Kathleen Parker: "Good Golly Ms. Molly"

Columnist Kathleen Parker writes today about a new Islamic fatwa, this one issued against Molly Norris, a Seattle cartoonist.

The Islamic fundies have issued a fatwa against Morris for attempting to draw the prophet Muhammed. Islamists says that thou shalt not draw or even attempt to draw or talk about drawing the prophet Muhammed. I should add that not all Islamic scholars agree that such a prohibition exists.

...In support of Norris and others, 19 Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonists have signed a petition condemning threats and attacks against cartoonists. The petition is posted on the Cartoonists Rights Network International website (http://www.cartoonistrights.com/). It hasn't enough signatures.

So what are you waiting for? Go sign. I did.
