"They wouldn't meet our standards for what we publish in the paper," said Leonard Downie, Jr., executive editor of The Washington Post, which ran a front-page story on the issue Friday, but has not published the cartoons. "We have standards about language, religious sensitivity, racial sensitivity and general good taste."


Downie of the Wahsington Post is the same a**hole who approved publication of a cartoon mocking a American soldier who was a double amputee.

I guess he is only sensitive to Muslim and anti-American interests.

Actually, if you dig deep enough, you'll find that Downie, along with all the other placaters, are really scared sheep-less regarding this issue. To prove my point, if those who didn't like the crucifix-in-urine display started beheading people, you'd see those types of 'art-work' displays getting yanked from museums and such. Some people are just too afraid to stand up for freedom of speech.

Downie is one butt head that deserves a barrage of Freeper e-mail.

What horses pa-toot.

Downie knows that Americans and American soldiers won't put a fatwa on his slimy a**, and hunt him down and kill him.

On the other hand, I'm sure Downie knows Salman Rushdie, and how Rushdie had to hide out from the Death Cult of the Moon God...

I think the term for Downie and his brethren in the MSM is "chickens**t".
