Spin Cycle

Rep. Peter King has said that he was taken out of context -- it looks more to us like he didn't quite say what he meant -- when he told Politico that "unfortunately there are too many mosques in this country, there's too many people who are sympathetic to radical Islam."

But, you know, it's a presidential cycle suddenly, so who's gonna give him a break? Look how the AP leads its story -- "A homeland security adviser to Rudy Giuliani came under fire Thursday for claiming there were 'too many mosques' in the United States -- and says that both the Council on American-Islamic Relations and the Democratic Party are calling on Rudy to sever ties with King.

Not very likely, we think.
