An imam - Taj Hargey (pictured) who lives in the UK - goes on the record and makes several sensible comments. Like this one: "Islam is not here to impose minarets or (women in burqas) on this society, but to assimilate to it. We don't do enough to show that we aren't a threat." Dr. Hargey has carved out a reputation as a cheerful moderate who regularly does battle with "Muslim McCarthyists." Now, what would Joe think of that phrase?
Update: While Europe ponders the burqa, the U.S. now can boast of a bodacious hair-free beauty queen who will be participating in the Miss America pageant! Meet Kayla Martell, the new Miss Delaware 2010 who has turned the burden of alopecia into a blessing.
