NY Times editorial on the Pope (the best kind of Times editorial, of course):
As the pope champions the rights of Christians in Turkey and other Muslim lands, he should bear in mind that his words will be most effective if he makes clear that the West still has a long way to go in defending the rights of minorities.

Yeah, I’m with you on this one. Everything being relative, I think the West has done a far better job of protecting religious and ethnic minorities than any East state I can think of… Maybe they are comparing the West to the NY Times? In that case, maybe the NY Times has done a better job… Dumb.
