One day, there will be only one tattooed knuckle-dragging white skinhead left on the continent. But he'll single-handedly be officially responsible for the majority of anti-Semitic attacks.

I feel honored to breathe the same air as Mark Steyn.

With the assassination of Pym Fortune, apparently a number of Dutch are finally figuring out who the enemy really is. I'll bet that there are plenty of Euros who are a tad discomfited by the influx of unassimilatable Muslims. But as your story indicates, probably most
Euros still have their heads stuck in the sand.

Don't even think about satirizing Moslems.
Nope. Those ROPMA fatwahs are killers. :-(

Satire has indeed been redefined in order to attack GWB and America.

Mark Steyn's pin-pointed the character of Hanoi Jean Kerry's shrinking base of support...MUD

If you're going to be provocative, it's best to do it with people who can't be provoked.

Good line

I expect to see massive deportations coming out of europe in the coming months. They've been asleep for a very long time and have been playing the politically correct game longer than we have over here, but they are about to enter panic mode and it's not going to be pretty.

John, I, consider you one of the brightest writers here on Free Re public, but you have serious issues with your identity :-) :-) :-)

I cant tell you how many times I see you pinging me as AdminMod, SidebarMod, (UnKnown), and my personal favorite, "JohnHuang2"

John, You are an "ACE" at being spot on with you "2 Cents" but you need to work on who you signed on as :-)

P.S. God Bless You John :-)

One can be pro-war or anti-war, but the notion that the fundamentalism that's threatening the world is Bush-Blair Christianity is so far off the mark as to be pathological.

Absolutely.
