Basic point was Bush saying "Islamic fascists" and some Counsil for American-Islamic Relations attacks the commentator.

And they shouldn't complain, because Muslims, in your view, were the ones "always blowing sh*t up"? In other words, it's okay to group Muslims together and villify them as a group?
Taking pleasure in the death of others is something you're proud of? That's not the earkmark of the peace-loving society that America is. Just out of curiosity, do you know any Muslims? What is your basis for hating 1 out of 6 people in the world?
As an aside, I noticed you've changed your hometown - somewhat childish, in my humble opinion.
And finally, its interesting that you've assumed I'm Muslim, because I'm not. I'm Hindu. Which is pretty much beside the point. My religious beliefs or non-beliefs are irrelevant to any argument I've made.
Personally I have more then a few friends who have come and gone and gone back to Iraq and Afghanistan. When you're getting shot at and your vehicle blown up by poon-tangs that hide in houses, you let me know if you aren't happy when you finally get them. You know, after you watch your friends intestines spill out in a troop carrier.[/quote]
Is hating Muslims as a result of that an understandable emotional response? Sure. Is it a valid, rational response? No.
