The Brawler is referring, of course, to the Texas Hold Em Blogger -- he who called Mexicans (or people he thought were Mexicans) "chihuahuas."
In a post titled "Wonder what their reaction would be," Tex says if the Interfaith Council of Greater Milwaukee didn't like a bumpersticker that equated Islam with Naziism, "I wonder what they would think of this":
Hey Paddy, here's what you wrote after you let Tex skate for his chihuahua comment:
Contrary to the gist of his opponents' claim -- that if I keep DiGaudio on my blog roll, I'm agreeing to an ethnic insult -- I hereby declare this to be my criteria for putting blogs on my Wisconsin blog roll: You're an interesting Wisconsin blogger whom I know about and read with some regularity and whom I think my readers might find interesting. It doesn't imply that I agree in whole or in part with anything particular thing you've written -- how could it, unless I diligently scanned each blog on the roll daily, including comments? I don't: I'm not their editor. However, this does include the proviso that I might yank someone off the roll if they insult other people in a way and to a degree I just can't stomach.
Does this rather explicit declaration that Islam=Nazism (an interpretation supported by reading Tex's blog, which charmingly describes Islam as the Religion of Piece (of arm, of leg, of torso)) constitute something that "insult(s) other people in a way and to a degree I just can't stomach."
If this doesn't, Paddy what does? Or is this just "stimulating discussion."
