Palin On Muslims In The Military After Fort Hood: ‘I Say, Profile Away’

After the tragic shooting at Fort Hood by Major Nidal Malik Hasan, who reports now indicate had some contact with a radical Islamic cleric, Army Chief of Staff Gen. George Casey expressed concern over “a backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers.” Predictably, some conservatives have called for a crackdown on the American Muslim community, including those serving in the military. Now, in an interview with her hagiographer, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin has called for increased profiling of Muslims in the military:

She commented on the trail of evidence linking the alleged Ft. Hood shooter, Maj. Nidal Hasan, to militant Islam. “There were such clear, obvious, massive warning signs that were missed,” she said. “This terrorist, even having business cards” that identified him as an “SoA” or soldier of Allah. Palin blamed a culture of political correctness and other decisions that “prevented — I’m going to say it — profiling” of someone with Hasan’s extremist ideology. “I say, profile away,” Palin said. Such political correctness, she continued, “could be our downfall.” If the upcoming investigations into the attack reveal bad decision-making on the part of senior officials, Palin continued, those officials ought to be fired.

In an interview with Fox News’ Sean Hannity, which is set to air in full tonight, Palin predicted the backlash that would come from her embrace of profiling. “Because I use the word profile, I’m going to get clobbered tomorrow morning,” said Palin. “The liberals, their heads are just going to be spinning, they’re going to say, ’she is radical, she is extreme.’” Watch it:

“I say profiling in the context of doing whatever we can to save innocent American lives, I’m all for it then,” concluded Palin.

Update In an interview on Hugh Hewitt's radio show last night, Bill Kristol, the editor of the magazine that Palin told of her desire to "profile away," claimed that Palin didn't mean "profiling religiously." "But profiling someone who shows the kind of extremist tendencies, and violent tendencies, including if they’re based on an interpretation of a religion, that Hasan showed," said Kristol.

    As long as they’re white. Right Sarah? Unbe-f@cking-lievable.

    Does anyone in the new Republican Party even know what the Constitution is?


  4. EnnuiDivine says:

    Why stop there, Sarah? I hear the man accused of multiple counts of rape and assault in Cleveland is black. Let’s profile all black people! It will end rape and assault in America! And you know how there was a Mexican immigrant who got busted for possession of cannabis? Let’s profile all Hispanics! It will end drug use!

    This woman’s continued presence in the eyes of the media will be our downfall.


  5. Croaker56 says:

    I am sure Sarah was among those who screamed bloody blue murder when Homeland Security released its report on right wing domestic terror groups. How dare the US government profile those people…


  6. Purple State says:

    Of course, if we profiled Palin, we’d be called sexist.


  7. DRxJ says:

    Oh yes, let’s profile away.
    In fact, since the worst domestic act of terrorism was brought forth by an American, I say we “profile”
    all single white Christian males.
    That shouldn’t be too hard, should it Flailin’?

    (Of course, if such idiocy were to be proposed, could you imagine the outrage of those on the right, calling it “UnAmerican and discrimination?)


  8. Pilotshark says:

    Well Sarah I say yes do it and while we at it lets profile your Todd for him being a member of a secessionist movement.
    So lets not just profile one religion either as your wacko`s on your side are just as extreme as theres.

    Heres a novel idea,, why dont we wait and see how the Army`s investigation goes.

    And if there were signs missed lets also look at were theses signs was missed at and the timing. Walter Reed Remember there commander was relived after a investigation showing his lack of leadership, So I am sue there were signs missed and not reported. the old why reported it the higher s dont give a crap.

    just saying.


  9. shoeless says:

    “The liberals, their heads are just going to be spinning, they’re going to say, ’she is radical, she is extreme.’”

    Sounds like Sarah doesn’t like to be profiled.

    She is radical. She is extreme. She is also remarkably stupid.

    “I say profiling in the context of doing whatever we can to save innocent American lives, I’m all for it then”

    Gotta admit that Quaylin has a point here. Perhaps we should begin with the republican party. It would probably be a good idea for them to begin vetting candidates for things like active alcoholism (GDumbya and Darth Cheney) and pathological lying, narcissistic tendencies and magical thinking (Quaylin and Shelley Bachmann).


  12. missmolly says:

    “The liberals, their heads are just going to be spinning, they’re going to say, ’she is radical, she is extreme.’”

    No, Sarah — we already know you’re radical and extreme. Also incredibly dim. This latest drivel from you doesn’t change that, it just continues to confirm it.


  13. Purple State says:

    I stand behind my belief that Palin runs for the Presidency…

    …as a Conservative Party candidate.


