News, not fake this time

Sometimes events make it impossible to write a lighthearted parody. Today is one of those days.

On the anniversary of 9/11 protesters scaled the walls of our embassy in Cairo, stormed our mission in Libya and killed US Ambassador J. Christopher Stevens. The alleged reason for these attacks? A Dutch film that is online that is apparently offensive to Islam. Let me say that again: The US Ambassador was killed because a DUTCH filmmaker made a movie that some people took offense to. That makes as much sense as someone firebombing a Wal-Mart because McDonald's gave him a cold cup of coffee.

So what has our government done to protect us? Well first off the US Embassy in Cairo Released this statement condemning the FILMMAKER and his movie:

The U.S. Embassy said in a statement that it “condemns the continuing efforts by misguided individuals to hurt the religious feelings of Muslims — as we condemn efforts to offend believers of all religions.”



“Respect for religious beliefs is a cornerstone of American democracy,” the statement read. “We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others.”

President Obama in hearkening back to Carter's response to Afghanistan in 1979 (the last time an Ambassador was killed)  "Strongly condemned the attack"


But we should not be concerned, after all in his acceptance speech Obama stated "The historic change sweeping across the Arab World must be defined not by the iron fist of a dictator or the hate of extremists, but by the hopes and aspirations of ordinary people who are reaching for the same rights that we celebrate today."  So it was just "free speech" being exercised yesterday, nothing to worry about at all. Those were just regular folks blowing off a little steam and they got out of hand.

I am at a loss for words at how angry I am right now. The fact that not only were we attacked once again on 9/11, but by the fact that our President is barely acknowledging that it happened. There was no prime-Time address, no break from campaigning to return to the White House, heck, he wasn't even reading with school children yesterday. The media was complicit in there were no "Breaking News" alerts, in fact this was not even the top story on many broadcasts.

Now, as I am writing this Mitt Romney, the CANDIDATE for President, is going to address the nation on the murder of the Ambassador and the attacks on our soil. Just think about that, which of the 2 men seems more like a leader RIGHT NOW? (immediately after it was announced that Romney would be speaking, Obama announced a speech for 1 hour later)

Obama was right, we face a clear choice this fall. And he is making it clearer every day.

Please, dear reader; I am begging you. Do everything you can to make certain that this November Obama is voted out of office. We cannot afford another 4 years of mismanaged foreign policy, domestic policy and socialist economic policy. Please vote.
