Pat --

How are they "trying to take it away from us"? In what sense do
Muslims in foreign countries have the capacity to take our free press
away from us? You've got a tendency to treat Osama bin Landen as
though he's landing transport ships in New York, not dying of kidney
failure in a hole in Afghanistan. The fundamentalist protest against
political cartoons in Denmark is pathetic -- and only dangerous to the
people in Danish embassies in Muslim countries.
