Is Obama really racially profiling, and is it really wrong?

Spencer Ackerman says yes and yes. I'm not so sure. First off, is being Muslim a racial thing, a religious thing, an ethnic thing, or a geographic thing? And I say geographic because the new TSA rules are not to screen all Muslims, they're to screen anyone from specific countries (and all Muslim countries are not on the list). I think very often on the left we automatically defend the concept of not profiling anyone, especially if they're a person or people of color. But is profiling per se wrong, and unwarranted, in the case of international terrorism, and more generally is what Obama is doing with regards to the new TSA rules "racial" profiling? Is this not a problem we're having with radical Muslims? Just curious what you all think.
