A good old Baptist Imam

A local pastor issues a fatwa against nine church members who disagree with his politics. If there's any justice in this world, this imam will have nobody from his flock in church this morning, except to protest him and those who voted against the dem 9. What else can you say about stuff like this? Except that he'll probably be getting his White House invitation within a week...

UPDATE: Pastor resigns. No word yet on the White House invitation.

Name: Joker & Thief

Location: Boston/Paris

Somewhere beneath all the inane clichés that politicians and the media bandy about, there lies a true Franco-American relationship that stems from a deep appreciation and fascination with each other's language, culture and society. This is where we live, below the radar, exploring the mundane, finding pleasure in the details, and sharing our passion for another culture with our students. We are educators, teaching English in Paris and French in Boston. Trained and training at the Sorbonne and Harvard, respectively, we choose here to let our café conversation spill out onto the sidewalk. Others should feel free to eavesdrop or join the conversation through comments.
