hood terrorist and vulght, 13 or 14 people killed there, 4 people killed here. they lie about a video when they knew immediately afterward, they had direct evidence that this was a planned attack, not as a result of a video, but to admit otherwise, would show the wholesale breakdown of his policy which is do say, if you are nice to al qaeda and woo them, they will like us and we won t have any more war with them. the truth is, laura logan has even pointed out how felashes that was, there is no such thing as a kinder, gentler taliban. there is no such thing as an al qaeda that doesn t want to kill us, even if we remove ourselves from the middle-east listen, i hope obama brings up shamus the dog again. that s how small you know why? then i get to play the tape of obama admitting that he ate a dog. if that s how small they want to go but, sean, here s why it s not small ball. this was a dodge big bird is
