Republican Congressman King: Terrorists Will "Dance In the Streets" With Obama Victory

WHAT REP. KING SAID WAS NOT BIGOTED OR RACIST IN ANY WAY. You foolish democrats always turn everything into race. King said that the terrorists would be happy if Obama was elected because Obama is for withdrawing the troops and surrendering. King also said that Obama's middle name is a common name in the Middle East and the Muslims over there would see some sort of a connection. There's nothing racist in that statement, King just stated how Muslims in the Middle East feel about names. King never actually said Obama'a middle name.

This election is going to be ridiculous because anytime someone criticizes Obama for any reason they will be called racists and bigots.

To: A reader
"Just tried to email Rep. King's office in Washington, the form wouldn't allow me to send an email because my zip code was not from Iowa. Is that legal to not allow me to email a US Rep?

I wonder if King realizes that the 100 years of quagmire Sen. John W. McCain promises is precisely what Al Qaeda wants."

Reid, Pelosi and all the dems do the same thing. They only want to hear from their constituents. You can, however, write a letter or, for the leadership positions, go the their official sites and post a message.

As to your post about McCain, you obviously have listened to his comments via the mainstream media. If you stopped for a minute and thought about it in a historical context, you wouldn't put your foot in your mouth that way. What do I mean?

Well, let's see, we have troops in Europe, right? Since D-Day we've had troops on the ground in Europe. Earlier than that we had troops in England prepping for the liberation of Europe. Is THAT a quagmire, skippy?

Iraq isn't even a quagmire and never was. But folks like you pronounced it a quagmire 5 days into the liberation effort when the troops out-ran their supply lines and had to wait for supplies to catch up. Hardly a quagmire but the leftist, anti-Americans who run the media had to misrepresent the facts to start building an anti-Bush, anti-war movement.

Oh, and to the moron who said, "War never brings piece." What the hell planet are you from? There is no peace without victory over one's enemies, and more often than not, that means there was a war to settle things. Think "Revolutionary War", "Civil War", "Spanish-American War", WWI, WWII, etc. Read a history book.

Kevin says "I will keep my vote for a worthy democrat."

Hey Kevin - guess you're not voting then.

Interesting that Hillary is fond of claiming to have been a key player in the formulation of Clinton Foreign Policy: 9/11 was a direct result of the Clinton Administration’s feckless responses to the numerous Al-Qaida provocations and terrorist assaults against our national interests; as well as, Clinton’s inexplicable temerity in refusing to take Osama bin Laden into captivity when offered several times by the Sudanese. Clinton then exercised little more than his jawbone as bin Laden trained literally thousands of terrorists in his Afghan camps. All of which, convinced bin Laden that he could strike our homeland with relative impunity. The potential for success in bin Laden’s planned assault on our homeland was significantly enhanced by the infamous Gorelick memo, (Jamie Gorelick being a Hillary protege'), which the Clinton Administration promulgated to prohibit any terrorist information exchange between our FBI and CIA intelligence operatives. Further, in the Dec. 4, 1998 Presidential Daily Intelligence Brief , Clinton was advised that Bin Laden was preparing to hijack US aircraft to employ in terrorist attacks against our homeland. He was apparently too consumed in his pursuit of Monica to take follow-up action. However, history will record the most heinous assault on America's national security interests by a U.S. president as Clinton's transfer of our most advanced missile guidance technology to the CHICOM for a few campaign shekels. A CHICOM financial arrangement which Hillary continued under Norman Hsu and her ChinaTown dishwasher scam. Does any rational person really want to return the Clinton cabal/scandals to the White House? Greg Neubeck

This is the reason why our country is the way it is. We americans should come together and bring in a new america, one that doesn't care about religion,race,gender or political stand. America is the land of the free! So even though we disagree with what this man has stated, we still need to embrace him and all who believe in him. Are you not tired of all the name calling? God takes care of those who believe in him and what he stands for. We as people are so fast to criticize someone for the things that they say, right or wrong, everyone has the right to say what it is that they have on their mind. We may not agree but isn't that what this country stands for, "Freedon of speech"? I believe that however the elections turn out, that is the way it is suppose to be. I wish for this country to come together and show the rest of the world that we are not weak in any way. I remember when 9-11 happened, America came together like i have never seen it come together before. And I was proud because we have shone that even in adversity we come together as one. God bless and have a good day.

To all those "creeped out" by the facts, do tell me something..what creeps you out more, is it what the Congressman said or what you viewed at these following links?

And by the way, this is not a "republican-democrat" thing,
Mr. George Bush is also clueless...

Some people are creeped out to hear the clear facts/truth spoken..it chills them to the bone, they simply can't handle the truth. Denial may "feel better" but it does not win your safety & security in the long run...it's a very dangerous game that some in our country want to play. We want the soldiers home too, but when you are at war, you have to fight, and support the fight in order to win. Denial=surrender.

What I find so chilling is not the odd, crazed congressman who I hope will be voted out the next possible time, but that so many seem to support the bigotry.

Rep. King is 100% correct. Too bad too many people are blind.

