Grab Some Reality

On Wednesday, in a speech before the Heritage Foundation, Mass. Govenor Mitt Romney suggested the possibility of wiretapping mosques and monitoring foreign students.

As expected, Muslim groups and the Commies of the Left got their panties in a wad.
Muslim groups and civil libertarians demanded an apology from Gov. Mitt Romney on Friday for his comments about wiretapping mosques and monitoring foreign students. But the governor refused, saying he was only advocating for improved homeland security.
The groups delivered a letter to Romney that said "your desire to wiretap mosques is an affront to the values and principles that make America a great country." The groups include the American Civil Liberties Union and various mosques and Islamic organizations.
Here we have a group of people dedicated to the destruction of non-Islamic life and property. We know that suicide bombers are recruited through radical mosques. Yet we are just supposed to let them be and ignore what's going on. After all, Global George assures us that "Islam is a religion of peace."

However, let a minister of a Christian church DISCUSS politics from the pulpit, and armed IRS agents will be there the next day to close them down.

Anybody detect a problem here?
After the letter was delivered, spokesman Eric Fehrnstrom said the governor would not apologize or retract his comments.
Good for you, Gov. We need to stamp out this cancer of politically-correct speech and get back to the truth.
