Anti-Muslim conservatives protest Liberal woman living in Hell’s Kitchen

By William K. Wolfrum on Mon, 08/23/2010 - 7:32am | Politics, Humor & Satire, Media

NEW YORK – Ann Thomson, an 83-year-old widow, was awoken last last night to screams of protests by angry conservatives at her her home on 39th Street, in an area known as Hell’s Kitchen.

The protesters were angry that Thompson, a long-time liberal, had told a friend that she didn’t mind the Islamic Center being built two blocks away from Ground Zero.

Bruce Springsteen didn’t write “Born in the U.S.A.” to protest Islamic centers - try reading the lyrics

By William K. Wolfrum on Sun, 08/22/2010 - 7:55pm | Politics, Arts & Entertainment

Over at Alan Colmes Liberaland, I was reading about protests near the Islamic Center two blocks away from Ground Zero, when this struck me:

Opponents chanted “No mosque, no way!” and carried signs reading, “9-11-01: Never Forget,” as Bruce Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” blared over loudspeakers.

Barack Obama Must Attend Westboro Baptist Church

By William K. Wolfrum on Sat, 08/21/2010 - 8:54am | Politics, Humor & Satire, Religion

America faces few problems worse than where and when Barack Obama goes to church. Sure, there are environmental catastrophes to worry about, an economy that shows no interest in bouncing back, wars on God knows how many fronts and unemployment high enough to make Herbert Hoover cringe.

But this is America. And Christ matters.
