NRCC Attacks on Griffith [Daniel Foster]

From deep within the archives of POLITICO: More on the NRCC gunning for Griffith during the election:

Democratic State Senator Parker Griffith has been under fire in recent weeks for comments made to a local Baptist Association, In which he suggested radical Islam is not a threat to the U.S. "We have nothing to fear from radical Islam. We have nothing to fear from any other religion if we are strong on our own beliefs. I do not fear radical Islam," Griffith said, according to an audio tape made of his appearance. Adding insult Thurs injury, Griffith had already pointed a finger at American culture: "I think America's greatest enemy is America and its materialism," he said.
