the bomber.
People ask me: “Consti how can you have such faith in the greedy America public that deserves what it gets?” The simple answer is that citizens have foiled terrorist attacks better than the Federal Government. Simple down to earth everyday citizens doing the right thing every day. And there are more of those than many would have you believe. So when your elected officials start talking about lone nuts and people who are angry at government just remember the lesson of a simple t-shirt vendor.
Ft Hood, the underwear bomber, the SUV bomber, the subway bomber, etc. Yeah Obama has made it SO much safer than the one Shoe Bomber Bush let slip through. While the administration concocts plots by militia members who talk out their posteriors the REAL threat to this country got his naturalized citizenship a year ago. And registered Democrat! Makes complaints about the law in Arizona seem trivial now doesn’t it? Now this is an evolving investigation I’ll grant you. However based on the preliminary information this is a complete failure of the system. But Janet Napolitano would have you believe otherwise.
If you believe that this administration has made this country safer then I have a bridge in Brooklyn I want to sell you.
Consti.

While 33 percent of voters think the United States has been effective in preventing terrorist attacks, more — 49 percent — think it’s been pure luck.
The poll was conducted about three weeks after a botched bombing in Times Square and five months after the attempted Christmas Day bombing of a U.S. airliner.
Less than half of voters think the government is doing all it can to stop another attack. Moreover, that’s down significantly since the early years of the Bush administration and the start of the war with Iraq.
It would appear by the poll results that I was right again.
Poli-Sci Porn. I like that. I may have to use that from time to time.
I’ll tell you what, you go back and look at all the venom your no name pal has spat at me, Laura, DFunzy, and then tell me I’m the only ugly one here. Call him out for his insults and personal attacks and then we’ll talk.
I have communist leanings. I stand up for fair pay, rules that look out for people that punch a time clock, and make sure corporations can’t gamble with their retirement plans. I’ve argued for equal protection under the law and the removal of corporate money from campaigns. And THIS makes me a communist? NO SIR. These are the values the people who broke up monopolies and allowed more people access to the market, to establish new businesses and services and free the public from price fixing. These are the values of the people that worked for the 40 hr work week, minimum wage, banning of child labor, paid sick days, paid vacation time, work place safety, and you believe these are communist ideas. These are the values of the party that made the enforcement of civil rights the law. Lyndon Johnson knew that pushing civil rights would draw an attempted filibuster from southern democrats and cost his party that region for a generation, but he did it anyway. These are my values and if you believe that are communist or Marxist the only child that needs to go back to school is you.
I invite you to argue that any of the measures I mentioned above are communist and not American values. I am sure everyone who reads this would like to know where you stand on those issues.
You are in no position to lecture me. Not when you partake in or condone the same obscenity you accuse me of. If the price of being the only one here who on a regular basis stands up for these values is to be compared to a mentally challenged child and a communist by you and that nameless venomous cur you call a friend I’ll wear it like a badge of honor.
