It is because half of the US, like Sam, are sheeple...walking around with blinders on, being led around by their shepherds on Fox and conservative talk radio. If Rush doesn't say it happened, then it didn't happen and if anyone else says it did, then it is just liberal propaganda.

Similar efforts are happening in Utah, and several other states. Why is it that I a foreigner seems to be more aware of what is happening in the US than many of it's citizens. Other thing, a mosque under construction in Murphysboro, TN was firebombed. Hate crimes against Muslims as reported to the FBI are up significantly. And you just have to hit a few news sites, including Washingon Times, the Washingon Post, fox News, etc., to see the anti-Islamic vitriol. It's really as if the right wing really needs a demonic enemy, and since communism and socialism didn't work recently, Islam fits the bill. > I'm thinking you are trying to manufacture a non-issue.
