Egyptian Parliament members have submitted an order to Government demanding that American singer Madonna be prohibited from entering Egyptian soil.

[…]

The demand came after Madonna announced that she will celebrate the Jewish New Years in Israel and that she had converted to Judaism.

So the fact that Madonna’s public persona represents all that Islams sees as decadent in the West, it was OK for her to visit Egypt until she was tained with Jewishness. Not that the Egyptian Parliament has any judenhass!

Gold medal effort in question leading

[source, source]

Senator, Prime Minister Allawi told Congress today that democracy was taking hold in Iraq and that the terrorists there were on the defensive. Is he living in the same fantasyland as the president?

This is the question asked by a reporter after Kerry’s response to Iraqi PM Allawi’s speech. Could the bias and disrespect for the President be any clearer?

Of course, this ties in with the press corp asking President Bush about the situation in Iraq while ignoring Allawi, who was standing right next to Bush. An obsession with attacking Bush or soft bigotry? It’s so hard to tell anymore.
