"Heh! I'm So Daring!"

It's the Day's Day of Days!  Because happy mushroom!

Wow.  Not only does Muir give us both barrels of crazy shithead today, he manages to do it in a way that is not only offensive, but also continues his latest running streak of doing things half-assed, even by his low standards, in the form of a lousy single-paneled cartoon without anything even remotely resembling a punchline.  It's classic Muir, a man revealing his racism, idiocy, paranoia, and cowardice, while imagining that he is making himself look good. 

Of course, in light of recent events, Muir is doubtless telling himself that he is revealing his glorious dedication to free speech.  Indeed, he is almost certainly hoping that some Islamic extremist finds out about this horrible cartoon, and broadcasts it to the world.  This would of course cause more riots and deaths, but hey, its worth it because... well, because   Which, on the whole, is pretty contemptible.  But added to that--Muir is also probably patting himself on the back for his moral courage.  The Evull Muslims are doubtless going to want him dead for this, but he did it because--gosh, darn it, he's so brave.  And yet it's hard to believe that Muir actually think he's risking death here. Oh, he'll tell himself he is, but I think he knows that he isn't.  It's just Muir, being a racist, bigoted ass, and wanting to be praised for it.
