Ahhh yes premptive punishment. Maybe we should make a modified Brady bill for bush. Require say a 15 day waiting (cooling off) period before he can perform illegal wiretaps, or invade a country.

‘South Park’ loses Chef in spat about religion

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Former Atlantan Isaac Hayes has quit “South Park,†where he voices Chef,
saying he no longer can stomach its take on religion.
Hayes, who has played the ladies’ man/school cook in the animated Comedy
Central satire since 1997, said in a statement Monday that he feels a line
has been crossed.
“There is a place in this world for satire, but there is a time when satire
ends and intolerance and bigotry towards religious beliefs of others begins,â€
the 63-year-old soul singer and outspoken Scientologist said.
“Religious beliefs are sacred to people, and at all times should be respected
and honored,†he continued. “As a civil rights activist of the past 40 years,
I cannot support a show that disrespects those beliefs and practices.â€
“South Park†co-creator Matt Stone responded sharply in an interview with The
Associated Press Monday, saying, “This is 100 percent having to do with his
faith of Scientology…. He has no problem — and he’s cashed plenty of checks —
with our show making fun of Christians.â€
Last November, “South Park†targeted the Church of Scientology and its
celebrity followers, including actors Tom Cruise and John Travolta, in a
top-rated episode called “Trapped in the Closet.†In the episode, Stan, one
of the show’s four mischievous fourth-graders, is hailed as a reluctant
savior by Scientology leaders, while a cartoon Cruise locks himself in a
closet and won’t come out.
Stone told the AP he and co-creator Trey Parker “never heard a peep out of
Isaac in any way until we did Scientology. He wants a different standard for
religions other than his own, and to me, that is where intolerance and
bigotry begin.â€

No silly, not a simulation of a computer, a computer simulation of a virus.
Interesting article.
I’m trying to remember a story a year or two ago talking about a strangely worded German unemployment rule, that could prevent compensation if the person in question did not accept work (including work in the “entertainment” industry).
Now I guess they have to many “entertainers” so they are converting them to elder care workers.
