I'm outraged

And we let language like this occur? Is anyone else OUTRAGED?

To applause from his audience of 300 members of Atheists for Human Rights, Mr
Ellison said he would not accuse the Bush administration of planning 9/11
because "you know, that's how they put you in the nut-ball box - dismiss
you".

Because that is a nut-ball comment! Anytime you have to confirm or deny something "after the fact," it is hardly ever sincere and rarely true.

After his speech was reported, Mr Ellison said he accepted that Osama bin Laden
was responsible for 9/11. But his demagogic comments threaten to plunge him in
controversy.

Where is the outcry and shame at this man's comments?
