So we bagged a bad guy and hung his antlers on the wall of the world... |
|
a trophy of a tinhorn dictator. Well, folks, there are more bad guys in the world to bag. Let's get the hunting pack together and start trackin'. Let's not stop till the hills, valleys, and rivers run with blood. That'll show the world who we are. We're the US of A and we don't kiss noone's tush. We know a bad guy dictator when we see one and we reserve the right to take 'em out when we see the whites of their eyes. Never saw one in our neck of the woods, but we'll sure be happy to hunt 'em down in any other field or forest we think they live in.
Let's get it on!

Saddam was a brutal dictator but....
We went after him based on a pack of lies. We broke International laws. Tried, convicted, and executed him from a kangaroo court. Burned part of our Constitution. Lost respect in many parts of the world. Osama Bin Who?
Somehow, I don't feel like we won anything.
Edit: Last but not least,..we are on the path to bankruptcy with all the billions wasted.

6. My sentiments exactly. |
|
The more I think about this, the more disgusted I get. Especially when you consider that if the lies used a criteria for starting the war become the standard, we'd better get started on the next bad guy. There are so many bad guys and so little time.

kick our asses by now. It would only take a couple of Asian countries pull out on financing our debt to destroy us. We've built their industries for them. What the hell do they need us for?
Republicans have made us weak and irrelevant. One of these days all of our shiny killing toys will get rusty and break. Try talkin' tough then.
