They are counting the days."

Obama's national security giveaway

Homeland Security: Islam is a Religion of Peace and Tolerance~ Video

LogansWarning.com "Guys, this is one of the most disturbing videos that I have ever seen. If you do not have the time to watch the entire video, please watch the first 10 minutes, and you will see how Muslims have infiltrated important positions in our country.

Obama's "Unilateral Disarmament" is Neither

Reason.com "But the only thing worse than a world with nuclear weapons is a world without them. Why? Because they create a huge incentive for major powers not to attack each other.

Book Review: A God Who Hates, Wafa Sultan

Atlas Shrugs "The American saying ‘speak softly and carry a big stick,’ is, unfortunately, of no use when dealing with Muslims. It would be more appropriate to say (until we can change this way of thinking), ‘speak forcefully and carry a big stick’; otherwise you will be the weaker party and the loser. Democracy cannot spread in societies like these until the people who live in them have been reeducated, for they cannot function unless they are playing the role of the master or the slave.”
