Obsessed about 'Obsession'

The Muslim Public Affairs Council (MPAC) is upset about a film entitled 'Obsession'. The film's advertisement campaign featured the saying, "Radical Islam Wants You Dead."

Florida's Attorney General Bill McCollum is requiring his employees to attend one of three screenings of this film. McCollum says that the screening is intended to help employees "better understand the threat that we face as a nation and society."

The MPAC says that this is tainting the purpose of the Attorney General's office by subjecting employees to such hateful and divisive messages.

The only problem is that the MPAC itself has a long history of "hateful and divisive messages."
