Letting The Air Out Of CAIR

1700. That's the new number. No matter how much money the Saudi prince donates, no matter how slick and up-to-date their websites, no matter the fact that they report an expansion of offices (from 8 to 33), CAIR's membership has dwindled ninety percent since 2000. The hot air balloon with the sinister side sprung a leak, and shrunk to the size of a hot-water bottle, and now has fewer members nationally than the average local weekly bingo congregation. And if you divide 1700 by 33 you get about 50 lonely souls in each urban outpost, about as many as a late-night crowd in a bar, and just as forlorn.
Of course this is great news. As a bonus, we might see a lot less of that braying pinhead up there.
