From an old friend of NR:

“Comrade Derb—President Bush should ASAP and very publicly bestow on the excellent Wafa Sultan The Medal of Freedom. (Not only does she deserve it, but it would help make her Fatwa-proof). Please put this suggestion about on The Corner. See if anyone in the White House picks up on the idea.”

[Derb] Done. And my apologies for referring to her as a “brave Muslim lady.” Brave and a lady, she surely is, but she describes herself as a secular rationalist.
