Default DOD official refuses to acknowledge the threat of radical Islam during hearing on
This exchange tells you all you need toknow about how the Left views the world.

In one of the most comical, and equally tragic, interchanges in recent congressional history, during a joint Senate/House Homeland Security hearing on “Homegrown Terrorism: The Threat to Military Communities Inside the United States,” Assistant Secretary of Defense for Homeland Defense and Americas’ Security Affairs Paul Stockton was asked by Rep. Dan Lungren (R-CA), former attorney general of the state of California, on the source of the threat to America and its troops. The exchange proceeded as follows:

REPRESENTATIVE DANIEL LUNGREN (R-CA): Secretary Stockton, are we at war with violent Islamist extremism?

MR. STOCKTON: No, sir. We are at war with al-Qaeda, its affiliates –

REP. LUNGREN: OK, I understand that. My question is, is violent Islamist extremism at war with us?

MR. STOCKTON: No, sir. We are being attacked by al-Qaeda and its allies.

REP. LUNGREN: Is al-Qaeda — can it be described as being an exponent of violent Islamist extremism?

MR. STOCKTON: They — al-Qaeda are murderers with an ideological agenda –

REP. LUNGREN: No, I — that’s not my question. That wasn’t my question. My question was, is al-Qaeda acting out violent Islamist extremism?

MR. STOCKTON: Al-Qaeda is a violent organization dedicated to overthrowing the values that we intend to advance –

REP. LUNGREN: So is it yes or no?

MR. STOCKTON: Can I hear the question again? I’ll make it as clear as I can. We are not at war with Islam. And it is not –

REP. LUNGREN: I didn’t ask that — I did not ask that, sir. I asked whether we’re at war with violent Islamist extremism. That’s my question.

MR. STOCKTON: No, we’re at war with al-Qaeda and its affiliates.

I agree with the Assistant Secretary. We are "at war" with a specific organization.

I don't go for this whole McCarthyism 2.0 thing...

I'm sick of the WOT..

They won when we shit up our own Constitution and created an army of federal cock grabbers.

If we're this easy to control, it will only be a matter of months till they have us bombing our own cities to save them from "terrorism"

But see, if American citizens were able to handle this themselves, there would be no islamic extremists in the US, boarding airplanes or anywhere near us. The government has failed to do the one fucking thing it was constitutionally ordered to do, protect American citizens.

Frankly, their purpose is to protect liberty.. That's the only reason we need them at all.

They'd rather fret over nonsense, however... and attack liberty in an effort to "save" it.

It's absurd.. If a nuke fell on DC tomorrrow, people wouldn't notice till their transfer paymnet failed to arrive.. That's how critical they are.

We are at War with Radical Islam, period. It has nothing to do with "Mcarthyism".

"the values that we intend to advance"

No one seemed to pick up on this little nugget. Where in the Constitution does it tell us to Advance Values abroad ?

Ron Paul knows that being a Globalist Power we step on a lot of toes. He wants to curb that. Our Founding Fathers backed by the Constitution warned us about Foreign intervention but that doesn't suit the agenda of the Corporate LapDog Republicans.

Answer...it doesn't. We have a Government that spends blood and treasure advancing and agenda of a plutocracy. Nice going America you are all officially "TOOLS".

No shit!
One must sacrifice freedom to win the war against those that hate us because of our freedom.

Oh absolutely......but his name has become a "verb" for any type of political judgement.

We are not.. There's over a billion and a half of them.

If we were "at war" you'd know it.
