swing away

Ed Brayton has made bashing WorldNetDaily into a hobby (though he doesn't have time to make it a career). His latest fodder: an article about Wiccans who dare to worship on military bases, and the Christian fundamentalists clamoring to inhibit their rights.

Brayton writes:
Perhaps the most ironic aspect of the whole thing is that these are the first people to wrap themselves in the flag and pat themselves on the back for their patriotism. Yet they urge their followers to refuse to join the military solely because other religions get to join up and practice their faith too? Not only are they willing to shred the first amendment to deny others the same rights they demand for themselves, they're willing to weaken our national defense if the military doesn't give in to their demands for religious purity. I can scarcely imagine anything less patriotic than that.
I give Mr. Brayton one week to discover something less patriotic--and likely in the stream of drivel we all know as WorldNutDaily.
