Hortnon, as you pointed out, he 'tried' to get into contact with AQ agents. I don't know that contact was actually made. That makes para. 3 irrelevant, and makes para. 1 - with it's definition of attempted communication - central. I don't know if you i … (see comment)

Fort Hood shooting: Barack Obama would have to approve death

I don't think you're trying to be a dick, and will attempt to clarify. I reject calling all who oppose Obama a 'terrorist.' My complaint is that the DHS stated that EVERYONE who disagrees with the Administration is to be considered 'extremist.' I rej … (see comment)

Democrat is 'confident' that Stupak amendt will be stripped

It's the Republicans who got played here as well, deema. They voted for a pro-life measure, not even dreaming it would simply be stripped from the bill. Had they voted against it, the entire issue would have been dead. (see comment)

If you and I are defining 'extremist' in similar ways, then no, I didn't object. Not even a little bit. Every person who uses religion or politics to advance a violent agenda should be - at a minimum - investigated. If the evidence warrants further act … (see comment)

Hortnon - Long time no see. And it is in the UCMJ: Article 106a, Espionage and Treason: "Any person subject to this chapter who, with intent or reason to believe that it is to be used to the injury of the United States or to the advantage of a forei … (see comment)

I have shown no inconsistency whatsoever. I have never opposed 'keeping an eye' on those who threaten violence, no matter their religion. Nor do I oppose interrogating and/or arresting those who have shown a willingness to cause harm whatever their pri … (see comment)

Fort Hood Shooter Tried to Contact al Qaeda Terrorists, Offi

So a high-ranking officer in the US Army tries to make contact with the enemy, the FBI knew, and the Army didn't and NOTHING was done about it? Isn't that - by definition - treason? I guess 45 casualties is a small price to pay for political correctness … (see comment)
