Critical of Islam vs. Critical of Mormons

Hugh Hewitt had Lawrence O’donnell on his show the other day asking him about his problem with Mormons including his recent attack where he called Mormonism a “racist faith” and Joseph Smith a “lying, fraudulent, criminal”, and whether he would be just as critical about Mohammed and his teachings from the Koran.  The transcript is here, but here’s the juice:

HH: Would you say the same things about Mohammed as you just said about Joseph Smith?

LO’D: Oh, well, I’m afraid of what the…that’s where I’m really afraid. I would like to criticize Islam much more than I do publicly, but I’m afraid for my life if I do.

HH: Well, that’s candid.

LO’D: Mormons are the nicest people in the world. They’re not going to ever…

HH: So you can be bigoted towards Mormons, because they’ll just send you a strudel.

LO’D: They’ll never take a shot at me. Those other people, I’m not going to say a word about them.

HH: They’ll send you a strudel. The Mormons will bake you a cake and be nice to you.

LO’D: I agree.

HH: Lawrence O’Donnell, I appreciate your candor.

    There will never be a meeting of the minds if both sides don't feel free to say what they are truly thinking. Political correctness is not helping this situation.
