Am I on Crazy Pills or is the Entire Terry Jones/Koran Burning Episode Completely Insane?

The entire Terry Jones Koran burning episode is breathtaking in its idiocy.  How is it that a kook pastor with a 50 member church in Gainesville, Florida, has the President of the United States begging him not to burn Korans to avoid an international incident?  Really?  Has the entire world gone insane?   Terry Jones needs to be ignored as a hateful crank and fool but instead he is being given the biggest media platforms in the world.  Quite frankly, I blame the media first and then our leaders for giving this lunatic the time of day.  The media's behavior in the whole thing has been disgraceful as it has essentially given a megaphone to the lunatic in the crowded theater that is yelling "Fire!"  The only thing that our leaders and people in "authority" need to say at this point is that Terry Jones is an irrelevant fool acting like a hateful idiot who is so spiritually blind that he cannot even follow the "golden rule" and that any IslamoFascist that uses this as a pretext to kill is a moral reprobate.
