Those bed wetting, size extra large, assult rifle wielding, scared of shadows neocons. What would we do without their manly example of true strong, yet somehow fragile american society.
Limbaugh just wants to prevent the constitution from applying to non-whites. Period.
Again, I quote Orwell: "All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others."
Conservative talk radio, republicans, Fox, Beck, Newt, Palin ect all have blood on their hands
Sorry you can't do stuff like that... Binary Thinking, you know.
We just like it when all religions are covered by the First Amendment as opposed to just Christianity. Y'know, all that stuff that Thomas Jefferson was so concerned about 200 years ago?
The only thing sadder than the trolls who come to this site with their silly right wing talking points are the ones that take several days of preparation to do it.
Seapickle is like the fattest kid at Fat Camp.
He went on to say how the US has become more tolerant of religious diversity throughout the years. They only ask for tolerance in return. If the imam wants to build bridges, is this anyway to win friends or influence people by ignoring the sentiments of those to whom you are building bridges?
Speaking truth to/about progressives with a shout out to the small number of victims of Al Queda's, muslim and non-muslim alike, terrorism for which it has blood on its hands. According to the dear imam, these victims are few and far between but I say, still deserve America's acknowledgment.
Notice that proudcon didn't say "Breitbartized", Pete.
If you're referring to his "How can America be Islamaphobic if the evil liberals managed to vote in that secret Muslim Manchurean Candidate" comment, that has it's own thread.
This is a lie. He never said that, he said American foreign policy was responsible for more civilian deaths than Al-Qaeda. That's a fact.
And for the record, your "clarification" is just as stupid. So if Muslims want to be tolerated, white Christians get full veto power over everything they do. How American of you.
Yeah, but it's not a HAPPY FACTtm !!!!!
And this changed his bigotry how?
Sorry, fauxconservative, but tolerance for religious diversity was part of this country from the BEGINNING. Folks like you and Rush seem to think that Muslims have to ask permission to be here and that they have to EARN their right to worship in this country. According to the Constitution [you know, that document you claim to support], no one has to ask ANYONE for permission to worship or not worship in any way or in any place they wish. This outrage is being fueled by purely political motives by the faux conservative entertainers on Fox/hate talk radio. They know that their faux conservative followers [you] will believe whatever BS they shovel.
Given that we have freedom of religion right there in that Constitution-thingie (that you conservatives claim to be so fond of), we don't get to ask for ANYTHING "in return" for being tolerant of religious diversity.
Nope, you're either lying or ignorant.
They aren't asking for tolerance in return.
They're asking to be allowed to DENY the peaceful Sufi sect, who ARE Americans, their constitutionally-granted right to build a religious-themed structure anyplace that zoning regulations allow!
This group should NOT do that. They shouldn't "tolerate" that restriction, ANY restriction, on their freedom to express their religion in whatever way they see fit! One has the freedom to express oneself until it starts significantly impigning on another person's freedoms. But you don't have the 'freedom' to insist that your bigotry needs to be "tolerated" in such a way that it would prevent this group from builing where they want to build!
You really were unable to see the flaws in Blimpy's logic there ? You don't see the idiocy of claiming that the U.S. is very "tolerant", then going on to say that all they ask in return for that tolerance is a little tolerance of their intolerance ?
Rush Limbaugh has the easiest job in the world- BS-ing people like you.
Too bad they couldn't "save society" by
- coming up with their own healthcare reform bill
- eliminating corporate welfare
- not starting preemptive wars of choice

America itself is a pluralistic society: many colors, many creeds, many religions. Yet, despite Fox Propaganda and HAte 'eM radio, we all mostly manage to get along. Too bad Rush and those like him think America is a jar of cookies from which only they themselves may eat.
