Will they do the same for Republican Congressman and Giuliani adviser Peter King?
A homeland security adviser to Rudy Giuliani came under fire Thursday for claiming there were “too many mosques” in the United States — and defended himself by saying his point was that not enough Muslim leaders cooperate with law enforcement.
Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., the former chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee and the top GOP member on the panel, said his comments to the Politico Web site were taken out of context. Democrats said Giuliani should drop him as a campaign adviser.
“I stand by everything I said other than the fact that the Politico totally took it out of context,” King said Thursday.
So a member of the United States Congress insults an entire group of our population based upon religion. The Senate should take up a resolution immediately to condemn this statement since they have this new precedent now. Or is it that Petraeus is such a thin skinned individual that he is the only one who deserves such pampering?
