The 57 State Strategy and Islamic OIC Code

The hosts revisit Obama's famous "57 states" gaffe after Congressman Keith Ellison uses the same number when discussing a DNC strategy. They speculate that "57" might be a code referring to the 57 member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC). John Dvorak shares a childhood story about being punished in a Dutch school for correctly stating there are 50 US states.

Organization of Islamic Cooperation and Global Blasphemy Laws

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) is calling for international laws to ban "hate speech" and blasphemy against the Prophet Muhammad following the "Innocence of Muslims" film controversy. The hosts discuss how Western leaders like President Obama and Hillary Clinton are increasingly entertaining these restrictions on free speech. They also note the irony of the OIC's "religious tolerance" map, which explicitly blocks India from membership.
