And to make the point that the question of Muslims in the is a serious and looming question Talking Points Memo looks at the ranking Muslim in the current administration.
Zalmay Khalilzad, an Afghan-American and Muslim, has been a senior member of
President Bush's foreign policy team from the start. He has been successively, US Ambassador to Afghanistan (2003-05), US Ambassador to Iraq (2005-07) and now
US Ambassador to the United Nations (2007-).
He's often discussed as a potential Secretary of State should a Republican win the presidency in 2008....
So it is not SO hypothetical, it is a question of what biases will be taken into the next administration.
And there is that sweet sight of hypocrisy...though I have noticed that conservatives are often blind to that in their leaders.
