Rush Limbaugh speaks at a Boy Scouts Dinner honoring Fox News CEO Roger Ailes.
Rush Limbaugh once said, “Words mean things.”
Sometimes, however, they are more than “just words”…

Off-topic: Quote of the Day
Jefferson sentenced to 13 years in freezer cash case
At the sentencing, U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis said “there must be some sort of greed virus that infects those in power,” referring to other politicians serving prison sentences
Hilarious! Ellis refers to a “greed virus”, but I would prefer to refer to it as the “power corruption virus” or PCV, not to be confused with the “political correctness virus”, which is just as virulent and just as lethal.
Re the Rush video: I have to echo what the man says about the Scouts. I was in the scouts for the whole 7 years, and made it to Eagle Scout just before I turned 18. It definitely had an effect on the kind of person I am and my bond with my father.
Oh, and at the risk of your wrath, Bob, I came across a review of a book I’m going to look for today: Samir Khalil Samir’s 111 Questions on Islam.
The reviewer wrote, in part: “I found the book rather frightening in its honest and direct presentation of what Islam does, holds, and seeks, of what it does when it conquers, and of the intensity of its beliefs, which in so many ways are so ill-founded. Basically, if it could, Islam would convert the world, one way or another, by peace or by war, as precisely the “will” of Allah. It really has little place for anything else, except when Islam cannot prevent its presence. (…) The voluntarism of Islamic thought enables it, apparently, to justify means of advancement that are by any reasonable or democratic standard immoral.”

Oh, I should add that I DO appreciate the Alhambra, the Spanish palace built by a Muslim. He was restricted from depicting the human form, but he covered the walls with flowers, birds, etc. It’s a beautiful place still.
I ask: WHAT Muslim culture and innovation? Why didn’t he name something specific? He’s glossing over how pre-Islamic art and architecture is often destroyed or co-opted. There were the statues of Buddha which were blown up (with advance notice to the world) and the ancient Persian sites that were targeted for demolition or purposely flooded. The Haggia Sophia was turned into a mosque (now a museum, but never returned to the Orthodox Christians). There is a cathedral in Spain that Muslims “want back” because it was a mosque – not mentioning that the mosque replaced a church which the Moorish invasion of 711 destroyed.
Islam discouraged depictions of the human body, so that you have to look at European collections to find old manuscripts that had drawings of scenes from the Koran (albeit with Mohammed’s face scratched out or blank).
And it certainly wasn’t a contribution in the judicial system. Give me Western forensics over a discovery process in which a man’s testimony is given preference over a woman’s testimony and physical evidence!
