Yes, of course the supporters will be the ones attacked by the terrorists.

Oh, I bet Al-Jazeera will play it straight for the most part, especially in its early days here. There will be well-financed journalism to give them a veneer of respectability on a variety of topics. After a while, and at an increasing rate, they’ll start slipping in the Muslim sympathy viewpoint. It will be insidious.

“Blue Staters Trust Al Jazeera America More Than Red Staters”

People in the Blue States trust Al Jizz more than they trust their fellow American citizens in the Red States?

Now the question becomes, who do you trust more? Al Jazeera or MSNBC?

I’m very disappointed by my fellow Texans, we should be sitting at 0%. Must be Austin contaminating the numbers.

Al Jazeera is here because we have millions and millions of Muslims here, plain and simple. That plus the fact that liberals are predisposed to intake horseshit dogma of that kind eagerly, as long as they can blame it all on Bush or some Republican.

Blue-state women will not have an issue with converting and donning a burqa, either.

Stop accepting Orwellian double talk. States that lean democrat are Red and states where traditional Americans live are blue states. Red — Marxism/Communism. Blue - True blue, loyal to the Constitution.

Anyhow, if you dig in more closely to the survey data, you will see that Google Chrome users tend to be very gullible, apparently.
