Default Re: CAIR targets Michael Savage over "anti-Muslim bigotry"

Because Imus was being racist against afro-americans, and there's a large percentage of such folks in America, in all levels of social, business, and government strata. So there was of course going to be a huge uproar over his remarks.

But Savage is hating on a really small minority of Americans [muslim americans] that are an extension of the big bad enemy "out there" and since America's at war with that big bad enemy, its more acceptable to insult such a group, even if its totally inapplicable to the group being insulted.

Its similar to when, during the Cold War, the enemy then were those damn Commies, they were everywhere, omg.

And now, its those crazy Mozlems. They're everywhere, we gotta stop them.

blah blah blah
