katie who?

[Astronaut]

Calling Islam a religion insults real religions. It is a political philosophy based on hate and ignorance, practiced by barbarians and murderers. But I agree with you - it should be wiped from the face of the Earth!

[GoCards]

lol 3 times exactly lol

[EyeGuy]

“Seriously, we are not in the mood for a Muslim comedy show. I can assure you.”

Oh, I don’t know.

We just elected a Commander in Chief with a name eerily similar to the chief architect of the 9-11 slaughter of innocents.

Self-hating white progressives will pat themselves on the back for their “open-minded” “world view” for tuning in to the weekly episodes of “Leave it to Achmed”.

[BunnySlippers]

She is utterly clueless.

[Waryone]

When rage boy yells “Dyn-O-mite,” he really means it.

"One flew over the muzzie's nest."

A light hearted comedy drama about life, love, semtex stash and pork rinds.

[KC Burke]

In Katie's insular world, religion is similar to a garment trend, they “put on” what seems fashionable. With Kaballa trends gone, some now are picking up on bored British aristocrats dabbling in Islam.

Those they meet and socialize with in Katie's world have all religious and spiritual fashions held in a liberal manner with no general orthodoxy. They may hold take them to extremes, but extreme involvement is not orthodox practice.

She probably has friends that have the time to learn Arabic poetic verses from the Koran just to be trendy. This is the world as Katie sees it from the Near East Side in Manhattan and at the trendy country clubs in Connecticut.

[Lets Roll NOW]

Ignorance of Evil is not a virtue Katie.

[Little Ray]

Can you possibly get more stupid than this woman?

Either the actors would have to live in fear for their wives, or folks will end up REALLY not liking Islam...

[Altura Ct.]

This makes perfect sense as so many people live in TV la la land. They act as if TV is a true reflection of our society and that ‘reality TV’ is real. Of course they take the MSM at face value too.

I almost wonder if the Matrix isn’t real also...

[Tax Government]

I think any such show would be a lightning rod for Muslim constituencies that don’t feel it represents them. The only way it could succeed, maybe, is to have the stars saying things constantly that reach out to the outliers among them.There could be some possible storylines.

1) Muslim joins the U.S. Army but is bothered by things he learned at his U.S. Madrassa.

2) Chicks in burkhas develop fungal skin infections due to lack of sun. One forms an outreach-awareness group, complete with ribbons for the car and colored wristbands. America, shouldn’t we all become part of the solution to this vexing problem?

3) City revises law against wearing masks in public to allow burkhas, but requires wearer to have a license plate number printed front and back. What to do?

4) Young kid is given a school assignment to draw someone he admires. He draws Mo, and the negative reaction reaches the newspapers. Fast forward a few years. How is his life as an adult affected?

The show is not a bad idea, but no matter what the show says and does, it will be (and be viewed as) an attempt to propagandize viewers in the guise of entertaining them. But that’s what Hollywood is good at.

Episode 1: Cliff tells Claire that she has to quit her job as a lawyer because she mixes with men.
Episode 2: Theo beats Vanessa because he sees her flirting with a Christian boy at school.

Episode 3: Cliff decides to circumcise the girls himself and hilarity ensues.

---

Episode 4: Theo joins the Taliban and goes to Pakistan for training.

Episode 5: Rudy becomes the 4th wife of the local imam.

Episode 6: Season ends with cliffhanger — Denise being buried up to her neck in the city park because her husband accused her of adultery. (Stoning or NO stoning?)

My bad. Usually I put the word 'religion' in quotes for that very reason. Have been down with a stomach virus and not firing on all pistons yet. BTW, I think Couric and a burka deserve each other.

[Noumenon]

Islam is not so much a religion as it is a supremacist political ideology with a narrowly circumscribed set of rituals. That said, Islam was, is and will be a serial murderer of entire cultures and peoples. This is what Islam has done throughout its entire 1400 year history. This is what it has done whenever it has finally gotten the upper hand in whatever culture is has opposed. This is what has been inextricably interwoven into the 'DNA' of its operating system. Those whom Islam does not destroy, it enslaves, diminishes and impoverishes. Islam strives for the conversion, enslavement or death of all who do not conform to its sadistic and cruel vision of Mankind. Islam cannot be ‘reformed’ in the light of our Western values of humanity and freedom. Were that so, it would no longer be Islam. For its psychopathic and cruel misogyny alone, Islam is an abomination and worthy only of extinction.

Our message to the practitioners of Islam should be simple and direct: 'Threaten our civilization and yours is forfeit." Back it up with nuclear dawn over Islamic capitols, one by one, until Allah is worshipped only in hell.

Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Centipede. To boldly kill where no turban twanker has killed before. To seek out new targets and new infidels. To boldly go where no sand maggot has gone before!

Dee de deeeeee.... de de de de deeeeeeeeee!

[TribalPrincess2U]

That’s where her brains are...in her azz.

[R0CK3T]

Awesome, great news!!

Can’t wait for the episode on the honor killings, man that will totally be “CAN’T MISS” TV!!!

Good all around family fun time!!

Just think of all the really great story lines that we can get from this and how it will totally change our point of view about Islam.

[JennysCool]

Yeah, Katie! Maybe a cartoon show!

[Cowboy Bob]

I for one never believed the Nielsen ratings for Cosby. Isn't it interesting that its never been very popular in re-runs?

The show was vastly over-hyped.
