"We Are Not At War With Islam" - POTUS

By Jack Brummet

In his first visit to a mostly Islamic country, President Obama in Turkey said that the U.S. "is not and never will be at war with Islam."

Wow. We've been waiting eight years to hear someone say that, aloud. POTUS/VPOTUS Bush and Cheney could never actually bring themselves to say those words. . .because they didn't really, in their heart of hearts, believe them.

President BHO was working it hard to mend the frayed ties with our longtime NATO ally Turkey and to reach out to the larger Muslim world. I spent a lot of time in Turkey last summer, and the one thing I carried away was that they had no beef with America; their problem was with George Bush and Dick Cheney. Thanks, Mister President, for clearing this up, after all this time. They're glad to know it, I am most assuredly glad to know it, and I think the world needed to hear it from the horse's mouth.
