From today's PI -- Letters to the Editor:

Pastor: But right-wing preachers aren't called on the carpet


So let me get this straight: Barack Obama's pastor makes a remark in the sanctity of his church, and Obama is called out from the public pulpit and is made out to be somehow responsible for it. But right-wing Christian ministers can spew anti-gay, anti-woman, anti-Arab, anti-Semitic, anti-Catholic, anti-science, anti-human bile from their cable networks and talk shows. They can summon the wrath of their God on the Muslim world and call for the assassination of foreign leaders. They can do all this, and the Republican presidents and politicians who consort with them not only get off scot free, they get away with branding the media as liberal.

What a world.
