It's like a pack of dogs descending on a bone whenever a story comes up with the word burqua in it. I do especially like the single-issue 'feminists' that get attracted to those stories. Never hear them utter a word about feminism any other time, but if the woman's a Muslim, they're onto it every single time...

Thanks for seconding the nomination, big kahuna!
