The Times Square Bomber: Where Have Our Patriots Gone?

I'm finding the words hard to come by. I can't even begin to describe it! How did we get here in such a short period of time? I thought the lead up to 9/11, then the actual attack of 9/11 and the continued activities of terrorist organizations around the world would only solidify this fact:

Not all Muslims are terrorists, but to me it seems 99.99% of terrorists are Muslim.

There are those in power and in the media who either hate our country and our form of government and want to "fundamentally transform" the United States of America or are just plain stupid. President Obama mentioned that "fundamental transformation" would be the result if he became president [said just before the election].

Now, just 8+ years from 9/11, those in power and in the media seem to wish that acts of terror were perpetrated by white conservative American citizens. Even better, wouldn't it be great if they were part of that tea party movement! Everything is upside down and backwards. It's maddening and I can't stand it any longer. Don't worry, I'm going to hang in there. But it is at an unbelievable level and to be honest, a level that is beginning to scare me.

There is too much to go into, but here are just a few things to chew on.

As I write this, just this morning it was announced they've made at least one arrest in the attempted car bombing in New York's Time Square. Officials arrested Faisal Shahzad, a naturalized US citizen of Pakistani birth. It is also now known he traveled to Pakistan and went through some level of terrorist training. There have been others taken into custody, but as of now this is what I know.

Let's go back to yesterday, before anyone had any idea who was behind the attempted bombing. NY Mayor Michael Bloomberg had this to say to Katie Couric when asked who he thought might be behind the attempted bombing:




Thank you mayor Bloomberg for giving Muslim extremists a pass and instead, your 25 cent guess, that it could be anybody, like... 1) the perp acted alone, 2) the person is "home grown", 3) someone who is mentally deranged and 4) someone with a political agenda like not liking the "health care bill" [even though it is a law now, he called it a bill. Maybe the Mayor needs to watch the old School House Rock video about how a bill becomes a law].

Can you believe that?! By saying the perp probably "acted alone" he's saying that the person isn't a Muslim extremist tied to any organized terror group and probably a political activist who doesn't like the current efforts of the President and congress, like, oh I don't know...maybe one of those racist tea party people?

Then today, after the suspect was arrested, MSNBC's Contessa Brewer said it all in regards to where the media stands. And yes this is where 99% of the media stands.




Yes Contessa too bad he wasn't one of those dangerous tea party "haters" with their lawn chairs and American flags. By the way, the suspect is Muslim and he's a registered Democrat in Connecticut. He's one of yours Contessa!

And finally, now that [one of] the "alleged" perp(s) is under arrest, Mayor Bloomberg has these words to the fine citizens of New York

New York will not tolerate any bias after the arrest of a U.S. citizen from Pakistan in the Times Square car bombing attempt [which] also applies to potential backlash against Muslim New Yorkers. There are a few bad apples among any groups.

'At away to support your citizenry Mr. Mayor.
