I'm sure this one will be picked up by the blogosphere quickly enough, but that's never stopped me before.

In yet another fine example of a completely whack leftie wobbling off their meds in front of a reporter, we have a woman in New Zealand offering to have herself crucified, by Bush, if he'll promise not to command US forces into a war with Iraq. People like this set my teeth on edge, because they think this kind of stunt is perfectly OK but will come completely unhinged if, say, a radio talk show proposes to march all the Arabs into the sea.

And kudos to the NZ press, and the wire services, for picking this thing up and giving it a worldwide audience (present company included, of course). Every editor out there knows that if someone were to actually come at this nutjob with a hammer and some nails she'd be out the door so fast it would come off its hinges.

It's one thing to be a coward by staying silent. It's quite another to spew yellow from your mouth and call it bravery.
