Poll Results: Rube in Aruba bigger than Book 'Wetting'
Okay, this post title was intentionally provocative .... but the issue isn't .....

And there was no poll except my own as I channel surfed this morning.

On the morning news shows, the story of the missing HS kid in Aruba is getting much higher billing than the 'news dump' story of the guard pissing on the Koran.

The 'media' are sooooo fucking predictable.

Forgive me but I was distracted by the Downing Street Minutes.

Because she's from Birmingham? That is a very bigoted statement. Your liberal compassion truly amazes me!

5. You clearly missed the opening line of my post
which was "Okay, this post title was intentionally provocative .... but the issue isn't ....."

That should have given you a clue as to my intent.

Now if you want to parse that out to calling me a bigot, have at it.

Here's another post of mine on this topic, that gives lie to your assertion.

6. No, I saw it.

If I had started a posst with some kind of ethnic slur, then said, "this was intentionally provocative," I don't think I would get any slack cut. If you make a racist comment, I will call you on it. It's that simple.

On edit: The other post seems to confirm my original opinion.
