Poll: No liberties for Muslim-Americans

Posted on 12/17/2004 at 6:01 pm by Bob Cesca

A Cornell University poll, announced today, found that nearly 50% of Americans think the government should restrict the civil liberties of Muslim-Americans. NY Newsday:

The survey also found respondents who identified themselves as highly religious supported restrictions on Muslim-Americans more strongly than those less religious.

Curtailing civil liberties for Muslim-Americans also was supported more by Republicans than Democrats, the survey found.

Republicans and the ultra-religious. That’s surprising, no? RBN’s John Christian Plummer gets into it here.

    When Republicans and conservatives talk about more freedoms and less government intrustion, clearly they mean as it applies to themselves and themselves alone.Why do they hate America?

    The neocons hate America because the Constitution doesn’t effectively represent the biblical book of Leviticus. I wonder if those who want to obscure the line between church and state will like it when the government begins to tell them what they can and can’t preach in their houses of worship.
