And apparently, the Left Wing Wackos at George Soros-funded Salon think this is a BAD thing!
SALON Anyone wondering why Rep. Michele Bachmann would launch a witch hunt valid investigation against Muslims or why the Republican Party would add a plank to its platform opposing Shariah law need look no further than a new poll conducted by the Arab American Institute.
The poll, released today, asked Americans for their views on various religious groups, as well as on Arabs and Arab-Americans. It also asked respondents how confident they would be that a Muslim or Arab-American holding a position of influence in government could do their job without letting “ethnic loyalty … influence their decision-making.”
The results are split sharply along partisan lines. Overall, Republican voters hold strongly negative views of Muslims, with 57 percent (ONLY 57%?) saying they view them unfavorably and just 26% saying they view them favorably (that many?) — more than double. The numbers are similar for Arabs, whom Republican respondents view negatively by a slightly smaller margin of 26 percent, 53 to 27 percent (That’s because an Arab might be a Christian). When asked about “Muslim Americans” and “Arab Americans,” the numbers improved slightly, with a 12 and 15 percent net unfavorable rating, respectively.
By contrast, Democrats (in their usual love the enemies of America mode) held favorable views of these groups by margins of at least 20-35 percent in all four cases. The view of Muslims and Arabs among Democrats was still less positive than other religious groups included in the survey, however, underscoring a resilient problem of post-9/11 America. Still, Democrats gave no group a net negative rating, while Republicans gave negative ratings to Muslims, Arabs, Muslim-Americans and Arab-Americans.(And rightly so)
On the question of Muslims and Arabs in the government, the results were similar. While about twice as many Democrats said they were confident a Muslim-American could do his or her job and that ethnic loyalty would not interfere, the results were flipped among Republicans. A slim majority of 51 percent said ethnic loyalty would trump job responsibility (we need to get that number up), while 25 percent said they were confident Muslim-Americans in government could do their jobs (we need to get that number down).
Some of this divide is also along generational lines, which overlap with partisan divisions. The poll found younger Americans (18-25) of both parties rate Arabs and Muslims up to 17 points higher than the older generation (young people are ignorant because they are brainwashed by lefties in the schools).
The poll was conducted by JZ Analytics, the firm run by John Zogby, the brother of Jim, who is the head of the Arab American Institute. The online survey of 1,052 U.S. Likely Voters was conducted between Aug. 15 and 16, and had a confidence interval of 95 percent and margin of error +/- 3.1 percentage points.
NEWS FLASH! Muslims don’t like conservatives also! Big deal! We just don’t fall for all the muzzie BS while the left wing liberals pander to them for votes.
The important part of this analysis is HOW IS THE ANTI-JIHAD GROUP OF AMERICANS GROWING?
The anti-jihad community needs to work harder to make Americans aware of the danger of Islamic misogyny and supremacism.
But Grover Norquist has brought in Suhail Khan into CPAC to lie to conservatives and gain legitamacy. WA state GOP also adpted anti jihad and anti shariah planks in our platform… We are making heady butstill have a lot to do!! We got Eric Allen Bell to see the light…Bob Beckle and Bill Maher are also beggining to come around… Keep educating youselves and you communities!!! Islam cannot hold up to the truth!!
Kelly, Norquist is a pig and an Islamopanderer. I hate him.
Amen!!!
Oh, those pesky Republicans! Always trying to keep America and her citizens safe. What the hell is wrong with them? Can’t they see that Allah likes women being treated like shit? Don’t they get how amputating hands may keep a thief from stealing again? Can’t they understand that mutilating a woman’s genitals will keep her faithful to her husband, thus preserving the family?
As far as I’m concerned, the fact that Republicans few the muzzturds less favorably than do the Dems, is just one more reason to vote Republican.
One thing we need to keep telling all Americans, Muslims hate dogs. Muslims think dogs are dirty. To all your liberal dog owners out there, wake up to the realities of Islam. Its an evil ideology that doesn’t like you anymore then they do Republicans. Your an infidel to them. They use you to get what they want. Sharia law here in America. When your dogs are banned from being allowed to walk near a mosque, by then it will be too late.
All the more reason to vote Republican !!! ROMNEY IN 2012 ! F&%K OBAMA !
You really want to F&%K barak hussein? That would be rishathra. LOL
With those jumbo dumbo ears I wonder if the secret service has to hold him down when it gets windy.

I want to see the poll that shows how many people use to be oblivious to Islam, then gave them room for doubt, then hated them.
Those who love individual freedom detest totalitarianism. Why is there anything wrong with that?
Never ever let anyone tell you otherwise. You nailed it to the cross on that one. There is absolutly nothing wrong with detesting a totalitarian system, it is anti-everything we stand for. Semper Fi.
BNI Brilliant presentation – It is great to know there are more in the USA against Islam and Sharia Law than I thought. Let us hope the majority in the rest of the Western World rises up against Islam. I am doing everything in my power to wake up more Australians about dark Islam. Best Wishes, Allan
Thanks Allan.
BNI, forgive my ignorance but what does the acronym GOP mean? I read Alex Seitz-Wald’s report in Salon; I gained the impression that he supports Islam; is this correct?
Allan, my bad, I forgot that non-Americans won’t know these abbreviations – Grand Old Party (Republicans)
A partner Acronym to GAR, Grand Army of the Republic which was how Union veterans of the Civil War were identified.
We have to get to pro-Islamists like Chris Christie. There are too many Republicans falling for CAIR. Infiltration through Saudi Finance is a big problem. We absolutely must educate them. Republicans are not the end answer, they are going the way of Islamization as well.
Thank you BNI
There is voice analysis and brain scanning tech that can determine whether a person is truthful or not. Such technology should be incorporated into screening of immigrants to include “refugees” and candidates for naturalization.
The outcome of this survey no doubt, leave me with the impression, the sane among us are not demoncrats, and they call us the haters, really. It’s too apparent, we are the better educated about this muslim invasion and all of it’s unintended consequences for the future of this Nation. But, hey don’t you dare say it to a demonrat party member, usual response, “you’re a racist”, actual reply, islam is what race again?, pretty much leaves them is a state of stupid. Need I say more?
There is nothing aledged about major hasans’ jihadist attack at fort hood. I have a good friend that was there when it happened. Major hasan WAS the shooter.
I knew there had to be a reason besides the SLL* in the white house that I tend to be in favor of republicans. This should be a game changer for all the democRATS to abandom him too !

Pee Ess: I know it’s spelled “Slimy”, but when referring to Obama, “Slimy” just ain’t Slimey enough.
Bonni hits the nail on the head and drives the point home with precision; no finishing needed.
