Ted, don't you get it? Why does this story get SOOOOO much coverage? An intolerant, misguided pastor of a small church is getting international coverage for his stupid publicity stunt, and EVERYONE is making a big deal out of it.

No, Ten, its you who don't get it. You sit in your ivory tower and pretend everyone is like you. This country has a problem....its called evangelical America. They are nearly as rabid and extremist in their views as Islamic radicals. This guy wants to burn 200 Koran.....and you are surprised this is news. Come out of your tower Ten.

Hillary isn't stupid. She knows that the media will not listen to her fake plea. She could have simply condemned the plans and be done with it, but she instead repeats her condemnation and in the process draws more attention to it. Now Obama is making public statements against it as well.

Like I said.....I listened to her "fake plea". She is one very tired lady. She doesn't need any more sh*t.

I realize how offensive burning the Koran is to Muslims, but that ought to be more reason to ostracize this pastor and put the spike on the story. NOT make it front-page news.

And that's what both Clintons are trying to do. No one gains from this guy's craziness.

Why don't you criticize Palin for her fake plea?

Someone should also tell muslims world wide to pull their heads out of their medieval behinds as well - this is ridiculous to start killing people over burning symbols.