For Republican in Kansas:

Michelle Robinson Obama wrote a senior thesis for her BA in Sociology from Princeton U in 1985. I downloaded a copy from the web and read it through. The premise of the thesis is that there are two groups of people differentiated by skin color. Those two groups are (1) black, and (2) white. The thrust of the thesis deals with the manner in which blacks and whites interact, and how these interactions change over time. She states that she felt she did not belong at Princeton (probably correct) and felt like a visitor. She concludes that yes, there is some change in the mixing of the races over time, but implies that that is because whitey controls everything, and that if a black wants a job, then they have to cozy up to the man. The thesis is about Michelle's feelings, and reflects her mindset that everything -- everything -- is about race. Here is a woman who received a world-class education (who paid for it and how did she get in?) but four years later, is still whining about "still feel[ing] like a visitor on campus; as if i really don't belong" in the university community. Now she is making a six-figure income living in a $million-plus home (bought under questionable circumstances), and just now she is "proud to be an American." For Obama to choose a whiney racist for his wife says a lot about him. To imagine them (especially her) on the world stage is embarrassing. For her to have any influence on domestic policy could be racist retaliation against non-black people. By the way, there is no indication that the first draft of the thesis was made in crayola.

I don't see King's comments as racist. He is simply stating a reality from Islam's point of view.

Imagine that a white man named Ahmed James Smith were elected president of Iraq (his father was American and his mother Iraqi).I imagine that American's might view this as a great success in the effort to spread American-style democracy around the world.

Unfortunately we only have a choice between 3 democrats, Obama, McCain and Clinton. The true conservatives dropped out long ago.

Matters not which one is elected, we will pay a hefty price. We will lament daily and wish that the U.S.A would have paid alot more attention to whom we elected to hold public offices instead of just electing someone because they promise to give us something.

Very few of the elected officials could care one whit about the U.S.A. and the Constitution. They only care on what it is that they can get from being elected to office.

We will truely get what we deserve and non should complain about it.

Good luck all.

I am a Democratic resident of Iowa's Fifth Congressional District, and I want the world to know that Steve King does NOT represent me or many other citizens of this district. His hateful fearmongering is reprehensible. Barack Obama's name does not make him a radical Islamic terrorist and Steve "King"'s name does not make him a noble man. This is not the first time this man has embarrassed the Fifth District and the entire state of Iowa. We have a Republican plurality in this district, and unfortunately many of them seem to feel they need to vote for the party, regardless of the abominable record of Steve King.

Would a US presidential candidate named "Adolf" stood much of a chance of winning an election in the 40's?

Whether or not you agree or disagree with the article, the main reason why any rational, thinking person would avoid voting for either Clinton or Obama is because they're both socialists.

Why not vote for someone who believes in capitalism, a free market, the Constitution and the rule of law? Sadly, I'm not totally convinced that McCain is that person either.

But a vote for Hillary or a vote for Obama is a vote for al Qaeda, Hamas, and Hezbollah.

You might as well vote for Hugo Chavez or Raul Castro or Kim Jong Il.

Thank you, Rep. Steve King, you just reminded me why I should not vote for any republicans. I thought to make an exception for McCain, but hey, both are part of that party that he represents. I will keep my vote for a worthy democrat.

He represents the worst elements in both the Republican and Democrat
Parties!
Make no mistake Ethnic Bigots in both
Parties have pandered to peoples fears regarding Mr Obama's middle name!
Former Democrat Senator Bob Kerry comes to mind!
There is No place in politics for this
Garbage! Let's debate the issues and keep the bigotry out of race from both sides of the aisle!

HE'S RIGHT

Lie ...Cheat... And semantics...No worry as long as opening Pandora's box is blamed on someone else.

They are out of touch with ordinary people because they don't earn that honest buck. "I would never demean a political party... but."

Good old semantics... Playing around with the truth. Taking the bible and using it like a punchline to fit your own ends.That bothers me most of all, because their winning way is to do whatever is necessary. Regardless if it kills people in the process. They have such contempt for human life that they remind me of the aliens in "The arrival". But they are more interesting.

Have you seen the civilian casualty rate in Iraq lately? there will be terrorists coming out of Iraq for the next 200 years. You can already see republicans laying the foundation for a future of denial.

It is just funny how some of you ignorant people think. It is apparent that you all are just repeating what you've heard. To Seah- you've taken your comments straight out of the playbook-sounds like plagarism to me-those comments are copied and pasted. And to RTB:you stated that if Obama is elected, the country will fall into a state of weakness. HELLO!! Beavis. The country is ALREADY in a state of weakness. Look at the U.S. dollar, look at the borders,look at the FAKE war. Do you remember 911? And to think these things happened pre-Obama. Your precious Republicans were in office. Do you think before you speak?

On November 1, 2004, even Fox News reported that the terrorist strategy in defeating us is to “bleed America to bankruptcy” through occupation.

King should understand that occupation is essential to the success of Bin Ladens strategy, before condemning our troops to unsustainable occupation. Bleeding the Soviets to bankruptcy was the successful strategy that Ronald Reagan used in the Soviet / Afgan war. We taught this strategy to Bin Laden when he was a “freedom fighter” for our causes. Unfortunately, Bin Laden has not forgotten, and as a terrorist has used it against us. King’s fearmongering far outweighs any concern he has for our troops. When strategy fails as dismally as here, people expect it to be changed.

Obama, will withdraw our troops. Strategic strikes will replace occupation—defeating the primary strategy to bankrupt us. Our troops will no longer be obligated to be mere targets for Al Qaedea bullets and bombs in a political shooting gallery.

Al Qaedea’s success is premised on politicians like Mr. King refusing to admit to arrogant mistakes and real economic conditions at home. If only King were as dedicated to our troops and national prosperity, as he is to facilitating Bin Laden’s strategy of bankrupting us through occupation.
