it "feels" like this story is going to stick around for a while. The DUmmies will say it's a Rove plot to distract from the Nuclear Option that is about to explode

Freedom of speech and the press is not freedom to yell fire in a crowded theater.

What Mike I. and NW did was knowingly and deliberately throw a container of gasoline into a smoldering apartment full of panicky individuals. They also knew it would result in a massive upheaval of ignorant and hostile Muslims throughout the world.

As one Rush L. states ever so eloquently and often, "words have meaning." This individual and publication should (don't hold your breath) be brought to task and charged with criminal intent.

If flushing a Koran down a toilet is all that it takes to get these fanatical animals to reveal themselves, then perhaps we should all indulge and make it a campaign to flush as many as we can get our hands on.

Is there any doubt that the MSM is on the side of our enemies?

They write stories attacking our troops, our Secretary of Defense, our President, with only the slightest checking.

If a story is appearing about democrats, such as the hilaryfundraiser'sgoingtojail type story, then the MSM is silent.

And, of course the "apology" was written by Evan Thomas-


wasn't he the one that said during the campaign that the media would add 15% points to Kerry's side of the election?

Yeah, he's a big Bush fan...

"make it a campaign to flush as many as we can get our hands on."

Let's do it one page at a time and get some use of those pages before flushing them.

If you really want to bring out the fanatics. Have Women walk naked through the streets each holding the Koran.

"Newsweek regrets it got part of the story wrong."Correction, it should read,"Newsweek regrets it got caught fabricating a story."

Newsweek lied, people died? Is it time to pull Newsweek out of Iraq?

I once owned a copy of the Koran, paper back construction. When I was done with it I threw it in the trash. I wasn't dumb enough to believe I could flush a book down a toilet.

So where's my fatwa?

Isakoff and Newsweek's owners have blood on their hands, and, like Lady MacBeth, no move they make can wash the stain away. Indeed, "All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand."

There is NOT A DROP of blood on any American's hands in this matter! Not Newsweek, nor the camp guards or officers, nor any Pentagon Official. That is until we get this panicy statement from a Pentagon spokesman: Told of what the NEWSWEEK source said, DiRita exploded, "People are dead because of what this son of a bitch said."

THAT panicky statement WILL cause our blood to be shed for in reaction to that kind of chicken-little, blame-everybody-but-the-preps mindset always brings on more violence.

Doesn't matter what any American SOB did at Camp X-Ray, or any SOB called over to the SOBs at Newsweek. NOT one of those SOBs killed a single soul.

The "religious" hate-cultists did. The mobs that killed, and the mullahs that fired them up.
