You are really stupid, really. I never called anyone who liked this horse(I happen to love Henny Hughes as much as you guys love Bernadin) a terrorist sympathizer.

To thee best of my knowledge Sheikh Mo is nothing but an honorable sportsman with a sense of decency.

A particular poster here used to post on ESPN and was outspoken in his defense of those who acted against the US. Scuds spotted him before I did. Note his lack of denial.

We are at war, and before I am a horse racing fan or anything else I am a proud American. The presence of such a person is sickening.

Then I categorically apologize, Oracle. I'd like to remove my post, but at this point, it's too late. Nuff said on the subject, I agree with you.

And yes, I am stupid because I should have read more closely all the posts on the subject before making a dumb comment. It's an unfortunate habit of mine.

The Makhtoums are nowhere near being terrorists ...

... they're just kleptocrats ... who rule their little sheikdom with an iron fist under a velvet glove ...

... and keep whatever they want for themselves.

Nice work if you can get it.
