The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has big concerns about the Emerald Coast Tea Party Patriots inviting Brigitte Gabriel, the head of the anti-Islam hate group "ACT! for America," to be their keynote speaker at its "U.S. Constitution Freedom Rally" on August 21 in Fort Walton Beach, Fla.

There is compelling new evidence that Republicans will rue the day that they allowed their virulent anti-immigrant wing to grab the controls of the Republican Party.

In fact, contrary to much of the pundit chatter, a drama is playing out this fall that may doom Republicans to permanent minority status in America.

FOX hosts have shown time and again an uneasiness with the proximity Arizona has with the nation of Mexico. Whether deriding ethnic studies or creating horribly biased juxtapositions to make Latino protesters of the recent Arizona immigration legislation look violent compared to noticeably whiter Tea Party crowds, FOX regularly incites fear of the neighboring nation. Playing on that fear, America Live host Shannon Bream and FOX Nation coupled to create a new controversy about a strip of land near the border because, as Bream put it, "A massive stretch of Arizona now off limits to Americans — critics say the administration is, in effect, giving a major strip of the Southwest back to Mexico."

As any reasonable onlooker must conclude, the story sounds too outlandish to have any ounce of verified truth. A little bit of fact checking totally repudiated FOX's broadcast.
