Shouldn't the New York Times be facing a HUGE class-action lawsuit?
I mean, if I knew about a gang of Chimps running around my neighborhood, stealing everybody's most sacred possessions, I'd be liable if I knowingly refused to report it to the police, wouldn't I?

Or do the Chimps now have the right to deputize other criminals? I don't understand how this law stuff works.

1. Yup, they are complicit.
In the Nuremburg trials they put the head of a newspaper on trial for his part.

5. I agree however;
It does come at a particularly opportune time for 'our' side!

7. Only if our side wishes to take advantage of the
opportunity.

And they're not very good at that.

6. I for one am grateful to the NYT for helping the pResident
protect me from those lurking al Qaida Quakers. :sarcasm:
