Alan Colmes would argue if a Republican said the sky was blue. And he’d throw out as many insulting anti-American slurs his pea brain could muster in the process.

Unfortunately that is his job. I don’t think he believes all he spouts. He is Fox’s token lib.

Don’t think for a second that Alan Colmes doesn’t believe every word he says because he does. He’s a typical liberal. Not only does he believe it, he lives it. Crowley may be his sister-in-law but there is no doubt at all that he hates every breath she takes. He spews what he does because he believes it and he hates everything this country stands for. But because he believes it he will never recognize it hate. Anything a liberal believes to be true is true and therefore can never be considered hate. It’s how they think.

When the beautiful Monica stated that of 126 terrorists on the most wanted list, 100% of them are Muslim, he looked like a fool.

And where are the law abiding muslims regarding this issue?
They are religiously going to the mosque and listening to the imams preach anti western rants, world islamic domination and eliminate the Jews.
But they’re not the problem also?

Things are just getting really sad, we won our independence against England because England had too much Pride in it’s military ability and marched into battle. The Patriots of the United States Understood they could not win fighting head to head, so they began to battle in a guerilla warfare way. They adapted to the situation and they won. Since then the United States has fought in wars, and even was the country who dropped two Nukes on Japan to end World War 2.
After World War two, we truly defined ourselves as a super power in this world. So now all of a sudden we have to play by the rules. So we enter the Vietnam War and we play by the rules, and the outcome not great, we enter into the 2nd War in Iraq and outcome isn’t great and now with Afghanistan the same thing.
The problem is we are doing what the English made the mistake doing with us, in the Revolutionary War and we are starting to go War with rules. We have to do this or that. Yet we are not successful in these Wars and the men and women fighting them put their lives on the line, to fight by the rules, when the enemy doesn’t.
I am tired of Political Correctness, I am tired of being a nation that fights by the rules, prisoners of War should be dealt with by the military and not given the same rights as Americans. If we know we our enemy looks like why is racial profiling a bad thing. If I know a big White man who was 6 foot 6 was coming to hurt my family I would be sure that I was on the look out for white man who was 6 foot 6 and I don’t care if that is profiling or not.
Political correctness is ruining this country and if we keep playing by the rules when our enemies don’t we are doomed to follow what happened to the English when the United States Defeated them in the Revolutionary War.
It is sad that the only group of people in this country today people can persecute with no problem and get away with it is Christians. Yet the pilgrims came over here in the first place to find freedom of religion to Celebrate Jesus Christ away from the Church of England.
We just need to make a decision on what is important, we really do. - Anonymous

1st of all why isn’t he naming all those other non-muslim terrorists? Exactly who are they?
2nd Monica is 100% right and Bill is 100% wrong jihad is HERE in America NOW. What in the heck does he think the Ground Zero mosque is about? A judge ruling for sharia in NJ? I could go on and on…. Bill and every American needs to follow Atlas Shrugs daily. It’s all there in plain English.

If people would focus on terror instead of attaching the religion to it…it might be a little easier to “fight” this “War on Terror.”
1.) Just because he’s not very articulate doesn’t mean he’s not right about there being terrorists who aren’t Muslim. There are plenty of non-Muslim terrorists and fairly recently too. The guy who crashed into the IRS building in Texas wasn’t Muslim. Feel free to look back some more in history to folks such as OKC bomber, the unibomber, and there are surely bound to be others. Terrorism existed long before Muslims and despite Islam’s existence in the world and will continue to exist even if there was no Islam anywhere in the world ever again.
2.) The “Ground Zero mosque” is neither at Ground Zero OR a mosque, so calling it that is just a disingenuous way to boil peoples’ blood. As for the ruling in NJ…the ruling was overturned by people who know that Sharia Law conflicts with the Constitution therefore cannot be used in applying legal judgement.

3.) I at least agree with you that Alan is rather “meh,” if you will.

