The King Has Decided Against Muslims.

Well, Sen Joe McCarthy's hearings got under way yesterday. Oops! Sorry. I mean Rep Peter King's hearings got under way yesterday. See, I got confused because of the similarities. McCarthy was looking for Communists, mostly in Hollywood, while King is looking for terrorists exclusively in Muslim families. There are differences between the two, though. I have no information that McCarthy was ever a supporter of terrorists, while King was a very vocal supporter of the Irish Republican Party. Maybe the key is the "Republican" part of the name. Though he claims the difference is that the IRA never attacked America. They did manage to kill a bunch of innocent bystanders intentionally though. Why, or how are English less human then Americans? So, how does a man who stands up for terrorists on the one hand, get to search for terrorists in a religious community, all the while completely ignoring all other sources of terrorism? For that matter, how does he get to be chairman of the Homeland Security Committee? Or how does such a person get elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in the first place? Is the Republican party so devoid of competent, qualified Representatives that they can't find anyone else to lead such an important committee? Are there no other more important issues facing America then to alienate a whole religion? I'll bet that there are several people, Republicans, on the committee who can see beyond their own personal phobias. Why is it that the Republican leadership in the House of Representatives haven't sat this bird down for an old fashioned scolding?
