Sept. 9, 2008 | John McCain announced that he was running for president to confront the "transcendent challenge" of the 21st century, "radical Islamic extremism," contrasting it with "stability, tolerance and democracy." But the values of his handpicked running mate, Sarah Palin, more resemble those of Muslim fundamentalists than they do those of the Founding Fathers. On censorship, the teaching of creationism in schools, reproductive rights, attributing government policy to God's will and climate change, Palin agrees with Hamas and Saudi Arabia rather than supporting tolerance and democratic precepts. What is the difference between Palin and a Muslim fundamentalist? Lipstick.
McCain pledged to work for peace based on "the transformative ideals on which we were founded." Tolerance and democracy require freedom of speech and the press, but while mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, Palin inquired of the local librarian how to go about banning books that some of her constituents thought contained inappropriate language. She tried to fire the librarian for defying her. Book banning is common to fundamentalisms around the world, and the mind-set Palin displayed did not differ from that of the Hamas minister of education in the Palestinian government who banned a book of Palestinian folk tales for its sexually explicit language. In contrast, Thomas Jefferson wrote, "Our liberty cannot be guarded but by the freedom of the press, nor that be limited without danger of losing it."

They’re coming unglued.
Google “Juan Cole” for the background on this scumbag.
Wild. The librarian insists she can’t remember any such thing, but this author’s going to lie anyway and base his whole rant on the lie.
Where do they find these jokers that are willing to lie straight up?
The gutter?
Our liberty cannot be guarded but by the freedom of the press
Tell that to C->BS for banning John McCain's ad responding to Obama's lipstick crack.
What the liberals and their minions in TV, MSM still don't get is that information is NOT a one-way communication any longer. We, the people, can and will respond to their BS.
And, I see nothing wrong with parents (Sarah is one.) censoring the reading material, movies, and TV their children encounter because most of it is garbage these days anyway.
A university.
Fundamentalist Christians give you a Bible tract. To save your eternal soul for Jesus in Heaven. Wrapped with Faith and Love.
Fundamentalist islamics give you a C4 explosion. To kill your body for 72 non-existent virgins. Wrapped with ball bearings and nails.
Fundamentalist Christians want to give you a Cross on a chain for around your neck to publicly show your Faith in Jesus Christ.
Fundamentalist islamics want to cut your head off your neck to show your head as a trophy for allah.
Fundamentalist Christians forgive their daughters for making a mistake and move forward in the Grace of the God of Israel.
Fundamentalist islamics beat and murder their daughters for making a mistake and shaming the family; all to make allah happy.
These teensy-weensy differences apparently represent concepts difficult for them to comprehend.
What’s the difference between Juan Cole and dog crap? People try to avoid stepping on dog crap.
Wow, how many far out articles this AM...McCain/Palin is driving them crazy and they parade their insanity for all the world to read (not that it’s doing one bit of good, I mean who reads Salon other than left wingers.)
Note that Juan Cole is dealing with the Daily Kos fantasy image of Sarah Palin rather than her actual record. Sarah Palin has never advocated or advanced censorship, teaching of crationism in schools or restrictions on abortion. She has never attributed government policy to God's will, but rather has prayed that government policy reflect God's will, which is a pretty mainstream position, when you think about it. Only a Democrat could hope otherwise. And as far as Global Warming is concerned, Sarah Palin seems to be woefully middle-of-the-road on that score as well.
The Democrats are running against a woman who doesn't exist.
Well, I'm sure that Governor Palin will be surpirsed to learn from this piece that she wears a burqua, lets Todd beat her senseless at will, prays toward Mecca five times a day, regularly beheads Christians and Jews as entertainment, and has a closet full of suicide bomb vests for her jihad in Wasilla and Juneau.
(sigh!)
Holy cow!
Lib TV talking heads are beside themselves. They can read the writing on the wall, and it’s not good. They must have a plan B. besides getting Bill and Hill out on the hustings. That’s old. Let’s see, Obama was on Letterman. Who cares. Small town America’s asleep by then and didn’t see it, they have to get up early to make this country work. Plus, if lucky enough to get the chance, they’re lining up to see Sarah.
Goebbels had a better tailor.
