It has been brought to our attention that Islamic terrorists, who hate us and want to kill us, are very upset about being called such names as "Towelheads" or "Ragheads", and we should be more sensitive.
The cloth they wear upon their head is niether a towel or a rag, but is in fact a small folded sheet.
For this reason, we ask that all refrain from such derogatory names and refer to them in the future as "Little Sheet Heads".
Your cooperation in this matter is appreciated.
"Why, it appears that we appointed all of our worst generals to command the armies and we appointed all of our best generals to edit the newspapers. I mean, I found by reading a newspaper that these editor generals saw all of the defects plainly from the start but didn't tell me until it was too late. I'm willing to yield my place to these best generals and I'll do my best for the cause by editing a newspaper." --Robert E. Lee
