Hate behind right-wing blogburst

As for violence, I would guess that Muslims are more victims than perpetrators.

(Rubbing obviously tired eyes) Huh???????

[TeenagedConservative]

Hahaha. I love it. Islam deserves a little ridicule at a time like this.

[agere_contra]

To be honest, I think that, here in Canada anyway, our Muslim communities are too diverse and too embedded in our culture and society for any kind of concerted reaction.

Just like France, in fact.

[Proud_USA_Republican]

More terrorism appeasing, anti-right wing crap from the Toronto (Red)Star.

[agere_contra]

I have to look this Kathy Shaidle up now and give her site a few hits.

[SandRat]

Just remember that in the last Canadian election Toronto was for keeping the Liberals in power by an overwhelming number.

[Mike Bates]

Follow their politics and you'll understand why they're on this particular blogwagon: they hate Muslims.

From the If You Think Jesse Jackson Is a Jiver, It Must Be Because You're a Racist line of reasoning.

[RichInOC]

What happened to the principle that the public has the right to know? If it's true when it comes to classified information, how is it not true of cartoons that have already been openly published?

[I still care]

"As for violence, I would guess that Muslims are more victims than perpetrators."

Maybe we should ask all the Christians in Bethlehem about that.

[KarinG1]

My goodness. And there are people who claim I am mean spitited.

[Uncledave]

"...never actually published in any legitimate newspaper"

In other words, a major metro area's liberally-slanted paper.

[hershey]

The author is crazy. Evidently bombings and beheadings, not to mention flying planes into tall buildings don't count as violence.

[trebb]

We really need to look into this - we might find that the right-wing bloggers caused the whole 9-11 thing and put out the misinformation on WMD. This could be a series hugh story.

[KJC1]

Gee, a leftie trying to shame people into silence? Imagine that. At least she isn't burning embassies, though.

[KarinG1]

(I'll let y'all guess whether I misspelled that on purpose.)

[balk]

In terms of the North American corporate media, only a few dailies, including Montreal's Le Devoir, have republished the cartoons, which are not particularly good, not very funny and not necessary to understanding the story. As many editors have explained, merely describing the cartoons is sufficient for making the point.

Unless you have photos of panties on the heads of POWs.

[mikeybaby]

I guess this liberal clinton butt kissing hack should ask Salman Rushdie(sp?) about insulting the ROP.

[PogySailor]

Wow! Full blown case of dhimmitude there.

[Proud_USA_Republican]

Case in point: Toronto-based blogger Kathy Shaidle (a.k.a. Relapsed Catholic) whose religious politics would have easily qualified her as chief judge and bonfire builder during the Spanish Inquisition.

Case in point: More people were murdered by muslims in the name of islam in 2005 than those murdered during the entire Spanish Inquisition.

[ElectricStrawberry]

Ah yes....the VRWBC. Who really thinks that bloggers "co-ordinate[d]" the blog-posting of this?

Mayhaps they did it all INDEPENDENTLY and at the same time.....ummmm...because it just happens to be "news" and the People may just wanna know what the hubbub is?

Nope....it's the Vast RightWing Bloggers Consortium.

Has to be....
