| Description | Republican Rep. Tom Tancredo could be making his district a target for terrorists with his statements about Islam, Democrat Bill Winter said Sunday.
Winter, who is challenging Tancredo in Colorado's 6th Congressional District, said in an interview, "Back in 2005, he (Tancredo) said that maybe we ought to bomb Muslim holy places, including Mecca, in response to terrorism. And last week he sent the letter regarding the pope's comments about Islam and radical Islam."
"I think what he fails to take into account is that it is very easy to find out where he's from. When he makes comments like that, he has to remember he is in the public eye and he's a public official," Winter said. |
