Does the humilation ever end under this president? Will this man ever let us hold our heads up as Americans under his reign?
It was stomach-churning to watch this video yesterday of a US four star General groveling for forgiveness to jihadists for "mishandling" extremist materials. The fish stinks from the head down, and this is Obama's foreign policy. Is it any wonder that jihadist attempts in this country have skyrocketed under this asshat?
And what is he on his belly for? This:
Religious materials -- including Qurans that were burned at Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan, sparking Afghan protests -- were removed from the library of a detainee center "because of extremist inscriptions" on them, a military official said Tuesday.
There was "an appearance that these documents were being used to facilitate extremist communications," a military official said.
"Additionally, some of the documents were extremist in and of themselves, apparently originating from outside of Afghanistan," the official said.
The official said the material was burned, but authorities are attempting to determine how much.
Obama is forcing the Catholic church to violate its doctrines while cravenly submitting to Islamic teachings about the quran. Where is the respect to Christians that he demands we give to Muslims? And where the hell is the GOP?

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — An Afghan official says two protesters have died in an exchange of gunfire during a riot outside an American base in eastern Afghanistan that also wounded two NATO troops.
The deaths raise to five the number of Afghans killed around the country during Thursday's protests over this week's Quran burnings at a U.S. base.
Governor Haji Mohammad Hassan says NATO and Afghan troops were firing in the air to disperse hundreds of protesters gathered in front of the base in Khogyani district in eastern Nangahar province.
Hassan says during the rioting, one man in an Afghan army uniform shot at NATO troops and seriously wounded two of them.
Earlier, Afghan police shot and killed three protesters during two demonstrations in the north and south of the country.
