Give me a break -- he's taking credit for the story going national?

I think that Hugh was including himself in the larger universe of Internet-based commentators - who COLLECTIVELY promoted the Jill Stewart piece, and but he was NOT claiming sole credit for this non-traditional promotion, IMHO.

Boykin is far from the only Army officer to engage in football-player style evangelism. (Viz. Captain Steele in the book Blackhawk Down -- his real-life religiosity is toned down in the book, and toned down further in the movie, but he is the sort of guy who will preach to a subordinate and so is Boykin).

Christianity is foreign and terrifying to the lockstep lib-dems in the Times newsroom. That makes it the subject of today's Two Minutes' Hate. Boykin is just today's manifestation of Emmanuel Goldstein.

Boykin might be hated in the LA Times newsroom, but if that bothers him, all he has to do is bear in mind that Gray Davis is loved there, and Schwarzenegger, Bush, the Pope, and, oh yeah, that Jesus guy, are the folks the Times editorialists and reporters hate.

Hmmm... what was the name of that other hateful dude, you know, the one who was always fighting against the Jesus guy... ? Serpents, temptation, something like that. If only I didn't go to public schools and state universities I bet I'd know that dude's name. Think he's running the LA Times?

But is the Times even clean enough to be used as toilet paper?

I wouldn't touch the Times except with full HAZMAT gear, and then only from a distance.

That and the availability of USA Today on a driveway near your front door.

I've canceled my Time and Newsweek magazine subscriptions because I got sick of the biased reporting. So... is USA Today a better source, the?
