#2 The OIC is now attempting to have a key U.N. panel amend an existing international treaty to encompass supposedly religiously defamatory speech.

You idiots are just shooting yourselves in the a$$.

#4 I guess this means every time a muslim calls for death to infidels or call them pigs and monkeys that a cruise missile of justice will be on the way. Right Barack?

#5 Your "holy book" defames my religion. Does that count? I thought not.

#6 Okee dokee. How about this....you can move to an Islamic paradise like Saudi Arabia instead of having to deal with all the icky infidels in Europe, North America, Australia, etc.

Then, not only can you pass all the "blasphemy" laws you like, you don't have to worry much about your wimmen gettin' uppity and demanding things like basic human rights.

Meanwhile, I'll just stay here in the West, eating pork BBQ, washing it down with an occasional, and wearing shorts.....and I promise to not say anything about how backward, medieval, and generally unappealing your society is to the rest of the world. I'll even stop sexually insulting your "mighty swords of Allah" and some of your co-religionists inability to deal with female desires for gratification. Deal?

#7 Oops...I meant "washing it down with an occasional beer or margarita". Should not post without caffeine.

#8 So, you're ready to have all those comments defaming the Jews by your community apply against yourselves as well? /rhet question.

#9 P2K, you missed the spot where they redefine religion as Islam and only Islam. Any other "religion" is therefore, ipso facto, a defamation and all adherents put to death.

#10 The way I see it they are trying to redefine Islam as a RACE and not a Religion (or Political movement).

#12 I hope this passes, you guys in the U.S. are then in a constitutional conundrum: remove the first amendment, or leave the U.N.

#13 BP, easy choice for most of us at the Burg ...

#14 Steve, I'm afraid that it would also be an easy choice for most of the Washington clique also...and not the same choice.

#15 Indeed: a very easy choice.

#16 Please, Barack, give us an excuse to impeach you in 2011. Sign a UN treaty which gives away ironclad First Amendment protections to a transnational Islamist lynch mob.

#17 Mitch, would there be the votes to impeach?

#18 James, I'm sure there would be enough "votes" to overturn anything O'Bumble does. They just may not be paper ballots, that's all.

#19 It would be an easy choice, even for those in Washington because they know they'd never survive the next election and as corrupt as they are they have keen survival instincts (notice the lackluster support for Obamacare)
