Four Blind Fools

Most of the Republican aspirants made fools of themselves in ABC's "debate" Saturday night. I will quote them out of context. To see the quotes in context, click this link to the transcript.


I'll pick on Governor Romney first.

But we're going to have to move our strategy from simply being a respond to military threat with military action to an effort that says we're going to use our military and nonmilitary resources -- nonmilitary resources -- combined with other nations who are our friends to help move the world of Islam toward modernity and moderation.

The Governor exposes abject ignorance of Islam. As defined by its canon of scripture & tradition, Islam is intolerant, militant, violent & imperialistic. And irreformable.

The new mission for NATO and for other nations is to help provide the rule of law, education that's not through madrassas, agricultural and economic policies that can be instilled in various Islamic countries, so the Muslims are able to reject the extreme and the terrorists.

It is not possible to reject terrorism without rejecting Islam; terrorism is an intrinsic sacrament of the murder cult, sanctified by 3:151, commanded by 8:12 and exemplified in 33:26-27 & 59:2 and confirmed by Bukhari 4.52.220 and 1.7.331. Likewise, genocide is commanded in 8:67 & 47:4 and confirmed by Abu Dawud 38.4390.

We do need -- I agree with what the mayor said -- we need to add to our military by at least 100,000 troops. But the answer is to move now to a second phase, a phase of helping Muslims become so strong they can reject the extreme.

Strengthen our enemy and then what? They'll attack us with renewed vigor and ability, that's what!! They can not reject the command to fight Jews & Christians until we are subdued and pay extortion. That command is clearly stated in 9:29 and confirmed by Bukhari 1.8.387 and 4.53.386. Muslims can not reject Islam's damnable doctrines without rejecting Islam!

I'd read what they write to one another. And that's why when someone like Sayyid Qutb lays out the philosophy of radical jihadism and says, "We want to kill..."

Qutb did not invent Islamic doctrine which mandates Jihad, terror & genocide, Moe did.[Citations in previous comment.] Romney does not know this fatal fact because he has not read Islam's canon of scripture & tradition. Neither has he read Islamic law, which far predates Qutb, and declares that "The Caliph makes war upon Jews and Christians." [Reliance of the Traveler: Book O, Ch. 9, Section 8.]

The reason -- why did they kill Madam Bhutto? It has nothing to do with us. This has to do with a battle that is going on within the world of Islam, of radical, violent jihadists trying to bring down all moderate Islamic people and nations and replace them with a religious caliphate.

So close, yet so far from comprehending the truth! He does not understand that Allah commands Muslims to conquer the entire world.

Next, I'll take on Mayor Giuliani.

It seems to me, if you don't face this squarely -- there's an Islamic, terrorism threat against us. It's an existential threat. It has nothing to do with our foreign policy. It has to do with their ideas, their theories, the things that they have done and the way they've perverted their religion into a hatred of us.

But they have not perverted their religion into hatred! Islam is perpetual war, not a religion! Like Gov. Romney, the Mayor is ignorant of Islam. He does not know that Moe, speaking for Allah, commanded Muslims to make war on Pagans until only Allah is worshiped and to make war on Jews & Christians until we are subdued and pay extortion.

And what's at stake are the things that are best about us: our freedom of religion, our freedom for women, our right to vote, our free economic system. Our foreign policy is irrelevant -- totally irrelevant. If you read what they write, if you bother to listen to what they say, this comes out of their own perverted thinking.

No, Mr. Mayor, it comes directly from Islam's canon of scripture & tradition: Qur'an & Hadith, which I have cited in a previous comment. Those ayat & ahadith are the basis of Islamic law, also previously cited. "The Caliph makes war..." these politicians don't get it.

It is important to make this point. Just the opposite, Ron. I have great respect for the Islamic religion. I have great respect for the Arab world, for the Middle East.

I think we should be closer to them. I think we should trade more with them. I think we should have cultural exchanges with them.

The overwhelming majority of the Islamic world...

