I'm lost on that part. If you're referring to the idea that they will regress towards governmental control based on their religion, I think it does build the counter-arguement, because we haven't seen anything to support that concept.<BR/><BR/>Besides that, no one is arguing against their right to become a majority and implement their preferred form of government. <BR/><BR/>Except for Steyn and his squawkers. <BR/><BR/>Should our country become 51% Muslim, and they elect enough leaders to change our governing method, that's fine. They've played by the rules and won the game. <BR/><BR/>It's exactly what the Evangelicals are trying to do now. Breed the big families, re-create a Christian majority, and we're back on the road to a pro-Christian government that will go back to hating gays, reducing the rights of minorities and women, and fighting against the common sense approach of science vs. religion. Sounds an awful lot like what Steyn is afraid of, with a different name on the boogeyman.<BR/><BR/>In this country, Christians are no less dangerous than Muslims, Atheists are no less dangerous than Scientologists.<BR/><BR/>If you're going to worry about someday living in a Muslim-controlled state, then you must be posting from GMT+02:00 and a latitude around 23 degrees. This isn't something to think about for a couple lifetimes, if not longer.<BR/><BR/>Were you just fishing for opinions, or was this the basis for a discussion?

And by what right would one presume to deny a majority its preferred form of government?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20755638.post-90985484239302357042007-05-24T14:40:00.000-05:002007-05-24T14:40:00.000-05:00"Sean Hannity has a show with a liberal, Alan Comb..."Sean Hannity has a show with a liberal, Alan Combes. That is a good show. Sean Hannity has repeatedly said he would debate liberals."<BR/><BR/>I love it. I've been hearing righties say that for years. Do they really believe that mantra at this point, or is it part of the GOP membership rules?<BR/><BR/>"Why does he want taxes raised on people making over $200,000 a year. That is not rich."<BR/><BR/>Anony needs to compare $200,000 to the current poverty line in this nation. The current threshold for a 4 person home is $20,650. I think it's reasonable to label someone making nearly 10 times the poverty threshold at least marginally rich. As such, tax them equivalently. If they can't handle it, they shouldn't be making that much to begin with.<BR/><BR/>And with the Muslim issue, it'll be touched on too often, in too many ways, to really make any real headway at this level. There will always be the xenophobes who think everyone in a turban has C4 in his pocket. And they'll be balanced, hopefully, by those who know that the majority of the Muslim community, while not willing to take a stand and speak out against the violent tactics, are not supportive of those tactics.<BR/><BR/>To point out that the Muslim religion "explicitly claims earthly authority over government" might be correct, but until you suddenly see some sort of organized influx into the citizenship that speaks of hostile takeover by voting themselves into power to change the rules, you can't worry about it.<BR/><BR/>Plenty of Muslims already live within our borders, practice their religion, and are members of our society. For those I know, I don't see them gritting their teeth on a daily basis when they have to walk outside into our non-Muslim governed nation.will andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12267195421328310714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20755638.post-52654977242641148272007-05-24T11:26:00.000-05:002007-05-24T11:26:00.000-05:00Hi Mike -What's the deal with the fixation on race...Hi Mike -<BR/><BR/>What's the deal with the fixation on race? Steyn's book barely mentions it and I certainly didn't. Islam is a religion, not a race, and you don't have to get all the way to violent jihad to run into serious conflicts between it and western culture and values. We may have some people who have a problem with separaration of church and state, but I don't think it's wrong to say it's still a basic cultural value of western society. A religion which explicitly claims earthly authority over government is in basic conflict with this value. You may want to wish away religion, but it's a major force in the world and many people, including millions of Muslims, take it more seriously than the stuff you spend your time worrying about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20755638.post-16468499537528869012007-05-23T13:48:00.000-05:002007-05-23T13:48:00.000-05:00Aw, relax, eddypo, let's get into it..."significan...Aw, relax, eddypo, let's get into it...<BR/><BR/>"significant number of Muslim residents"...now, how many would that be? England has maybe a million out of 60 million. What, are there too many brown people on the streets? Sounds like the racist level of our immigration "discussion" in this country. "hostile to the culture and values" Sez who? Out of all Muslims in the world, what percentage support some sort of jihad? 10%? 20%? I have heard Steyn on Miller's show and it's all hysterical "they are coming to take our place" nonsense.<BR/><BR/>"this population will become a governing majority" -- really, now? How do you figure? In France (another panic center for xenophobes), the population is 4% Muslim. The healthist thing about France is that it is 31% atheist. Now, there's a country with at least one foot in reality. Where is a White European country with more than even a 5% Muslim population?<BR/><BR/>Looking at European Demographic figures in Wikipedia (with the necessary grain of Wiki salt), I can't find any European nation with any sort of Muslim population that will challenge Steyn's precious White Guys for supremecy, ever.<BR/><BR/>"The governments instituted by such a majority will likely be quite repressive by current European standards." Well, our government is "repressive by current European standards", given Gitmo, warrantless survaillance and our claimed authority to invade sovreign nations, so, what's your point?<BR/><BR/>Much of what is disturbing about the wing-nuts on these issues stems from their racist railing against reality. Guess what, guys -- whites will be a minority in the U.S. in my lifetime and non-whites are living and working peacefully in former white-guy countries all over the world. <BR/><BR/>And you know what? I like it that way. People of diversity make my life and will make the life of my son much more interesting and fufilling. All those people the imperialists used to keep down are now up and they are not going back down. Good for them and good for us.<BR/><BR/>So, deal with it, Anony.

