My email exchange with a freeper friend
Edited on Wed Dec-01-04 11:06 AM by 4MoreYearsOfHell
I basically told him to put up or shut up...I really am tired of these pathetic people refusing to see the truth..

Him...

Soooo, Kofi Annan has presided over the largest fraud in history with the Oil-For-Food program. And now we learn his son is a key player and received millions of dollars. But Kofi "is shocked" and "didn't know anything about it". Yeah right, seems to make sense why he and folks like the French were as adamently against going into Iraq as they were now doesn't it?
Sure--they want to talk about an "illegal war".........all the while they are being bought off by illegal bribes and kickbacks.

Time for the Affirmative Action hire to go--bubeye Kofi.

Me...

Ranks right up there with Halliburton bribing Nigerian officials, doesn't it? (Name deleted), even you have to know how to spell R-E-D H-E-R-R-I-N-G.

So, what are you telling me? That we now went to an illegal war (based on OUR OWN LAWS) in order to uncover the corruption in the oil-for-food program? Whatever happened to the WMD's, or the ties to Al-Qaeda, or the reconstituted nuclear weapons programs, or the Iraqi drones ready to dump anthrax on us from within 45 minutes. Or for that matter, freeing the Iraqis from Saddam (already done that) and spreading democracy at gunpoint.

Send your cute little sound bite to the mothers/wifes/children of the 1254 dead American soldiers, and do not forget to copy the loved ones of the 17,000+ wounded. Then go to the nearest recruiting station and put your money where your mouth is. Until then, quit insulting my intelligence with the latest spin from the Hannity/Coulter assault on America's REAL values.

1. I didn't think Kofi Annan was involved, himself
This was some kind of deal with his son, and even his son's complicity has yet to be proved.

But, in true form, the right-wingers are calling for blood before there's an investigation. It's a mighty suspicious happening, if you ask me.

Of course, if K.A. is complicit, out he should go. But, being a Libbrul, I happen to believe that the trial should come before the lynching.

--p!

2. Yeah, they're pretty much ALL pathetic little turds, aren't they?
They postively wet themselves over the food-for-oil "scandal," but Evil Dick doing business with Saddam during the same time period (which was ILLEGAL) doesn't cause them to bat an eyelash.

If there is one thing that characterizes the freeper mindset (besides ignorance), it's hypocrisy.

4. Sometimes the ignorance will just make you want to explode
My neighbors daughter sent him an email saying how her "How safe she felt from the terrorists now that her wonderful strong president has been re-elected." It's sad.....he doesn't want to speak with her.

6. You know, along those lines
I am supposed to get together with a friend next week that I have not seen in a while - and I DO NOT want to see him...I know that he will smugly tell me how much better I have it with my extra $300 a year, and how much better off we all are...While blaming Clinton for everything under the sun...

Not looking forward to it at all...

7. Can't blame you. I don't like to speak with an X of mine because
he points the finger at Clinton, also. He is from Cleveland originally, but lives in Orlando now. I haven't even spoken to him since way before the election because of his ignorance. I sometimes feel I need to be more patient. It just disgusts me that when "push comes to shove" people's true ignorants comes out. It says something about the persons character and way of thinking.

Although it doesn't surprise me with him. He was an arrogant narcissistic with severe "mommy" issues. That's why I am not with him anymore.

8. Note how such types always manage to sneak some racism in, too?
"Time for the Affirmative Action hire to go--bubeye Kofi."

Racist. Racist. Racist.

9. I doubt Annan is out of the loop on this one
Sounds like a tactic of the ruling classes: give a family member the payoff/bribe as a way to maintain "plausible deniability".
