GAINESVILLE - FBI agents visited today with a minister of a small Florida church that plans to burn the Quran on Sept. 11, as public safety became a paramount concern and President Barack Obama added his voice to the chorus of opposition. Elsewhere, hundreds of angry Afghans burned an American flag and chanted "Death to the Christians" to protest the planned burning of Islam's holiest text. Obama urged the Rev. Terry Jones to "listen to those better angels" and call off his plan.(continued)

I find Foxnews more and more annoying. I hate their morning shows, they tend toward adolescent humor, Hooters girls, porn stars and such and keep people like Geraldo and O’Really on the payroll. I like a lot of what Beck has to offer (altho he can also be annoying) and Stossel and the Judge are good, but really, they aren’t great they are just better than the rest of what’s out there. The problem is, I don’t want to be entertained, I want to be informed. I can do that better online.

Part of me wonders if this was all a ruse to draw out the crazies who will burn a koran anyway.

And guess who the MSM will associate the book burners with? Hmmm...

BINGO.

I can’t tell if it’s a set-up to begin with- OR- if seeing an opportunity/crisis in the making- the powers that be decided to play it out...or WTH is really going on here.

Orwell might have something illuminating to say...

gave up with OR after he sucked up to bozo and then said he was born here because there was an AD in the paper.
Hannity is a broken record and a coward who cannot discuss issues like homosexuality or it’s agenda, abortion etc.

His Beckel guest and some others are certainly not worth watching and if Hannity gets a backbone then I’ll be tuning in not that he cares seeing as he has made millions by now

I bet they're all patting each other on the backs in the White House like they're the Kennedy Administration who blockaded the Russian ships off Cuba and caused them to withdraw their ballistic nuclear missiles.

Three days from now they'll open up the papers and see that the President's approval rating has dropped even further and that America believes that the President once again did the wrong and stupid thing.

And they just will not be able to understand how it can possibly be... as they look at one another with puzzled and worried faces.

Which would help keep such new members out of gambling halls and abortion clinics.

Only if they allowed themselves to be chained and locked up in the basement of the church for a couple years.........

I thought it was Charles “The Hammer” Martel that did that.

That was in France itself, Western Europe, Tours, (Poitiers) October 10, 732

Great idea, hmama. Let’s have one in every backyard we know. Hibachis in town.

Pork’s inexpensive.

A good brat & sauerkraut with hot mustard & redskin potato salad.

That does it. I’m hungry.

This is the truth, but how many Baptist churches are NOT pastored by a similar douche

That's why I gave up searching for a place to worship.........I can get my own spiritual guidance in my own home with my bible.
