No, it isn't.

From the page: '"I've had enough of Islam in the Netherlands; let not one more Muslim immigrate," he wrote in the paper. "I've had enough of the Quran in the Netherlands: Forbid that fascist book."

Prosecution spokeswoman Hanneke Festen said Wilders' statements were allowable under Dutch law, which forbids inciting hatred against groups on the basis of their race or creed but also grants leeway to freedom of speech."'

Sure, you have freedom of speech.

However, consider the consequences before you speak.  You're bad-mouthing a culture that glorifies childish retaliation.  If you promote banning their beliefs, they're going to promote banning your beliefs.  What's more, even though your government is too "civilized" to act on such bigotry, theirs isn't.

When you promote banning their beliefs in your country, all you're likely to do is get your beliefs banned in their country.  Then again, bigots like you have been around for centuries, so your beliefs are probably already banned in their country.

From the page:'"It is interesting, that termites don't build things, and the great builders of our nation almost to a man have been Christians, because Christians have the desire to build something. He is motivated by love of man and God, so he builds. The people who have come into (our) institutions (today) are primarily termites. They are into destroying institutions that have been built by Christians, whether it is universities, governments, our own traditions, that we have.... The termites are in charge now, and that is not the way it ought to be, and the time has arrived for a godly fumigation."--Pat Robertson, New York Magazine, August 18, 1986

This is possibly one of the worst things that Pat has ever said. I challenge any of his followers to defend the idea of fumigating the non-Christian "termites." It astounds me that Newt Gingrich could publicly admire such a man and get away with it.'

If Pat Robertson really wasn't talking about about members of his own religion, he should have been seeing to his own termites, because Christendom is full of the little parasites. When the godly fumigation happens, it will start with the hypocritical parasites of Christendom.

The most insightful comments about politics only appear in comic strips:

I was expecting an attempt at humor. If this had been a play on words, such as:

wiki = wicked
pedia = pedo

It might have been slightly funny from some warped point of view.

Oh, it's a political site? Pardon me while I go back and thumb it down.

And I thought Political Correctness had gotten silly in America!

I despise politics, but I think any society could benefit from cuteness, and the white house hasn't had cuteness of this caliber since Amy Carter.

This is how Muslim children express their love for Muhammad's name; from the page: "The case started in September when Ms. Gibbons, who taught at one of Sudan's most exclusive private schools, began a project on animals and asked her class to suggest a name for a teddy bear. The class voted resoundingly for Muhammad, one of the most common names in the Muslim world and the name of Islam's holy prophet."

This is what they get for expressing such love: "Ms. Gibbons, 54, has been in jail since Sunday, and Mr. Daair said her sentence would include time served, which means she will spend 10 more days behind bars before being sent to Britain."

A Sudanese Muslim explains: '"Our government creates such problems to divert the eyes of the world community from our domestic problems," Ms. Hussein said. "I am sure that the case of the British teacher is politically motivated and has got nothing to do with our prophet."'
