"Before Sept 11 the worst thing for a white man was to be called a bigot
...now we know there's something worse, like being beheaded....." This brilliant and hysterically delivered bit of wisdom was the brainfart of a caller on C-SPAN just now after he screeched on and on about Arabs are "trying to kill us". "They're trying to kill us!!!" And he came to the conclusion that anything the government wants to do in terms of destroying privacy rights is A-okay with him.

Are these guys all cowards, or what?

2. One of the Ass-Jacks on Colin Quinn last night was saying something simila
He said that it's one race that's the problem so we should just profile that one race and take care of the problem. I never thought I'd see racism so open and so accepted in my lifetime. I thought the Hispanics had it bad before Sept. 11, but at least if one said something so blanketing and ignorant then they were called on it by someone. Now if someone says something against arabs or muslims people will just nod their heads gravely and accept it. It's disgusting.
