From the AP: An Iowa Republican congressman said Friday that terrorists would be "dancing in the streets" if Democratic candidate Barack Obama were to win the presidency. Rep. Steve King based his prediction on Obama's pledge to pull troops out of Iraq, his Kenyan heritage and his middle name, Hussein. "The radical Islamists, the al-Qaida ... would be dancing in the streets in greater numbers than they did on Sept. 11 because they would declare victory in this war on terror," King said in an interview with the Daily Reporter in Spencer. King said his comments were not meant to demean Obama but to warn how an Obama presidency would look to the world. "His middle name does matter," King said. "It matters because they read a meaning into that." Watch the interview:

The secret word.
Costs more like $3,000,000,000,000.00 than $50.00 though. And of course it is pronounced al-CIA-duh.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' What an endorsement for Obaba.
The real question is whether Israeli "art students" also be dancing on top of buildings like they did on Sept 11th.
If Clinton or McCain win, the Israelis will be dancing in the streets, ordering new big limos and vacation homes in Monaco.
I have no idea what the donation rate per utterance is these days.
Blah Blah Blah. They said the same thing when the "D"s took congress in 2006. Al-CIA-duh was going to rise up and kill our brave boys in Iraq, Osama would invade the US, and then drown puppies and kittens by the dozen. Oh, except now they say we're winning like we've never won before despite "D"s holding a slim majority. I don't know what bothers me more. That this crap is so easy to see through or that most people still can't see through it.
"The more I see of life, the less I fear death." - Me. "If violence solved nothing, then weapons technology would have never advanced past crude clubs and rocks." - Me.
It's all IOUs our granchildren and their children will be expected to pay.
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' the latter
'He will make Cheney look like Gandhi.' Cheap political trick by a silly amateur spin artist. Unlike Americans, Muslims in general are not that stupid or politically naive. And, it would make no sense to identify with Obama only to be terribly disappointed as he orders cruel, ghastly, unspeakable things against Arab and Persian Muslims that all American presidents must pledge to carry out before ever being allowed to enter the "election cotillion arena" and dance with the mainstream media "debs". This is another morally bankrupt, issue poor Republican hack trying to use American bigotry, ignorance and suspicion of foreigners in general and Muslims in particular against Obama. The issue will be beaten to death and will likely backfire on these cheap shot assholes. The one thing that will become abundantly clear in time is that Obama is as loyal an American as any other politician. and, thanks to Marc Rich and AIPAC, Chinese Buddhists, the Clintons, etc., the standards are pretty darn low anyway. And, any "Al Qaeda" we see dancing in the streets will likely be wearing Class A patent leather British and/or American military dress shoes and ill fitting wigs over their high and tight regulation haircuts, and are nothing for any American to be angry about.
Robert Ingersoll, 1878 LOL! Talk about damning someone with faint praise. Good 'un!
Liberty is not a means to a higher political end. It is itself the highest political end."al-Qaida"
