Imam/Not An Imam
Michelle Malkin has the whole deal on the New York City imam hired by the FDNY as their Muslim chaplain, then fired on the same day for demonstrably being a moonbat. What I find interesting about the whole affair is that the guy was nominated to the position by the Fire Department's own Islamic Society. Does that bother anyone else?
"He's a good man," said Hakim Braxton, president of the Islamic Society. "Any statements he's made, he's responsible for ... But I would ask that the citizens of this city give him a chance and judge him on his actions." I guess when your actions include mouthing conspiracy theories so as to deflect criticism from terrorists who murdered thousands in New York, judgement comes swiftly.
Interesting story on a day that has the left's collective hair aflame (oh how I wish some days) over Bill Bennett's harmless musings.
