Thank you for being candid, Daniel Pipes.

Dear Daniel Pipes, You said in part, "I had confidence that the American people would reject Obama when they learned about his extremist political views, dubious associations, and biographical mysteries. I am astonished that these problems hardly registered, I feel bewildered by my own country, and apprehensive by what comes next."

Thank you for being candid. I share the exact same concerns that you have. In my opinion, America's enemies are global. They are here and abroad (as noted in public reports, arrests, court cases, and etc.). Generally speaking, the voters did not understand this and/or they have chosen to ignore it and/or they are willfully ignorant. It's a real shame.
