President Bin Laden

Newt Gingrich recently said, "I have two grandchildren: Maggie is 11; Robert is 9. I am convinced that if we do not decisively win the struggle over the nature of America, by the time they're my age they will be in a secular atheist country, potentially one dominated by radical Islamists and with no understanding of what it once meant to be an American." This makes perfect sense. In over two hundred years we have elected one person who wasn’t a Protestant (he was almost an atheist, he was a Catholic), but in fifty years we will be run by Muslims and atheists. Logically … and naturally, a secular atheist country would be run by radical Islamists. Clearly, too, secular and atheism mean the same thing. I’m really left with only one question … what does it mean to be an American now? Do you have to proclaim utter nonsense to qualify? Does it help to seem angry? Is excluding others a prerequisite? Maybe not understanding what it means to be an American is pretty understandable … maybe it’s a good thing … maybe our country needs to be dominated by people like that.
