Up to Speed: Who Is Muhammad Cartoon Contest Organizer Pamela Geller?

181. I've seen much of DU come around today, and that's been good.

I think that initially people really didn't understand who she was or what this was really about.

I think there were some false assumptions that this even really was about free speech.

Most people backed away once they began to see what was really going away.

She's really good at this shit and I think this pretty much went exactly like she hoped it would. Now we just have to make sure that her use of the 1st amendment to claim victimhood in this scenario isn't allowed to proceed without challenge.

But you know what happens if you or I say "white", don't you? Some will cling to the notion of "black" and never be able to let go.

Anyway, I have to run out to attend a Ben Carson fundraiser, as he is apparently my new selection for POTUS. Cuba Gooding Jr was really good in the movie about him and I have become absolutely smitten. His political positions are completely irrelevant to me at this point.

for those who will actually use this against me, and they will.
