I like to say there is a radical fringe in America, both on the right and the left and the rest of America falls along a spectrum somewhere in the middle. I like to say that. Now, I'm not too sure. Bill Maher mentioned something on tonight's Larry King show and I thought he was joking, until I googled it and found it was true. Here it is: half of the Republicans in this country believe that Pres. Obama "sympathizes with the goals of Islamic fundamentalists who want to impose Islamic law around the world." Link

First i would like would like to congratulate you on getting the poll question correct. Something that Newsweek failed to do.

But you need to closely examine the question asked. It is very likely true that the President sympathizes with the Imam whose goal it is to build a mosque at Ground zero. A fundementalist Imam who also has a goal to establish sharia law in this country. It is also almost certain that the President also sympathizes with some of the goals of Hamas and Hezbolla vis-a-vis Israel and a Palastinian State. It is also likely that these terrorist organizations have as a goal universal imposition of Islamic Law. The question isn't asking if the President believes that Sharia should be imposed worldwide it is asking if the President sympathizes with some goals that fundamentalist Muslims have. The answer to the latter is a definite yes in my opinion, but I do not believe that the President wants Islamic Law in this country.
