Apparently people out burning the Danish flag to protest the country’s allowing media outlets to publish cartoons of Mohammed without punishment are now “human rights activists.”

See, I always thought free speech was a human right, and that religious zealots who threaten violence in response to free speech they don’t like were the exact opposite of human rights activists.

Guess I was wrong.

Guess I was wrong.

Don’t be silly; there is no right or wrong in lala land!
You are simply “inappropriate!”

"Here lies, in honored glory, an American soldier, known but to God.”

The stakes are high. Whether the issue is the economy, or energy, or the federal courts or national security, the right answers are coming not from the Democrats, but from the Republicans. The surge of operations that began a year ago is succeeding. The only way to lose this fight is to quit. Richard M. Cheney, Vice President, 30 May, 2008

All flags should be manufactured with fire retardant fibers just to hack all the clowns off.
