On CNN's Crossire today Bob Novak remarked about Sean Connery's celebrating Tartan Day by remarking that one can easily find enough "Scotchs" at any bar during happy hour and then remarked about the horrible noise of bagpipes!

I have emailed CNN.com/crossfire about his bigotry and incorrect usage of "Scotch" v. "Scots".

I would encourage all to do the same. The implication that persons of Scottish heritage are found in bars is truely offensive. His use of "Scotch" v. "Scots" is proof of his ignorance and bigotry. As to the bagpipes, I think they are more melodious than his whiney voice:)
