[See NewsBusters for more.] Liberal MSNBC journalist Richard Wolffe on Monday complained of conservative "islamophobia" in Canada. Previewing that day's election results, he said of Prime Minister Stephen Harper: "...Millions of voters are heading to the polls in Canada today where one of the leading contenders is facing accusations of using islamophobia and dog whistle politics." Wolffe described a Harper policy banning the wearing of the Islamic Niqab (or veil) at citizenship ceremonies. The MSNBC journalist sneered, "...This is dog whistle politics, isn't it?"
