Just have to share something that will make you smile
I argue with this freeper at a pretty neutral site (for computer gamers but politics does come up). He brought up the 4 civilian deaths in Falujah the other day and asked when we are going to go in there and kick some "towel head" ass.

So I gave him the link to the US Army website and suggested that he find his local recruiter so that he can better support what his country is doing!

He didn't answer that. Not only that, but people came out of the WOODWORK to flame him for what he said. I had no idea there were so many liberals there. I mean seriously you could have roasted some marshmallows over his ASS by the time it was all said and done. I counted **174** seperate ass-whippings. It warmed my heart.

So he took off. Wimp.

6. Uh this guy doesn't really care how many Iraqis have died
heck he's advocating killing more. The one that really slayed me was a letter to the editor in my local paper from a woman who said she was a "non-violent Christian mother of four who wouldn't hurt a flea". She said she thought we should get every American out of Iraq and "bomb the whole frigging place".

Nice non-violent Christian attitude, no?

8. I didn't say it would change his mind.
However pointing out the civilian death, and that his attitude, in an Iraqi mind, is what caused the deaths of those 4 contractors. In a way, he indirectly caused those deaths.

4. whenever you speak up,
you will find an amazing number of people who do not support this war. I've been out on the streets about it for more than a year now and have always received more positive than negative feedback -- except for the first couple weeks after the war began. Last week, before our weekly street corner protest ("Honk for Peace"), we couldn't even get our signs up before people started honking.

And I'm in Laramie, Wyoming -- not exactly a liberal bastion.

5. I've noticed that too!
And I am in TEXAS!!!! We were in a checkout line and my daughter snarled and practically hissed at a picture of shrub on a magazine and the lady in line behind us laughed and said "you're bringing her up right! That guy's a JERK!"

So we started talking and the guy ahead of me says "I sure am glad to hear people talking like this....I remember just a year ago you didn't hear this."

Then the CHECKER gets in on the action and says "Ug I hate that guy, I want him out"

I thought I was going to break my face from grinning.

Oh today I was in Target and I moved around the Hannity books and covered them with Micheal Moore and Al Franken books. Someone had ripped Moore's face off the book jacket so I put that one behind a Franken one. Childish, yes, but satisfying.

11. children who snarl & hiss at *
are a great reflection on the integrity of their parents!

And, I must admit, I play the same game in bookstores....

10. you know...that's funny...
I go to a site that is neutral as well and if you say one thing about BushCo 3 or 4 different repugs will blast you to high heaven...but yet...when you apply some logic to their Kerry/Democrat bashing...they resort to name calling...

So you have it like this...when you call some on their bullshit...they run and hide or they resort to name calling...

good job though...it's nice to see some freeper repug asshole shot down in flames...I live to see that stuff...!
