What Were We Just Saying?

By Baxter

So the folks posting over at Free Republic are pretty upset about President Obama's interview with the Saudi-financed network Al-Arabiya.

Never mind that both George W. Bush and Condoleezza Rice have appeared on the network before. Now that Obama's done it, it's anathema. And they don't like the President's appeal to the vast majority of Muslims who think flying airplanes into buildings is wrong.

"Islam only respects brute force against them," states one. Says another, "This is disturbing to put it simply. I mean Jesus he is 10x worse than carter [sic] with his naivety [sic]. I dont [sic] want to put the muslims [sic] at ease i [sic] want them to fear what will happen if one more major American [sic] gets attacked." He beamed back in a few minutes later, not to correct his spelling and punctuation, but to add the word "city" after "American."

Freeps, we cats are beginning to think that President Obama is way more than three steps ahead of you. We think he's driving bin Laden and al-Zawahiri crazy. And, um, why wouldn't you want that?