  14. livelongandprosper says:

    “The liberals, their heads are just going to be spinning, they’re going to say, ’she is radical, she is extreme.’”

    Spinning alright but I say ’she is not very intelligent’.


  15. AllYouNeedIs says:

    If warning signs that this particular man was unbalanced were missed, then of course those who did nothing about their observations should be fired. But I don’t count his reading of the Quran and praying in a mosque to be part of those warning signs. Muslim does not = mentally unhinged.

    Palin On Muslims In The Military After Fort Hood: ‘I Say, Profile Away’

    – - “Big laughs. More contractions,” – Sarah Palin, “Going Rogue”, page 194, describing the speech she gave in Texas while in the middle of labor with a baby with Down Syndrome.

    It’s even ghost-written to look like Palin penned it.

  18. missmolly says:

    I understand that Dr. Tiller’s killer is a Christian. Therefore, by Sarah’s logic, all Christians should be profiled.


  19. mcthfg says:

    Tim McVeigh was a Christian.

    So, as an atheist, I say we profile all people who profess a religion.

    You never know when those Christians are going to blow something up…


  20. Hoodathunk says:

    I am all for a call to seriously investigate all individuals who publicly espouse violating the Constitution, call for insurrection and overthrow of our duly elected government or for establishment of religious dogma as part of our legal system.

    Gimme’ a break ……….Sarah , I don’t care what you have to say…..About anything…………Go away


  22. DRxJ says:

    Oh dear lawd, Flailin’ Palin is in Grand Rapids, Mi this morning, and the Detroit Free Press is reporting over 1500 are waiting in line since 7am.
    Now, before the rightie tighties start sprouting wood and furthering this as proof that she is so popular among main stream Americans, please realize that good ol’ GR is not a city of diverse partisan politics. It is, in fact, a very Republic city with quite a Christian background. Hello? Mr. Devos (Amway) is ultra ultra CONservative.

    The city ALWAYS votes (R).

    If Flailin’ had any true cajones (not that I’d expect her to, unlike mAnn C.), she should have started her “book” tour in Detroit or Flint.
    Ha! That would have been hilarious.

    She just has no idea what she’s advocating. She has no notion of how it would affect her own supporters. People like Tim Pawlenty have no chance of being elected by the Republican Party because they think too much. The GOP wants people who do NOT think as their front-people.

    Under the previous administration the door to the military was opened wide to allow gang members, those with criminal records, high school drop outs, Neo Nazis and a whole host of other less than desirable recruits in. I’m sensing the republicans believe those people are ok and good for our military, but muslims aren’t.

    I long for the day to see members from both parties acknowledge their own shortcommings before attacking.

  50. missmolly says:

    Last year, an ultra-conservative named Jim Adkisson went to Tennessee Valley Unitarian church and started shooting up the place, because he wanted to kill as many “liberals” as possible.

    Jim Adkisson had been reading books by Michael Savage, Bill O’Reilly, and Sean Hannity. He believed that “all liberals should be killed because they are ruining the country”.

    Adkisson had a semi-automatic weapon that could only fire three rounds before he had to reload, giving church members an opportunity to tackle and hold him. Otherwise, the carnage at that church could easily have eclipsed the fatalities at Fort Hood.

    Two tragic cases. Two severely unbalanced individuals whose personal lives weren’t going well. Two radical agendas.

    One was a Muslim who embraced a twisted version of his faith. One was an ultra-wingnut who embraced a twisted version of reality.

    According to Palin, Muslims should be profiled in order to save innocent lives. Will she also endorse profiling right-wingers in order to save innocent lives? Does she accept a double standard here? Or does she just speak without thinking?

    I hate to say it, but if you look back at all the instances of “terrorist attacks” in the past say, 15 years, the simple truth is the majority of them have been claimed by Muslim splinter groups. So, unfortunately, FV has something of a point. However, getting his panties in a bunch over the ones that happened here instead of being outraged that they happen at all is why I feel compelled to argue the point at all.


  90. Hoodathunk says:

    Since the only claims on the motives behind the Ft Hood tragedy have come from right wing pundits and the official investigation is still in progress, we can see that the righty tighties are just projecting more of their fear.

