If there is anything more fearsome than radical Islam it must be the French labor movement.

"People do not understand to what point -- outside the Catholic Church which we can attack and which is, one has to say, very lenient -- it has become impossible to criticise religious things," he said.
I'm amazed that someone actually said it.

Loud and clear - this has nothing to do with Muslims oversensitive consciences or moral outrage it is about POWER.
this is a line in the sand.

The very lame, quite borin, ultra-innocuous cartoons in question.
Meanwhile over in the moose-limb media, we are treated to an endless array of sweet, nice-nice images that never offend civilized people.

Looks like we have a Perfect PC Storm. The PC tolerance weenies have to choose between defending an intolerant religion or not tolerating an intolerant religion. Quite the quandry (hehehehehe!).

You know the French, always on the lookout for a reason to call a massive work-stoppage or street demo. They'll have a lot of fun with this one.

What really shocks me is that the DailyKOS.com Kosacks have a thread up asking American lefties to buy as many Danish products as possible and to try to publish the offending cartoons as much as possible in the USA.
WTF? They are on our side on this! The American liberals are on our side on this!

Occasionally liberal and conservative positions will merge with each other on some issue or the other.
Remember, though, they may be right, but bet your house it's for the wrong reasons.
