This communist regime did this to my son!

[pdx_prog]

The plot: Whacko, self righteous, intellectual wannabee, mean conservative woman in a VERY blue city and state. Trying to pursuade the last few people who will even talk to her that her way is the only way. Received this today, she is telling this story at her whatever, whacko group meeting tonight.....





My son XXXX graduated from Navy boot camp about two years ago.

At that time, the graduates of his class (or platoon or whatever) were given the option to deploy to Guantanimo Bay or take regular assignments. My son bacame good friends in boot camp with a particular young fellow who decided to serve at Guantanimo Bay.

He and my son stayed in touch and he often described to my son the cushy life the prisoners had there.

In the summer, my son got married and invited his friend to be his best man. His friend also got married around that time, then went back to Guantanimo Bay.

There was a prisoner there who was known for throwing feces at the guards. The soldiers got wise to him and stayed out of his way, but day, this prisoner got the idea to mix some of his feces in water and threw it on my son's friend, who happened to have his mouth open at the time. He took some of the contaminated water into his mouth and soon developed a case of sepsis, from which he abruptly died.

This young man was at the beginning of his adult life, and newly married. He had one month of happiness with his new bride before the incident that killed him.

The death was never publicized. The fact that this young man was cut down in the prime of his life in such a horrible way. enrages me. When I think about the fact that the animal who did this to my son is no doubt still alive, and is either living a comfy life in a US detention facility, or has been freed by this corrupt administration.

The absolute hatred this president has for our military, and indeed our country, seems to know no bounds.

Tonight I am going to a meeting of the XXXX Policy Institue to meet with other conservatives. I feel I need to do something to rebel against this Communist regime, and I am hoping to find something that I can actually DO.

1. So she's pissed off at Castro?

She should really learn how to spell Guantanamo.

[izquierdista]

2. Brain-eating zombies from Mars

Is a more believable plot that the one outlined above. When it is said that "truth is stranger than fiction", they weren't taking the fiction of paranoid right-wing lunatics into account.

[foxfeet]

3. She, of all people, should be aware of the hazards of shit in the mouth.

But it hasn't stopped her.

[pdx_prog]

5. Best reply of the day....on any thread...

[geardaddy]

6. DUzy!

:applause:

[tularetom]

4. See, if the guy would have kept his mouth shut he'd still be alive today

This story is total bullshit. Crafted to appeal to emotional people with easily manipulated minds and quick triggers.

[Maru Kitteh]

7. If she's going to attempt a bald faced lie with medical details

she should do a little more research first. If she can't be bothered to come up with a plausible scenario she could at least get her terminology correct.

FAIL.

[geardaddy]

8. What utter twaddle.

So, what if this happened under Boosh?

[sinkingfeeling]

9. I guess, if it were a true story, that I might be mad at the military that couldn't save the young

man from 'sepsis'. Not sure, what this mother of a military man thought joining the military means... a nice vacation in a foreign land? Maybe she should have some anger over the 5465 Americans that have died in the middle east fighting a war of aggression.

10. fatal poo in the mouth? Mooslime Untermenschen? Castro?

the mind of a con is a scary, scary place

[arcane1]

11. 2 years ago = May 2008

but I bet the commie is question isn't Bush

[Onceuponalife]

12. "comfy" life at Guantanamo?

:rofl:

[cyclezealot]

13. Communist. ?. Fighting Tailban terrorists. How you figure.

Don't get us wrong.. We all deeply regret what happened to this sailor.. But, Communist. Anti Communism was a part of the rational that got us into Iraq, Afghanistan. Which was done by GW Bush. He a Communist..? Most of us want out of Afghanistan asap.. And want Gitmo closed. Enemy combatants is just prolonging justice and delaying resolution cause some of the Gitmo prisoners were likely arrested with flimsy evidence..
1. Can something be done to the scum who did this to your son. Capital Punishment. Sounds like murder.. 2. Sorry, but prison duty is hazardous. Same goes for US prisons. Prison guards die every week.. It is dangerous duty and that is a given when soldiers sigh up. We all mourn our losses. We hope jusice can be done to this sick prisoner.
The VA offers help we hope through out your grief and VA benefits will be of consolidation .
Meanwhile, all we can do is pressure our politicians to get out of this decade old war. If we could get all Americans to agree that is what they want.

14. I like how the story veers off the rails by saying therefore by saying the

'animal who did this to my son is no doubt still alive, and is either living a comfy life in a US detention facility, or has been freed by this corrupt administration", stating the pres. has hatred for the military.

Where do these people come from? Talk about going off on a tangent. It sounds like an email forward lie, and even if real, how is what happened to him the pres. fault? She should be saying, 'he shouldn't have been so pro-military in keeping Guantanamo open, and closed it as he promised when he was running!"

you meet with those "Policy Institue" folks... have fun with that.

[Codeine]

15. Ass-to-mouth is fun, but be careful, kids! nt

[struggle4progress]

16. I think sepsis would be an uncommon outcome from ingesting a trace of fecal material

[tavalon]

17. I'm assuming that wasn't your first clue that this was bogus propaganda, right?

[struggle4progress]

18. Perhaps I was too shocked by the lack of basic public health knowledge

to remember any of the other clues. Why couldn't the author let the poor fellow die a dramatic death from typhoid fever while Army medical personnel looked on, confused and helpless? Or, if sepsis were essential, why couldn't the author tell how the prisoner had lanced a big staph boil on the poor fellow's neck with a sharpened pencil? It speaks poorly of the author's education or writing skills
