Why isn't The Press Club being censured for allowing Ahmadinejad to speak?
Or CSPAN for broadcasting it, for that matter? I thought the man was evil and must not be given a forum?

What am I missing?

2. Because they aren't an arena in which the minds of our impressionable children
may be corrupted by him...so was the freeper faction complaint on WJ this morning re: WJ....

5. Beat me to it - I was just wondering the same thing

6. Because if the media talks about this - or O.J. or Britney -
they aren't talking about Iraq and Shrub's fiasco. Here's a question I've got. Who's got the greater body count - Bush or Ahmadinejad? I hold Shrub responsible for more than a million deaths. Ahmadinejad is so demonized - has he killed more?
