He has recommended that each American schoolchild get a Middle Eastern pen-pal, though, with the current anthrax scare, I don’t suppose the US Postal Service is especially eager for a lot of envelopes with childlike handwriting from Mullah al-Mahrah’s fourth grade at the Sword of the Jew-Slayer Elementary School in Kandahar.

LOL

Thanks. I wonder how this guy would be on TV. Not that he doesn't write brilliantly.

Not only has Bush no plans to intern Muslim Americans; it wouldn’t surprise me if he interned himself, just to ‘send the right message’.

Now, that's a great line.

He's absolutely right of course. The media and political elites' unending righteous posturing over "intolerance" toward Muslims has been sickening. I remember Tom Brokaw's lower lip quivering in barely controlled rage over the "bigotry" displayed in some incidents following 9/11, and the almost nightly coverage of minor incidents with followup righteous admonitions against such behavior.

You know what? There are times that you and I sit diametrically opposed but this is one area we always, always agree on. This man is the best around.

I remember those kids...

We smeared 'em in kickball by stealing bases when they prayed.

Mathematicians everywhere have always seemed to be rather happy about working with Arabic numerals...

‘Extremism in the pursuit of moderation is no vice.’

This particular column is just chock-full of good lines.

In bombardment we made them be skins. Kept the school nurse busy all day with those rasberries on their chests.

Would those be the numerals the jihadin liberated from the Hindus?
