#1 This fellow and his Islamic drivel is appearing in the news rather often of late. Is he fearing an end to his appointment may be eminent ?

#3 Please feel free to quote me as decrying this traitorous asshole's comments as being "tremendously detrimental to our interests".

Oh, and fuck him.

#4 Brennan said. "It's a psychopathic ideology that is very absolutist, that either you are with us or against us."

You calling out George W. because I think he said this shortly after 911 ("You are with us or against us")? It was a good slogan for rallying the country and letting our enemies know we were not going to stand for them providing support to our enemies. It was unambiguous. None of the namby-pamby chicken-shit mealy-mouthed tripe that comes out today such as "Leading from Behind." No apology tours. No drawing of movable red lines in the sand.

I don't recall that we separated the good Germans from the Nazi or the good Japanese from the military shintoists. Like radical Islam, the Shintoists were embedded in Japanese culture as are the radical Islamists in Muslim life. Recognition that radical Islam is embedded deeply in Islam would have shortened the WOT. Of course that was then and this is now. But then we used to win wars too. And that was when Congress declared war on our enemies—not the President or the Secretary of State behind closed doors.

#5 If African-Americans didn’t get out and vote for Hillary Clinton, they would be dissing him and his legacy. So warned President Barack Obama, in a speech at the Black Caucus Foundation in Washington DC, on September 17

His legacy should have been impeachment.

#8 Taint Islam? Islam taints Islam. It is the acceptance of the medeival radical Islamism of Ibn Tamiyya, and his absolute rejection of all cultures other than the Islamic, and religions other than Islam, that spurs the murderous Salafist movement today.
