Letter: Take action against extremists

The Columbian
Published: February 10, 2015, 4:00pm

Where do President Obama’s loyalties lie? With Americans, Christians, Muslims … who? His position became more fuzzy during his speech at the national day of prayer. In referring to the barbaric execution of a Jordanian fighter pilot, he warned Christians not to get on their “high horse” because Christians did bad things in the name of Christ. Really? Comparing what ISIL and other radical Islamic terrorists are doing today to the crusade and inquisition hundreds of years ago is stupid and juvenile. There is zero moral equivalence but he tries to make one, thus again diminishing Christianity and justifying terrorism … a typical progressive position.

Mr. President, it’s time you stood up (get on your high horse) against Islamic terrorists and start to do something about it. Maybe the next time an American is beheaded, you might give up your golf game.