    Bill Ayers was a member of the weather underground during the Vietnam war. They blew up gov buildings and always warned them in time for there to be NO casualties attributed to them. Charges were dropped against him, he was never convicted of anything and went on to become a respected education expert in Chicago. Obama has a few tenuous connections with him. He went to a party Ayers sponsered and they both sat on a Ford foundation board. The LIES by the rightwing about him being Obamas mentor are just stupid brainwashing that only morons as stupid as FVNY take seriously. If you are in Chicago Dem politics you will run into Ayers

    “I don’t need, nor do I want, to be accepted by you leftist freaks.”
    – We get that. We know you’re not here to be accepted. You’re not even here to engage in thoughtful debate. You’re just here to derail the thread, like any troll. And by the way? A “freak” is something or someone highly unusual. Considering that we now outnumber your ilk by 2 to 1 or more, I’d say we’re pretty mainstream.

    “I just enjoy demonstrating what a bunch of hypocrite losers you all are.”
    – Which you haven’t done.

    “You claim that the right wing is a terrorist organization…”
    – Claiming that there are right-wing terrorists is not the same thing as claiming the entire right wing is a terrorist organization. There are many right-wingers who do not commit acts of terrorism, although some do. There are also right-wingers who say things that could incite violence (such as Ann Coulter saying that the 9/11 terrorists should have flown into the NYTimes building), but that doesn’t necessarily make them terrorists.

    “…yet I show you a prominent leftist…”
    – William Ayers isn’t all that prominent. While I’m sure his politics are progressive and probably deserving of the “leftist” label, he’s lived a life within the law for the past several decades. The only reason he’s been in the news recently is due to smear campaigns from the right, not because of anything he’s done lately.

    “…who is a terrorist and has the ear of the Democratic POTUS…”
    – Barack Obama and William Ayers once served on a community committee together. There is no evidence that Ayers “has the ear” of the President.

    “…and you deny he is a terrorist because he carefully planned the bombings as to ensure that nobody died.”
    – Um…while I don’t condone any act of violence, ensuring people don’t die gets more points in my book than ensuring people DO die.

    “Did your brain ever work or were you born this way?”
    – Gratuitous insult? A sure sign you’re out of ammo and are reduced to just tossing rocks.

    Will you use the same logic that you use to say that hitler was a socialist?

    You want to argue about trivial truths because you know you have totally lost here this morning and your ass is sore.

    Grow up and be a man. Accept repsonisbility and acknowledge reality. It will be painful for a while but you will be better for it in the end.

    Right-wing: Promotes a society with heavy religious influence.

    IF you’re gonna call Hasan a terrorist (for the sake of argument) and IF you’re gonna paint it in a left-vs-right debate, he’s probably more of a right-winger than a left-winger.

    __________________________________________________

    The premise is false. You inferring that right wingers are fundamentalists because many of them believe in God. How is that equivalent to terrorists killing innocent Americans?

    Based on your screwed up premise, terrorist could be considered leftist because they follow Sharia law which requires the Islamic government to tax the people in order to provide for the poor, elderly, orphans, widows, and disabled.

    Sure sounds like leftists to me!

    This brings up a point which has always puzzled me. Right-wing Christian Americans consider Christian fundamentalist extremism to be a good thing. Yet, they consider Muslim fundamentalist extremism to be the worst evil on Earth. Both ideologies are regressive and therefore said to be “conservative” or “right-wing”.

    Yes Fred. In fact, racists only see racism in the people they are prejudiced against. They consider that to be a bad thing, while they cannot see their own bigotry. I guess that is the same phenomena as right-wing Christians being unable to see that they are very similar to right-wing Muslims.

    Save your “Reagan supported terrorism” crap for your little commie circle jerks.

    So are you acknowledging that terrorism is in the eyes of the beholder?


  315. dbadass says:

    TTTC is the only one (besides me of course)

    Well atleast you seem to learn from your mistakes. You can thank me later…


  316. dbadass says:

    Ayers is a terrorist leftist piece of shit

    Is it possible he was acting as a “freedom fighter” those many decades ago? Please define terrorist for me. Thanks.


  317. shoeless says:

    So, the conclusion is that right-wing extremism is the common denomiator, whatever the religion of the terrorist. I suppose we should be happy that right-wing Christian terrorists and right-wing Muslim terrorists hate each other. If they ever teamed up, things would be much worse.


  318. dbadass says:

    Mainly because its a stupid argument.


    How so? Are we still using this definition of terrorism?

    FVNY says:

    Its the calculated use of violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious in nature.

    —————

    If so how can Reagan’s support of the Contras be considered a stupid example? Please display consistancy of thought. That is all I ask…


  319. MapleStreet says:

    221. Zooey,

    you seem to be discussing the idea with another poster that if Reagan wasn’t conviceted, it follows that he wasn’t a terrorist.

    However, weren’t certain high-ranking Reagan WH folk convicted for terrorist actions such as illegally selling munitions ?

