Hey, Ed, you're not calling Foreman a weasel, are you?

No, I'm not assuming he's intentional about this. It looks more like one of
those blind spots and denials that are characteristic of traditional
conservatives.

Let's see... he started by implying that he wasn't being
disrespectful, and was only joking. Then for some bizarre reason he
decided it would help his case to proclaim that he considers all
Muslims his enemy, and guilty until *they* prove to his satisfaction
that they're innocent, as if such a thing were possible. Much like the
birthers, he continues to ignore every fact, and every logical
question put to him if they hurt his case. That spells willful weasel
to me.

Here's a prediction you can take to the bank - the only thing that
will make Foreman happy is if he reads that the project costs have
been run up, or that making peaceful use of the center has become
difficult. And if for example, rogue construction workers sabotage the
construction etc, he'll call that "fieldcraft".

I wish he could live the predictable consequences of his fear
mongering. Something along the lines of what that community center is
likely to face as a result of the ginned-up controversy. They may need
bodyguards for their staff, and anti-terrorist features added to the
construction. No matter how they proceed, they're going to be paying a
high price for the free speech rights of the ignorant.
