The reason that the KKK was investigated and its unlawful activities were stopped was because it was a threat.<br /><br />"Sekulow is a liar—this is about not only offending, but disparaging, a group of American citizens."<br /><br />It also amazes me how liberals consider themselves the infallible arbiters of truth, when they so often distort and ignore it. Last time I checked, someone needed a good deal of evidence to substantiate a reasonable guess as to a person's motivation.<br /><br />" It hasn't worked. If it had, there would have been no need for this circus."<br /><br />Another hallmark of modern liberalism is claiming that something has failed after they do everything to create a climate where it cannot possibly worked. Liberals have bent over backwords to ignore the fact that nearly all of the identifiable religious terrorism affcting the western nations is perpetrated by Muslims. No, not all religious Muslims are terrorists, but when you run across a religious terrorist, you have a 95+% chance that it's a Muslim. PC types have prevented this discussion, even as Britain and France have adopted "No-go" zones for non-Muslims in London and Paris. We can address the problem now, or suffer the same fate, or face worse later.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11769241624759010694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12391603.post-32736121742053897002011-03-12T19:19:28.205-08:002011-03-12T19:19:28.205-08:00Angela,

Imagine being told by certain high officials that “they” are radicalizing a certain segment of the population, and must be put down to keep the rest of us safe.<br /><br /> Make no mistake: that's what this could lead to, and quite easily. It's always selective: during World War II we placed tens of thousands of citizens under detention because their ancestors were Japanese. No such steps were taken toward those of German descent--if it had, we'd have lost the talents of Dwight Eisenhower, Jesse Oldendorf, Chester Nimitz and Carl Spaatz for certain, and maybe many more.<br /><br /><i>”There is no greater threat to our safety and the safety of our homeland than a radicalized American citizen intent on doing us harm”</i>, Sekulow claimed. What of Eric Rudolph? What of the KKK? How about Stormfront? Oh, they don't count; they are not so easily identified as 'radicalized', and anyway, they generally don't have swarthy skin and read some other god's book.<br /><br /><i>”This is not about offending a group of American citizens - this is about understanding the clear and present danger that radicalized Muslim American citizens pose to our nation.”</i> <br />Sekulow is a liar—this is about not only offending, but disparaging, a group of American citizens. I suppose when Dinesh D'Souza gets assaulted for being part of the 'wrong' group (such things have happened before), these super-patriots may reconsider their views...then again, probably not.<br /><br />In the past nine-and-a-half years, we have had color-coded alerts, launched <i>two</i> wars, doubled our waiting time at airports when we dared to travel, and submitted to being touched in places normally reserved for our loved ones or our doctors—all in the name of national security. It hasn't worked. If it had, there would have been no need for this circus. So how will these hearings do what all those other measures haven't?GMpilothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07189308176043748343noreply@blogger.com
