This is superficial, ignorant, lightweight commentary. The author breezily avoids addressing the hard scenario that was propounded to Tancredo, as if waving his hand and saying with a sniff, "inexcusable" answers the question. It doesn't. Not even close.

In the meantime, Tancredo's statement has NOT resulted in increased attacks on US citizens and servicemen or massive demonstrations throughout the Muslim world. On the contrary, in the wake of his statements there has been a noticeable shift in attitude among moderate Muslims who are at long last beginning to show an interest in cleaning up Islam's own mess. One of these Muslims told Tancredo that he would have said the same thing if he had been Tancredo and the question had been put to him.

It's time you admit Tancredo was measured and right, you were overwrought and wrong, and that Muslims got the message that was intended in the spirit it was intended, and we are all better off because of it.

Who is the "you" to whom you refer?
