What Some People Hear When They Hear "Stay The Course"
I just deleted a comment posted by an anonymous troll in my livejournal. Had I considered it a moment longer I would have preserved it as evidence of what kind of insanity Bush's 'leadership' has plunged this country into.

Basically, the troll's main point was that if we have to kill *everyone* in Iraq in order to "protect our way of life," then we should "stay the course" and do just that. And feel good about it.

So, in this troll's mind, "stay the course"="final solution."

Wonder how many other people out there are making that equation. Hope most of them don't vote.

:scared:

2. how did the beacon of democracy, tolerance and opportunity
for the entire world morph so quickly and so thoroughly into a nation dominated by fascists and bent on destroying everything that gets in their way and everyone who disagrees with them?

:shrug:

3. Argh!
How have the Iraqi people threatened our way of life? When did the Iraqi people threaten our way of life? It seems to me that the only lives threatened are theirs! :mad:

6. Mr. Troll was a little vague about exactly who he wanted us to liquidate.
I believe the term "those people" was as specific as he got. I assume he meant to include the Iraqis, since he was talking about the Iraq war, probably because they are Muslims, or perhaps because they are "brown skinned," as Dubya put it. You know, when you're in a genocidal mood, you figure, why take chances? Kill them all, let God sort 'em out.

Digusted,

5. Classic Chickenhawkitus.....

Funny that the chest beaters for war are the first ones to run when it comes time to serve.

Abbreviated Chickenhawk List:
Paul Wolfowitz
Donald Rumsfeld
Richard Perle
Karl Rove
Rush Limbaugh
Sean Hannity

I don't go for the nonsense. Couple of Repugs did serve Powell and McCain but I lost respect for them long time ago. Don't be scared of them, they are just repulsive idiots. :puke:

7. Liebensraum.
There was never a prayer of making this oil grab stick without murdering millions.

I honestly believe BushCo didn't want to face that reality. It's not that they wouldn't do it, but they prefer the "brown-skinned" ones just throw flowers and money.

However, even as they wouldn't face that reality, their rhetoric was preparing us to kill them to save them....can anyone say Coulter wouldn't prefer a holy war on Muslims? Or George? (His father sucks so he's going for God's approval? Or his ancestor Edward I's approval--I know this is the ancestor Bush shares with Kerry, but somehow Bush seems to have taken the anti-semitic failed Crusader to heart.)

If we stay, we kill. Or they will put our heads on poles with our privates in our mouths. So, humiliation or mass murder?

But if we go.....they'll kill each other.

Honest? It sucks but they were always going to do it anyway.