    And if they are terrorists, how come the reich-wing worships them as heroes and gives them their own talk shows ?

    ;-)


  320. dbadass says:

    TTTC:
    Do you disagree with FVNY’s definition of terrorism?


  321. dbadass says:

    Is that a yes or a no?


  322. belaccifer lacca says:

    Now we know why he wanted them held there….$.

    Yeah, that makes total sense… let’s hold a trial in NYC in order to bilk the Government for a bunch of local cops overtime… it’s so simple!

    Wait, not simple but a synonym… what is it. Stupid. That’s it. That is a STUPID thing to say, TTTC.


  323. shoeless says:

    TTTC, if Schumer were attempting to move the trial somewhere other than NYC, would you say that he was violating the Constitution?


  324. dbadass says:

    Can you not handle the question? If not why not just place that king on its side as you have no way out assuming you give a damn about logic and consistancy of thought rather than blind ideology….


  325. Trollspotter says:

  326. belaccifer lacca says:

    TTTC says:

    Good to see you changing the subject… it makes you look uninformed and scared.

    Are you?


  327. PatrioticLiberalChristian says:

    I’m going out on a limb here, maybe, but I’d bet that Schumer is asking for “reimbursement” to the city of NY for the costs of the trial of the suspected terrorists. TTTC is just distorting, again.


  328. dbadass says:

    Is it possible that you have no problem with moral relativism when it comes to terrorism? Either terrorism is immoral or it isn’t right?


  329. PatrioticLiberalChristian says:

    FVNY says: Its [terrorism is] the calculated use of violence (or the threat of violence) against civilians in order to attain goals that are political or religious in nature

    So, would saying that if Americans don’t vote for Republicans, then there will certainly be another terrorist attack qualify as an act of terrorism?


  330. EugeneDebs says:

    TTTC

    Good to see you are still the STUPIDEST brainwashed moron on the block


  331. barfly says:

    Save your “Reagan supported terrorism” crap for your little commie circle jerks.

    Oh, my. This child obviously doesn’t know that Reagan sold weapons to the very terrorists who held Americans hostage, and his actions actually spurred additional hostage taking, when the terrorists saw how easily Reagan could be rolled.


  332. Mr.Duke says:

    How does law enforcement find any criminals? Profiling.


  333. dbadass says:

    Hi Mr. Duke. So in light of the McVeigh matter shall angry white dude’s with endless bit ches about the big bad government also be profiled?

    Something must be done without being to Politically Correct or losing Liberty. Read my blog about the media coverage of the Fort Hood shooting.

  335. EugeneDebs says:

    Mr DUKE you are a MORON. Profiling BEHAVIOR, not religion, nor race. My GOD you are stupid. Why wont you just STFU havent you humiliated yourself enough?


  336. EugeneDebs says:

    randumb

    Go away blogwhore


  337. dbadass says:

    The first person that tells me to read their blog is the last person whose blog I read…


  338. happycozy says:

    Now we know why the McCain campaign had minders with Sarah during her interviews last year. There’s not telling what will fly out of that mouth.


  339. randumblog says:

    I don’t need you to read my blog I was adding to the conversation and had already written on the subject, thought I’d save a little time and move on to the next article.


  340. skatoolaki says:

    Bill Kristol’s excuse for Palin, indicating really meant “…profiling someone who shows the kind of extremist tendencies, and violent tendencies, including if they’re based on an interpretation of a religion, that Hasan showed” is completely ignorant.

    If someone is showing those kind of tendencies, they don’t need to be profiled. They would be looked at in the course of a regular investigation because of their activities – regardless of their skin color, religion, etc.


  341. EugeneDebs says:

    Rumdum

    People who come to a website and tell others to read their blog are blogwhores by definition. Ya got something to say? Say it. There are a lot of intellegent well informed people here. Tell us what you think. Dont be a blogwhore


  342. Tahut says:

    Palin rationale #1,243:

    Well someone has to pay for all this profiling – can’t stick to the public. Say! How about we charge back the very people we profile? If they weren’t so guilty because of who they are, we wouldn’t have to go to such extremes to be safe, now would we.


  343. verskk says:

    What if that person you are profiling and harassing IS one of those innocent American citizens, Mrs. Palin?

    “american” is not shorthand for “white christian” you know.


  344. karengreen83 says:

    I wonder did Ms. Palin advocate profiling Christians after the attack at Camp Liberty?

    http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/meast/05/11/iraq.violence/index.html


  345. linzloo08 says:

    And the even bigger question is why does anyone still listen to “Failin’” Palin?.
