Renew My Cancellation

Newsweek gets stuck in its plumbing. Plus: Happy Gay Anniversary. What if the Cessna had been shot down? McCarrick once again. And much, much more.

(Page 3 of 19)

A Newsweek article referring to an urban myth, the incredible flushing Korans of Guantanamo Bay, may be both dumb and unprofessional, but it's not inflammatory.

p>Condoleezza Rice, a Christian woman, referring to the Koran as "holy," a politically correct bromide intended to show one's respect for the faith of others but which sends out sorts of weird and wonderful mixed messages -- that's inflammatory. br> -- Martin Kelly br> Glasgow, Scotland /p> p> The best "explanation" I've seen so far came from a guest on The Charlie Rose Show (on PBS for those of you playing at home). The problem wasn't the Newsweek report. The "bigger" problem was that people were so quick to believe this story because the United States had lost its credibility. There you have it folks. It's George Bush's fault! br> -- Randy Gammon br> Drexel, Missouri /p>
