Tool

Buried in the news from last week was the fact that the state of Minnesota bravely electing to Congress a guy named Keith Ellison who is not only a democrat but a Muslim. Good for them. Browsing around the Internet tonight I saw that CNN's Glenn Beck interviewed him yesterday and started off the interview with: "I have been nervous about this interview with you, because what I feel like saying is, 'Sir, prove to me that you are not working with our enemies.' " Beck added: "I'm not accusing you of being an enemy, but that's the way I feel, and I think a lot of Americans will feel that way." Is Beck from around here?
