The enemy within, my parenthesis, my sarcasm:

Texas, San Antonio C.A.I.R.

An American immigrant from Pakistan, Husain is president of the San Antonio chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a Washington, D.C.-based civil rights organization. She started a monthly newspaper, Al-Ittihaad (Unity), writes opinion columns in the Express-News, and regularly speaks to groups ranging from Texas Republicans to Our Lady of the Lake students to Mensa members.

"The news of the day is, What are the Muslims doing? Who are they killing today?" she told a room of students at Our Lady of the Lake University last month.

"Islam is the most misunderstood religion in the West." (oh, really?)

In post-9/11 America, all Muslims are under suspicion. The Patriot Act, which endowed the U.S. government with wide surveillance and detention powers, codified America's paranoia.

Since September 11, 2001, Husain, who until then operated nursing- and child-care facilities, has embarked on a mission to correct public misperceptions about Muslims: "They are not all Arabs."

(She says:) "Islam does not advocate violence, but rather, social justice."

Right, and I do also.

Who does she think she is kidding?

The liberals of course buy it, hook, line and sinker.

Now, I am sitting here smiling, as this gives me the perfect opening to introduce a new book on the market.

I heard the author twice last night and it sounds interesting, he has done his research, on the famous liberals of America and his aim was to see if they did in real life, as they want you to do.

There were several of great interest and I can imagine there are many that he has not talked about on radio.

Bohanon, gave him an interesting hour, it was a good interview.

Michael Moore is a complete fake, no, that was not a surprise.

The Kennedy's discovered that a trust in Fiji, of 300 to 500 million, cost them less than 1 % in taxes to the U.S.

None of the Soros money is stored in the U.S.

The Book, by Peter Switzer, is:

Do As I Say (not as I do, Liberal Hypocrites (sp?)

That's a must read article. :-)

(snippet)>>>Husain turned on the television as the second plane hit the Twin Towers. When she heard that the terrorists were likely Muslim, her thoughts moved from the tragedy unfolding on TV to her fellow Muslims. "I thought, What will happen to Muslims in this country? It will never be the same. My whole self changed."<<<

Telling thoughts...very telling.
