    I like how he has co-opted the Inland North accent.
    Very political of him, if utterly transparent.

    Agreed, my fellow former bouncer in high-end gentlemen's clubs in Arizona.

    He was born in Hawaii, educated on both coasts, and married Chicago. But when teams go to the White House, it's "I'm a Chicago Guy."

    Of course, I always considered the greatness of Chicago to be based on citizens of the place who tell themselves it's wonderful because they're resigned to never getting to live in the superior cities on the coast.

    Meanwhile, the Messiah isn't showing much advocation for tolerance of religious freedom. Damn pastor should have been a Shiite cleric in Idaho. Then he'd been chirping from the west wing.

    Note: Although this was a valid international event, site liberals will probably want to skip this link since it was posted on the foxnews.com website.

    Hey, what do you expect? Billy Hayes was allowed to rot in a Turkish prison for five years before he got out. Surely, some kook preacher trying to convert Muslims in underground churches in Iran isn't going to be treated hospitably.

    What is the U.S. going to do? Recall its ambassador?

    Hayes went through hell but he was smuggling hashish.
