Dina: Can you offer a link that shows any of the 12 Danish cartoonists involved in the Muhammed controversy have "been burned to death"?

While we'd love to keep the discussion, uh, spirited, it seems this thread is frequently crossing the line of civility. I'd prefer not to delete comments, but if the personal attacks continue, I'll start. Thanks.

Bowler A mentions "juicy porn." Isn't that an odd choice of adjective? Is he decrying it, or is he a fan?

You're right, Erik. "Unequivocal" is definitely too strong a word. Thanks.

Re: Minnesota VFW pulls support for pro-war rally

paulschmelzer — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 09:45:34 -0000

It's Repya who asserted the VFW was involved and then pulled support due to its stance against the Iraq war. Paul's followup story, linked above, corrects Repya's wrong assumptions.

Tom Swift knows all this, of course, as he brings up our Soros funding regularly. Rather than focus on the CIM's broad funder support, he fixates on Soros (although, curiously, he accused me of lying about such funding, later revealing he didn't know the Open Society Institute was a Soros organization). He chooses to ignore all the places we've publicly listed or linked to our funders, and his comment here is proof: it comes a few days after I gave him the same list that appears above, as well as links to the CIM's donor page, Wikipedia page and articles, both here and at Minnesota Monitor, where one can learn about our funders.
