After reading about Denmark and their problems with the Arabs I
have found a few ways to support the country.
OK....stop the special bus at the next corner, open the window,
and tell me about your delusion:
1) A (typically) stupid Christian publication starts this whole
mess by publishing a picture that offends an (equally) stupid
bunch of Muslims.
2) The Danish government responds by saying it supports free
speech, instead of saying "Hey...you got a problem with that
cartoon? Take it up with these shmucks". By doing so, it creates
an image of solidarity with the shmucks. The audience is...guess
who? Religious fanatics in the Middle East, precisely equivalent
to the morons who published the cartoons. No brains on either
side. Free speech and separation of church & state? Alien
concepts. The Muslim shmucks assume that the Danish government
is arm in arm with the Christian shmucks. Great.
3) The Danish government sees its holdings around the world
being attacked, and you think we should say one friggin' word in
its support, when it could've distanced itself from the
PRIVATELY RUN PUBLICATION that started the mess?
If Forbes Magazine, or Time or Newseek had published the
cartoons first, you would've come up with all sorts of reasons
why "it's different". But, a Christian publication somehow
deserves "support" when its actions generate conflict.
Bull****.
i forgot
islam - new religion of liberals
No, robot. You assume a Christian newspaper is somehow superior
because the details of that religion's sins occurred just a bit
too far in the past to be accurately chronicled by web links. Too
bad. The two religions are the same.
yes, Christians are running around burning down buildings when
anyone makes fun of them. Plus, most of the papers were not
Christian. Don't turn this around like some Christian newspaper is
targeting Islam.
How about the daily jew cartoons that Islamic newspaper publish.
Where is the outrage there?
Islamists are idiots.
Perhaps Israelis (and Jews in general) realize that cartoons don't
matter. If they did, there'd be a whole slew of American political
cartoonists in prison by now, or at least their phones would be
tapped. I'm not defending the current violence against Danish
properties, by the way. I *do* object to any attempt on your
president's part to make political hay out of the situation.
Sort of like Jimmy Carter and other Democrats did during Mrs. King's
funeral yesterday? What a shameful display on their part.
Yeah, I heard about that. Inexcusable and obnoxious.
Shameful political rally's at funerals and memorials seems to be the
Democrats MO now........remember the Wellstone Memorial service?
No....don't recall that one.

I guess that makes a trend.
In recent history (2 out of 2)..............yes it does.
