McCain Casts Muslims as Less Fit to Lead (Source: CAIR)
In response to a question from Beliefnet.com about the possibility of a Muslim presidential candidate, the Arizona senator said: “I just have to say in all candor that since this nation was founded primarily on Christian principles, that’s a decision the American people would have to make, but personally, I prefer someone who I know who has a solid grounding in my faith.”
9/11 Is Over (By Thomas Friedman) (Source: Adeel’s gtalk info)
I will not vote for any candidate running on 9/11. We don’t need another president of 9/11. We need a president for 9/12. I will only vote for the 9/12 candidate.
What does that mean? This: 9/11 has made us stupid. I honor, and weep for, all those murdered on that day. But our reaction to 9/11 — mine included — has knocked America completely out of balance, and it is time to get things right again.
Word. Good articles.
