No, but it's a start.  As long as the word starts getting out, things can snowball from there.

On the way to lunch I had a radio station on that sort of has a slight liberal slant (very small) and they asked callers to respond to the recent attacks.  All but one expressed concern about this "religion" and put the blame squarely on the leaders of Islam.  The one that did call in to blame the US, and Bush in particular, came across as a complete idiot and was pratically booed off the line.

Like I said, it is a start.  If these attacks happen here it WILL start to get really ugly.

We have more freedom in this country, and that is why so many immigrants desire to come here

By the TENS MILLIONS if we allowed it, I might add.

Is that anything like my "give a damn" being busted?

Perhaps the most interesting thing about this is that some papers are actually PUBLISHING these letters. I am going to assume that they have been receiving such letters for some time, so why are they now deciding to publish them? Stepping outside the box of protecting the left agenda of destroying our country is not something that most newspapers do. Could it be that a few of the editors are becoming a 'leetle beet' concerned too?

True, but I'm surprised they're being printed -- perhaps that indicates a change in attitude.

I'm reminded of the George Orwell statement:

"In Times of Universal Deceit, Telling the Truth will be A Revolutionary Act"

It's Time to Revolt...

Either denounce Islam in its entirety or leave.

Exactly. When you've got a "Koran" that in SEVERAL passages teaches them to kill their enemies, it is renounce it or leave.

Exactly. Until the average Joe Sixpack tells his representation in Government: "Deal with this or we vote you out." and means it, or there is massive violence on America's streets, nothing will change. Letters to the Editor are worthless at best.

IMHO, it is going to take another major terrorist attack (or six) here for anything effective to be done about the problem.

The average American is too apathetic at best or too sympathetic to our enemies at worst to care; and governmental officials at all levels are too corrupt/compromised to do anything.

Moderate muslims' silence and lack of action may forfeit their right to live in America, in my opinion.

They've had plenty of time to take action. Now it's our turn.

Or:

Moderate Muslim ---> A muslim who supports suicide bombings and terrorism but cannot get the equipment and materials to support jihad.

ordinary Americans are rejecting the PC talk of "moderate" Muslims and Islam being a "religion of peace."

GWB isn't an ordinary American then.

It's time for the moderate muslims to decide. "Are you with us or against us"

The time for that happened at around 9:00 on September 11, 2001.  Time to start making them accountable for what they say, or in this case, don't say.

He's a politician and that is how they have to act.  However, if more attacks happen, especially in the US, he may get a lot more vocal on this.
