Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton stirred up controversy in the Middle East yesterday by calling the crackpot gunman charged with shooting Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords an "extremist" -- but offered no evidence of a political agenda or a cause that would drive him to violence.
"We have extremists in my country. A wonderful, incredibly brave, young woman Congress member, Congresswoman Giffords, was just shot by an extremist in our country," Clinton said during a televised town hall-style meeting at a college in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
Clinton brought up the slaughter by Jared Lee Loughner when questioned about why Americans appear to blame the entire Arab world for 9/11.
One does not necessarily have to have a "cause" to be an extremist... He appeared to be anti-government enough to be an "extremist" about that, and other views he was observed expressing in various classes on-campus.
It would to you. You don't care how our Government portrays us to the rest of the world. You also wouldn't call a terrorist act by them as a terrorist act. That is the problem. And you definitely are not the solution.
Hilary is a moron, just like her husband. How people like the Clinton's ever get appointed and elected to our government amazes me.
I wonder if the Muslim Arabs figured out that Hilary just called them metaphorically called them crazy lunatics?
