What the Hell does THAT mean?



Blitzer just quoted a General as saying the troops that are on the scene are highly proficient in armed combat.

1. That means they are going to kill a bunch of Americans
But they're mostly black, so Blitzer is thrilled.

10. I trust the men and women of the Armed Forces above our elected officials.
I agree with you, Sir, that no one will be shot.

8. And when Wolf really wants you to understand he's saying...
something really, really important...

his little Secret Squirrel vocal pitch rises faster than a helium balloon.

He screeches.

7. it means they just got back from a war zone
in the Tigris River Valley.

There is a huge difference between shooting enemy soldiers and shooting your own civilians. I like the fact these are battle tested soldiers, they are probably more likely to keep their heads in tough situations and not go off loose cannon style.

they'll also be more likely to resist orders to shoot civilians.

11. Yeah, just like they never lost their heads
in Baghdad and never-EVER shot a civilian. That would be WRONG.

Sorry, I guess I'm flaming. It's just that they've done quite a lot of killing of unarmed civilians, including journalists.

9. *Wolf*. **BLITZER**
I mean, this can't be his real name, can it? His father's name was Blitzer and Wolf is the name his folks gave him? This is one coincidence theory I'm not buying...
