To Screen? Or Not To Screen? Is That a Fair Question?

Calls for Full-Body Screening Devices Grow After Terror Attempt

Where are the Shakespeare's of life when we need them? Where are those capable of asking and answering the momentous questions of life. Should we be screening every single airline passenger on the face of the earth? In the off chance that we might (just might mind you) pick out a potential terrorist with our idiotic methodologies of scatter gun approach and denials of reality? While spending billions in the pursuit of multicultural fairness and equality of purpose for all? Just as long as we don't make anyone mad or hurt their feelings. We wouldn't want that now would we, but we are suppose be tolerant of the deaths of hundreds or thousands of our fellow Americans. Is that how it works?

I think not.

Since the revelations of the foiled Christmas Day terrorist attack aboard an American airliner inbound to Detroit, many Americans have awakened to the reality of their sheltered lives and the fact that the government (their government) that they saw as the source of all power and authority to make the world a fair place?.....just might not be able to protect them now or in the immediate future as it concerns the wanton and ongoing desires of murderous Islamic Jihadist globally. And apparently there is something more than unfair about that reality to the average American. Could it possibly be that they have been lied to?

Forget about the past eight years since the 9/11 attacks and the fact that America was not attacked again on Bush's watch. The attacks of that September day should have been a wake up call to all Americans and in all fairness it was. Right up to the point that the liberal democrats and their minions in the media, were allowed to politicize the subsequent war on terror and the pursuit of terrorists and then to use George Bush as their whipping boy for the past eight years.

But who do they blame now? I say it's Obama's ballgame now. And he is at bat and looking at a full count.

Meanwhile? We as Americans were being told by the leaders of the democrat party, that George Bush had taken his "eye off the ball" while in the pursuit of those responsible for 9/11. We were told that America had absolutely no business in Iraq. Question......who's eyes are on or off the ball right now? (as we speak) Who is watching out for our interests and safety as it concerns Islamic terrorism and those bent on doing us harm, both individually and as a nation? Is it our vaunted Department of Homeland Security? Once again, I don't think so. Personally? I don't think that they have a clue over at Homeland Security.
They are so consumed and absorbed in the political correctness of insuring that Muslims don't get offended or their feelings hurt? That a bus load of terrorist sporting bomb vests could waltz right by most of them and they would never know the difference.

And they would be the forst in front of the cameras telling us what a great job they were doing. (Kind of like Big Sis Napolitano did this week.)

What should have been the most dramatic act of terror (9/11) since the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor sixty years before, somehow got lost in the background noise of partisan politics and a liberal democrat desire to defeat George Bush and his policies at all costs. Even if that meant and means that this nation is served up, exposed and made willingly oblivious to the attacks that are now coming forth and in progress once again.

The democrats have literally won their war (the war on Bush) but they are just as willingly losing the war on Islamic terrorism globally. James Carville once notably stated "it's the economy stupid." Someone needs to do the same thing now. Except they need to shout at the democrats....."it's the economy and terrorism stupid!"

Most Americans conveniently forgot that it was the failures of the Clinton administration as it concerned it's dealings with terrorism globally, that led to the 9/11 attacks to begin with. And those who refused to forget about the realities and facts surrounding the numerous terrorist attacks that occurred against America under Clinton, were anesthetized by a media that was complicit in the cover up and failures of his administration. And it is Deja Vu all over again IMO zs it concerns Obama SSDD.

Big Sis Napolitano tried to soothe us all this week by assuring us that the "system had worked" as it concerned the latest terrorist attack on America. But the reality of her own idiocy quickly jumped up and bit her in the butt and she was forced to admit that nothing in place in our present security network had really worked at all. Or how else could this individual have boarded this plane and almost succeeded in killing hundreds of Americans in the air and on the ground.

America has spent billions since 9/11 on its pursuit of protecting the citizens of this country and yet the Obama administration has seemingly turned it's back on the realities of terrorism and literally opened the door and put out the welcome mat for Islamic terrorism globally. Everything that this president has done in the past year has sent a clear message to Islamic terrorists, that they have a free pass and are at liberty to do as they please. Because once again, the American government perceives them as no more dangerous than petty thieves. And besides, we have a global image to worry about.

Part of that socialist relativism and anti capitalism no doubt, but just as deadly to those of us who are being left bare and exposed by the politics of deceit and lies that this administration is floating as policy. And as it concerns the very real threats of Islamic terrorism that are facing this nation? Those threats are still here and they have not been appeased or bought off by the administration and endless speeches or talk of sanctions by Barack Obama.

So here we are once again it seems. The public debate on terrorism raging, while the realities remain what they have always been as it concerns terrorism and who is responsible for the majority of it globally. We as a nation can spend trillions on security, but if that money is spent in denial and that money is spent in attempts to dress up reality in a guise of false reality and facades? In the end the result remains the same. The terrorists will continue to attack us and soon they will begin to score successes because of our own idiocy and refusal to protect ourselves, for fear of offending someone. Political correctness is the fifth column in America today and has been for a generation.

As it concerns the Obama administration and their approach of diplomacy and denial and appeasement? If the difference between my living and dying rests on whether or not I piss someone off or hurt their feelings? Or my country does? I have absolutely no apologies on either level. It is absolute idiocy that we as a nation are not taking direct and effect action to stop those that we know to be the origin of Islamic Jihad and Islamic inspired hatred and terrorist murder attacks against this nation.

Should we be screening those entering our country as potential terrorists? I say hell no. Forget the entire concept of screening. There in lies the fatal flaw and the literal joke of this relativist bull crap that the socialists and Marxists of the world have been hustling for the past fifty years.


Hell no we shouldn't be screening people as if we were trying to sift pebbles from sand on a beach. We know who these people are, we know where they come from and we know what they look like. Therefore, put the sieves on the shelf and break out the shovels and rakes and front end loaders. We know who and where these people are. No mystery, no guess work. Deal with it and deal with them.

We don't need to be wasting time and billions screening millions of passengers in this country annually, when we already know who and what we should be actively looking at and seeking out as potential threats and danger to America.

And if that hurts the feelings of those in the Arab and Muslim world? Once again I have absolutely no apologies for them. Call me old fashion? But I have never felt a need to apologize to anyone for the right to protect myself from zealots, maniacs, or religiously inspired terrorist criminals......or anyone else out to do me or my country harm.

We as a nation need to get past this apologists guilt trip mentality and begin standing up for what is right. Truth hurts, but the truth will set you free. While lies and denials will enslave and ultimately lead you to death.

I for one am sick of it. But for the quick actions of a passenger on that plane, we as a nation would be watching the coverage of hundreds of funerals this week.

Enough is enough and we need to be sending that message to Washington now.

We need to stop tap-dancing and start treading where the grapes of wrath are stored.
