Another example of disingenuous Liberalism

Reader comment on item: PBS, Recruiting for Islam

I agree wholeheartedly with Mr. Pipes. This is just another example of a seemingly endless stream of dishonest, insidious reporting from the left wing element in the American media. This self loathing by university educated liberals in the media is really astonishing. The apparent hate of their own European-Judeo Christian heritage seems to know no bounds. It's what I like to call "Rich white boy guilt". But this is really, as Daniel wrote, more about government funding of religous propaganda.

The effort was made before to attempt to stop the flow of tax dollars to so called "arts" beneficiaries like PBS. It wasn't entirely successful, but some progress was made. Attention again needs to be called to this issue. Liberals have no tolerance for any public display or mention of the Chrisitan faith. They protest long and loud whenever there is any appearance of government help to Christian organizations. If they really honestly feel that separation of Church and State is an inalienable right, then let the same standard apply to all. Thankfully there are still some people like Mr. Pipes, who still call a spade, a spade.