Do your homework and wake up.
- Tyler
If you’ll pay attention to the argument, I’m not arguing that most of the terrorist attacks and even the terrorist wannabes are not Muslim or that there isn’t an agenda by Muslim groups to destroy our country.
I am simply stating that if you are going to continue this idiotic nation-building crap as opposed to actually fighting the enemy, then you might as well change the name of this “war” to the “War on Islamic Terrorists” or stop referring to the terrorists as Muslim or Islamic at all when you talk about them. Semantics are important and it’s really nothing more than that which gets people fired up about it.
I don’t care either way because I’m NOT NEAR as afraid of Muslim radicals or ANY OTHER terrorists who are trying to kill me as I am of my own government which is constantly trying to take away more and more of my individual freedoms and turn my beloved America into a 3rd world despotic state.

I think the only thing which honestly gets the left in knots about this is the specific targeting of “Muslims” as part of the problem. Considering that most Muslims are not terrorists or even think about terrorizing those who aren’t one of them, I agree on that part.
Some would say “Well…you know what they mean.” That’s something my dad would say and NO…you’re WRONG. SEMANTICS MATTER.
Just some food for thought.
- Rich
The problem is that it seems an unusually large portion of this one specific group of people tend to be terrorists more than any other group. We can’t simply ignore this as if it isn’t so.
Are the majority of Muslims terrorists? No. Do Muslims make up the largest percentage of the world’s terrorists? Absolutely.
- Tyler
Again…semantics are important. I believe they’re more important just for the sake of shutting up those who are up-in-arms about you referring to the terrorists as Muslim than anything else.

UK: Muslim group launches “Christmas is evil” poster campaign
image :: http://i52.tinypic.com/dy5ets.jpg
Fanatics from a banned Islamic hate group have launched a nationwide poster campaign denouncing Christmas as evil.
Organisers plan to put up thousands of placards around the UK claiming the season of goodwill is responsible for rape, teenage pregnancies, abortion, promiscuity, crime and paedophilia.
They hope the campaign will help ‘destroy Christmas’ in this country and lead to Britons converting to Islam instead….
The placards, which have already appeared in parts of London, feature an apparently festive scene with an image of the Star of Bethlehem over a Christmas tree.
But under a banner announcing ‘the evils of Christmas’ it features a message mocking the song the 12 Days of Christmas.
It reads: ‘On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me an STD (sexually transmitted disease).
‘On the second day debt, on the third rape, the fourth teenage pregnancies and then there was abortion.’
According to the posters, Christmas is also to responsible for paganism, domestic violence, homelessness, vandalism, alcohol and drugs.
Another offence of Christmas, it proclaims, is ‘claiming God has a son’.
The bottom of the poster declares: ‘In Islam we are protected from all of these evils. We have marriage, family, honour, dignity, security, rights for man, woman and child.’…

