There is no question we should be investigating the radicalization of American Muslims. But by we I mean the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and local law enforcement not Peter King.
If you ask law enforcement officials why there hasnt been a second al Qaeda attack since 9-11, they invariably tell you it is because the U.S. unlike Europe and parts of Asia does not have pools of highly radicalized Muslims. America assimilates immigrants well.

CNN covers breaking news better than anyone in the business. Fox and MSNBC are horrible at it.
That is just a fact.
The people covering it all is another story.
They have the authority to call investigations on anything that hurts the country. That can also include corruption of fellow legislators or supreme court justices. (However, when they spent all that time and taxpayer money on steroids in professional sports, I thought that was jumping the shark.)
Yes, that book, its writer and like-minded readers all make me ill. I’ve seen that photo - it was just another purposeful way for BHO to thumb his nose at America and its patriots.
“Yeah. We should take our clues on how to fight Muslim terror from a guy named Fareed.
Why not? We’ve got a guy named B. Hussein Osama, I mean Obama, in the White House.
“The people covering it all is another story.”
Well, I guess I get so disgusted by the slant of those covering it and their obvious politics (Anderson Cooper is another annoying example) that I soon channel switch. CNN also ignores some stories that FNC reports, at least until one becomes so big they can’t any longer, like the ACORN sting. Nothing on Van Jones until, at the end, a brief blurb about him “resigning”, as I recall. They also give scant attention to most news involving radical Islam.
I’ve been watching the Japan earthquake and nuclear plant situation most of the day and night, and FNC’s doing just as well as the others in its coverage. They’ve been doing it live for hours and hours.
I scanned Article I ofn the US Constitution while I was having breakfast this morning. I found nothing that authorizes Congress to investigate anything. Maybe you can cite the provision that I missed.
It’s grandstanding when Nostrilitis Waxman does it. It’s grandstanding when King does.
