Christians don't "murder" & the Obama-the-Muslim conspiracy theory is back

Speaking of the way people interpret behavior based on their shared religious background (or lack thereof), Dan Mathewson has a sharp analysis in Religion Dispatches of the conspicuous absence of Christian faith from MSM analysis of the recent abortion doctor murder by a Pro Life fanatic. The title says it all: Muslims Murder, Christians Don’t: What Went Missing in Analysis of Tiller’s Executioner

His connection with extremist Christian groups, apparently, is irrelevant. [...]

Also at RD, Hussein Rashid reports in "The Obama/Muslim Smear Strikes Again" how that transparent, repulsive old Manchurian Moslem conspiracy theory is still alive and kicking in the MSM. (A topic I wrote about once for Religion Dispatches, as well, in "Who's Smearing Obama?")

Man, Frank Gaffney just never ceases to nauseate.