... and on the evening of September 11, 2001, the day my city was attacked, I got on television, and I said to the people of my city, "We're not going to engage in group blame. This is a small group of people. This does not typify a great religion and a great people."

The mayor repeated one lie twice "I think". A thinking man would not make the statements to which I added bold face.

Next, Congressman Paul.

Let me try to explain so you can understand this better.

Try to visualize how we would react if they did that to us, if a country, say China, came that great distance across the ocean, and they say, "We want you to live like us. We want you to have our economic system. We want bases on your land. We want to protect our oil."

Even if we do that with good intentions -- even if the Chinese did that with good intentions, we would all be together and we'd be furious.

Blame America first, unaware of Allah's demonic commands; unaware of Moe's 86 conquests, unaware of the conquest of Yemen, Syria, North Africa, Greece, Spain, Turkey, Albania & India, all of which preceded the discovery & pumping of oil in the region.

There's always a radical element in almost all religions. They have to have an incentive. We give them that incentive.

The question that you don't -- aren't willing to ask is, why is it that they attack America? I mean, they don't attack the Canadians. They don't attack the Swiss. If it were merely because they wanted to go into Europe, why do they...

Blame America first. Radical element? Show me where in the Gospels & Book of Acts Jesus commands his disciples to make war. Show me where he leads them into battle. Show me where he commands them to engage in genocide and terrify their victims. Religion is defined by the rule--divine command--not the violation thereof.

You paint all Islamics... ... the same way, and this is a dangerous thing... What you're doing is damaging our relationship by destroying our relationship with all Muslims. That's what you're doing.

Our relationship to Muslims is prey: predator. Remember, Moe declared open season. You don't remember, Congressman? No, because, as a damned fool, you spout off without knowledge; you never read Islam's scripture & tradition. You are ignorant of these fatal facts: Allah's command & Moe's confirmation.

• 9:29 Fight against those who (1) believe not in Allâh, (2) nor in the Last Day, (3) nor forbid that which has been forbidden by Allâh and His Messenger (4) and those who acknowledge not the religion of truth (i.e. Islâm) among the people of the Scripture (Jews and Christians), until they pay the Jizyah with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued.
• "I have been ordered to fight the people till they say: 'None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.' And if they say so, pray like our prayers, face our Qibla and slaughter as we slaughter, then their blood and property will be sacred to us and we will not interfere with them except legally and their reckoning will be with Allah." Bukhari 1.8.387
• Our Prophet, the Messenger of our Lord, has ordered us to fight you till you worship Allah Alone or give Jizya (i.e. tribute); and our Prophet has informed us that our Lord says:-- "Whoever amongst us is killed (i.e. martyred), shall go to Paradise to lead such a luxurious life as he has never seen, and whoever amongst us remain alive, shall become your master."... Bukhari 4.53.386

Next, Gov Huckabee.:

The fact is when there is a serious threat to this country, it is not a threat because we happen to be peace-loving people. It's a threat because in the heart of the radical Islamic faith -- not all Islam, and that's what's very important.

Radical Islamic faith? Not all Islam? Another damned fool pontificating from the pedestal of ignorance. Jihad, genocide & terror are standard Islam, recited and exemplified by Moe; they are not exceptional.

This isn't an Islamic problem. This is a jihadist problem. This is an Islamo-fascism problem.

And if you read the writings of those who most influenced -- and Governor Romney mentioned Sayyid Qutb, executed in Egypt in 1966. He is one of the major philosophers behind this.

And the fact is, there is nothing about our attacking them that prompts this. They are prompted by the fact they believe that they must establish a worldwide caliphate that has nothing to do with us other than we live and breathe and their intention is to destroy us.

Why won't you read the writings of the founder of Islam, Governor? Because you haven't read the Qur'an & Hadith, you are abysmally ignorant of Islam and mislead those you seek to govern.

These are the blind leading the blind; no more worthy or well qualified to lead this nation than the Democrat aspirants. I will cast my vote for Fred Thompson. If one of the others is nominated, I will do another write in.

