The "either-or" polarizing debates don't do conservatism any favors.

Did not appear to me there was any polorizing debate taking place, if that is what you mean. What did you mean?

[BJungNan]

Where is "here" and if you're there why don't you know if I'm there? Can I have your push?

I was wondering down the road to California state flowers are ready to pick a band to play in the sand at the beach.

"Extremism believes that it's okay to strap bombs on to your children and send them to paradise and whatever else and to behead people," he said yesterday....

The Israeli-born US musician went on to say Islam was a "vile culture" that treated women worse than dogs.

Ping for a hedonist that at least knows how to define these terrorists.

"The Israeli-born US musician went on to say Islam was a "vile culture" that treated women worse than dogs.

Muslim women had to walk behind their men and were not allowed to be educated or own houses, he said.

He went on to say the West was under THREAT."

I guess it takes a rock star to finally get through to the mesmorized sheeple masses . .

This guy is great!!

Until he starts spouting leftist opinions. Then he is just another celebrity whose opinion is irrelevant.

[Huck]

He's a nice Jewish boy.

Although it was a friendly audience, I was talking with the fellas(Including a police officer) at the gun store the other day and we all agreed that if we keep giving the country away to these Muhammadans, we may end up with our own version of Fallujah right here in America, where good citizens may have to defend thier own houses since the government does not seem willing to stop the flow of Islamists into the country.

[Taquito]

And he speaks 5 languages I think.

Isn't Simmons the guy who says he's slept with something like 10,000 women? and Cher?

No, no, no. You are thinking of Richard Simmons.

Coffee out my nose. It's way too early to be laughing like that!

[Freebird Forever]

You have to love a band that has their own Army.

Mojo Nixon's song "Don Henley Must Die" is one of my all time favorites.

[astounded]

Flash:

Actually, it was the Allman Brothers Band before it was the Greg Allman Band. Perhaps the greatest guitar combo band that ever played together. Check out the Allman Brothers Band "Live at the Fillmore East" (1971 release) for some of the most amazing, intense guitar licks ever put onto vinyl.

Don't forget the Marshall Tucker Band and the Charlie Daniels Band. Charlie Daniels is a great American who is bound by faith but not afraid to speak out in defense of the US.

[astounded]

randog:

ROFLMAO!!!

[Fester Chugabrew]

WTF was last one???

I remember WTF. Weren't they known as "World Turtle Federation"? At any rate they were probably not the last one.

[ought-six]

"I was just waxing philosophically about the great bands of the 70s:"

Derek and the Dominoes;
Fleetwood Mac;
The Eagles;
Marshall Tucker Band;
Jethro Tull;
Moody Blues;
Allman Brothers Band.

Just to name a few.

The Starland Vocal Band?

OK. The Islamabombers are evil. But you're really really evil. Now I can't get that song out of my head!

[bondjamesbond]

The radio station today fielded calls from Muslims upset at the comments, including Australian Muslim of the year Susan Carland, who said Australian Muslims rejected extremism and did not fit Simmons' stereotype.

Ms Carland said she had two degrees, was doing her honours and "certainly do not walk behind my husband".

I sure hope Mzzzz. Carland clutches those two degrees to her chest as she is led, burkha'd, down on to the soccer pitch the day after the Islamic revolution comes to Australia.

Well, you know, I suppose he's perhaps painted with too broad a brush. Not all Muslims adhere to the primitive aspects of their religion's more fundamentalist interpretations.

Nevertheless, it is disingenuous to pretend, with feigned outrage, that his criticisms are completely invalid. Certainly, a cursory glance at much of the majority Muslim world shows that the problems he points to do indeed exist. And the imams we see in the West, do tend towards the kind of fundamentalism and extremism he is criticizing.

One more note: I sympathize with those who, raised from birth as Muslims, only wish to live in peace, and respect their right to practice their faith...however, in my admittedly biased view, a Westerner, and in particular a woman, who would turn from Christianity (or Judaism) to Islam, particularly in these times, would seem to me to be suffering from a mental disorder.

[JacksonCalhoun]

I cringe whenever I hear that song and it's whiny liberal pessimism. They always seem to play it in the grocery store.

[jmc813]

I really did enjoy watching you surround and out-number your friends on that other thread

The AWB thread? That was about the most pathetic defense of gun-grabbing I've ever seen, and that's saying a lot.
