Let's Play- Outrage Roulette! Round 2

Last week's winner was DCBob, but he forgot to place a bet. (Gas Prices)

So, the betting board is clean. Place your bets!
What do you think the Right Wing machine will be mad about this week? TO be fair, they were mad about a lot. last week.

Once again, write down the topic and the number of Crazy Credits or CC for short you want to assign as a bet.

For example: I bet on Bin Laden's Porn Stash for 30CC.

Place your bets!

It's a good topic for them - it involves pissing off some Muslims, while being able to claim they want to protect other Muslims. They can ignore global realities and diplomacy, while shouting "America SMASH puny foreigners!"; and they can call Obama 'weak', and say he's both apologising for the existence of the USA, and in secret collusion with some Muslims. And the Russians - who they think are still the Soviet Union, and thus Godless Commie Bastards. And they can slag off the UN.

They were also upset about Libya and wanted Obama to do something about that too- until he actually did and they had a huge tantrum over it, stopping short of trying to pull funds for it. If Obama were to do something about Syria, they'd probably have fits about that as well.

So, since he hasn't invaded Syria or backed the rebels, they'll support that. However, if he were to send troops or air support, they would instantly come out against it. They're pathetic.

I didn't think that Rush Limbaugh himself would become a target of cross-platform outrage.

Ah well... that's the breaks in Outrage Roulette.

Bets reset Monday.
