Burn out the day

Perhaps we can file this intervention by Sarah Palin in the "things that aren't analogous" file:

"Book burning is antithetical to American ideals," she wrote. "People have a constitutional right to burn a Koran if they want to, but doing so is insensitive and an unnecessary provocation — much like building a mosque at Ground Zero."

The peaceful practice of basketball and religion is just like a book burning.

One more thing.  The title of this article on the Huffington Post: "Sarah Palin: Burning Quran 'Antithetical to American Ideals.'"  That doesn't quite capture her view, I think.

  1. I don't really see that as an argument.  It's the statement of two opinions.

  2. This morning on the local Christian radio, they had the right name for that pastor: "the village idiot".
     
    And on this one, I'm with John: you can't compare the two. It's just a horrible analogy.
