Let me just sum things up a bit more seriously.
First, this idea that fears of being attacked for racial profiling prevented the FBI from acting appropriately is just ridiculous.
Second, anyone peddling this idea needs to confront the fact that if this was true, it was stated policy of the Bush administration (see below). It wasn't thrust upon them by evil librul do-gooders, but instead simply designed to get votes from Arab-Americans. And, boy is Zogby pissed now. Grover Norquist has been laying low lately, as he was the man behind this particular effort, and it's backfired a bit.
