the fucking Bushista morons are setting that up, selling our ports to the U.A.E. Pave the way for a "terrorist attack" on a port city, place the blame on Iran, and presto bango, the dumb fuck American sheeple will be all fired up "to go kill some more o' them thar A-rabs what hates us fer our freedoms" (?) Kinda proves the whole war on terrorism thangy is a crock of shit. And I just finished viewing some of the newly released Abu Ghraib torture pics on Salon.com. Yeah, buddy, I'm fucking impressed. Nothing like torturing innocent people to infuse a love of "freedom and democracy" in a Middle Eastern nation. Bush is fucking insane. His Mal-Administration is insane. The Military Brass are insane. Anyone who supports Bush is god damned fucking insane.

The uber-wealthy have no hint of patriotismm or nationalism left.

It's all for money.

True

6. Yeah, I wish it was Arabs and not a MIHOP.
We live in scarey times indeed. Sometimes I think Bin Laden is a CIA tool and nothing more.

7. I've suspected that
for some time now. Funny how ol' Binny boy always conveniently pops up when the Repukes have their ass in a crack. Right before the last "election", more recently when the indictments and Abramhoff scandal broke out. As another DUer stated on a different thread, Osama is the "gift that keeps on giving".

8. Don't give being INSANE a bad rap
Being "insane" is not synonymous with being in support of the bush

10. Why doesn't the US just give Iran enriched uranium to fuel their reactors?
Edited on Tue Feb-21-06 02:35 AM by NNN0LHI
I mean give it to them for free. All they need because we have plenty. Be a lot cheaper and smarter in the long run.

11. Too simple.
Edited on Tue Feb-21-06 02:54 AM by libhill
Anyway, we have to keep the gears of the perpetual war machine greased. If Iran didn't exist, we'd have to invent it. Just like Bin Laden, Saddam, Manuel Noriega, Castro, all of the others. Now that the Big Bad Soviet Bug Bear has faded from the scene, we have to have an enemy somewhere, don't we? If nothing else was available, we'd pick on some crappy ass Caribbean island, like Reagan did with Grenada. But I must admit, I always had this hidden fear of evil, gun toting, jack booted Grenadians marching down my street, and depriving poor little defenseless America of our "freedom".
