Here's one from a Harper defender with a keen eye for hypocrisy.

I'm not a Christian or a conservative. But think about it, it's true.... If they were made to sing a song that praised Jesus, there would be quite a stink. But a song with a line about praising Allah is okay? And the comment about Allah being just another harmless name for God.... Come on, U can't be that naive. Every religion calls their "god" by a specific name, and in Islam it is Allah. We all know this. It's just another example of the "reverse discrimination" that's going on. We are supposed to be "tolerant" of gays, muslims, people from all different countries and cultures... everyone except straight white Christians. Aren't we supposed to be tolerant of EVERYONE, including those who think or live differently than we do? I'm sorry, but this kid has a point. And the reporter jumping on Fox News.... So EVERY media outlet is supposed to be liberal biased? We can't have ONE channel for conservatives? Doesn't sound very tolerant to me. Let's reverse it.... If there was a choir song about Jesus being sung, and some Muslim kid in the choir didn't want to sing it, I'm sure that would be okay. But since the kid is obviously a Christian, he's a great target for the overwhelmingly liberal media. Remember, I'm not a Republican or some Fox News fan, just someone who know hypocrisy when they see it.
