"Pastor Jones just wanted 15 minutes of celebrity whoredom," explained the protestor, aptly named Paula Pope. "He's a short-sighted, idiotic, fanatical narcissist."

Her remarks left me uneasy. Could this have been avoided, had we in the media denied the narcissistic Jones the mirror of publicity? Possibly - although I would argue it was the warnings from generals and politicians which transformed the Dove Outreach Center from obscurity into headline news. Warnings which the Obama administration clearly felt had to be made.


Of course you tool.

The justification is nonsense. Unfortunately something Galloway was guilty of last night. It isn't newsworthy GG when a whack job who has a handful of demented followers decides to burn a few books. You don't put him on TV, you put him in the nuthouse.
