/No Mr. President, apparently we aren't the enemy because you will allow them on our soil. Give us their tired, their poor, their suicide bombers./
And Emma Lazarus rolls over in her grave...
/"We sometimes make mistakes. We have not been perfect."
This was just my favorite !!!!!!!
Why is he taking this weak stance on behalf of Americans???/
Yes, because to refuse to acknowledge mistakes, to just go on and blindly pretend that everything's perfect and okay, that's just an excellent example of maturity and intelligence, isn't it? America has made mistakes. We indeed have not been perfect. If you don't agree, you're in need of a serious reality check.
/Did I miss something, why are we cowtowing to Islam now. Sure isn't taking long to show his muslim sympathies./
*headdesk* How old are you, four? I wonder what you would say if Obama said this instead:
Obama: My fellow African-Americans, we have sometimes made mistakes. We have not been perfect. We have allowed centuries of slavery and discrimination and segregation to damage your lives and prevent you from living the American dream. And for that, we apologize.
many: OMG! He's kowtowing to the ebil negroes!
Obama: To the Japanese, we sometimes have made mistakes. We have not been perfect. We have falsely imprisoned you in interment camps without just cause or warrant and have falsely imprisoned other Asians in those camps for no reason other than they resembled you. And for that we apologize.
many: OMG! He's kowtowing to the dirty Japs!
Obama: To the Native Americans, the original inhabitants of this country, we have sometimes made mistakes. We have not been perfect. We have stolen your land, your children, and your heritage. We have inflicted disease, pain, slaughter, discrimination, and suffering upon you. And for that you have our sincerest apologies.
many: OMG! He's kowtowing to the dirty red Injuns! WAAAAH!
/As long as we are alive and not muslim, they will consider us their enemies./
Wow, I never knew that my Muslim friend from Bangladesh considered me to be her enemy. I should bring it up with her the next time we get together.
/Its in their book./
Have you EVER read the Koran or are you just pulling nonsense out of nowhere?
/That is also my position on the subject. No America is not Islam's enemy; Islam is America's enemy and as long as Obama does not see that we are in deep doo doo./
I knew that you had the mental capacity of a four-year-old.
/If America stills stands for anything good and righteous in this world,/
I'm convinced that this person has been living in the basement for eight years. Good and righteous? We've been made a global laughingstock by your precious Bush.
/then, yes, we are their enemy. Islam is a force of pure, satanic evil./
Yeah, never mind that they believe in the same God that you do, never mind that they also venerate Jesus, Mary, Abraham, and Moses. Nope, Islam sounds different and foreign and strange, so it's automatically satanic. *sigh*
/Yes muslim is the enemy they are of satan's devices:/
Oh, shut up. My Bangladeshi friend is one of the nicest people I've ever known. I'd sooner trust myself around her than around you any day.
