a return to sanity?

I'm also troubled by, not what Sen. McCain says, but what members of the
party say. And it is permitted to be said, such things as, "Well, you that know
Mr. Obama is a Muslim." Well, the correct answer is, he is not a Muslim, he's a
Christian. He's always been a Christian. But the really right answer is: What if
he is? Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country? The
answer's no, that's not America. Is there something wrong with some 7-year-old
Muslim American kid believing that he or she could be president? Yet I have
heard senior members of my own party drop the suggestion, "He's a Muslim and he
might be associated with terrorists." This is not the way we should be doing it
in America.
