Below The Beltway

It took some time, but we’ve finally heard from the Muslim contingent of the moonbat alliance.
An Islamist Web site on Sunday posted a recording from al Qaeda’s leader in Iraq saying Hurricane Katrina was an answer to the prayers of Iraqis and Afghans who have suffered under U.S. occupation.
The audio message thought to be from [...]

Imam Marion Gordon Robertson of Virginia Beach has apologized for his comments earlier this week calling for the assassination of President Hugo Chavez of Venezuala.
Hopefully, this will be the last we hear from this moonbat for awhile.
At the very least, it will be the last time I mention him on this blog.
Unless, of course, he [...]

Apparently, Imam Robertson is attempting to clarify his remarks about Venezuala’s President Hugo Chavez.
I didn’t say ‘assassination.’ I said our special forces should ‘take him out.’ And ‘take him out’ can be a number of things, including kidnapping; there are a number of ways to take out a dictator from power besides killing him. I [...]

A question to ponder:
What is the difference between Pat Robertson’s call for the murder of Venezuala’s President and the fatwa’s issued against American citizens by various Imam’s in the Middle East ?
The answer, of course, is that there is none. Therefore, henceforth, I shall refer to him as Imam Robertson.

Apparently not satisfied with praying away a hurricane, televangelist Pat Robertson is delving into the politics of South America:
Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson called on Monday for the assassination of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, calling him a “terrific danger” to the United States.
Robertson, founder of the Christian Coalition of America and a former presidential candidate, said [...]

According to Lawrence Simon, we should just give in to Cindy Sheehan’s demand to meet with the President responsible for her son’s death.
He’s right. Read the whole thing.
Hat Tip to Outside The Beltway

Apparently, President Bush isn’t the only Republican leader advocating the teaching of so-called `intelligent design’ in schools.
According to this story on MSNBC, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist has now joined those advocating the evisceration of America’s science curriculum.
Echoing similar comments from President Bush, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist said “intelligent design” should be taught in [...]

I’ve stayed as far away from the coverage of the media-created Cindy Sheehan firestorm as I can over the past few days. The woman is obviously distraught over the death of her son, but she’s turning it into a political crusade that is becoming absurd and offensive. Now, comes this story on the Drudge Report [...]

I haven’t written about Cindy Sheehan, the mother staging a protest outside of President Bush’s Crawford ranch, mostly because I don’t really have that much to say about it. For the most part, it seems to me like a media-created sensation —- if the reporters went away, so would Mrs. Sheehan.
Over at Vodkapundit, though, Stephen [...]
