   I saw this story at yahoo and when asked to comment the company said there is nothing to comment on.

   This is obviously in poor taste but I am probably the only regular contributor to this blog(along with Paul) who is on hiatus who thinks so.

   Ed, were you born with that hatefulness of others? Or have you just been taught it by your masters of "uniting not dividing" over the last few years?

   I’m sad to report that you and Paul have become indistinguishable in your comments, your "good taste" and your sense of decorum – or lack thereof. Congratulations.

   Brad,

   Where did that come from?? Is my previous comment wrong?? I sincerely hope it is. I will find the story and put the link on here so you can read it for yourselves.

   I found CNN’s version but it did not have the same quote by the company that I saw on Yahoo.

   You can click on the photo, Ed. The stories already there. The quotes I’m guess you are speaking about are from the L&M Company at the end of the linked article.

   Your hatred for your fellow human beings is appalling.

   You still haven’t commented on the offensive nature of the toy. Not going to give me the satisfaction are you?? What is appalling is your abuse of the "H" word.

   The offensive nature of the toy goes without saying, ed. You’re such an ass. There’s a backwoods militia somewhere in Michigan with your name on it.

   jaime,

   i agree the offensive nature of the toy goes without saying. The events were not something to toy around with. So, i think ed needs to be reminded that the events of 911 have been a regular part ofthe jokes in Mr. Bush’s speeches. Neither are the deaths of innocent people (American and Iraqi sodliers and Iraqi civilians) something to be made light of. i would remind ed of the disgusting pictures of Mr. Bush jokingly looking for the WMD as if thousands of people havent died due to that issue. Where’s your sense of decorum there ed?
