…is it a sleeper cell?
Just yesterday I theorized the real reason Obama didn’t go is he just couldn’t put the words “Islamic” and “terrorism” together in one sentence even if, forgive the tired image, it hit him in the face. (The exception of course being when insisting that something is NOT Islam.) He just can’t handle it after nearly fifty years of virtually non-stop anti-imperialist programming. His mind would fly apart if he had to utter the words “radical Islamic terrorism,” which French PM Valls, and any honest person, was quite willing to do.
Now I admit that was just a supposition. Just because I’ve never heard him link Islam and terror doesn’t mean in his heart of hearts he doesn’t. Though not a genius, he does have an IQ in triple digits and sees what’s right in front of his nose, I assume. He just interprets it differently. But why?
Is someone whispering in his ear?
My money would be on (born in Iran) Valerie Jarrett.

“We’re sorry, the number you have reached is not in service at this time.”
I thought the Europeans were happy not to have him there?
“I thought the Europeans were happy not to have him there?”
So you think Il Dufe and his upper-echelon crew stayed home out of courtesy to the Europeans?
I just don’t understand people who don’t like Obama complaining that they don’t see enough of him.
One reason I don’t like him is because he doesn’t address militant Islam. Not showing up just confirms my opinion.
The Fort Hood shooting was called, “workplace violence”, and that was with full knowledge that Nidal Hassan said, “Allahu Akbar”.
Who made that argument? I believe the actual argument is that the White House sent no representation, including Eric Holder, who was in France at the time. So who is complaining that they don’t see enough of Obama?
Wow, even on a thread on a satirical idea you don’t get satire.
Or maybe you do think Obama is a member of a White House Islamist sleeper cell . . .
I got your comment, but you acted like someone made the argument beside yourself. You’ve done that quite a bit recently. There’s satire and then there is good satire. Yours is not good, because it is not based on reality.
You don’t also post here under the name “Bob-1,” by any chance, do you?
I think it has less to do with Obama’s earlier criticism of the cartoons in question or that he doesn’t want to admit it was Islamic terrorism than with him not being a diplomat, being totally unaware of how showing up at this protest could help him on this and other unrelated issues, and that he would rather watch football than do his job.
Obama is all talk. He likes to say he is a diplomat in order not to use military force but as we see here he also does not use diplomacy.
I think he just wanted to eat his waffle and watch the NFL playoffs.
In an interview with Stehpanopoulous, Obama said he was a Muslim. Steffy had to correct him,
I think that’s the truth – that Obama *is* a muslim. Nothing wrong with that per se…except the lying about it.
I’ve intermittently thought of Omarxi as a potential sleeper agent for a long time, but not as an agent of Islamic terrorists, but instead as a plant by Chinese intelligence. My theory is they identified and recruited him when he was still a law student at Columbia. After all, he and his inner circle have deliberately slowed or stifled a US economic recovery for years (Cloward-Piven Hypothesis). This is something that would most benefit the Chinese from a power competition point of view. Please remember that in the long run it’s the PRC that is the greatest threat to the USA, for the Chinese the Mideast is just a useful distraction to divert the USA as much as possible from Asia. This of course leads to another line of reasoning: have the Chinese been ever so quietly in contact with some of these jihadi groups? Yes, the Chinese are infidels, but since both groups hate us so very much it might produce some from of cooperation.
Of course, sitting here in Seoul I have a different view of things.
China has its own muslim terrorist problem. They handle it differently.
Which does not preclude the possibility of using other Islamists if it works for them. Not suggesting anything specific.
