And the "Captain Obvious Headline of the Year Award" goes to:

This WaPo / AP wire report:

Race Was Motive for Over Half the Hate Crimes in 2003, FBI Reports

As Ellen said this morning when I read the headline to her, "ya think?"

Yet another example of how ridiculous "qualifying" a crime based on a particular motive can become.

The FBI report shows that crimes categorized as anti-Islamic remained at about the same level in 2003 -- 149 crimes -- as the year before.

WOW - that averages out to only 3 per state per year.

Year-end bonus for the CAIR PR guy!
