See this is where you and I part ways.

I absolutely believe in doing something about the problem.

I just don't think that political grandstanding with an impotent and inflammatory Congressional "investigation" is actually doing anything.

Democrats plead with King to cancel hearing on US Muslims
Rest assured, the Democrats can get even with him by holding hearings on the domestic terrorism of Sarah Palin and the Tea Party.

There are barely 1 million voting age Muslims in the entire country.

Comparing the massive Latino vote to them is like comparing an alligator to a lizard.

I have no idea what you are asking me. But whatever it is, no. I consider Shar'ia to be an abomination, an answer to nothing, and of absolutely no relevance to anything taking place in this country.

It is no existential threat to us, and much if not most of it is already against the law here.

Yet another example of how what things "seem" to you are often completely anomalous.

He hated the government, he hated the IRS, he was FAR Right. Also look at those who came to his defense, and supported him. Right Right and Right.

Regardless point is, we shouldn't have a narrow scope, we should be looking at all domestic terrorism. Having MR IRA lead this is another issue.

Please, read my lips.

I am all for investigations.

Or more specifically, I am all for real investigations.

This is not one.
