This is an attempt to create a space where issues can be discussed free of hate, fear mongering, labeling, and empty rhetoric. The idea is a shocking one ... that political issues can be discussed logically and respectfully by people who don't agree. It isn't easy, but it is worth a try.

Step aside Mubarak, Kenneth Cole is to blame!
Kenneth Cole tweeted a joke. It wasn’t that funny. That’s pretty much the whole story, or at least it should be. He, or someone signing off as K.C., said "Millions are in uproar in #Cairo. Rumor is they heard our new spring collection is now available online.” It was a joke. Perhaps insensitive, but not repulsive. Surely not contributing to the “uproar.” For me, anyway, not something that changes my opinion of Kenneth Cole. It isn’t even necessary to mention the good things that the company does. It was a joke. Sometimes, a joke is just a joke, or at least it should be.
