Considering what's finally coming out, I'm glad I held off posting anything about Jill Carroll. It's very tempting in the blogosphere to be first on the spot with the outrage, and I've erred on both sides -- both posting a strident opinion too quickly, and holding off too long when I probably should have gone for it. This time I'm glad I waited and I'm also glad that from the sounds of it, Carroll is not another CPT'r. I hope her statements continue to keep her firmly on that side of the line.

Comment Info and Policy:
1) You must have Javascript enabled in your browser in order to comment (blame the spammers). If you don't know what that is, you're probably fine.
2) HTML is on, so basic html should work. Raw links will be made auto-clickable, too, so even if you don't know html you can just paste in the link and it should work fine. Keep the "http://" in it.
3) Comments are generally unmoderated, which means I don't necessarily agree with the tone and tenor of everything posted. In fact, sometimes people post things they don't really mean just to make other people look bad. The internet is an anonymous place for the most part. That said...
4) I welcome you to post here. I'd love to have your input, agree, disagree or just offer a different data point, really. If I didn't want any participation, I'd turn off comments. Be aware, however, that this blog and the comments section exist for my entertainment. Therefore, I reserve ALL RIGHTS here, including the right to remove any or all comments on nothing more than a whim. Please don't even bother complaining. I'm the one providing the space and the free news and thought buffet. I don't owe anyone anything.
Anyone who posts here will be treated as my guest. That means I'm happy to be polite as a default, but if anyone is rude to the host they'll be unceremoniously shown the door.
It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."
5) Enjoy your stay!
Sorry, what is a CPT'r?

Christian Peacemaking Team'r -- the guys who blamed the coalition more than they blamed the people who kidnapped them (and murdered one of them) after their release.