Frank Beckmann of WJR in Detroit interviewed him on Tuesday and he showed himself to be a raving, hyper-excited wacko.
Sounds like a lesson on who is a muslim whacko is in order, send him to one of the stans, and give him a lesson up close and personal. it seems these folks can’t think past their noses and certainly have dreams of granduer of having a big article wheteher its true or not, hey that sounds like the liar Mo hamm mad. Hmmm similarities between muslim whackjobs and writer of the article seem to be brewing.
These guys all look alike.
The Obam_Ahh train has left the tracks!
By Golly, Jeepers Creepers.
I do hope these dopes keep this up.
Keep up comparing all Governors to Pontius Pilate.
Keep on comparing Jesus Christ to Barack Obama.
Keep on comparing God-fearing Christians to Muslim fundamentalists - especially a good one since he compared the Palins to that group. Did Sarah and Todd take Bristol out in the middle of the night and honor kill her?
Keep on having Barack Obama claim that maybe the terrorists who attacked us 7 years ago had some fundamental reasons to hate us.
Yikes! These folks actually think we should elect them to lead us in the 21st century??
I caught that interview too. So comforting to know he is filling those minds of mush with this kind of garbage up there at UofM....
Every time an American woman puts on lipstick she will remember Obama’s comment.
Q: What do radical feminists, radical Islamists, Black panthers, anti-war radicals, and Barack Obama have in common?
A: They all have been comfortable calling people, “pigs.”
"...The question is whether Web-log commentary helps or damages an academic's career. It is a shameful question. Intellectuals should not be worrying about "careers," the tenured among us least of all. Despite the First Amendment, which only really protects one from the government, most Americans who speak out can face sanctions from other institutions in society. Journalists are fired all the time for taking the wrong political stance. That is why most bloggers employed in the private sector are anonymous or started out trying to be so..."
Even though the tone of this statement seems to be taking the contrary viewpoint, it is easy enough to see he IS one of these dumbass Ivory Tower intellectuals who think people paying for a college education or watching a newscast should, as a reward, be forced to swallow his anti-American and liberal intellectual pap because he views his job as a podium from which to trumpet his asinine views. Kind of like a member of the Dixie Chicks teaching at an Ivy League college.
His phrase "...most Americans who speak out can face sanctions from other institutions in society..." speaks volumes about him.
News flash, you moron. Even us rubes in Middle America know that there is freedom of speech carries responsibilities, but does not protect us from the freedom of others not to have to pay your stupid salary to be forced to listen to your garbage.
This is another case of the utter arrogance of liberalism.
He's been pimping Islam for ages
He is tenured at Michigan
He slanders Israel on a regular basis.
His office is in a building endowed by the (Jewish) Tisch family
Professor of History
1029 Tisch Hall
University of Michigan
Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1003
You forgot, of course, the Manson Gang.
The’re scared bigtime. I can smell Juan’s fear from here, and actually it smells GOOD!
This idiot, and all those like him, are really saying: “What’s the difference between good and evil? Lipstick.”
Moral relevance has so neutered their minds that their intelligence is completely impotent.
Well, this was the goal of the Frankfurt School.
Autumn ... when the nuts start to fall from the trees
Cheers!
.......These guys all look alike......
They look like their women.
De De Meyers was made up to look like this for appearances on TV during the convention.
A little lipstick would help to tell the females from the males (there are no men or women)
“Thomas Jefferson wrote, “Our liberty cannot be guarded but by the freedom of the press, nor that be limited without danger of losing it.””
Freedom of the press is often hid behind by those who mistakenly believe they have been endowed with unchallengeable wisdom, and an unquestionable right to snipe at those with whom they disagree. Thank God we still have the right to fire back.
Sarah Palin is the litmus paper that exposes the liberals as the barking moonbats we’ve always known they are. Put this assclown on the front pages of the papers, we need to show the mushy middle just what’s at stake in this election.
Pretty much. Not that there's much holy about him.
Good summary.
This wanna-be schmuck has to lie to gain attention. He will only gain the support or credibility from of a few thousand radical Sociocoms. They are so full of themselves in their self righteous grandiosity.
They will die here in this world and their spirits will go out as a puff of smoke from a dying fire.
What better way to make sure that the vast majority of Americans who are Christian turn their backs on the media?
