The “Progressive” Left, Democrats, and the Mainstream Media (WOW! A triple redundancy) are all condemning “Pamela Geller, the incendiary organizer of Texas ‘prophet Muhammad cartoon contest’” as the Washington comPost headline asserted. They deem it an outrage that she would intentionally blaspheme Islam, the religion of Peace (or pieces to be accurate) by sponsoring a contest to caricature Muhammad, Peace be Unto Him.

They are unfamiliar with, and regularly choose to denigrate our Constitution, the document assuring the RIGHT of Ms. Geller to speak and publish even ideas or images found objectionable by some. In fact, they celebrated “Piss Christ” by alleged artist, Andres Serrano, and other works that disgust many Christians and other sentient beings . . . and for which no one was killed or even threatened.

So, I ask you my Left-leaning friends: If we are to be respectful of Islam and accept the consequences prescribed in Sharia for offending the Prophet Muhammad, will you declare your support for the stoning to death of adulterers, the beheading or throwing from high-rise roof tops homosexuals, and the general subjugation of women to the service of men, their masters?

Of course you won’t because if you didn’t have double standards, you’d have no standards at all.
