"What if I posted--as if it were some sort of telling omen--'Jews for [fill-in-the-blank]'? You'd jump all over me for antisemitism, and rightfully so."
Hm. I, for one, certainly don't detect any sort of an "omen" in this post. If I might suggest, it sounds like you're reading your own thoughts and concerns into this post?
1. First, I don't think there's anything wrong with posting "Muslims for Ron Paul 2012." At worst, it's just a statement of fact. There are Muslims who support RP. That's all there is to it.
2. But actually all Steve Hays did was to post a link to a Facebook page titled "Muslims for Ron Paul 2012." In other words, it's not even Steve Hays' title. Rather it's presumably the Muslims who support Ron Paul who titled their own Facebook group "Muslims for Ron Paul 2012." So if you're going to take issue with this, then might I suggest perhaps you should speak with the Muslim moderators of this group?
3. By the way, I don't think there'd be anything wrong with posting in the same way, say, "Jews for Bachmann 2012." Or "African-Americans for Obama 2012." Or "Geeks for Gingrich 2012."
Well, Jeff, I have a nefarious hidden agenda whenever I write about Ron Paul, but my superiors won't allow me to let you in on the details of the plot.
Steve, I don't really care about your bizarre anti-Ron Paul obsession. If anyone is looking to you expecting worthwhile, even-handed commentary on the Ron Paul campaign, that's their own problem.
What I do care about is your fearful, hateful campaign to paint "Muslims" (all 1.5 billion of them?) as untrustworthy, scheming, nefarious, bomb-throwing dogs.
And this demonstrates what exactly, Steve? That you're a raving, paranoid Islamophobe?
ReplyDeleteSpoken like a CAIR spokesman.
ReplyDeleteWhat you've repeatedly demonstrated is that one Quisling (Jeff) will defend another Quisling (Paul). Birds of a feather...
What if I posted--as if it were some sort of telling omen--"Jews for [fill-in-the-blank]"?
ReplyDeleteYou'd jump all over me for antisemitism, and rightfully so.

Like Jews for Jesus?

No, I don't think Moishe Rosen is antisemitic.
Well, Jeff, what about this?

If the Daily Paul can tout "non-white" support for Ron Paul, how is it "Islamophobic" for me to draw attention to his Muslim supporters?
Ok, Steve, well what exactly were you trying to demonstrate/insinuate? Simply that some of Ron Paul's supporters are Muslims? Okay...
ReplyDeleteYour point being?

Yes, you constantly express your solidarity with our mortal enemy. You keep reminding us of where your sympathies lie at every opportunity.
