Don't believe that I said you were against the troops and that you should arm yourself and fight them. More like a political attack on those you think are enforcing the wrong policy. Think you're reading a different meaning than the one I wrote. Maybe it was too subtle for you.


Gee I don't know Skid, did I ? Here's what you said

If you are that opposed to what our soldiers are doing then why don't you go over there and attack them yourself?


To continue to try to have a dialog with someone in such an emotional state as that they can not recall what they said would be futile. Also, for me to continue to allow a person in such a state to vent their hostilities upon me would be ridiculas.

Therefore, on one thing I guess we can agree. To end this dialog.

Even though apparently the grenade thing is no big deal to you anymore(?)

America is (supposed to be) a Republic, NOT a democracy. Learn the difference, help end the lie. Fear a government that fears your guns.

Show me any reference to arming yourself and/or bearing arms against our soldiers in the original post or anything I have written since then. While I could have worded it better so as to spell out to you that what I was discussing was a symbolic attack I gave you credit for being intelligent enough to figure out something I think you are deliberately misunderstanding.

I didn't say that it wasn't a big deal to ME. I told YOU to forget about it. Again a deliberate misunderstanding on your part.

Apparently not. You had to make another post. Lose the spin and the agenda RAM. If your argument has merit use it. If not cut your losses and move on.

I like the fact that our troops killed them, I hope they are able to kill the whole Hussein family, I think the whole damn deck of cards should be killed.

Newspapers here and abroad print the news with headlines like BARBARIC! and columns denouncing the release of the corpse photos -- then publish the photos themselves. Has hypocrisy plunged to new depths, or what? Don't stop with just releasing corpse photos. Take 'em all to the taxidermist, then put 'em on tour -- especially So Damn Insane when we get 'im.

We're also taking flak for not burying the sons' corpses according to Arab or Muslim custom (before sundown the day of death). So let this be a sign unto them that such animals neither deserve nor will receive such honor but have forfeited it by their savage depravities.

(No, I'm not interested in debating the matter with any of these animals' contentious sympathizers.)


"Good enough" isn't.

Always take your responsibilities seriously but never yourself.

Geez, what a match of wits.
I think it stinks that our troops are in a war of attrition against holdout Saddamites, never mind the Shiitehead mullahs ranting and raving. Like most theocrats, their mind is made up.
Departing Iraq now simply betrays those who laid it down, making all those deaths utterly pointless with no redeeming end result for the living. I don't think so.
I just heard through the back door about a Pew Trust poll of other nationalities and the striking number was that comparatively few believe that an individual can control his or her own destiny, while in American and Canada, 65 and 63 percent believe otherwise.
The difference? The US is a republic that believes in individual rights, and the Canadians hear about that all the time because American media is relatively dominant. In the socialistic and worse states of the rest of the world, unless you have the right connections to get the government to pick a good niche for you, you're stuck in your rut, left to fate.
It's scary that we are trying to change such a pervasive mindset for the Iraquis and say, Hey, you CAN choose a better country! That's why we're here, you MORONS!
