But He's Right

From the Chicago Sun Times: U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh remains steadfast in his conviction that “radical Islam” threatens the American way of life — a view the controversial congressman again expressed to an unhappy group of Muslim constituents Friday night. 

Moon Khan, a Republican Party precinct committeeman in DuPage County and member of the York Township board of trustees, was one of about 80 people who attended an “intense” meeting with Walsh Friday night in the back yard of Khan’s home in Lombard.

“It was a very, very intense meeting, and he did not change his mind,” Khan later said of Walsh.

The meeting was called after Walsh alleged there is “a radical stream of Islam” in the U.S. that threatens the lives of Americans — including residents of Addison, Elgin and Elk Grove — at a townhall meeting in Elk Grove.  http://www.suntimes.com/news/14708440-418/walsh-wont-apologize-for-saying-radical-islamists-in-us-want-to-kill-americans.html

Anybody who says there are not Muslims in the United States who want to do us harm is either a complete idiot or has been asleep since Sept. 10, 2001.

Are there a lot of Muslim in the U.S. who want to do us harm- no.

Are there some Muslims in the U.S. who want to do us harm?  Of course.

But the Muslims at the meeting with the congressman were not there to condemn the terrorists, they were there to abuse the messenger.  It would be one thing if the vast majority of Muslims in the U.S. condemn Islamic terrorism here int he U.S. and worldwide, but they don't- they would rather go after the messengers, like Rep. Joe Walsh.

So, thank you to Rep. Joe Walsh for telling the truth.
