Here’s your Sharia Law, Koran BS, at work, Obama:
Vatican says stoning in Iran adultery case ‘brutal’
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/39015497/ns/world_news-mideastn_africa/.
The hatred in the Muslim Koran is directed not only at the Jew and the Infidel, but also at the Muslim people. Stoning, cutting off of hands, feet and limbs. The Koran is primitive and brutal, as the Pope points out. In a modern world, the tenets of the Koran are those of an ignorant people, a shallow people, out of touch with reality in the 21st century and deadly without mercy; no compassion and no tolerance.
Around the world, many are celebrating 9/11 with the burning of the Koran and it’s hatred and it’s violence indoctrination. Burn the Koran.
@Adrian
I don’t burn books, and I won’t start now.
I fact, I find the suggestion nauseating and repulsive.
I also find “celebrating 9-11″ the most disgusting thing I’ve heard in a long time.
In California, we will be voting for a new Governor to replace the Terminated, Arnold. And, recently on KNX radio station out of Los Angeles, I heard (and continue to hear) political advertising for former Governor, and current California Attorney General, Jerry “Moonbeam” Brown.
What’s nauseating about the commercials is their radical departure from the truth and attempt to highlight Brown’s “achievements”, which are lost on my ears.
1. The ads claim that Jerry Brown somehow saved California a certain expense due to his not moving into the, at the time, newly built Governor’s mansion. What a crock! Jerry Brown DID NOT save California taxpayers anything. The mansion was about to be completed, so it’s not as if he had spared us the expense. Instead, what he did do, is lay off perhaps a dozen workers at the governor’s mansion. A bit of savings? Or, added unemployment. The mansion was later sold, perhaps at a loss.
Besides the pro-rated cost to every Californian for the mansion was possibly not more than .25 cents per year for maybe 5 years. Arnold doesn’t live in a governor’s mansion, because there is none, either – so no big deal.
2. The ads claim that Jerry Brown saved the state bucks because he did not use the Governor’s jet airplane, as Arnold does daily. This is crap also. For in order to manage a state the length of California, a California governor needs to fly expeditiously from Sacramento to Los Angeles, where the governor also has an office, and back again. It is the height of ignorance and mismanagement of the state to think that the southern half of California does not benefit from the governor’s office in Los Angeles – and having the governor there alternatively.
3. And alas, Jerry Brown is running for governor of California for a THIRD time. He is running because the LAW forbidding a person from serving as governor more than twice didn’t pass until after Brown had served twice. If Jerry Brown is a considerate and modest person, why is he running again; for the spirit of the current law that forbids third terms was voted in by the people of the State of California. Although it is legal for him to run and serve again, Brown seems to be fighting the will of the people. And, if that is the kind of governor he would be; I say forget Brown.
Let’s elect a real working person with real executive experience, NOT Jerry Brown. Say no to the Democrat Obama-types who seem to think that you can manage government without some solid executive experience. Let’s vote for Meg Whitman. This is not a paid advertisement, it is an opinion:

@Patvann
Perhaps what I meant to say was that theirs would be an observance of 9/11. And, with due respect. I would not burn a book either. As a matter of fact I kept all my college texts from over 20 years ago.
But the people in the group I am referring to (an you can Google the subject) DO BURN BOOKS AND THEY WILL BE BURNING THE KORAN TO HELL.
Yes. I don’t get repulsed that easily. I used to be a wimp. No more.
The people in that group are fucking idiots. People who support them, are as well.
If you want to have a good look at what Islam is like for many Muslims, read “The Kite Runner”. It’s a good read written about Muslims by a Muslim, however, it hasn’t changed my mind about the religion. All the gore is there, viz., lopping off of hands and stoning. It’s about an Hazara, whose group in Afghanistan which the Taleban want to exterminate. Take a look here. It will help fix your opinion of Islam. http://www.hazara.net/taliban/genocide/genocide.html
How gallant of Obama to allow our troops to defend themselves, instead of insisting that they surrender and be beheaded. That Obama is finally getting it together.

AdrianS: Well said times two. I live in San Diego and I hope California is not crazy enough to elect this loser a second time.
Gibbs head-slaps DiNozzo for another silly remark.
I just returned from Yellowstone National Park. I had been to Volcano National Park earlier this year. I am appalled at the misinformation the National Park Service in cooperation with Jim Hanson’s group at NASA are spreading about the causes of anthropological global warming and the expected results. This is nothing less than indoctrination of our population, especially the children who go there to see the wonders of nature. These are government organizations. They should be discussing only proven theories, not gross speculations.
