The ideological sickness of pc obsession

"It Can't Be?" [Victor Davis Hanson] (via NRO):

"Is the following AP story made up, a parody, or a terrible error?

"Homeland chief warns against anti-Muslim backlash
(AP) – 21 hours ago

"ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — The U.S. Homeland Security secretary says she is working to prevent a possible wave of anti-Muslim sentiment after the shootings at Fort Hood in Texas.

"Janet Napolitano says her agency is working with groups across the United States to try to deflect any backlash against American Muslims following Thursday's rampage by Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim who reportedly expressed growing dismay over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

"The shootings left 13 people dead and 29 wounded."

VDH: "One wonders whether Major Hasan — temporarily on sick leave — will return to his old quasi-official advisory role about our nation's security as a panelist for the Presidential Transition Task Force. Would now removing him from such future responsibilities be considered Islamaphobic?"
