For me, EVERY day is a day to give thanks for and to those who allow us all to live in freedom.

I wholeheartedly agree with what you've said on both comments 60,65 and to which I apologize for, accepting responsibility for having linked to this less-than-celebrated site on which I based this post on.

The fact is that I am very judicious about the sites I choose to post articles about here at FR, sites I come across regarding a story of interest often not suitable to be posted here due to what I find to be politically undesirable, having to search for alternative sources in which to post articles on these same issues.

In this case, I agree with you that the site linked to was less than optimum, should have been a bit more careful.

But the bottom line is,was that this story was given considerable coverage all throughout the internet, media and thus felt it deserved to be posted albeit at a site more deserved, authoritative to be linked to.

Thanks for pointing this out. This kind of stuff gets passed off as “news” all the time.

By the way, the “crescent” in the Google logo is actually a plane contrail. Duh.
