Oh, it couldn't have happened to a crummier guy. The great GOP representative from Littleton, CO is still in it, with another article about his appalling idea of "nuking Mecca" to deal with the small drop of extremists Muslims in the world.
You can read the whole thing over at Rocky Mountain News here, though I'll share "King Tancredo's" judgment of the world:
Tancredo has refused calls to apologize or resign, saying he was speaking hypothetically and that he does not advocate taking such a "draconian" action.
He has rejected calls to meet with The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), which was among the first groups to criticize the remarks.
However, Tancredo has agreed to meet with Muslim leaders he considers more moderate.
I think its Mr. Tancredo who needs to be schooled it what it means to be
sane, much less moderate.
