There can be no doubt that Islamic terrorists and Marxists are and have been fellow travelers and co-haters of America and all that it represents.

But actions ultimately flow from what a person believes about God and from their worldview...Islamist or Communist.

We should no more accept Islamic ideology (which is utterly hostile to our way of life) than we should accept Nazi or Stalinist ideology.

Personally, I could care less what the source of the danger is...it should all be confronted and destroyed before it harms more of our people.

And it should definitely not be coddled and nourished on our own shores in the name of politically correct tolerance. The days when we could afford such foolishness are long past.

And in turn, I utterly reject the attempt at equivalence you're making. I am in agreement with our President, that religious tolerance is a fundamental basis of our society.

I hold to only one religious faith, period. But I will protect and defend the right of others to observe and practice their faith.

And if we are allowed to have religious expression in public life, as I, in complete disagreement with the ACLU, believe is right and proper, then I must acknowledge that a Muslim has that right as well just as I do.
