You have to think of every cartoonist as basically being that guy on Hardball who kept saying "HE APPEASED HE APPEASED" over and over again.

The thing about the term "Islamist" is that it perpetuates the myth that all muslim terrorists are part of a sinister global network of terror masterminded by a James Bond-style villain in a hollowed-out volcano, as opposed to a hundred disparate groups with specific local grievances. Obviously there is some common ground (death to america إن شاء الل) but to use one blanket term is misleading and counter-productive.

didn't it come out in the lawsuit that mcdonald's served their coffee at a hilariously dangerous temperature, and the woman's labia were literally fused to her skin when she spilled it

I mean yeah part of it was her fault but you don't expect your skin to fuse to itself when you spill coffee on your lap

And OJ was found not guilty because a dumbass cop tampered with evidence but we don't let facts get in the way of a good talking point.

last time i was on a flight stopping off at jfk they had a sign up that basically said "be aware at this point we no sense of humour wrt jokes about 9/11, bombs ect".

Even in Australia they have signs at the airports that say words to the effect of, 'if you make bomb jokes you'll be hosed in the rear end' and we haven't been attacked by terrorists yet.

Can any Americans answer this: are there really brown people going through without being searched or has this only happened in loving Amsterdam. Is there really a 'PC gone mad' situation in American airports? Because I'm finding it a little hard to believe but at the same time I'm wondering why every right-wing cartoonist is hammering the talking point. Did Glenn Beck say it's happening based on an unsourced anecdote or something?

I know I'm thinking too hard about this but sometimes I need to see the pattern in things.

Conservative cartoonists again show themselves to be morons with the King stuff. He wasn't shot during his "dream" speech, he died almost 5 years after that. The same kind of conservatives who draw those cartoons hated him in '68 because he opposed the Vietnam War and because they thought he was soundin more like a commie every day.

God, 1968 was a crazy year for America. I'm glad I wasn't around for that.
