Obama avoids NY terrorist bust in Homeland Security Speech

PREZ FINDS NYC PLOT 'UNSPEAKABLE'

PRESIDENT OBAMA'S speech on homeland security was 6,072 words long. Curiously, he chose not to spare an "a," "and" or "uh" on the New York City terror bust that dominated headlines the morning of his address yesterday. Did the TelePrompTer run out of room?
After a yearlong investigation launched by the Bush administration, the feds cracked down on a ring of murder-minded black Muslim jailhouse converts preparing to bomb two Bronx synagogues and "eager to bring death to Jews."
Not one word from the president on the jihadists' intended victims, motives or means. No comfort for the reported targets in the Big Apple, still raw from the Scare Force One rattling that so vainly and recklessly simulated 9/11.
No condemnation for the accused plotters. Why? Because doing so would force Obama to abandon his cottony "extremist ideology" euphemisms and confront the concrete truth.
To borrow one of our obtuse president's favorite clichés, "let me be perfectly clear" about the reality Obama won't touch: America faces an ongoing Islamic jihad at home and abroad not merely "man caused" but Koran inspired.
Yet Obama refuses to spell out the centuries-old roots of the war that he claims he'll win faster, better and cleaner than any of his predecessors.
Moreover, his push to transfer violent Muslim warmongers into our civilian prisons -- where they have proselytized and plotted with impunity -- will only make the problem worse. (read more...)
