The Obama Administration has directed that it is not appropriate to use the term Islamic Terrorist when speaking. Who are we fighting in Afghanistan? Who destroyed the WTCs and killed 3,000 people? Who attempted to detonate a bomb in Times Square? Just think! We have 2 more years of this "crap". Or, could this be the beginning of another Venezuela?

Every time Obama or one of his puppets open their mouth it scares the heck out of me.
Just like the continued AZ law suits that is abusive to our legal systems and the continued executive orders around using tax payers money to fund foriegn off shore oild drilling that does not benefit the US, while at the same time stopping offshore activity that eliminates US jobs and hurts US consumers. Even the people in the gulf do not want the ban on off shore drilling, that hurts them more than the spill. And it is not hurting oild companies, and it is not just those jobs lost, it is also all that support that industry ... all while we are helping other economies with this craziness.
While I am on it ... did anyone see the job "growth" in Canada, Austrialia, South Korea, etc? HUGE ! ... did they have a wasteful stimulus program? NO ! Did they create incentive and tax credits for businesses for growth and job creation? Yes !!!! South Korea's growth has been so strong they raised their interest rates.
This needs to be a strong message in November. This administration will be the first in history that does not pass a "budget" .... why? It is too big of a deficit and they do not want to submit that since it will tell people how reckless they have been.

Why do they scream "Allah Akbar" just before detonating an SVEST or an IED or before slamming an aircraft into a building? Why is the boast "Allah Akbar" heard just before innocent people of ALL faiths die? If that is their slogan... their oath... then "Islamic Terrorist" is an accurate description.

Who have they "directed"?
Still think this is more of the Administrations strategy to "reach out" to moderate Muslims.
But, with 9/11 and other global attacks still fresh in everyone's mind, plus the war in Afghanistan, I think it is going to be a hard climb to convince people that we are not dealing with Islamic terrorists.
I remember that somewhere along the line, we were told to stop using "WOT", war on terror by the Bush Administration. I think this was about the time we invaded Iraq.
My only point being that for some reason all Administrations think that how we refer to things somehow changes public perception.

Did the Islamic terrorists not declare war on America?

I hope they think --- but some bright person probably decided that we're at war with all terrorists, not just Islamic ones.... and trying to appeal to moderate Muslims....
Like I said, 9/11 and all the other attacks are too fresh in American's minds to register the nuance. Don't forget, that's one of the thing Washington feeds on - nuance. Personally, I think it is a waste of time. In a sense, we are at war with Islam.
