I do not see how trashing muslims does anything to further progressive values in any way. I assume that other lists would find sort of comment more compelling. No one trashed a Muslim. I trashed a hypocrite. if it it so repugnant to him I would suggest he retire, which he won't do ($$$$) What are "progressive values"? Yours, I suppose. I would also suppose you feel yourself part of the oppressed masses sitting there with tenure behind your state-funded pentium. You and Mr. Jackson are the kind of hypocrites the West breeds. Weak. Ya'll are not Nelson Mandela, or even Cassius Clay. Those guys risked something. You are just worried about your 401K plan like everyone else. gmt These are my views and not those of the PUCT >