Yes agree with prgressive tax rates, but why do they need to be higher than they are now. Why does John Edwards want them to be even higher than the Clinton years. Why does he want taxes raised on people making over $200,000 a year. That is not rich. Why dont we tax wealth in this county, lets forget about the income tax, lets tax wealth. Oh, that would hurt all of the rich-liberals in congress that are supposed to be helping the poor. John Edwards only cares about the poor to get him elected. If he really cared about the poor he will lead by example. Why does he have a multi million dollar house. If Al Gore really cared about global warming maybe he would stop ridding in a private jet, and downsize his house.<BR/><BR/>Progressive taxation is income distribution, who is getting the benefit from the liberal government programs.

Crossfire was a good example of what could happen -- and sometime happens still on cable shows like Hardball from time to time. But radio wingnuts are a different breed than the Washingon insider professionals who populated Crossfire. <BR/><BR/>You seem to have an independent voice, Anony 1, but some of your comments are based on the same phony straw men that the wing-nuts spend hours every day setting up. The being left does not mean that you believe in "higher taxes, and income [re]distribution". Certainly, we generally support a progressive tax system and that means more tax on the rich, but there is no "redistribution" that I am aware of. Likewise, the left does not regard the human cause of global warming to be "an abolute truth", but we are willing to listen to the world-wide consensus of scientists who say there is a concern and that we can do something about it. And, regarding Iraq, it is a pretty big stretch to say that, just because the Clintons thought Hussein had WMDs and was a threat, that they would have prusued the same disasterous invade-and-occupy path that the Bushies took. I trust they wouldn't have, especially after, as we learned today, Bush was warned well ahead of time that the chaos that we now face there is exactly what we should have expected. In fact, if Clinton had created the same sort of nightmare in Iraq, the wing-nuts would have been out there within a month, squawking about how horrible it was and he would have been impeached less than a year after he invaded.<BR/><BR/>The truth about Iraq, the truth about global warming, the truth about the US Attorney firings...the truth is always on our side. That's why this Bush administration is the most secretive in history. In so many areas, the truth, if known, would have brought them down years ago.<BR/><BR/>Craig: <BR/><BR/>As long as AM radio continues to be all right-wing-all-the-time, I don't care whether she was fired or not.

Unlike print or internet media, it is a government-regulated limited resource. Of course, except for naughty words, this FCC does not regulate. McBride was taken down mostly because she was lame and they wanted to get a slot for Miller. There was some public pressure about her unfunny stunt, but there always should be when public idiocy is exposed.<BR/><BR/>What's wrong with talking about how stupid it was and challenging her to defend it.

The issue was over a parody of a fake interview with Falwell about his first sexual experience. (Isn't it ironic Jessica's firing was over a fake interview). The US Supreme Court ruled public figures (including Eugene Kane - who I think is a good columnist) are not protected by parodies by journalists, cartoonists, bloggers, etc. Journal Communications should be scolded for their lack of support for Freedom of the Press, and you should be too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20755638.post-17240833177349556422007-05-21T12:07:00.000-05:002007-05-21T12:07:00.000-05:00I cannot speak for all conservatives, I only can s...I cannot speak for all conservatives, I only can speak for myself. If I am wrong I will admit it. Carter, has everyright to say what he wants. However, he was one of the worst presidents in U.S history. We had high unemployment, high interest rates and no economic growth during his term. However, he was better at foreign policy than Bush Jr. As to your point about conservatives not wanting to debate liberals, that is untrue. Sean Hannity has a show with a liberal, Alan Combes. That is a good show. Sean Hannity has repeatedly said he would debate liberals. CNN used to have a show called "crossfire" that featured a liberal and a conservaitve. I have seen numerous debates on T.V that featured debates between conservatives and liberals. My gosh, on "The View", their are liberal and 1 conservative. I cannot speak about Belling or Sykes. If they truly are not open to a debate, shame on them. They have a responsiblity to the public, since they are on the radio, to be open to debate in a fair manner. Progressives do not always have the truth on their side. Progessives distort the truth all of the time. Income inequality is the big one. <BR/><BR/>I am a conservative, because I want limited goverment, I want to spend my money how I see fit, and do not want personal freedoms taken away. I also want poverty to end, crime reduced, people to have opportunity to better their life, a fair balance between environmental protection and economic growth. I do not believe in higher taxes, and income distribution, like the left does. The federal government took in more tax money this year than ever before. Lower taxes means more economic activity. Look at global warming, the left says it is an absolute truth, if you deny it you must also think the earth is flat, or that holocaust never existed. Their are many reputable scientists who do not think that global warming is man made, but they are called idiots and are not heared from, why? Global warming is not a fact, just like global cooling in the 1970's was not a fact. <BR/><BR/>I am not going to call the left socialists, but sometimes it appears that way. What is the truth that is always on the left's side? <BR/><BR/>The one thing though that I cannot stand about Sykes or Belling, that if someone has an opposite view then him, he treats them like they are idiots and will not let them get a word in edgewise. <BR/><BR/>Regarding Iraq, maybe you should spend some time listening to some of Hillary and Bill quotes about Iraq in the past. They did not seem to think the use of force was wrong then, or that their were no WMD's.

