Tim – I agree with everything you — and Ramesh — have to say about Noah’s latest non-whopper. However I think one thing needs clarification. You write, “Minutes earlier, reporters were pressing Ari (and Bush) to condemn the speech of Rep. John Cooksey, who had said airport screeners ought to search anyone “with a diaper on their head,” which upset many American Sikhs.”

That’s true, and Sikhs had every right to take offense. However, they were not the only group. Some Arabs who wear turbans were rightly upset. And, the unsung minority of folks — like me — who actually wear diapers on our heads took offense as well. Some of use feel we shouldn’t be discriminated against simply because we enjoy that crinkly-swooshing sound — and total hair protection — that comes with wearing a Pampers Chapeau.

I just wanted to get that off my chest.
