Politicians?

Donovan,

I agree with you. Except, leaving it to politicians to reject Islam is not the solution. The politicians have proven themselves ineffective when it comes to decisions like that. Just look at the illegal immigration problem. Instead, massive grassroots movements need to rise, akin to the civil rights movements of the 60's. When enormous rallies happen daily, perhaps our lawmakers will get the point. Unfortunately, the only ones who are amassing that many people to their cause are those who have time on their hands. We, the normal, right thinking people are too busy going to work and taking care of our families. So we need to try harder. We need to make the time, and put in extra effort into sending our message message. As the saying goes, the squeaky wheel gets the oil.

Right now, the blind left is squeaking much louder than we are. It is their message that gets across. We need to change that as soon as possible. The blogosphere is a good start.
