You can hardly improve on this kind of stuff

"A prominent Saudi Islamic cleric has issued a fatwa, or religious edict, against Mickey Mouse, whom he characterized as an agent of Satan sent to corrupt young minds.

Sheikh Mohammed Al-Munajid told Saudi Arabia's Al-Majd Television that his beef with Mickey is that he is a mouse, a creature that Islam sees as "repulsive and corrupting."

Al-Munajid explained that Islamic law refers to the mouse as "little corrupter" and a creature that is "steered by Satan," and grants permission to all Muslims to "kill [mice] in all cases."
Therefore, according to Islamic law, insisted the sheikh, "Mickey Mouse should be killed."


This is so hilariously stupid and twisted on its own that I'm at a loss for how to make it better. . .

. . . so I'll just say of Imam Al-Moron bin Fudd, as Bugs Bunny would, "What a Maroon!"

Hat tip to Mark Krikorian of National Review and the Center for Immigration Studies who found and linked to this incredible item on the web.

God help poor Bugs Bunny if they ever decide to pay attention to some of his one liners from the older cartoons (they frequently had double meanings). He'd end up on the varmint hit list as well.

Imagine what they think of Deputy Dogg.

I can only begin to imagine what their reaction would be to some of the "toys" that are being sold in this country. For example, the Bratz line of dolls. These things are no "Betsy Wetsy's".

I went to that Bratz site and didn't see anything that shocks me more than how some of the older grade schoolers are dressed at school bus stops
