Silence or Else.
Sweet!
The Council on American Islamic Relations demanded that one of the speakers at today's session of a conservative youth conference here in Washington be pulled from the lineup - and threatened the organizers with legal action if they did not comply.
CAIR accuses best-selling author and terrorism expert Robert Spencer of being a - "well-known purveyor of hatred and bigotry against Muslims." It said his session must be canceled - or he must be kept from making what it calls "false and defamatory statements."
The Young America's Foundation - which organized the conference - replied by saying - "We will not be intimidated by radical Islamic thugs ... CAIR can go to Hell and they can take their 72 virgins with them."
Spencer did go on as scheduled this afternoon.
More conservatives need to emulate that behavior.
Speaking of Islam, I am no fan of Christopher Hitchens, but watching him and Dennis Prager tear apart the spokesperson for CAIR while discussing "Islamophobia" and the Koran in the toilet episode is hysterical.

I was mildly interested in checking out Mad Men on AMC. Now my interest is truly peaked.
For scifi fans, the show also features Saffron from Firefly. *shudder*
I knew the "ethics reform passed by Dems was too good to be true.
While Beijing uses cheap energy to build economic superpower, Democrats in Washington fight to lock ours up.
in a global economy defined more by relativity than proximity, the growing perception that we no longer have the horses to compete in the long-term has led investors to shift their capital abroad at the expense of investing in worthy projects here in the United States.
Who can blame them? The Chinese energy sector will add 40 new nuclear plants to their infrastructure in just the next 15 years - and 562 coal-fired plants in less than half that time. They’ve increased offshore energy production to reduce their own dependence on foreign oil, growing that sector by an average of 15.3 percent a year. And they’ve invested $24 billion in large-scale coal liquefaction technology - at a time when Democrats in the Congress successfully banished from their so-called “energy bill” a modest coal-to-liquid pilot project of our own.
What is the U.S. doing on those fronts? You know that answer. Oh, we'll have plenty of windmills as China becomes the only world power in a few decades. Our liberals will feel very good about themselves while they blame national poverty on Republicans.
