WHY would 56% US think Iraq war made us SAFER????????!!! |
|
I mean HELLOOOOO STUPID MFers!!!!!
THINK about it! JUST FOR ONCE!
-Iraq DID NOT HAVE WMD.
-Iraq DID NOT HAVE TIES to al Qaeda.
-Iraq DID NOT HAVE TIES to ANY international terrorist organizations.
ADD to that bush's OWN GOVERNMENT REPORTS that say invading Iraq has made us LESS SAFE.
Not to even mention all the RIGHTWING PRO-WAR THINK TANK REPORTS that ALSO say the invasion of Iraq has made us LESS SAFE.
Not to even mention the UK GOVERNMENT'S OWN REPORTS that ALSO say the invasion of Iraq has made us LESS SAFE.
And don't even think about using COMMON BLOODY SENSE that says INCREASING WORLD HATRED towards us is probably going to make us LESS SAFE or that MASSACRING 100,000+ HUMAN BEINGS is probably going to make us LESS SAFE.
So WHY would ANYONE with any bit of brain whatsoever think invading and occupying and bombing the shit out of a SOVEREIGN NATION that had NEVER DONE ANYTHING to us would make us more safe?????????
19 guys, NONE of whom were Iraqi, with $1.99 boxcutters hijacked planes and killed 3000 people. And because we INVADED AND OCCUPIED AND KILLED 100,000 Iraqi civilians, we're now SAFER???????
Another 19 Saudis with $1.99 boxcutters can't AGAIN hijack planes and kill another 3000 people???????
How the HELL can SO MANY AMERICANS be SO DAMN DUMB???
I'd really love to know.

10. I would have said it's because they are fucking idiots, |
|
but that would have been inflammatory. So I won't call them fucking idiots.

6. It's called LOW I.Q. simmered in propaganda. |
|
A dirty mixture if there ever was one, easily paving the way for the theo-fascist corporocracy.

7. The liberal media is exaggerating problems |
|
and downplaying success.
Everything is actually going amazingly well in Iraq - freedom is breaking out everywhere, electricity is on, schools and roads are all re-built. We've captured hundreds of the top terrorists.
It's just this teeny weeny little area where a few "troublemakers" who hate freedom are holding out.
But you won't hear that in the liberal media! . . Or at least that's what the TV in my gym that's turned to Faux tells me....

8. Welcome to the People's Republic of Dumf*ckistan. |
|
It's where people watch Fox News and Fear Factor and Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire. It's where they drive huge SUVs decorated with "Support Our Toops" magnets and believe in creationism and think being gay is catching and that Jesus especially loves America and George Bush is a good Christian and a brilliant war strategist. Why are you surprised?

Bush said in his "press conference" yesterday that terror has been lessoned by invading Afghanistan AND IRAQ. People listen and a majority just line up behind the pretend Commander-in-Chief. remember the duct tape nonsense. who were these clowns buying out the duct tape stock at the hardware stores? I was laughing my head off.

14. But they ALSO feel the war made us SAFER |
|
Only the COST of that "SAFETY" wasn't worth it.
What I really do not get is how ANYONE could possibly be so stupid as to think INVADING and OCCUPYING a nation, in a WAR OF AGGRESSION, just like Hitler's invasion of Poland, would make us "SAFER"!

Because their pastors, media and trusted corporations tell them so. Then they believe everything they hear.

19. Reasons, aside from our chronic stupidity: |
|
1.Polls lie, can be rigged as needed etc.
2. MSM covers up the truth about BushCo and it's immoral foreign wars.
3. Many of us are brainwashed and/or don't know how/where to look for other news sources, or just can't find time to. I used to be one of those, and it's still not easy to keep up with everything, especially the real and important news.
