Next they'll blame the shooting victims of this massacre...
You. Must. Be. Shitting. Me.

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates — The U.S. Homeland Security secretary says she is working to prevent a possible wave of anti-Muslim sentiment after the shootings at Fort Hood in Texas.
Janet Napolitano says her agency is working with groups across the United States to try to deflect any backlash against American Muslims following Thursday's rampage by Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim who reportedly expressed growing dismay over the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The shootings left 13 people dead and 29 wounded.
Napolitano was in the United Arab Emirates on Sunday for talks with security officials and a meeting with women university students in Abu Dhabi.
Am I the only one that finds this bizarre? Am I the only one wondering what a similar reaction would have been the day Pearl Harbor was bombed by the Japanese? Would FDR have told us not to jump to conclusions? Would anyone in his administration have worked to insure there was no "backlash" against Japanese-Americans? Would elements of this same administration have characterized political conservatives as "potential far-right extremists"?
Lead me back to that wormhole I fell through Lord, this Bizarro Universe is not for me.

Oh, don't worry Senior Chief, nobody will blame the victims. Don't you know? It's all Bush's fault!
DUH! You're right! (Slapping forehead) How could I have forgotten?
Rev. Gregori, you hit the nail right on the head.
