6. YOu should never argue with a Freeper in private
It's meant to be a public act, so others can watch and see how stupid they are.

10. Here it is so far...
in all it's scary scary glory:
Enjoy:
(names have been changed to protect the weaker minded)

Him: so what the hell is going on in colo

Psstimnothere: Well, not much really. Had the Blue Angels flyng around for the Air Academy Graduation. Thought we were under attack

Him: thats a democrat

Psstimnothere: It was
loud

Psstimnothere: Most thunder I've heard since we've been here

Him: all good things are

Psstimnothere: Well we would be a prime target here ya know

Him: me and my surviorist friends will come and help you all

Psstimnothere: I think the 4 military bases and NORAD would have it under control

Him: all that money well spent

Psstimnothere: I suppose as long as you keep the Fundie Christian Nut Jobs outta it

Him: hell honey you dont know what my friends have in their basements

Psstimnothere: ya might not want to tell me, Herr Ashcroft might belistening LOL

Him: ashcroft is my buddy sick em sam

Psstimnothere: He may think you're a terrorist LOL

Him: i am to the towlheads

Psstimnothere: He's Big Brother, besides you have way too many skeletons in your closet, he wouldn't approve

Psstimnothere: He's watcing me I'm sure of it LOL

Him: thats the kind of men they want

Psstimnothere: Don't think so, Your sexual views a lone would make you a sicko in their eyes

Psstimnothere: you DEVIANT

Him: id love to shove a piece of the towers up some terrorst ass then shoot the shit in the head

Him: then have the best sex in my life

Psstimnothere: Now now, you don't want to go into politics with me. terrorists yes, all arabs, no

Him: hard to pick them out we csant trust any of them

Psstimnothere: Doesn't justify it

Psstimnothere: Politics and religion, 2 things that are very tough topics but, I'm fully armed in either one

Him: well when what happened to us on 9/11 as far as i see no justice to those who wait

Psstimnothere: However, Iraq had nothing to do with 9-11 and we've just managed to recruit more to the Al Qaeda machine

Him: now now lets not go their clinton signed the resalution an irak for the same reason we are their today

Psstimnothere: And it worked didn't it? there were no WMDs there

Psstimnothere: Not to mention Northern Ireland is peaceful these days thanks to him

Psstimnothere: You want to go there? LOL

Him: to stop terrorisum we must hunt all intrest down and cut the heads off or our sons will be living in a terrable place

Him: yes there were wmd found last week in missles

Him: serin gas

Psstimnothere: Are you ready for the draft then? the terrorists aren't a country, they are an organization not based out of one place. You can't honestly say that we can successfully invade all the countries that have terrorists. We'd have to start with our own homegrown terrorists first wouldn't you say?

Him: yes your right thats why we are going where ever they are look at what they have done this last 2 weeks

Psstimnothere: The Sarin gas was brought in by Al Qaeda AFTER we invaded. It wasn't even the same strain that Bush Sr. SOLD to Saddam back in the 80's

Him: draft yes ,,, all high school grads or drop uots should be in service 2 or 4 years

Psstimnothere: If it truly WAS the WMD's that Bush claimed was there don't you think he would have been screaming about it? Don't you think he would have been presenting it to the people ?

Him: same strain who cares they found them and more to come

Psstimnothere: Who cares? I do, he lied. Outright bald faced LIED. It wasn't there until we lost ocontrol of the country.

Him: we have never lost controll of the countey

Psstimnothere: And as far as the draft, don't be niave, it will be the poor and midle class, our kids doing the dying, not just the drop outs

Psstimnothere: Not my kids

Him: well like i said all highschool grads or drop outs 2 to 4 years

Psstimnothere: That was truly an elitist thing to say

Him: i served my father served his father served we live in a country like this because of people like me and the sons and daughters

Psstimnothere: O, don't start with that crap. My father served and my grandfather served too BUT, we weren't the invaders then

Him: they killed more people in the towers then we have lost in the war to date

Psstimnothere: They were JUST causes of which Iraq isn't in my mind. My boys will be raised as conscientious objectors. They will not fight a war for oil. And believe it or not,in my view that's what this family feud is about, nothing more. Bush can spin it anyway he wants, but, Iraq is not about terrorists, it's about "He tried to kill my daddy."

Psstimnothere: That's bullshit too. There have been 13,00 killed in Iraq and Afgahnistan, and those aren't the military and fighter deaths either. That count is civilian deaths, women and children

Him: oil thats not the reasons we are their you need to stop being so demo and open your eyes oil thats great

Psstimnothere: 13,000 by my calcualtions that's at least 4 times the people killed
P
sstimnothere: First it was WMD....BINK 0

Him: war is hell we should have just let them go and run crezy

Psstimnothere: Then it was liberation...BINK try again

Psstimnothere: "The days of Saddam Rape and Torture rooms are over!" Yeah so we can install our new and imporved version of the same

Him: we have that country running better then before the war power plants water treatment plants watch the new goverment in place now things will change for the better and we didnt take a drop of oil like the food for oil scam

Psstimnothere: Wow, you truly like to live in La La Land don't you?

Psstimnothere: I'm certain they would argue that point

Him: no i live in the usa we kicked the shit out of germany, japan , middle east, and its because we are free to live as we want and if we stick our necks out fot that freedom then watch out i love totting my gun listning to anything i want and sharing beliefs with outers i am proud of what we do france and germany kan kiss my suv corvette gas guzzling ass

Psstimnothere: That fits

Psstimnothere: I'm sure we can agree to disagree, which we obviously do. I do think that being a patriotic American means that you can question the direction your country is taking you in your name. Not only is it OK, it's not only a right, it's an obligation

* note: I was really trying to get away from him, it's a no win cause, but, I just got sucked back in!

Him: and its freedom loving people like me that will do what is nessary for my son to have the freedoms this country is founded on

Psstimnothere: Like it or not we do SHARE the world with other countries, and we don't always do the right thing, and we don't always have the best way

Psstimnothere: I'm also a freedom loving American

Him: then stop believing this war was for oil freedoms from a tyrent that the world had put on notice he was given so much time to move thinge hide things and now they are slowly comming to the top we are their for a reason

Him: and its not oil

Scary isn't it? There's more, too.

12. Funny how all that righteous indignation would change in a heartbeat
if his country wasn't the most powerful in the world.

That just about says it all.

13. It continues....
Psstimnothere: O Ok, to be a "Freedom Loving" Amercian you have to give up your own thoughts and ideas and blindly follow the leader? What a bucnh of crap that is.

Psstimnothere: My suggestion is educate yourself, read everyithing there is out there and being online should open YOUR eyes to the reality of it all

Him: all i am saying is there are things we must do to preserve are freedoms i would hate to live like middleeast walls, car bommings and for what ill tell you they want land , freedom to serve there god ,to raise a family , as do we all but they had to come here kill people going to work going on vacation, crashing planes into buildings we must put and end to this to stop it whereever they are, OIL BAAAA. we must not let them on our soil so we go to them hard.. so conscientious objectors can have the freedom

Psstimnothere: By "they" I'm sure that you are referring to Osama, not the Iraqi's, right?

*Note: Dangerous assumption I know

Him: every thing on the internet what a joke anybody whit an idea or brain fart is on the internet and yes osoama not the people of iraqi they are glad we are there as am i i have friends rotatring from iraqi and the reports from them are the people are glad we are there

Psstimnothere: No I'm talking about legitimate people on the internet. Yes you have to be careful, but, please read more than Fox et al

Psstimnothere: We have tons of Gi's coming home from Iraq here, they don't share your friends views let me tell you
