What? Fox advocating something that will only help the conservatives? No...ugh. FOX Journalists are not..journalists. They are PR people charged with meting out FOX's idea of the news.

He has a lot of references in line for his stance, I like his choice of words.

What Islam needs is a reformation. Islam is no better or worse than any other religion. But it has yet to have a reformation like Christianity has.

Its ok, regular regurgitation of already known information. Unfortunately the Politicians are not going to get anything done till Obama is out of office..this whole country is just going to have to wait till there is a white man in office again so people can go back to church and pray to God again instead of praying for the President's death..

This is not good Journalism it feels like a rant from a very angry person, the personal comments aside there is very little if any contextual information given. Completely and totally one sided. Reads more a Republican mantra than an article that should appear in Forbes. My opinion of Forbes needs to be reconsidered I think.

No, all info comes from one source and no cross checking of facts was done.

Fair amount of sources quoted, accurate information based on those sources, no soap boxing..

I know for a fact that religion helps harbor racism and class-ism..I have seen it for myself while growing up and going to many different churches as a child.

How can they be racist? Aren't most conservatives white? Don't you have to be white to be conservative? ;-)

It is talking about what no one wants to talk about which is that the unemployment rate in this country will always be above 10% now. Always..think about that..what it is going to do to us..not good.
