[Marxism] On the Sunni side of the street




Ohmigod. So they've brought back Bob and Ray.
Actually Garrison Keillor ALMOST topped this last week. A right-wing
character talked about going after "Shites" (pronouncing it with a long "i").
Keillor corrects him, saying it's "Shee-ite," and the character
responds, "whatever, she-ite, he-ite, we're gonna get 'em all."

But the CNN dialogue is way more over the top. Truth is
STILL stranger than fiction.

Blitzer: Did you ever hear your brother being called "Sunni"?
Ms. Phanor: Yeah. That's his nickname. It's not "Sunni". It's
"Sunny"...
like it's a sunny day. Yeah, that's his name.
Blitzer: So the confusion is he was called Sunny and not Sunni... because
as you know Sunni is one of the religious groups in Islam.
Ms. Phanor: No, I didn't know that but now that I know... no it's not for
that. That's his nickname and it's spelled S-u-n-n-y... as in sunny day.
That's his nickname ever since birth....
