#2 Nobody in the current administration will read this and if one does they will dismiss it a part of the great right wing conspiracy and an anomoly.

#3 Actually I don't think this opinion piece is particularly good. It is overly long and filled with redundancies.

There are many articulate, knowledgeable (even scholar) apostates from Islam who deserve to get space in one of the major dailies some day - at least for one op ed. I used to write to the WaPo frequently to advocate for this. Maybe. Maybe. Some day.

#4 Lord Garth, I imagine the Washington Times would be more open to the idea...or the third one -- I think it's called the Examiner. The Post isn't quite as hopeless as the New York Times only because Washington isn't as hospitable to the Theatre, and all the creative dears who inhabit it.

#5 ..yes, New York is more amenable to good ~~posers~~ actors who want to play politicians than Washington with ~~posers~~ politicians who play badly as actors.
