#1 "a police front man said on Wednesday."

Why the use of the term Front Man? It appears to me the Indonesian Police, are doing A Good Thing By your use of that phrase (which has a negative connotation)you imply they are Not doing the best they can. Could the reason be Conservative PC, where we are not supposed to say anything positive about Muslims/Islam?

#2 Fred's site uses a cute system to substitute words, like "Front man" for "spokesman". I could also substitute "you" with" wadded-panty lib apologist for muzzies".

See? It works fine

This issue has come up before in different contexts, like "maimed" for "wounded". I believe the text substitution got started back when copyright trolls were trying to extort websites. Righthaven was one of them that Rantburg has particular problems with, if memory serves.

#4 I best like the Fredisms 'illusory sovereignty' and 'Sherlocks' to name two. His inlines are the best dark humor ever.

#5 Does the questioning include wet face towels, pliers and blowtorches? I sure hope so.
