Huh.

At first… A Florida pastor said Thursday he called off his plan to burn copies of the Quran based on assurances that a planned Islamic center and mosque near ground zero in New York would be moved …
But then… — an assertion rejected by the center’s visionary.
Huh. The *crazy* is all over this story. Also… “visionary?”
I’m sure the change of mind had nothing to do with: The FBI visited Jones at the Dove Center on Thursday, according to Jeffrey Westcott, special agent in charge of the Jacksonville, Florida, bureau.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
My favorite aspect of this whole thing was that the local fire department was going to intervene to stop him from burning the Korans if he tried to do that.
You know _why_ they were going to do that?
Because doing that would break a city ordinance against members of the public _burning trash_.
Somehow, this doesn’t sound like much of a improvement in the situation from a propaganda viewpoint. 😀
Let’s coin a new word… Delusionary… a faux Visionary who cons people into a Great Leap Backwards.
Jeeze, I thought that was Glenn Beck and Holy Geese replacing the Holy Ghost. 🙂
> Delusionary… a faux Visionary who cons people into a Great Leap Backwards
A description that can be applied to a vast number of people throughout history. A type of person that you’d hope would become less important as information becomes more widely available… but, nope.
If Glenn Beck isn’t gay, he’s the gayest-acting straight person I’ve ever seen.
But that’s just one patriot’s opinion. 🙂
The cancellation resulted in one-inch headlines in the Richmond (VA) Times-Dispatch. What makes that noteworthy is that three murders and a shooting were on the front page of the second section, and in smaller type. It would appear that the “implications” of the burning rates higher than a neighbor’s life. Journalism school probably doesn’t teach perspective to any way we’d consider reasonable.
