Dems Fume as Al Qaeda Cell Political Ties Revealed

Democratic Party insiders are said to be furious over published reports identifying the five al Qaeda cell members arrested over the weekend in Lackawanna, New York as registered Democrats.

Sunday's Buffalo News initially revealed the inconvenient detail, noting first that "members of Lackawanna's Yemeni community describe the five arrested men as 'all-American.'"

"They include a telemarketer, a used car salesman and a former high school soccer star who was named friendliest in his class. Four are married, and three have children. All are registered voters — Democrats," announced USA Today on Monday, picking up the News report.

News of the al Qaeda cell's political affiliation can only exacerbate the party's already growing image as being soft on terrorism. Monday morning, for instance, noting that the Lackawanna five will be unable to go to the polls in the future, WABC Radio's Curtis Sliwa joked, "There's five less votes for Hillary Clinton."

Some Republicans see the "Al Qaeda were Democrats" reports as poetic justice.

Over the years, Democratic Party spinmeisters and their liberal media friends have repeatedly attempted to make hay over the political ties of domestic terrorists like Timothy McVeigh, whom President Clinton once tried to tie to conservative radio talker Rush Limbaugh.

It just keeps getting better and better with the Democratic Party here folks...

It's hard to believe that these people have ties to Al Quaeda. It's horrible. I wonder how many more will be found?

 

[SINthysist]

They've had at least two decades to get established where no one was paying any attention. PBS even has a documentary showing them in Kansas City raising money and featuring speakers who admitted to killing Jews, advocated an end to Isreal, and telling the world about their plans for the United States.


And you get two-faced shit like Hillary's denial yesterday that Bill COULD HAVE GOT OSAMA DESPITE HIS TAPED ADMISSION TO THE CONTRARY. Now, where's the Times and the Post on this one?

 

[SINthysist]

But remember, profiling unfairly and unharshly puts the spotlight on outstanding Arab-American, peaceful law abiding types who say it's not fair to them...

I'll bet that's what these five would have said had they been polled, as ordinary every day Arab-American Citizens that is...

Why do you think we've seen no mass protests?

5th column baybee, 5th column. They have allies, enablers, and protectors in the Left, the Democratic Party, and the Traditional Big Mainstream Media. But of course, to believe that makes you a knee-jerk ditto-head, now doesn't it?

Happy Monday.

Happy Monday.

To you too

What's with the funky funky butt chic and the butt toys? That sounds right up my alley.

Big Fucking Deal.

People like that can register with the Marines for all I care. They still suck all the same, and it is no reflection on other groups which do not share their goals.

And maybe membership in an American political party helped make good cover.

 

[Azwed]

I don't see how you can blame any of this on the democratic party. Anyone who can register to vote can register as a party member of whatever party they want to or choose not to register with a party at all.

Its no like there are regular democratic party tests you must take to gain membership and keep your membership active.

Right on binkley, groups don't necessarily represent the individuals within the group. To label any organization as Al Qaeda, except those that are in fact Al Qaeda is just nonsense.

 

[SINthysist]

Yeah, but more terrorists seem to prefer Democrats in office.

NOW THERE'S GOT TO BE A REASON FOR THAT!



That means, drumroll, they VOTED FOR CLINTON!



It just keeps gettin' better!



WHAT A GREAT MONDAY

i was more shocked that people connected to this live 15 minutes away from me, they work at the store not to far away, i know it could happen anywhere but never think it could happen in your own backyard

Crime happens everywhere. This just happens to be interesting crime.

 

[phrodeau]

Who would have thought a telemarketer and a used-car salesman would have ties to terrorism?

 

[Black_Bird]

Perhaps they were just trying to fit in?

Isn't it easier to fit into American Society if you are a registered voter? Who to register for? Probably all of them would register for the same party. Well, who? Lets flip a coin.

 

[Spinaroonie]

That means, drumroll, they VOTED FOR CLINTON!

Actually given a sample of five random people, registered or not, odds are that maybe one of them voted.

Foreign policy that isn't war mongering, perhaps?

you don't register, you enlist

but then you again you probably have a prescription for your newspaper.

SD - Fighting for the cause on more than one front perhaps?

You can poll dead people in Alabama and Philadephia also, they vote in big numbers too.

 

[SINthysist]

I mean, as clever as these guys are, they still leave a few Blues Clues for you to follow...

Democrat is one more clue to add to your notebook.

Now, to the thinking chair... Where do I look for Terrorists...?

I KNOW! The Baptist Bingo Hall! Lots of Dem Timmy McVeigh types there! That's the best place to find 'em! THE RELIGIOUS INTOLERANT RIGHT! THAT'S WHERE WE'LL HUNT THEM DOWN !




It just keeps getting better! Anybody found out how the sixth guy was registered yet?

 

[Spinaroonie]

Y'know sin...

Not only was he a Registered Republican, But Ted Bundy was a Republican Activist! Using your logic, Republicans support serial killers.

IMO, That doesn't let the eagle soar.

 

[christo]

I don't think being a registered Demorcrat means you have "ties" to the party. I don't think these guys were in smoke-filled rooms deciding who gets the sanitation contract in Buffalo, anything like that.

What kind of inhuman creature would be a telemarketer AND a terrorist? I mean, are you in that big a hurry to get to Hell?

And of course they would NEVER look at the party platform or agenda in any way to make such a choice. Why, of course not! That would be discriminatory.

And a foreign policy that ignores attacks on American civilians and military abroad, perhaps?

Chicago is another city with a reputed large turnout of the dead vote.

Do you think perhaps one registered in a party might find some affinity with the party's platform, goals and agenda?
