    Not bigotry - reality.  Poll after poll shows that the Arab world views us 
    with increasing disdain and hatred.  To lose respect for nations and 
    nationals who are of this ideology is not, IMHO bigotry, but a dose of 
    healthy reality.  Was it bigotry to think ill of the Germans under Hitler or 
    the Russians under Stalin?  Methinks we take PC too far these days.
