The Republican party has won elections on wedge issues for decades. I well recall the robo call to the everyone here in Ohio from the Secretary of State on the eve of the 2004 election to be afraid of gays. He then ran for Governor.
The wedge issue to win this next election is the war with Islam. Do the Republicans care that a crazy preacher in Florida, and their political policy is harming our foreign relations? It is stupid to even ask the question because that faction does not care about America, it only cares about power.
Juan Cole's column shows that the attack on 9/11 violated Islam law. He is a noted Middle East Professor at the University of Michigan.
Citizenship is a joke when when propaganda from the corporate media wins the day.

Final thought is that the election here in Ohio in 2004 was stolen. Richard Hays Phillips spent 3 years of his life in "Witness To A Crime: A Citizens Audit of An American Election." You can find him on the web.
