Okay, now I believe that it was satire. But considering some of the statements that are really getting made these days - did you hear about the schools in the UK that have decided to stop teaching about the Holocaust because their Muslim pupils don't believe in it? - it can be hard to distinguish satire from reality. I know that Nifong couldn't have said what was attributed to him because he would been crucified for it. But I don't know that about President Davis, unless as you say, it came to the attention of Fox and the rightwing blogosphere. For a real-world example, consider the craven response of the MSM to the Danish cartoons controversy. The MSM refused to print the cartoons and basically cowered. Most didn't even report that this was a deliberate act of whipping up political hysteria months after the original cartoons had been published in Denmark, and reprinted in the Arab world with no outcry. The track record of liberal papers in covering up for Islamists is real enough too. You'd think CAIR had nothing at all to do with apologizing for terrorism if you only read about them in the MSM.
