I pose to you a riddle:
In the year 2007, Doug "Ibrahim" Hooper, head of national Islamist lobbying organization CAIR, an unindicted co-conspirator in a Hamas funding case, somehow manages to flagrantly and falsely attribute some slightly extreme statements to Robert Spencer of JihadWatch. Incidentally, in an argument with Christopher Hitchens and Dennis Prager on Paula Zahn, which in its context was something of a non sequitur.
Robert Spencer maintains that these statements appeared in JihadWatch's comments, and JihadWatch has a distinctively long disclaimer that should make it clear even to the most daft of nincompoops that its comments sections are not endorsed by JihadWatch. If that is to be believed, then Hooper is clearly either:
1) An inexcusable moron who, in the year 2007, is somehow clinically incapable of understanding the basic concept of blog comments.
2) A poor liar. When Muhammad (police be upon him) told his followers "You may lie" in order to achieve the assassinations of prominent infidels, he probably would have said to Dougie, "I wasn't talking to you. You couldn't lie your way out of a wet paper bag. Go and wash the camels."

So *that's* who Doug is. Didn't recall that was his first name, as he'd been posting letters to the _Strib_ as Ibrahim for years. My preference is to call him "Hoppity" Hooper after the old (& perhaps forgotten) cartoon.
