Sophiestications

Monday, March 3, 2008

I cannot stress this enough: I do not equate Islamism with Islam. I do not use the terms interchangeably. To me, Islamism represents radical Islam, jihad, death, destruction, chaos, and man-made apocalypse.

A word of advice: "Reagan did it first!" or "Bush did it, too!" is not a denial. It is a CONFESSION.

PS: There was NO FY2009 budget signed into law by Bush. He signed a CR into law on 30 September 2008. It expired on 6 March 2009. On 11 March 2009, President Obama signed a FY2009 budget into law. Furthermore, Bush is not responsible for the Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Stimulus Act of 2009, the Defence Supplemental of 06.09 loaded with pork, Cash-for-Clunkers, Cash-for-Caulkers, Unemployment Insurance extensions, Making Home Affordable, a massive $680 billion defence bill in September - once again laden with pork, etc.
