What is a "Radical Islam" fight? Your headline title implication is not what is in the clip, or the article. Fred Sanders Feb 2015 #1
I think it refers to the criticism that Obama won't call it radical Islam. zeemike Feb 2015 #2
The RW wants "proper labels" so as to smear all of Islam, and there is much of the same demand at DU. Fred Sanders Feb 2015 #4
Labeling is an important part of propaganda. zeemike Feb 2015 #5

“It’s what the medical community calls MSNBC-itis,” Stewart said. “It’s a condition where one uses facts and research to refute opponents, delivered whilst bespectacled, in a tone suggesting you can’t believe you have to explain this to these f*cking idiots — again. Symptoms include: cancellation.”

I am with Obama. Can not believe he has to explain it again and again.

It is the right wing meme that insists it is Islam that is at fault.
