Radical Islam v Radical Christianity/ GOP Shoutfest v Enlightened Intelligent Debate

Brian Zick

Jennifer L Pozner, from Women In Media & News, appeared on Joe Scarborough's show two nights in a row - September 13 and September 14 - and aggravated Scarborough because she wouldn't agree with his outrage over Rosie O'Donnell's recent comparison of radical Islam with radical Christianity. Rachel Sklar appeared on the second show, along with GOP mouth Jack Burkman. Scarborough wanted to limit comparisons to body counts resulting from radical terrorist activity, and ignore similarity of motivational underpinnings, in order to make O'Donnell's remarks appear beyond the pale. He insisted that radical Islam poses an infinitely greater threat to Americans than radical Christianity, and he hated it when Pozner kept pointing to the daily threats against women from radical Christians who've bombed women's health care facilities. via Tracy Van Slyke Personally, I think Jack Burkman poses a pretty significant daily threat to teenage female Americans with his radical sexist pigism.
