The trouble with Liberals is that they believe social stimuli determines human behavior. They believe if you push a certain button, people will react in a certain way. The fact of the matter is is that OFFENSE is a CHOICE. It is one way of responding. One chooses to feel offense, or they may choose some other response. Offense is not built into an object. Offense lies in the person. Nobody offended the Muslims. Some Muslims chose to be offended.

Nana, you can choose to be offended. Then, you choose how you deal with it. The savage nature of Islam is taught and those who commit barbaric acts choose to do so. Never forget that they don't care who they kill or put at risk. Their bombs and weapons kill Muslims just like they kill people of other religions. They hide among women and children, who have no value in their eyes, and put them at risk just as they strap bombs on women and children, but only become outraged when a non-Muslim kills them.

I honestly believe that there are some of the Muslim persuasion who would choose to live with others in peace and friendship, if they were allowed by their leaders to do so.

Obama to UN: "Crude and Disgusting Video Sparked Outrage"

During his address to the United Nations today in New York City, President Obama again blamed violent Islamic riots in the Middle East on a video....six times.

In every country, there are those who find different religious beliefs threatening; in every culture, those who love freedom for themselves must ask how much they are willing to tolerate freedom for others.

That is what we saw play out the last two weeks, as a crude and disgusting video sparked outrage throughout the Muslim world. I have made it clear that the United States government...
