What gets me is Patraeus' statement that burning the Koran would put our troops in greater danger. Uh, General...aren't we at war? Aren't the troops:
1) already in great danger (I've always heard wars are dangerous), and
2) prepared to defend themselves from their enemies, who already don't like them very much as it is?

Should we be more worried about defeating our f**king enemies instead of playing politically correct pattycake with them?!?!?!

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

Let me start by saying I completely support our first amendment rights to freedom of expression; they should be able to burn the book just like I support a person’s right to tread our flag into the dirt - something I abhor, but it’s still their right.

That said, this pastor is a low-life. This act doesn’t show the world the true America - the America which says it will embrace all faiths.

This past Friday, our church group met a Shiite Iraqi family of five at the local airport; the State Department has assigned them refugee status due to the guy’s military background in Iraq. Our group has arranged with a refugee organization to “adopt” the family for a year or two, to help them with basic necessities, transportation, etc, until they are able to become self-sustaining.

We will never speak of our religion to them unless they ask; indeed - we want them to see how amazing and open America is...what are they going to think on Sept 11 when they turn on the TV and see people in a nearby state burning their holy book? The very thought pains me greatly.
