Or "misplaced."  Or "spent."  The possibilities are "endless."

I'll go with 'misplaced' and perhaps someone else pick it up?

I'm working on a new theory of extremism.  Originally it was only meant to apply to political extremism, but I think it might work for any kind of extremism.

Two characteristics I've identified so far that are shared by all extremists: a proclivity for inductive reasoning, and a tendency to rageaholism.

Have you noticed how Barack Hussein never mentions the name of Mohammed? That is because if he did, he would have to add "peace be upon his name" after saying that name, and then we would all know for a fact that he is a muslim.
He said that the future does not belong to the slanders of the prophet of Islam, instead of saying the actual name of the dude.
So we need someone to challenge President Hussein to say the name of Mohammed.

He also has to tell us if he's a cop if we ask him and he can't lie, or it's entrapment.

Well, my cursory google search couldn't find any evidence to debunk Siege's claim, though nearly all the stories I found were about the one speech to the UN.

Well don't worry he did in a speech "A New Beginning" by President Barack Obama, Cairo. June 4th 2009.

QuoteToo many tears have been shed. Too much blood has been shed. All of us have a responsibility to work
for the dawhen the mothers of Israelis and Palestinians can see their children grow up without fear; when
the Holy Land of the three great faiths is the place of peace that God intended it to be; when Jerusalem is
a secure and lasting home for Jews and Christians and Muslims, and a place for all of the children of
Abraham to mingle peacefully together as in the story of Isra—as in the story of Isra, when Moses, Jesus,
and Mohammed, peace be upon them, joined in prayer

Of course, he did sort of say what Siegy said he would need to. :D

The future must not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.

Indeed, and he camouflaged it by adding the names of the other dudes.
Had he mentioned Mohammed alone he would have come out of the closet.