Mike Huckabee:

On The Constitution: Mike Huckabee fully believes this approach to be wholly consistent with the intentions of our Founding Fathers, who intentionally, and with great wisdom, put the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause in the same primary amendment to the Constitution. Mike recognizes that through a series of opinions dating back decades, the Supreme Court has now pushed the envelope on the original concept of eminent domain to an untenable point. He points out the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution says in part, “private properties shall not be taken for public use, without just compensation.” (I’ll buy all that…sounds good) + +

On The Right To Life: The Unborn Child Amendment, Amendment 65 to the Arkansas Constitution, states it is the policy of the state to protect human life from the time of conception until such time as the natural cessation of life occurs through natural processes. (AMEN Brother!!) + + +

On Education: To Mike Huckabee, education is a function and responsibility of state government, not the federal government. Mike Huckabee believes the federal No Child Left Behind Act is often misunderstood and unfairly maligned as a total federal intrusion. (believes in States Rights) + + +

On The Family: By Mike Huckabee’s way of thinking, the tax code as it exists in America today imposes penalties on a husband and wife simply for the fact they are married. Despite reforms in 2003 easing the marriage penalty for families in the 15 per cent bracket, it still exists. “If nothing else, a flat tax would allow parents to spend more time with their kids and less time huddled around the kitchen table, worrying about filling out their tax forms.” (another AMEN, Brother!) + + +

On Values: “While I respect people having a right to be different and even engage privately in conduct I find unbecoming or even abnormal, I oppose sexual orientation being afforded status as a protected class in the same manner as race, religion, or creed.” “The difficulty lies in defining what constitutes a crime of hate versus a crime inflicting harm upon another. One should not be punished for his or her thoughts, but rather for his or her actions against another.” (and the GOP “ignores this guy”?) + + +

On Judges: “I recognize the judicial branch is one of three equal branches of government. In recent times it appears some believe the Court is to hold a superior place above that of the executive or legislative branches. This was clearly not the intent of the Founding Fathers. Those appointed to judicial positions must respect the executive and legislative branches and ensure the courts interpret the law as passed by the elected legislature and signed by the chief executive and refrain from creating law from the bench. Judges interpret the law, not make it. As such, judges must not be activists using their positions to surreptitiously make legislative decisions. Courts must decide the cases before them using the Constitution, legislative Acts, and precedent. As President, I will appoint judges who subscribe to this philosophy. I will not use a litmus test on any single issue, but rather evaluate candidates holistically.” (PREACH IT!!) + + +

On The Economy/Fiscal Discipline: My philosophy on federal budget policy is actually quite simple and begins with the premise that Americans are not under taxed. I believe maintaining a balanced federal budget is a worthwhile strategic, long-term goal.” “As your President, I commit to protecting your wallets from wasteful spending and protecting your paychecks from greedy liberal tax-hikers, just as I did for the citizens of Arkansas. To achieve the long-term goal of achieving and maintaining a balanced budget, I will promote pro-growth tax policies, perhaps even the idea of true flat tax.” He further says, “As President, I will direct all of our fiscal policy efforts to controlling runaway congressional spending. Immediately upon my election, I will take stock of our fiscal situation, develop and implement annual target levels for the deficit as a percentage of GDP, and then manage our national finances to meet those goals.” (YOYOYO!!!) + + +

On Foreign Policy: “Certainly humanitarian efforts assist in not only being a good neighbor, but being responsible to human need in time of a crisis. However, the American taxpayers must not be considered the first line of charity to help in any or all aid programs, particularly involving those governments who declare open hostility toward the United States of America.” “The United States pays a disproportionate share of the cost of the United Nations. I believe we must receive, at the very least, a proportionate share of respect for our participation in the organization as well as our position in the world. If the United Nations refuses to honor its obligation to the United States, the United States should revisit its obligations to the United Nations. Unfortunately, the UN has become a bastion of anti-Americanism. For a variety of reasons, many nations around the world resent the fact the United States has become the only super-power in the world. The UN, therefore, regrettably has become a point of congregation for these countries.” (JUST SO!!) + + +
