To A.D.M.

Thank you for the understandable question about our choice of video link; we’ve changed it to a friendly site.

When I posted the blog yesterday, I linked to the first site I found that had the video up, which happened to be that one. My immediate concern was to make sure readers could see the video for themselves. That urgency has passed, and there are better options available. Thanks for the alert!

Jonas Rand,
I think the most important thing about Christie’s statement, he admitted people were wrongfully detained after 9-11. That means the lawsuits will begin, and few heads will roll, all in the international spotlight. LOL! Some of these people better hope they are not tried in the international courts, because they may find leniency there (ICC), depending on who else they tried to bully in the past, and because we’re losing favor in the world, they will never be able to cover-up/hide from the accusations.

Nice job, Christie, for standing up to the crazies who zealously paint all Muslims with one brush. Although, you have destroyed any chance you had at becoming a Republican candidate for the presidency. But who cares about that since you say you’re not running? You did a very noble thing.

By the way, SPLC, why did you link to the The Blaze?

This sonofabitch probably likes shari’ah (how he thinks shari’ah works, anyway), because if he had his way, gays would probably be killed in public. He authorized warrantless wiretapping, too.

This is very interesting, I may add! Not sure if the constant pressures from the right is causing his recent health scares, but so far so good.

This is something I am interested in, please note, I’m not a fan of the conservative website judicial watch dot org. But, this is something I was wondering if it is true or not, a story, “Extremist Hispanic Group Releases Racist Death Threat Video Attacking Black Civil Rights Activist Ted Hayes,” 3-23-2011 at the judicial watch site. I’m wondering if this is true, why wasn’t the public at large notified about this in light of what happened in Califas, gangs targeted blacks. This video/pictures linked at this site allegedly targets white and black Americans. The video is shocking in that it has a noose, racial slurs…and was allegedly done because Hayes didn’t want illegal immigrants receiving taxpayer benefits – education, public benefits…

If those who are afraid of Sharia law would support strengthening the separation of church and state they would have nothing to worry about. This will never happen because they want to force their own religion on everyone else.

Amen. I’m not that crazy about Governor Christie, but because of his stance in this case, if the Jersey air ever gets to him, he deserves a beneficial helping of Snot Nose Chutney (q.v.)

I never thought I would say this, but good on Gov. Christie! I’m actuality quite impressed that ge hasn’t pandered to the anti-Muslim right-wing base.

That being said, he still has a long way to go before he earns my respect. His record on education is beyond atrocious.