Therefore, those holding a license could not use it like a sledgehammer to promote their political beliefs. If you are saying "there are now so many outlets with sattelite, cable and internet, who cares?", well, just listen to the squealing from wing-nuts whose unearned access to those airwaves are now questioned (but certainly not threatened -- the new Fairness Doctrine campaign has limited support in Congress, and that lack of support includes Pelosi, who you falsely say is "hot and heavy" for it). Those who have and manipulate the AM wing-nut monopoly sure care and know how powerful it is -- just ask Jessica McBride, if you can find her.<BR/><BR/>And if you haven't heard conservatives claim how right they are all the time, you just are not listening. Not only are progressives regularly accused of being "bigoted, uneducated or misinformed", we are also accused of being unpatriotic, not supporting the troops we are trying to get out of harm's way, being in league with bin Laden, and god knows what else. The wing-nut echo-chamber, when they are not making excuses for Junior Bush, do nothing but try to assasinate the charactor of anyone who disagrees with them. <BR/><BR/>Just look at what they are trying to do with Jimmy Carter today, just because he said what many others know: that, as far as foriegn policy is concerned, Bush is the worst president in U.S. history. Rather than telling us how that conclusion isn't true (they can't, because it is), they go after Carter.<BR/><BR/>Finally, a left-wing/right-wing radio show would never work because the arguments made by right-wing-nuts can't withstand scrutiny. This is why you'll never see Sykes or Belling in a situation where they have to debate anyone of substance. They stay in their studio cocoons and spin their phony webs. Given the chance, there are numerous articulate lefties who would line up to take part in something like that. But there would be no one volunteering on the other side to get on common ground and take us on.<BR/><BR/>I don't know if progressives are "always" right, but I do know that the truth is usually on our side. And, if it's one thing wing-nuts can't handle, it's the truth.Mike Plaistedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18184502941014520240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20755638.post-69959216872993157302007-05-21T09:32:00.000-05:002007-05-21T09:32:00.000-05:00I agree.

If you are rich, you call the shots. But I guess it doesn't really matter. You wouldn't catch me dead listening to WTMJ hate radio. I fully support people's right to listen to bad radio. I just can't do it.EddyPohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247807203299736285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20755638.post-8307339237830334662007-05-21T08:43:00.000-05:002007-05-21T08:43:00.000-05:00I guess you think you know better than the rest of...I guess you think you know better than the rest of us then. Typical Liberal. I love the way that you use the term, the "enemy" when speaking of the GOP, why because they have a different opinion than you. If the left is under represented as you say, then how come Air America, has not had better raitings? Because people do not want to listen to it. Why should I be forced to listen to liberal lunacy, if I do not want to. If I want to listen to right wingers all day long shouldnt I have that choice? The Fairness Doctrine is not about fairness and you know it. All what will happen is that the the radio stations will stop the political formats. Left radio does not sell. The democrats and not all bad, just the far-left liberal ones. I would say the same about the far-right conservative ones also. <BR/><BR/>The fairness doctrine was incorprated because peoples choices for media outlets were limited. Now with the internet, satelite radio, cable T.V., that is not the case. I would doubt that the fairness doctrine would even pass the legal system. I am not whinning. It is people on the left who are. Why is Nancy Pelosi so hot and heavy to reinstate the fairness doctrine, not to spread left ideas, but to shut up the right, or to limit their voice. When I was in college, all I heard was leftest speak, read most major newspapers in this country and you will get the leftest speak. The one thing that I do agree with, is that when someone speaks on the radio or the T.V, either on the left or the right, they have to speak in facts. I have listened to both Air America and the Sykes show and I have heard things that are not true, or things that are taken out of context to stir up people. I would love to hear a radio show that has both a right-wing and a left winger as hosts together. That would be more entertaining.<BR/><BR/>I respect your right to your views, even though I disagree with them. I would hope that you would respect mine. But as I have experienced for many years, if you do not agree with someone on the left you are bigoted, uneducated or misinformed, because the left is NEVER wrong. Most conservatives that I know are not that way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
