Does that make all the rest of the professors at that university suspects? 11 years ago I was working for an NGO who had hired a rather unpleasant guy as a teacher. In 2001 I recognised him as one of the 9/11 pilots. Does that make me someone who's "palling around with terrorists"?


To the supporters of George W. Bush (possibly the worst president this country has ever seen) like Apple and Don Cardi, yes. It just naturally follows that McCain supporters would feel the same way.

It's guilt by association, albeit quite distant.




I thought guilt by association went out with McCarthyism.
