    Three thousand Americans died on 9/11 because of what these guys did, and I have no sympathy for them. I don't know the specific details... I haven't read the report... I keep coming back to the basic, fundamental proposition: how nice do you want to be to the murderers of 3,000 Americans?

    Ricter, you'll be pleasantly surprised (I hope) to learn that I agree. Now when it comes to the science, that's an entirely different matter.

    Mitt Romney promised he'd cut unemployment to 6%. We're already there.
    Matthew Yglesias

    Back in the 2012 campaign, Mitt Romney ran hard against the weak Obama economy and promised much better things if he got to take charge in 2013. Specifically, he promised an unemployment rate below six percent by the end of his first term:

    I can't possibly predict precisely what the unemployment rate would be at the end of one year. I can tell you that over a period of four years, by virtue of the policies that we put in place, we get the unemployment rate down to 6 percent, or perhaps a little lower.​

    Well, we didn't get to see the Romney administration's results. But it was just today that theBureau of Labor Statistics reported unemployment had fallen all the way to 5.6 percent on the back of the best year for job growth since the 1990s.

    It is much easier to find 1001 examples of Muslims around the world celebrating the shootings in France.

    Let's take a look at the average Muslim cleric...

    Egyptian cleric sentenced to life in prison
    http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/01/10/egyptian-cleric-sentenced-to-life-in-prison/?intcmp=latestnews

    An Egyptian-born cleric who turned a London mosque into a training ground for extremist Islamists was sent to prison for life on Friday by a judge who cited his lack of remorse for "barbaric" acts that included aiding kidnappers who killed four tourists in Yemen in 1998 and sending two men to the United States to open a terrorist training camp in Oregon.

    "If released, you would do it again," U.S. District Judge Katherine Forrest told Mustafa Kamel Mustafa, a former engineer who was jailed by Great Britain on separate charges in 2004 and extradited to the United States in 2012.

    The white-haired Mustafa remained composed as the judge announced the sentence, saying it was significant "you have not expressed sympathy or remorse for the victims of the Yemeni kidnapping."

    She called his actions "barbaric, misguided and wrong" and read aloud the names of the victims, saying, "With the passage of time, their names have not been lost."

    The judge said a life sentence was necessary in part because Mustafa, 56, had "not had a change of heart" and would try to inspire others to commit violence if he were released.

    It is now several days after the shooting in France and only one elected leader in the Muslim world (Malaysia’s Prime Minister, Najib Razak) has condemned the killing.

    "Europe is finished...In Britain...there are actual cities, like Birmingham, that are totally Muslim, where non-Muslims just simply don't go in. And in parts of London there are actually Muslim religious police that actually beat and actually wound seriously anyone who doesn't dress according to religious Muslim attire."
    -- Steven Emerson of the Investigative Project on Terrorism on Fox News

    "I checked whether this was some kind of early April Fool spoof, and then I thought he was talking about Birmingham, Alabama, but then I realized he was just utterly and completely wrong."
    -- Birmingham's Member of Parliament Gisela Stuart

    "A complete idiot."
    -- British Prime Minister David Cameron

    "The city is now called Birming because Ham is not halal...The local death squads go by the name of Quran Quran...Birmingham has a chain of fast food restaurants called 'Burqa King'...Viewed from above, the M26 spells out 'Death to the West' in Arabic...Nottingham is 99% Jedi..."

  10. Either the "non-violent" Muslims (1) actually endorse the killings, or (b) they remain silent out of fear of reprisal. Regardless, something has to be done to eradicate this evil.
