"Benjamin Franklin Must Be Screaming From His Grave"

"Our president has decided that America is a bad and misguided country who is not entitled to tell any other country what to do unless that country is Jewish. It sees our military, our consumption as a barrier to peace and harmony in the world. He engages enemies of freedom and supports an attempted dictator from Honduras. our president believes that prosecuting the people who are responsible for defending this great naton despite the pleading against such a move by seven
previous CIA directors who are both Democrat and Republican.

Benjamin Franklin and all the founding founders that I have studied would not only disagree with President Obama but also probably have him thrown out of the room for insulting their intelligence if he were to make a speech like he did at the United Nothing on 9/23/09.

Benjamin Franklin clearly wrote: "The very fame of our strength and readiness would be a means of discouraging our enemies; for 'tis a wise and true saying, that 'One Sword often keeps another in the scabbard.' The way to secure peace is to be prepared for war. They that are on their guard, and appear ready to recieve their adversaries, are in much less danger of being attacked than the supine, secure and negligent.

Franklin also stated: "Our security lies, I think, in our growing strength, both in numbers and wealth; that creates an increasing ability of assisting this nation in its wars, which will make us more respectable, our friendship more valued, and our enmity feared; thence it will soon be thought proper to treat us not with justice only, but with kindness, and thence we may expect in a few years a total change of measures with regard to us; unless, by neglect of military discipline, we should lose all martial spirit, and our Western people
become as tame as those in the Eastern dominions of Britain [India], when we may expect the same oppressions; for there is much truth in the Italian saying, 'Make yourselves sheep, and the wolves will eat you."

Above taken from the writings of Benjamin Franklin and quoted in the book - "The 5000 Year leap - Principles of Freedom 101," a book that every American who believes in the principles of the United States of America should read.

America Wake up! this president is not only a danger to this country but to the welfare and peace of the world."

The mighty Al-Sonsie!
Walid Shoebat is a con man you silly twits!

How exactly is he a con man? Provide something other than leftist Jew hatred please.
FROM HATE TO LOVE

Born in Bethlehem of Judea, Walid's grandfather was the Muslim Mukhtar (chieftain) of Beit Sahour-Bethlehem (The Shepherd's Fields) and a friend of Haj-Ameen Al-Husseni, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and notorious friend of Adolf Hitler.

Walid's great grandfather, Abdullah Ali Awad-Allah, was also a fighter and close associate of both Abdul Qader and Haj Amin Al-Husseini, who led the Palestinians against Israel. Walid lived through and witnessed Israel’s Six Day War while living in Jericho.

As a young man, he became a member of the Palestinian Liberation Organization, and participated in acts of terror and violence against Israel, and was later imprisoned in the Russian Compound, Jerusalem's central prison for incitement and violence against Israel.

After his release, he continued his life of violence and rioting in Bethlehem and the Temple Mount. After entering the U.S, he worked as a counselor for the Arab Student Organization at Loop College in Chicago and continued his anti-Israel activities.

In 1993, Walid studied the Tanach (Jewish Bible) in a challenge to convert his wife to Islam. Six months later, after intense study, Walid realized that everything he had been taught about Jews was a lie. Convinced he was on the side of evil, he became an advocate for his former enemy.

Driven by a deep passion to heal his own soul, and to bring the truth about the Jews and Israel to the world, Walid shed his former life and his work as a software engineer and set out to tirelessly bring the cause of Israel to tens of thousands of people throughout the world: churches and synagogues, civic groups, government leaders and media.

Benjamin Franklin was a Patriot. He loved America.

I am sorry I cannot say the same for Obama.

I do NOT understand how any of you can quote Franklin to bust on a Democrat when we just had a leader whose ONLY claim to fame was:

"I kept you safe! I kept you safe!" as our entire nation, social, economic, energy, etc, went into a ditch.

They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

Bush was the anti Franklin.

Our current one's mantra appears to be "could have been worse, could have been worse".

I think that you are smarter, and more aware of what went on with the country over the last 20 years to use that as an argument.

I doubt it. I do not see things the way most of you self identified righties do even though I think I am, clearly, hard core right wing.

Yeah, yeah, I know. Then, I can have my head stuck my ass just like you Bush Denial Syndrome folks!

Bush emphasized "Safety! Safety! Safety!" and threatened we were ALL gonna die of a nuclear bomb if we didn't invade Iraq and take over Afghanistan so that no more box cutter wielding maniacs could hurt us.

And he transformed our nation and boy did he! He made Iraq safe for Iran AND made them rich enough to build a second nuke factory while our economy fell off a cliff!

And he made us SAFE!

And Ben Franklin said:

Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.

"Take off your shoes, sir, please. We need to see if you're hiding your common sense in there before we allow you to board."

Riding in someone else's airplane automatically subjects you to their rules of safety, just as stepping into someone else's house subjects you to their rules if you want to smoke. Their plane, their house. It's not giving up liberty, because no one's making you ride a plane.

And here I thought TSA was the feds. My bad.

So, then I should be able to start up "Toxick Airlines" where I don't require a security check to get on board. "You got the cash, I'll get you where you're going - no questions asked."

The gub'mint wouldn't have anything to say about that?

It's my airline, so I should be able to do this, yes?
