On Friday the BBC reported that Martha Stewart ‘barred from UK’. It’s not like she threatened to redecorate Parliament.
Then today I read the CNN report: Boy George denied U.S. visa.
The War On Terror™ continues… 😈

Mark Twain
"There are two novels that can change a bookish 14-year old's life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."
"The presence of those seeking the truth is infinitely to be preferred to the presence of those who think they've found it."

We couldn’t do better in the “tit for tat” than Boy George? Granted we have refused Cat Stevens but still I don’t think it still matches banning the “domestic diva”. This has gotta hurt.
If they want to ban someone guilty of real crimes then they should have banned Shrub from visiting. I’ll bet the 40,000 travelers who had their flights canceled so that he could land at Heathrow instead of a nearby military landing field would vote for banning him.
Wow. Decorators of mass destruction. Singers of terror (OMG! Run! It’s the Voice of Doom singing “karma karma karma …”!!!!). I am just so glad that our brave souls at the Ministry of Vaterland Security are protecting me from such miscreants!

Everyone needs a time-out because this is just Romper Room level tantrums.
British Airways is really raising hell over the use of Heathrow. They were already in hot water over the mess with Terminal 5, and now this.
