Underserved Group: Jihadists

[level_head]

Two events occurred in recent days which are connected. Both involve the Ikhwan, the Muslim Brotherhood.

First, President Obama met recently with jihadists, members of the Muslim Brotherhood he has been so good to. Almost all of the terrorist operations around the world, from the Palestinians to al Qaeda to the Taleban, are Muslim Brotherhood

He's worse than President James Buchanan. At least Buchanan was only failing to secure or evacuate the US arsenals in the South -- he wasn't actually shipping arms to the rebels.

It is hard for most people to appreciate, or to believe, how very bad President Obama is. To me, though, his actions and motivations are completely consistent with his time as a US senator, a state senator, a radical revolutionary, a lawless Marxist college punk, a teenage cheerleader for Pakistani jihadists (and the target of his first overseas trip on his own), and a wayward youth seeking guidance from all the wrong places. He found exactly that, the wrong guidance, in fierce communist agitator Frank Marshall Davis arranged for him by his communist leaning grandfather

Maybe I'm just low on information: Has any other U.S. president shown signs of antipatriotism? During his own presidency, I mean?

Clinton sold high end ICBM and MIRV technology to the Chinese in exchange for campaign contributions.

Sorry about sourcing freerepublic, but they've got the straight dope and have linked their sources. Also, I recall the sequence of events as it hit the papers.

Happened.

Also,
Carter, hostage crisis/shah.

I don't know before that, but the soviet spies HAVE to have had cover from the top.

Woodrow Wilson was fiercely opposed to the US Constitution, and wrote at length of how wrong it was to constrain the actions of a vigorous president. He was also key to the creation of the first global intended replacement for the US, the League of Nations.

Not to mention, of course, his role in re-launching the then-long-dormant Ku Klux Klan.

Woodrow Wilson was anti-Constitution and Declaration - and bold enough to make that known even during his campaign speeches. Like this one.

He was also famously racist - to the point of including racist jokes in his speeches: "... when passing through the State [of Florida] in a train, asked some one to point out a “cracker” to him. The man asked replied, “Well, if you see something off in the woods that looks brown, like a stump, you will know it is either a stump or a cracker; if it moves, it is a stump.”

Perhaps that's why they call speeches like Wilson's "stumping" now.

It is depressing; especially when I know the democrats will not learn from this experience.

Or are even troubled by it.
