The war on the constitution

"What Republicans are really declaring war on is "political correctness." They're sure that liberal sensitivities about Islam are hindering the moral clarity America needs to win. Just don't ask them how."

You didn't ask, but I will tell you. Our freedom of speech is essential to our freedom, and ultimately our lives. Liberals who are sensitive to Islam, are what used to be called "fellow travelers". Any US citizens who give aid or comfort to the people of Islam who are attacking us, are domestic enemies of the United States. Those people of Islam, who give aid and comfort to the active fighters are also our enemies, and unless all of Islam at least attempts to suppress those fighters, there is no evidence they are not our enemies.

To be prudent, we must keep all of Islam at an arms length. There is no reason to refraining from insult to Islam, and a practical reason to insult them. That is to identify and thwart those easily led to violence, and deal with them.
