The GOP is seeing its (undeserved) reputation of being the party of national security being frittered away by Obama's relatively competent management of national security (when compared to Bush, anyway).

You are completely correct about Iraq Finnbow.....I see in some recent posts some weird claims that Muslims are killing each other more than other "groups". That sort of post just reveals fear of the "other" rather than a rational examination of the facts.

The Republicans want small government but at the same time complain about supposed lapses in national security on Obama's side. Plus their sequester will not help national security at all. Well Republicans if you want stronger security let us pay for it instead of trying to shut down the Federal Government.

I am starting to think this kid was just as much a mastermind as his dead brother. And he was probably using religion as an excuse to kill people with a bomb. He is indeed evil, but that is no reason to paint all Muslims with a broad brush and stereotype them as more evil than everyone else.
