Blackmail the Universe

So I'm a bit behind today. I started out feeling a bit odd. I got that out of my system and am back to my usual tricks.

I saw this over at Michael Duff's Blog and decided that it was time to add my two cents.

I think the article nails the topic in a way that American media has been willfully ignoring. Maybe it is because of liberal bias; maybe it is that for Europeans, it is as Bernard Lewis put it "Europe will be Islamic by the end of the century". I imagine this is of some consternation to atheistic Europe.

The article draws some interesting comparisons to the political state of the UK, which my American readers may or may not be aware of in anyway more that peripherally.

I recommend that you read the article. A point of interest, in the article it seems that it is a foregone conclusion that G.W. Bush will remain president for the next four years and that Kerry will do little to upset the current order.

Hmm. Need coffee.
