We Are Amused

How long before we start hearing people screaming "Censorship!"?

Koran burner Derek Fenton booted from his job at NJ Transit

He exercised his Constitutional Rights.  Good for him.  NJ Transit chose to exercise theirs.  I feel bad for the guy, he has a family and he's probably basically a nice guy.  The hysteria over the not-exactly-a-Mosque is hurting a lot of people and serves the purposes of nobody except racists like Pamela "Geller" Oshry.

Batshit Wins!

Tea Party Wins Again; O'Donnell Beats Castle In Del. 

Good grief. At least it's good news for Democrats,

So the idea here is...
