Not at all. We can be as angry as we want about this story, and the terrorists, but most Muslims aren't terrorists. Flame away, but it's the truth.

you bring up a good (actually bad) point.

i understand Bush has to play peace with the raggers but a little ecumenical pandering goes a long way.

There way have been many innocent lives saved by dousing that Koran in urine in front of terrorist scum.

To hell with it then. Yeah, you murdering bunch of moon rock worshipping idiots-this is what we think of your "holy" book. You gonna riot and kill more of each other in your feigned outrage? By all means, may the force be with ya and all that shit. Pass out extra ammo to our troopers and tell them to be hyper-vigilant. If there are any people who aren't aware that were engaged in a Holy war yet, they soon will be. Thanks to the liberal media.

"This is becoming very tiring."

Yes, it is. Maybe we should just declare Monday "National Pi$$ on the Qu'ran" Day and get it over with.

When the Saudis start showing some respect for the Bible, I'll be concerned about anyone's treatment of the Koran.

China, Saudi, and other countries throws you in jail for having a bible or kill you. All the MSM can go to hell. They will do anything to get our guy's killed and lose this war.

Yep, three and a half years for them to start all the investigations, try to start hearings on impeachment and even if unsuccessful, will tie up everyone trying to fight this instead of fighting the WOT.

Sorry, this scares me because it is such a concerted effort, with the Dems, the media pushing so hard. My hope is that they are pushing too hard and people get sick of this crap. I know I am but I still get discouraged when we are getting bombarded with this crap all the time.

Whine, whine...

Artists get money from Nat Endowment for the Arts to put a pic of Jesus in a jar of urine.

LOL....I like that idea.

I would have preferred to see the title of the article by Reuters or AP should to read, "Koran Sprayed with Disinfectant".

Think how many more lives would be saved if you could scare the terrorists to urninate on their (un)holy book:)

You're right but I think pushing for an impeachment while a war is on is a bridge too far for them. Wouldn't surprise me if they tried, though.

But I am getting lots of laughs over this story. The same people who want to chase god from every niche in society are OUTRAGED! over the treatment of terrorists' Korans. It's just too funny.

Robert Mapplethorpe is somewhere in NYC planning his next tax payer funded 'art exhibition.'

Would that it were so. But our "provocative", "confrontational", "transgressive", "cutting edge" artists are effete little nancy-boys, to a man. They wouldn't dare do such a thing. They only pour abuse on their own culture, safe in the knowledge that hard men stand guard over their candy asses 24/7.

If they just call it performance art and apply for a grant with the NEA, would that solve the problem for all the liberals in the media? That should do the trick.
