Damn straight

Yes, we do have the right to caricature God. The Pope and Jerry Falwell don't have the right to suppress freedom of speech or freedom of the press, and George W. Bush doesn't have it yet. This is the line no one gets to cross.

In the meantime, guess where the nerve center of the anti-free speech protest movement is? You guessed it, the Bush family's favorite Muslim country: that democratic stalwart and home of the Wahhabis, Saudi Arabia.

I do think that somebody is guinning all this up, but I read that dkos thing somewhere else first and I'm a little skeptical of it.

But you know I watch the pictures, and there are lots of Saudi flags, but there's also another Arab logo on green background with a sword which has different text. I don't speak the language, so I don't know for sure.

Here's what you need to know about who drummed up this ridiculous controversy and why. Denmark will be the acting president (a post that rotates) at the European Union when the International Atomic Energy Association is due to hear the EU's complaint against Iran's developement of a nuclear weapons program.

The ayatollahs want Denmark intimated for political as well as fundamentalist reasons. Then again, fundamentalism and politics always overlap.

I salute you for running an image of the cartoon -- and for the cleverness of finding one on the cover of a newspaper from France.
