Do you mean the 67% (of U.S. Muslims) cited above who plan to vote for Dean? You think a cartoon of SH wearing a Dean button, implying, I guess, that he and his supporters are dictator lovers; or that Howard Dean is weak on foreign policy, is going to be seen by some as an implication that 'Muslims' are "anti-American"?
That's a twist I don't see. Chances are, if they're committed to voting for Dean, they probably realize it is an attempt to make Howard Dean look "anti-American".
