The Florida preacher burned the Koran with out burning the Koran. He had threatened to burn a bunch of Korans which looks looks like a coarse stunt. Naturally the national media took the bait and ran with it thinking it had a vehicle to prove their preconceit that christians and conservatives by proxy are a bunch of bigots. It is extremely delicious because even our illustrious community organizer in chief bit on the practical joke ! At the last moment the rube preacher has come out claiming that he has made a deal with the mosque developer to move the mosque away from the 9-11 location. With a stroke of genius he has inextricably linked the freedom of expression to build a mosque with the equally important freedom of expression to burn a Koran.
Please note: It is a classic grifter technique to pretend to be less sophisticated than your mark.
