When the ideas of the left come into view, the themes often include the closing of Guantanamo, attacks on the Patriot Act, opposition to military recruitment on campuses, casual mockery of patriotism and a failure to admit that defeating terrorism will require some tradeoffs between security and civil liberties.

Interesting read.
Meanwhile, Islamofascists are preparing to kill more London commuters.
8/22/05 — Michael Graham was fired.
—————————————————————————–
Michael Graham’s instincts were correct. He was suspended for calling Islam a terror organization. As long as the radio station isn’t run by the government, WMAL is within its rights to can him, as weak-willed as it may be.
Read the column that started it all.
Michael and I chatted briefly at the Conservative Political Action Conference in February, and I was impressed that he knew who was. He’ll emerge from this wiser, bolder, and richer. Can’t wait for his book.
I support you 100 percent, Michael.
Contact WMAL and tell them what you think.

Update: A commenter says his e-mail to WMAL bounced back. Use this contact form. The switchboard telephone number is 202-686-3100, programming is 202-895-2327.
Update II (7/30): Michael Graham speaks.
Update III (7/31): Attention new readers and commenters: Please read the comment policy. I blame the fundamental misunderstanding of the First Amendment on our shoddy government schools.
When they’re not leaving phony comments attributed to me on other blogs, this is what they do.
Update (6:25 p.m.): Meanwhile…I’m taking the weekend off to get my thoughts together for this conference. As I begin to speak at more conferences, generate more publicity, and publish that first book, I suspect more lonely, anonymous slobs will scamper from under their damp and filthy rocks to see what La Shawn Barber does next.
Obsession is not good for the soul.
Update II (7/31): The revolution will be televised.
