#1 In a sense yes.

We should also have frozen the accounts of CAIR. That would have sent the right message.

#2 Hmmm - These are lovely detailed photos of bridges you have in your suitcase, sir. Are you a collector?

#3 If the message sent was "We don't particularly care for advocates of anti-Semitism and violence against women", then I'd say that it was a pretty damn good one.

What's he complaining about? Visa's loss is Mastercard's gain...

#6 sends the wrong message to the Islamic world about America's willingness to listen to what Muslims have to say."

to the contrary...I think it sends exactly the message we are trying to communicate about our willingness to listen to what Muslims have to say. Expect it to get more pointed in the future.

#7 Now asscroft is trying to stop bridge picture collecting? Typical. I don't give a flip about photos, but don't mess around with my sketches of rusty bolts and wild ass cracks.
