That, sir, is the core of the debate as I and many in the country see the current situation. And whatever happens in this election the issue, disturbingly, will not be settled.

The one thing you would have going for you up there in those Harvard precincts (Massachusetts being my native state) is that you are (presumably!) a Red Sox fan.

Such a choice means a lifetime of serious thinking about how things came to be.

Thanks for writing.

KUO BONO?
Re: Joseph M. Knippenberg's Crunchy Kuo:

I watched the Kuo piece on 60 Minutes Sunday night with the little voice in the back of my head saying, "There's something very important you're not being told here." I have followed the reaction to the piece this week and, finally, today (Thursday) your Joseph M. Knippenberg's piece provides the missing piece when he writes, "...someone who once campaigned for and interned with the Kennedys." What gets me is I could swear they (60 Minutes) were pushing him as a disaffected conservative -- as though he really could be that with such a background.

Thanks for scratching the itch.

After reading this article and watching David Kuo on 60 Minutes, I have to say he is one creepy man. As a Christian conservative, I prefer more assertive men who stand up for what they believe rather than taking notes for a "back-stabbing book." The prissy Mr. Kuo joins the prissy Jim Baker in regarding politics as way too dirty for their lily-white hands. Go home, David, we need real men around here who will stand tall with our party and our President.

May I ask one question? Who among us hasn't rolled their eyes at some whacked out pronouncement by Pat Robertson?

Nice to see the Spectator continues the fine traditions of journalism established in the David Brock days.

DOMESTIC CRUSADES
Re: Hal G.P. Colebatch's The Battle for Britistan:

Bravo! Basically, we have no Christian or civic responsibility to extend special privileges to Muslims anywhere. We owe them nothing beyond requiring them to abide strictly by the Laws of our respective Lands, and to otherwise respect and reverence traditional Anglosphere norms and values. Additionally, now is the right time for the Anglo-Catholic Church to reassert itself as the premiere and foundational apostle of our enlightened, liberal, and Christian civilization.

Very interesting article expressing eloquently the mass astonishment which I sense most of us now feel towards a totally unbalanced tolerance of Islamic extremism (or at best Islamic militancy).

When is something going to be done in this country to readdress this misbalance, and by whom? When is the government going to get in tune with what the vast majority in the country feel as so clearly reflected across the country's media?

Perhaps we should import some British and Australian liberals to this country to teach ours about minimal standards. As everyone knows our liberals tolerate everything (Ms. Pelosi marching with the head of cult of pederasts; their heroine Cindy, smiling mindlessly, piggybacking the midget dictator of Venezuela), and so are completely unable to STAND for anything. In fact our liberals are against everything American: Christianity; morals, honor and love of and service to, country.
