Strange Bedfellows

Guess who has a huge belief in common with the Club for Growth gang?

Figured it out yet?

Yes, the folks who love the flat tax with a zeal approaching fundamentalist religion ought to love the low-tax message of Osama bin Laden.

"To conclude," bin Laden says [in a recently released video], "I invite you to embrace Islam." He goes on to say: "There are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling 2.5 percent."

Indeed, stressing both tithing and lowering taxes sounds like something straight out of, say, the Texas Republican Party platform.
