No free speech on the "Love Boat"

Fred Grandy, one of the lovable characters on the "Love Boat (he played Gopher) is not allowed to talk about Islam on his radio show, so he decides to quit.  His wife and himself had a long-running and successful talk show on WMAL in Washington DC and had recently spent more time talking about Islam and the problems therein.  His bosses did not like his views, and it is implied that CAIR had something to do with his leaving. 

Whatever the reasons, the fact that he was pressured into leaving due to his views on Islam  is another brick in the jihadist and Islamist wall.  Freedom of speech, not if it's about Islam and Muslims.

Ex-Rep, 'Gopher' Leaves Radio Show After Alleged Pressure Over Islam Comments

Fred Grandy, the former "Love Boat" star who served several terms in Congress before landing a gig as a radio host, resigned from his show this week after he was pressured to stop talking so much about radical Islam, his wife, Catherine, told FoxNews.com. 

Catherine Mann-Grandy, who spoke with FoxNews.com extensively about the details of their split with WMAL management, confirmed that the couple's critical commentary on radical Islam was the driving factor behind Grandy's resignation. 

"You're not allowed to talk about what's happening in your country," she said. 

Exactly right, Mrs. Grandy, and now you are a victim of Islamic doctrine so shut up a little.

Fred Grandy, best known for his role as Gopher in "The Love Boat," had been on air as a host at Washington, D.C.'s WMAL since 2003. He worked most recently as host of "The Grandy Group" -- his wife made regular appearances on that show under the nickname "Mrs. Fred." 

But while both of them started devoting more and more segments to the subject of Muslim influence in America over the past year, it was Catherine's comments that apparently led to an ultimatum. 

Mann-Grandy, who did a regular segment called "domestic terrorism 101," hit a string of topics on their show last Friday. Though the segment was taken off the radio's site, she described it. She said that, on air, she quoted a rabbi who compared radical Muslims to Nazis, complained that President Obama was not doing enough to help Israel, warned that "Shariah-compliant" individuals work in the government and discussed several other Islam-related topics.

Uh oh, it sounds like she is one of those dreaded "Islamophobes" we keep hearing about. 

Read it all.
