This is a heartbreaking story of a young married Iraqi couple trying to see their relatives in Jordan for their anniversary. They weren't let into Jordan. The airport workers treated them inhumanely. Is Jordan a signatory to the Geneva Conventions?

Well my answer would be, I do! Not only do I care about what this hate monger says, I care about what the other hate mongers have been saying for a long time.

We seem to get all worked up, enraged and willing to take action when someone famous attacks people of color or disparages our candidate of choice (the Edwards fagot fiasco). Where is the rage and action when these hate mongers attack women?
