Which puts me in a position to lambast the faculties of texans since gwb would never have reached the white house if they hadn't elected him guv'ner (how many times?) to begin with.

That would be larger numbers than either of those, so maybe it's not such a problem after all.

And Apple II went through like 5 years or more and at least 3 versions before they came up with something called a MacIntosh

The answer to the question would be Catholics and their passive-aggressive bullshit.

It was a cheeseburger. Do muslims have the same restrictions that jews do against mixing meat and milk? That's assuming there's any actual dairy in McDonald's processed "cheese", that is.
Seriously, though, the guy went to a Christian church, his policies reflect Christian values. I really don't see any reason to think Obama is other than Christian.

Re: Well, no shit. Thanks CNN.
Many American Muslims will feel as if they are second-class citizens and it could push some angry young men toward violence.
What.... We fucking burn our own flag, We burn our presidents in effigy, we burn dollar bills... yet it's a big fucking deal that we burn a Koran?
Nobody need stay in the US if they don't like the fact that we have the right to desecrate or venerate anything we feel like, on no more justification than we feel like doing so.
Edit:
And another thing......
What the fuck kind of retarded double standard is it that they can build a mosque within two blocks of the WTC site and I'm an insensitive prick for saying it's in supremely poor taste, and I'm also supposed to be sensitive to emotional weaknesses the poor young Muslim men who might blow me to bits because some Christian I don't know, and probably don't even like, decides to burn a pile of Korans?
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

and no, muslims don't have the flesh/dairy taboo, nor are they forbidden from eating all the seafood that practicing Jews cannot.