To all the Islam apologists who hang out in this forum … how many of those other terrorists are holding up their religious book and using that as an excuse to attack others?
If you are stuck for an answer – it is none. As I have pointed out constantly and will continue to do so there has only be about 7 terrorists acts in the last 25 years in the US that the terrorist claim that Bible “gave them the right” to commit their terror acts.
If you know of more then by all means make a list. The trouble is that many folks for decades have been asking for such a list the the leftists and apologists never seem to get around to making one out. The reason — because there simply hasn’t been that many terrorist acts by Christians using the Bible as their guide.
That idiotic argument by Alan Colmes and others is just that. A smokescreen to say that there is an equivalence between religions. Colmes has been hammered on that so many times over the years, that now he has modified his comments to talk about “non-Muslims” rather than the days when he tried to blame Christianity as on par with Islam these past few decades.
An interesting question would be how many of those 72 –if that is a true number– is done by progressives. There is a steady stream of environmental terrorism all the time throughout the US. Whether it is setting forest fires, knocking transmission towers down, blowing up sub-stations, destroying forestry technology out-in-the-field programs, etc. Or of late all those people who listen to LSM and look for an excuse (Fox News, Beck, Rush) to commit terrorist acts.
Of course I’m not as big as Beck and will not give those dirtbags an out like many on the right do. Of course they are right, but I will shove it in their faces anyhow.
Anyone in this forum want to try to make a list up of all the Christians who have used the Bible as their guide to terrorism in the last 25 years? I’ll be back to see if anyone has even bothered.
- Anonymous
What are the 7 you know of? The only violent acts I can think of that remotely can be called Christian are attacks on abortion clinics and doctors. In all those cases, their acts of violence were directly antithetical to Christian values and dogma.
The difference with Muslims acting on behalf of Islam is that violence against unbelievers is in accordance with Islamic dogma.
- Anonymous
Yeah, mostly abortion clinics. And one guy getting ambushed in his driveway by some nut claiming the Bible told him to do away with ‘his’ kind.
Then there was that abortion clinic bomber who also apparently set off bombs at the Olympics.
I agree with the rest of your comments. It is the Islam apologists who like to try to make the comparison.
Another difference in the US compared to many Islamic countries is that the terrorist is hunted down by local, state and federal authorities. When caught they are given a fair trail and if found guilty there are given a harsh sentence.
They are also denounced by the Christian community as a whole.
In some Islamic countries they are treated as heroes when they kill Jews or Christians or blow up a church or synagogue
- Tyler
I know that one was for me mostly, but I actually am not defending Muslims on this one. I am actually just pointing out that semantics are important and if you want to shut people up about it…then stick to your argument without the label. It doesn’t matter if the label is right to these goobers and it doesn’t matter if you’re only pointing out that those who are a part of these actions are Muslim. It’s all besides the point. You can condemn the action(s) without condemning the religion…and whether or not that’s what you’re doing is also besides the point. Semantics…are…important. The reason the Rs did so terribly in keeping this growing despotism from happening is because they’re terrible at articulating their points and their ideas hence those who are just listening and not reading in to what’s being said hear nothing worthwhile…hence the “party of no ideas” or just “party of no” labels.

I might as well post this since I just read it at Jihad Watch. Although if you have been reading about Islam for some time this will not come as a suprise, as there has been many big studies over the years. And Muslims never come out looking very good in this polls because of “their” answers.
The trouble is they don’t feel ashamed about it at all. To many this is the way it is supposed to be .. the natural order of things according to the Qur’an.
This study is from students saying “killing for Islam” is the norm. A few years ago it for the young adults 23-39, 57 percent said killing of Islam wasn’t problematic.
32% of Muslim students in U.K. back “killing for Islam,” 40% want Sharia

On some days I feel sorry for those that don’t know about Jihad and continue to live in their bubble, other days I just think of them as less than useful idiots, I mean really if you have to be an idiot as least be a useful one. It is a losing argument, the only way one’s mind can be swayed is if they do their own homework, otherwise you are wasting your breath. Bit by bit they are winning, it’s up to the American people to decide how big their victory will be unless the Russians and Chinese get to us first.
The one question I have been wondering if there is any known jihad in China?
Korea and China are the only two countries that I can think of that doesn’t have a muslim invasion. Alaska and the North Pole perhaps are the other two places. - Tyler

Moderate Muslim Watch: How the Term “Islamophobia” Got Shoved Down Your Throat
Claire Berlinski,
Now here’s a point you might deeply consider: The neologism “Islamophobia” did not simply emerge ex nihilo. It was invented, deliberately, by a Muslim Brotherhood front organization, the International Institute for Islamic Thought, which is based in Northern Virginia. If that name dimly rings a bell, it should: I’ve mentioned it before, and it’s particularly important because it was co-founded by Anwar Ibrahim–the hero of Moderate Islam who is now trotting around the globe comparing his plight to that of Aung San Suu Kyi.
Abdur-Rahman Muhammad, a former member of the IIIT who has renounced the group in disgust, was an eyewitness to the creation of the word. “This loathsome term,” he writes,
is nothing more than a thought-terminating cliche conceived in the bowels of Muslim think tanks for the purpose of beating down critics.
In another article concerning the many moderate Muslims whose voices have been drowned out by Saudi-financed Muslim Brotherhood front groups, Muhammad describes the strategy behind the word’s invention:
In an effort to silence critics of political Islam, advocates needed to come up with terminology that would enable them to portray themselves as victims. Muhammad said he was present when his then-allies, meeting at the offices of the International Institute for Islamic Thought (IIIT) in Northern Virginia years ago, coined the term “Islamophobia.”
Muhammad said the Islamists decided to emulate the homosexual activists who used the term “homophobia” to silence critics. He said the group meeting at IIIT saw “Islamophobia” as a way to “beat up their critics.”

