Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says congressional lawmakers are discussing taking some action in response to the Koran burnings of a Tennessee pastor that led to killings at the U.N. facility in Afghanistan and sparked protests across the Middle East, Politico reports.
Sen. Lindsey Graham said Congress might need to explore the need to limit some forms of freedom of speech, in light of Tennessee pastor Terry Jones’ Quran burning, and how such actions result in enabling U.S. enemies.

Ironically enough, yeah. If there is a government action against Jones then I'd bet the ACLU backs him up.
Cowards always take the cowardly approach. Qurans make good kindling on chilly days.
I thought it was satire too, at first. What the Pastor did is expose Muslims for what they are, a murderous cult. If they are going after 1st amendment rights then they should start with Islam.
My only problem with the pastor is that he wasted perfectly good toilet paper.
And recall the guy who made the mistake of hauling down a Mexican flag flying in front of an American high school. But Bill Ayres can stand on an American flag ...
So it seems to me that the question turns on whether or not the item belongs to the person `defiling’ it. Presumably the Koran belonged to the minister.
You’re right. Case closed. Linseed and Dingy Harry can go pound sand.
What a stinking coward and appeaser. The mozlemz can’t even chop [ban-worthy phrase] because it’s too close to their [unladylike term for anatomical part]es.
This old fool has senile dementia, and the ‘rats can get him to go out and say anything because they “guarantee” his continual re-election, term after term. And guess who’s going to succeed him? Anybody? Can I have a Rory? He’s a corrupt thug off the old block.
I’ve got a probe for them.
So lemme get this straight... Lindsay Graham intends to respond to the burning of the Koran by burning the U.S. Constitution.
Did I leave anything out?
I'm not aware that Muslims have needed an excuse to kill our civilians and our soldiers in the past. I don't see where this stupid stunt on the part of Jones necessarily made it worse.
I hope you don’t have a cake in the oven.
Let’s get this straight. moozlums indiscriminately kill everyone almost randomly when they feel insulted. moozlums always feel insulted about something or other. moozlums have been grinding people to a bloody pulp since the inception of their so-called “religion”. Now...lindsey (I hate Free America) graham wants to abridge my Constitutional rights. Hey, lindsey, I’ll burn a kuran in your honor this afternoon, you clueless putz.
We’re having barbecue tonight. No chance of my blowing stack causing a cake to fall. Thanks for your concern. ;-)
And pardon my language.
I guess if there were a mass burning; they’d just end up killing each other off in the millions to “protest” it, ‘cause they’d sure be frustrated trying to “git” everybody. So, DUH!
I recall a movie or two about the state and book burning.. hmmmm.
Whatever happen to FReedom of Speech , expression, thought.. or are we all under the control of thugs in 3 piece suits and black robes?
agree totally. If he doesn’t get the money it because the committee is racist.
Do you seriously think the whores that are the Congress of the United States care whether it is Constitutional ?
