A quick survey of the forum shows they're very angry Boehner is too impotent to rein-in the TP caucus to pass his plan...
...and they're angry his plan may pass.
whatevs...it's driving them to distraction.
Since I cannot post over there I post it here for the lurkers.
We wouldn't want to deprive the poor little dears, after all.
Pfc. Nasser Abdo, the 21-year-old soldier arrested Thursday in connection with an alleged plot to attack Fort Hood, had ties to a number of prominent anti-war organizations, including Iraq Veterans Against the War and Courage to Resist, Raw Story can confirm.
Abdo, who went AWOL from duty over the July 4 weekend after being charged with possession of child pornography, was an applicant for conscientious objector (CO) status, supported by the Oakland-based GI rights group Courage to Resist. In turn, his efforts to resist deployment were supported by Iraq Veterans Against the War (IVAW), one of the best-known anti-war groups in the nation. …
In the wake of Abdo’s arrest, Courage to Resist removed a page on their website that detailed Abdo’s plight, but it was preserved through Google cache. Reached by Raw Story, Jeff Paterson, the group’s project director, acknowledged that they had tried to cover up their involvement with the soldier and said they would be issuing a statement in the coming hours.

I keep hearing how Robert Spencer of JihadWatch is responsible for Breivik and since THAT is such a big issue for the DUmbasses I figured this must be as well.
Right?

Report: Soldier Arrested With Bomb Materials Was Following Instructions from Al Qaeda Literature
Fox News drops this big revelation following the arrest of Pfc. Naser Jason Abdo, a Muslim soldier at Ft. Hood in Kileen, Texas this morning:
Sources said Abdo had enough materials to make two bombs, including 18 pounds of sugar and six pounds of smokeless gunpowder -- a possible trigger for an explosive. A pressure cooker was also found.
"He was all ready to go," one law enforcement source said.
Another counterterrorism source said the bomb making materials and methodology came "straight out of Inspire magazine and an Al Qaeda explosives course manual."
Law enforcement officials suspect Abdo was planning an attack in or around Fort Hood, though they say the exact target is not clear.
Many have been wondering if the arrest was terrorism related, and if these allegations are true, it would go a long way to confirming that. Also, the Associated Press is now reporting that Abdo has admitted to planning an attack on Ft. Hood:
