Bow Wow
This dog brings you this story, about a man thrown off of a Qantas flight because –get this– he was wearing a T-shirt that had a picture of George Bush and a caption that stated, “World’s Number One Terrorist.”
Regardless of how you feel about the war or about George Bush, anyone claiming to support a Western-style democracy must concede that the criticism of elected leaders, whether orally, via print or even on clothing, is a necessarily tolerated act. The actions of the airline are indeed disturbing and saddening in a deeply profound manner.
