No, wait, are they serious?

UK Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary has called on Muslims to “rise to implement the Shari’ah in America,” starting with a planned demonstration in front of the White House.

Choudary’s “call for revolution” was being organized by Shariah4America, a group calling for the “Islamic demolition of the Statue of Liberty” and a remodeling of the White House into a “White Masjid.”

According to the group’s website, the Statue of Liberty “elevates the command of man over the command of God” and public veneration of the statue amounts to idol worship strictly prohibited by Islam.

“This has forced sincere Muslims to develop realistic plans that will aid in the removal of the Statue of Liberty. “Due to the scale of the task at hand, it is highly likely that rigorous safety checks will need to be employed before the demolition of the Statue of Liberty can commence; thus as a temporary measure, it is proposed that a large burkha is used to cover the statue, thereby shielding this horrendous eye sore from public view as well as sending a strong message to its French creators,” the site reads.

Now, I'm having a little trouble with all this -- First off, here's the trouble, I don't know where the gag starts or ends. The Islam site looks made up. Like a completely made up gag for use by Christians to bash Islam.... Or perhaps race baiters and folks who need news to keep talking about it. After all, I first found this because someone pointed me to it via Glen Beck's "The Blaze" -- which forced me to do a double take on that too, as I thought it was a poor Onion rip-off.

So now one has to ask the obvious question, who's crazier?

Just so we're clear...



If you're having trouble reading it - http://imgur.com/mwu1d.jpg, or click on the picture.

And if you're having trouble keeping the two apart, the graphic isn't going to help.

What was hilarious, to me, was that Al Sharpton's thrown-together-in-haste group couldn't get a speech out - and it was cut n' pasted from King's speech. The best part on their team was that they actually had organ play-off-music ala the Oscars.

And the other side, they changed their tune to be more religious in nature, and were also cutting and pasting Obama's and King's speeches. The speeches were rambling and trying very hard not to be political - it was more like a Promise Keeper's parade than a TEA party rally.

It was interesting to see that when they knew they were going to get clobbered with the King Anniversary, how they changed the tone and the graphics -- but those pictures weren't created in a day. They weren't just whipped up and sent to the printshop overnight.

But the main take away here is that the people that the Left are pointing their fingers at and laughing at these folks via John Stewart, and they are still not being taken seriously. They're branded a joke and racists - and the Left have no clue why they're going to get spanked in the mid-term. And, more importantly, if two idiots like Sarah Palin and Glen Beck can raise the flag to rally the troops to march into Washington -- someone a little more charisma and is a tad more clever could tell them what kind of shirt to wear and do it again. And a lot less peacefully.
