Long e-mail exchange, worth a laugh. (My best work, i think)

[burythehatchet]

Got an e-mail from a long time buddy with I re-connected after 10 years. He live in TX now and is a Freeptard. He's alright though.

He forwards me this e-mail. I bolded the part you need to read.....


(Please forward this invitation to friends, family members, and
fellow American Patriots.)

It's official. John F. Kerry is the Democrat Party nominee for
President. But is he fit for office?

Kerry has a long and well-documented history of providing "aid and
comfort" to the enemy in time of war -- particularly in the case of
North Vietnam, Nicaragua and Cuba. Kerry, by his own account of his
actions and protests, violated the UCMJ, the Geneva Conventions and
the U.S. Code while serving as a Navy officer. Kerry met, on two
occasions, with North Vietnamese negotiators in 1970 and 1971,
willingly placing himself in violation of Article three, Section
three of the U.S. Constitution, which defines treason as "giving aid
and comfort" to the enemy in time of warfare.

Kerry was recognized for such "aid and comfort" in 1983, when he
received an award for special contributions to the Communist victory
from the incoming general secretary of the Communist Party of
Vietnam, Comrade Do Moi. (See photos at

First I laughed out loud and then I wrote him back. We've been trading a few heated e-mails back and forth. It's OK though because he knows he needs to know.

OK Peter, let's get it on.
I'll accept the premise of this argument. John Kerry is unfit for office because he gave aid and comfort to the enemy. I will agree with you.
A new candidate has to be chosen, and the Democrats are panicking.
A new candidate emerges. His name is Turdon Uhstick. His name is foreign sounding but he was born in the U.S. He comes forward and siezes the candidacy.
Through the course of the campaign, we learn that Candidate Uhstick has very close relationships with Yemen. The royal family of Yemen has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in Uhstick family business. They consider the King of Yemen to be close as a brother.
Of course, just a few years ago we remember that 15 Yemeni's perpetrated the worst terrorist act on U.S. soil in history.
We're in the midst of a terrible war against most of the world, in one form or another, but Candidate Uhstick is a proven draft dodger.
The economy is in a mess.
But you've run several companies into the ground ... but interestingly, always come out ahead. (thanks to the Yemeni royal family)
The intelligence agencies are all broken.
But its just a coincidence that your father was head of intelligence, and vice president for 8 years and president for 4 years. (we'll just blame it on Clinton's cock...you know it's got a crick to the right...Paula Jones told me)
There might be a little problem with your vice-presidential pick, his company has made billions on the aftermath of the wars that we've started. Aw hell, we'll control congress! And we'll conduct lots and lots of investigations that all say he's innocent of ANY wrongdoing.


Hey peter.... I gotta take care of a few things...I'll finish this later.

1. lol keep at him and good luck! n/t

[right is wrong]

2. isn't dodging the draft aiding the enemy???

Eh George, Whaddya think! Flying planes on the weekend and negotiating with ambitious secretaries in the pool. How can Right wingers be such retards. Useless

[WoodrowFan]

3. isn't that bogus

Isn't the story about his getting a medla in 1983 totally bogus? I can't find it on Snopes.

[calimary]

4. You did the correct thing, and THEN you did the correct thing, AGAIN.

First: You did precisely the best thing of all. You RESPONDED(although I would like to know how meeting with a couple of Vietnamese negotiators constitutes giving aid and comfort to the enemy). You did not let it hang in the air, unchallenged.

Second: You then produced a response that was clever, engaging, and thought-provoking. Perhaps that's why some people are saying "The Manchurian Candidate" may pack even more of a punch than "Fahrenheit 9/11." It's because of the scenario you've constructed.

APPLAUSE!!!!

Oh, uh - there were TWO points here so

APPLAUSE AGAIN!!!!

No, seriously, this is excellent work. I humbly submit that so many horrors have come to pass in this country, and so many horrible people are in power, because the limbaughs and limbaugh-wannabes have had an absolute monopoly for so long - unchallenged, unrefuted, unrebutted, and when somebody DOES try to speak up, they're interrupted, shouted down, scolded, disparaged, mocked, and insulted. Sometimes even threatened. Everybody on our side, I guess, was perhaps stunned that people would say this stuff to begin with, because it's NOT NICE, or perhaps it's because they felt it was too important to take the high road, or that they had misplaced confidence in the masses to be able to see through or doubt the lies or know enough, already, to recognize lies. There's also the "we don't want to lower ourselves to fighting on their level. That makes us become like them" argument. Perhaps the "we'll wait it out and they'll come to their senses, or people will get bored with it, or it's just a passing fad" theory was it. And then, of course, after 9/11, we were told that if we didn't support "Our President" blindly and mutely, or asked ANY questions, we were "unamerican," "unpatriotic," "appeasers," "Saddam-lovers," "terrorist sympathizers," "Neville Chamberlains," and worse. Result: there's only one "party line" being spoken of, quoted, written about, exhorted, or spun. If you never hear anything different, how could you possibly imagine that anything MIGHT be different? If you couldn't see outside, and only heard people talking about a yellow sky, and you NEVER heard anything other than this, what would you conclude about the color of the sky?

So this shit has been allowed to perpetuate, unchecked. And it's a shame. No. It's a SIN. That's why so many Americans still believe Saddam had something to do with 9/11. That's why a recent study showed that people who watched the Pox "news" network actually thought not only this, but that WMDs HAD in fact been found in Iraq. It's only since Howard Dean, and then Howard Stern, and then Michael Moore, with Dennis Kucinich in there for good measure, that people have had the courage to start speaking out and saying "Hey, WAIT JUST A MINUTE!" when some of this crap gets spewed. Was DU always more than 40-thousand members strong? No. It started WAY small. And it grew. It grew because more people got more uneasy and upset about it, and realized, miraculously, that they were not alone.

Come to think of it, they've basically kept us in a hostage hold for all this time. Silencing us. Demonizing and marginalizing us. Isolating us in conditions where all we hear is their non-stop propaganda, as though they were giving us the "smoke-out-Manuel-Noriega" treatment. It's only recently that we've found the strength and courage and American-ness in us to stand up, rip off the gags and blindfolds, and start fighting back.

YOU have done this. Sorry, Peter, but you're gonna have your eyes OPENED. Forcefully, if need be. But you're GONNA FACE THE TRUTH. It reminds me of Jeff Goldblum's great line in the first "Jurassic Park" movie - marveling at how "life finds a way." Well, so does the truth.

This was GREAT! Congratulations on a Job Well Done!
