"We didn't attack them, they attacked us" Shays on Iraq C-SPAN
Edited on Thu May-24-07 04:53 PM by Solly Mack
he also said the "shame" wasn't from "going in" (Iraq) but will come from leaving early.

4. They are lying scum
Their belief in their cause frees them from the bonds of truth!

because we want their oil.

13. Lying or delusional?
The other one I've always liked is "We didn't start this but we're sure gonna finish it!"

18. Even Elisabeth says they didn't attack us!
DU: The View

At least that's what I thought she said! :crazy:

Perhaps Shays should be listening to Elisabeth...

23. They just simply NEVER STOP LYING. Not for a day, not for a minute.
If we had a real media, these lying shitheads wouldn't
be in office- most would have never gotten there in the
first place.

The biggest difference between the USA and the old USSR
is that 99% of the USSR's citizens knew that the TV and
newspapers were official propaganda.

Ours are JUST as bad, but a huge percentage of us just
keep thinking that they are getting real info from them.

They aren't.

We have got to be the most goddamn CLUELESS nation on
the face of the planet. And we LIKE it that way. Only
37% of US citizens even know that John Roberts is a
"conservative"...how does that compare to how much we
know about Paris Hilton?

30. Mostly, we "like" it because they TELL us we like it.
Independant critical thinking is no longer in vogue,
and the TV is a powerful hypnotic drug.

How do we ever break this downward spiral?
