Ramadan Kareem

 "I didn't want to wish you Ramadan Kareem on the air. . ."

said Jake Tapper just now on CNN, thinking his mike was off.  He had just interviewed some lawyers irate at being under surveillance without any reason save for their being Muslim.

His mike was on and I wonder -- just why was he unwilling?  Is there a war on Ramadan?

  1. No, but... (complete the sentence).

  2. It's very unAmerican, since 2001 to be polite to, y'know, THOSE people? Tapper didn't want his viewers to think he in any way could be seen as a "Muzzy Lover," or supporting President Barack HUSSEIN Obama's tribe.

    Tapper has his journalistic integrity to protect, doncha know.

  3. I'm very sure that had he said " I didn't want to wish you Merry Christmas" Fox would have blown a main fuse trying to inflate that statement to a declaration of war.

    Oh well, nobody else seems to have noticed.
