Fizzle Shahzad

OK, his name's really Faisal, but given the absurd mixture he cobbled together by way of a "bomb", I think "Fizzle" is more apt.

Monica Crowley at Big Government has noticed one fact that's conspicuous in its absence: Fizzle's religion.

I have read countless reports about the arrest, in newspapers and websites big and small.  So far, I have not seen a single mention of his faith.  Not a single reference to his being Muslim.  We're left to deduce that by his Pakistani ethnicity and name.

Political correctness has stripped us of our ability to be brutally honest about the nature of the threat we face.  It's not from a bunch of maniacal Catholics or Jews or Hindus or Buddhists.  The lethal threat is coming from radical Muslims.  Even after September 11, even after repeated terror attacks and attempts here and abroad, we still cannot be truthful and outspoken about it?  Pathetic.

Oh, I don't know.  Maybe he's Amish.  Or Jedi.

New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg made a ridiculous statement before the arrest, suggesting it could be "someone…that doesn't like the health care bill."
