Is Democracy The Province Of White Christians, Only?

Those danged Iraqis. They continue to disappoint by failing to be disappointing. Could it be that most of them value freedom, democracy and peace as much as white Christians do?

The above comments are supposed to come from a marine stationed in Fallujah.

I really take exception to association of democracy as the province of "white Christians." That is the problem with this administration and its take-over by the right wing religious zealots, who are "white Christians." Make no mistake about it, the above comment reflects a percentage of the population of our country that believes in this new "crusade" against non-Christians and their beliefs, as well as people of color. Remember, a good Christian is a white Christian, in their world. Everyone else is just fodder.
