This is old news, and forgive me for being late, but I'm catching up on things that have a bee in my bonnet. The latest one goes back to ISIS' most recent beheading of an American - Peter Kassig.
It is bad enough that ISIS killed yet another American citizen as we sit back and look completely impotent. But the really bad part is Obama's official statement (emphasis mine):
"Today we offer our prayers and condolences to the parents and family of Abdul-Rahman Kassig, also known to us as Peter. We cannot begin to imagine their anguish at this painful time. Abdul-Rahman was taken from us in an act of pure evil by a terrorist group that the world rightly associates with inhumanity..."
The name Abdul-Rahman is the name Peter took up in a last minute sham "conversion" to Islam - a hail Mary to attempt to prevent his captors from cutting off his head. Obviously, it didn't work. And the Obama administration, in an act so callous and tone-deaf that it is jaw dropping, feel the need to be so politically correct as to call Kassig by the name that his killers made him adopt.
You cannot make this stuff up. These are the people that are leading our country.
There are no words...
