    You mean like the Tea Partiers claiming that Obama is a Muslim, and a communist, and that he wasn't born in America?
    ...i don't think she actually knows what a communist is.

    Whatever it is... it's bad. Communist is like a Fascist, a Socialist or an Optometrist

    In retrospect, Mr. Williams should write NPR a thank-you note. He just received a nice raise from Fox News.

    Juan should've played it safe and insulted Christians. They probably would've given him an Emmy for that.

    You mean beside the fact that he attends Christian churches and has birth records stating he was born in Hawaii? That's more evidence than the conservative lunatics have, which amounts to nothing more than, "He has brown skin and a funny name!"
    And I listen for the voice inside my head... nothing. I'll do this one myself.

    Good point. His presidency has been just as transparent as he promised it would be. I guess that explains why he's so good at uniting people. :roll:

    If I see a person who appears to be white with blond hair and blue eyes I could get just as nervous with those thoughts.

    When was the last time a blue eyed blonde white guy tried to blow up a plane? Political Correctness vs. Common sense.

    I know of a blondish white guy who blew up a federal building. Would it only be normal then to get nervous around white people in those situations as well?

    After reading your comment, timothy mcveigh and the likes of anti-government militias come to mind...

    Common sense says that anyone, no matter what their skin color/background/religion or political affiliation (or lack there of) who has extreme views on things can commit heinous acts..

    also, the fbi released a report in 2005 or 2006 that stated through 2005 there were more acts of terrorism against the us by jews, not muslims.......
