David Long,

A baaaad start, for your penance go and wash your mouth out and then read Edward Said's "Orientalism" from cover to cover 10 times. Progressives never ever ask that question --it's just not on!

Being known by a number is dehumanizing and only last Friday, in the supermarket, I had to assume the identity of a number at the Deli counter.
