RE: President Obama: Do you really love America?

The country has war fatigue, so Obama's going to need all the help he can get from surrounding region. Standing up and saying, "Fuck Islam and fuck Muhammed" would leave us with only Israel as an ally in the Middle East and would also give Isis a nice, juicy recruiting tool. The key right now is to minimize Isis' power. which is dependent entirely upon their ability to recruit, and the American president, who is the embodiment of all that Isis and other Muslims detest, getting up and criticizing Islam would send young Muslims in droves to fight against the West. We'd practically be supplying them with an army.

Since when is diplomacy a bad thing? Just because this countries fucked up flavor of religion is not the same fucked up flavor some place else does not give us the right to bomb said country.
If bombing something equals love we have really lost our way, I just hope that kids parents don't love him too much in that case

Ah, the stupids are legion here.
I think my policy is now the polar opposite of Obama's i.e.
"I will stand with them [Christians] should the political winds shift in an ugly direction."
Christians are a hell of a lot smarter than atheists when it comes to the existential threat of Islam.

I don't even know how to assess such a meaningless remark.

I don't think he knows what "existential" means. He heard some Fox Fuck say it and just keeps repeating it.

I'm more worried about the existential threat of existentialists.
