   edcole, well, so far - so good …I visited the comments section here with a touch of trepidation and curiosity as to how this cartoon would be ‘received’ by our defenders of liberty and christianity (the afore mentioned trolls) but , so far, not much. maybe they are gathering their wits or are still trying to shake off the shock and indignation of being assaulted when all they had in mind was truth, justice and the american way. I’m sure that in time our expectations will be realized. after all, SOMEbody has to defend denying health care cost to the first responders and shifting the reason for invading Iraq from WMD’s to freeing Iraqis from oppression (with a straight face, no less!) and christian leaders blaming 911 on ‘immorality’ and anti-christian groups (send in your pledge of $100 or more so we can continue our ministry) and that the entire muslim world is responsible for the actions of a few

   Is Nighthawks mocking truth, justice, and the American way? I hope not.

   As a frequent defender of liberty here, I would state that I loathe Christianity and Islam equally. But at least Christianity was de-fanged by the Enlightenment and the Constitution, while Islam, at least where Sharia rules, is as backwards – and dangerous – as Christianity was during the Dark Ages.

   I’m still waiting to hear unqualified condemnation of the crimes of fanatical Islam from more than a handful of Muslims. The silence has been deafening.

    I totally find it amazing that people go on and on about freedom of speech and religion. Then attempt to deny the Muslims the same rights they demand for themselves.

    I also agree with pschearer about Islam. The fact that votaries of the religion mix the government with the religion will always lead to situations like in Iran. Where to be against the government is the be against God or so say the leaders. That and the appaling lack of tolerance built into the Islam makes the entire religion an anathema to me personally

    To those who believe that Christianity is somewhat more tolerant or ‘safe’ than Islam, I respectfully ask you get the opinion of Dr. Tiller on the matter.

    C’mon, be serious people.

    Those who believe in our Constitution; You have nothing to say.

    Those who want their fundie christian beliefs to trump our Constitution: You have no argument.

    Which are you?

    even as liberal as I am I still believe that the only good wahabi is a Custer style Indian wahabi (go look it up in google)

    The Republicans who took down the bill to provide health care benefits to 9-11 first responders because it was paid for by closing a tax loophole for foreign corporations should be ashamed.

    And, the Democrats who used a procedure that blocks amendments to bills, but requires a 2/3 majority should be ashamed for their cowardice and willingness to put political considerations above principal.

    I agree with John Stewart: I give up. http://www.thedailyshow.com/watch/wed-august-4-2010/i-give-up—9-11-responders-bill?xrs=eml_tds
