"Well, I'll tell you what. The Koran is very interesting. A lot of people say it teaches love and there is a very big group of people who really understand the Koran far better than I do. I'm certainly not an expert, to put it mildly. But there's something there that teaches some very negative vibe," Potential 2012 GOP candidate Donald Trump told CBN's David Brody.

I think Trump is trying to shock as much people as possible. First he tries to shock anyone with a brain by posting his birther nonsense. What will he do next. He's a media hound.

Trump should start an investigation as to why progressives are required to have at least one token muslim friend (gay token friend is soooooo 90s) to be accepted as part of the elite circle of progressive friends.
