Default A good example of the politics of fear

Have you read about the Republican Representative from Virginia who has his panties in a knot about the fact the the new Muslim representive from MN wants to take his oath of office on the Quran? Yikes! Let's make sure nobody who is different from us gets into the country and gets elected to congress!

Is there really any such thing as racism or homophobia? -- Or is it all just xenophobia (fear and hatred of the others who are not like me and might what to take away what's mine)?
