I got home fairly late this evening, and it took me six hours to go through all the email and the skype. I had to fudge the time stamp on this post to push it back into Friday…As many of you know by now, I spent the last two days at the ACT for America conference and legislative briefing in Washington D.C. I’ll have more to say tomorrow about that excellent event.
Two major items of welcome news came in while I was gone: Geert Wilders was acquitted on all counts, and CAIR lost its tax-exempt status. Yesterday was definitely a good news day.
To see the headlines and the articles, open the full news post.
Thanks to Fjordman, heroyalwhyness, JD, Nilk, and all the other tipsters who sent these in.

CAIR lost its tax-exempt status
This is HUGE good news. A tiny step towards Islam being unmasked as a political ideology and losing its religiously-based tax-exempt status as well.
Meanwhile, CAIR’s web site continues to solicit donations by touting them as tax deductible two weeks after the IRS issued the list and notifications were sent to all 275,000 purged groups. [emphasis added]
Still up to the same old tricks.
