THAT'S what's destroying America: People who see every fellow citien who disagrees with them as a threat to be hunted down, elect leaders who want the US Marines to help and then defend those leaders for saying so publicly. Rest assured, you're on their long list of liberals, traitors, non-Christians and commies; they just haven't gotten to you--yet. At least you've managed to admit that the guy verbally attacking the people who pay his salary was "using" his constituents to serve his own disgusting political agenda; now if we can just get you to admit how wrong that is we might start getting somewhere. Sure, you can oppose someone without attacking them solely because of their religion; maybe the GOP should disavow its Radical Republican roots and do that instead of embracing the Tea Party and its violent rhetoric.

Not that I expect it when a senior House member convenes hypocritical hearings because he says 85% of US mosques are run by terrorist sympathizers, while hoping we all forget he said killing civilians is "regrettable" but his beloved IRA isn't "morally responsible" because they're "struggl[ing]" against "imperialism". That's how bin Laden and his ilk rationalize murdering civilians, but instead of grilling Rep. King about his support for terrorism HE'S grilling Muslim Congressmen without even alleged links to terrorism, who've never publicly endorsed it the way King has. I guarantee that if Keith Ellison had family in Al Qaeda (as King had family in the IRA) we'd hear about it--Peter King would make sure. You can't simultaneously support and investigate terrorism without being a colossal hypocrite who cares less about terrorism than about it targeting the "proper" victims. Yet once again, these are the people you're so proud of putting in charge of the US House, the kind of self-serving support for violence at the expense of ones own constituents you defend, even from government leaders--as long as they have an (R) at the end of their name.
