    Well he's started again. I thought this response from the National Jewish Democratic Council was very appropriate.

    If anything, the lack of jobs accelerates radicalization dramatically.

    Neo-McCarthyism at its finest.

    Religious radicals are a problem, Muslims in particular.

    But right now we have some bigger fish to fry.

    That's the whole problem with his hearings. There are bigger problems coming out of prisons than radical muslims. There is more violence and detriment to our society that come out of prisons from White supremacists and gangs.

    So why isolate one group that isn't the biggest problem and focus only on them? It's bashing Islam for the sake of bashing Islam.

    Focusing on Islamic radicals world wide is certainly a valuable pursuit. But in our nation we should focus on the biggest problems, and prisoners being turned into radical Islamic terrorists isn't it.

    Frankly, it's embarrassing.