One more post for tonight – this article really introduces the nail to the hammer. For as long as I have been reading about Islam and discussing it with Muslims and non-Muslims this is usually the typical fashion the debate flows. About a month ago I got in what could be called a debate in a forum that lasted about a week –or about 30 posts when the time permitted– and it always got around to “I didn’t
know what I was talking about” because the Islam apologist just assumed that I hadn’t never talk to a Muslim. No matter how much information by Muslim Islamic historians I posted, it just meant nothing to her. Or perhaps that was just a her defensive shield because she was not very well informed about Islam except for what her American convert told her.It really is amazing how easy it is for someone to just dismiss 1400 years of documented history.
Objective Islam, Subjective Islam
By Bill Warner
December 22, 2010You can sort the written and spoken words about Islam into two categories — negative and apologist. Closer observation shows that the negative camp and the apologist camp use different logic, as well as come to different conclusions.
An easy way to see this is to go to a reporting source on the web, such as a newspaper, that has an article about Islam. Read the comments. The negative comments tend to be more based on ideas taken from the Islamic source material from the Koran and Mohammed. Or they quote a jihadi, a poll, or a historical fact.
The apologist comments tend to quote a Muslim friend or establishment expert and attack those who criticize Islam. Critics are called bigots, neo-Nazis, Islamophobes, or some other cruel name. In essence, having negative comments or judgments about Islam is labeled evil. The term “hate speech” is even bandied about. The critic of Islam is a failed sinner who is shamed and morally condemned. It is all very personal and very much about feelings.
[...]
Islam is supremely logical. Every Muslim agrees that Islam is the doctrine found in the Koran and the Sunna of Mohammed. (Mohammed is the perfect Muslim, and his words and actions have been recorded in detail.) All of Islam is founded on Allah and the pattern of Mohammed. Allah is found in the Koran, and Mohammed is found in the Hadith (the Traditions of Mohammed) and the Sira (his biography). All of the doctrine of Islam is found in the Koran, the Sira, and the Hadith (the Trilogy). If it is in the Trilogy, it is Islam by definition.
The Trilogy is not only an objective source of Islamic doctrine, but it is also the measure of all statements about Islam. We have an objective measure of experts. We don’t need to see what institute gave them the authority to speak as an expert. We need to compare their comments to what is in the Trilogy. If the comment agrees with Mohammed, it is true. If it disagrees with the Trilogy, then it is false.

Muslims in Western societies will always post a threat unless they distance themselves from their ill faith. Wherever great numbers immigrate and settle down, similar problems emerge.
Colmes has no clue. I turn off the tv when he opens his mouth. I don’t understand why Fox News even give him a radio show to host. If I want to listen to delusional appeasment lefties, I can turn to mainstream tv and radio.
I do believe Alan Colmes has fallen off his rocker too many times. Responding to Rep. Peter King’s announcement that he would like to hold hearings into our Radical Muslim problem here in the United States, Colmes asserts that angry white Americans are as much of a problem as Radical Muslims.
The real issue with Colmes is that he can’t stand the thought of one group of people being the target of these hearings even though law abiding Muslims aren’t at issue here. It’s the Muslim leaders and anyone else who would continue to radicalize other Muslims into trying to do harm to America for the sake of Islam. It bothers Colmes so much that he throws out a stat of 72 angry white Americas who plotted against the United States. (He doesn’t give a time period and I’m guessing it’s probably in the last 20 years or so as he eventually mentions Timothy McVeigh.) Shortly thereafter Crowley nails him with a stat of 126 Muslims arrested for plots against America in the last two years!
I think King is right on the money wanting to tackle a problem that seems to be festering with no one looking squarely at it. As for Alan Colmes, I’m sure he’ll be screaming with the Democrats at how racist Rep. King is next year once these hearings begin but for now, enjoy the clip below.
