Here's a little sample of the racist, ignorant bigotry of the right wing which propels the GOP to success in Colorado, and other places, with a LTE from
George Gatchis of Auroa in the Rocky Mountain News:
(sorry, I couldn't fit it in the main text area, so join me on the flip)
Bravo, Rep. Tancredo, for your courage
I applaud Rep. Tom Tancredo for having the guts to drop this politically correct nonsense. Do people really believe that terrorists understand anything else but violence? These so-called Islamic schools are breeding grounds for terrorists plain and simple! They use them as safe havens to teach hate and discontent toward America and its allies.
There are two kinds of people in this world. The first kind will punch back if punched, the second will get punched, and say, "Thank you. May I have another?" The second group is the kind the terrorists feed on. Do I need to bring up Spain?
For those who think Tancredo's statements made the Muslim communities hate us even more, here's some surprising news: They already hated us to begin with! Regardless of how hard we try to support Muslim countries with financial support, massive food shipments, medical shipments, etc., they will still hate us because we are Americans.

Here's to ignorant racism, the staple of the GOP in Colorado and across America!
