1. It's silly that anybody who voted for this war and wants to bomb Iran off the map
would even be referred to as 'The Goddess of Peace.'

5. You're obviously new here ...
The REC THIS THREAD IF thingy has gone the way of hoola-hoops, Chia-pets, and Ron Popeil's set-it-and-forget-it rotisserie.

7. I don't think Goddess is a good name for anyone -- on the radio or in politics.
Edited on Sun Apr-27-08 09:57 PM by Radio_Lady
(My apologies to the Goddess of Guinness and other wonderous women on the DU.)

8. That's sort of like Healthy Forest Initiative things where the name says healthy forest
but the act enables clearcutting.

Or the Defense Of Marriage Act, which prevents people who want to be married from getting married.

What you call 'em - there's a fancy Greek term for it in classical rhetoric. Now I remember it's called bull-shit.

9. Not just lame, it's downright deceptive.
The only politician that I know who's name should have the word "peace" attached is Kucinich. Certainly not Hillary "we'll obliterate them" Clinton.

They call her that with utter seriousness. Sad, really.

34. 38 recs by now. That means there are another 38 potential tombstones hitting the "rec" button.
Edited on Mon Apr-28-08 01:33 PM by Seabiscuit
I think this marks the first time the mods tombstoned some guy I didn't already have on "ignore".

27. I'm with Hillary all the way...
And I think that the moniker is not only lame, but borders on disgustingly cult-like. I seriously doubt Senator Clinton would even like being called that. Yuck!

32. It might be the most arrogant of all nicknames-given that would make her the mother of Jesus.
Edited on Mon Apr-28-08 01:29 PM by izzybeans
That it is if you are a progressive Christian.

The people I see using it are the same people that claim that Obama supporters are cultists and denigrate him buy calling him St. Obama.

The tragic irony in their posts make me sad.

35. The only way I use that term is sarcastically.
Goddess, she ain't, and peaceful, she ain't.
