Comment by Holy Kow â€” February 1, 2007 @ 7:02 pm

You will go stark raving mad--I have been there for many years already grasshopper.

I am there now as you say...*stark raving mad.

BwahBwahBwaahhhaaaaahahhaa


I prefer my little dead Iraqi babies deep fried with no bones.
An imported delicacy from the cradel of civilization.
Now thems good eatin ya hear!

Have you ever seen the image of a man, perfectly etched in the sand?
Have you ever attempted to touch the image no matter how timid?
Only to find out that the image was that of a man who had been burned into the sand in a firestorm that was so hot it melted the sand and made it into etched natural glass?

The image was preserved so realistically.
Because the image itself was once, alive and breathing.
It was a man.</description>

		<description>Phantasyman,

How about some details on when and where you served? And how do you feel about Bush and the Republican-controlled 109th Congress cutting the VA budget and leaving it short a couple billion dollars? How do you like that they cut the funding in half for veterans&#039; head trauma research and treatment? Not like that&#039;s anything really important, eh? The Republican chair of the House Veterans Affairs committee last year decided to stop letting veterans service organizations like the VFW, American Legion, and DAV come in and testify before the VA budget was drawn up. It was common practice and common courtesy for years, but Rep. Buyer decided to put a stop to it. Okay by you? How about you go check out this site http://www.veteransforamerica.org/print_blog.cfm?bID=1212 and see how the Democrats and Republicans compare when it comes to REALLY supporting the troops. This president and the Republicans in Congress are the most anti-veteran and anti-troop that this country has ever seen.

If you&#039;re dumb enough to think that Bush is doing right by you, that he isn&#039;t just throwing bodies into the meat grinder to save himself from the shame of admitting he was wrong, I feel sorry for you. I hope you get a clue before you get your ass shot off, but maybe that&#039;s what it&#039;ll take to wake you up.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;The Last Chance, The Last Best Hope for Victory&lt;/strong&gt;

Today&#039;s Armed Services Comm hearing with Gen. Casey is on C-SPAN right night.  He&#039;s slick with his answers.  Surprised?  He is in large part responsible for the disaster in Iraq, and he will be rewarded with a new top position.  

The only good thing about these hearings is watching the GOP Bush lapdogs blame Casey for everything that has gone wrong.  Sen. Lindsay Graham&#039;s new mantra is &quot;last chance&quot; and &quot;last best hope for victory.&quot;  Watch Mitch McConnell and other GOP Senators beat this phrase to death in the upcoming Senate debate on Iraq. 

Now we find out that Bush lied again.  Double the number of troops in the &quot;surge&quot; and double / triple / quadruple or whatever the projected costs for the &quot;surge.&quot;  With no promise of success.  Deeper into the pit we go.</description>

		<description>Quadrajet, your memory is good. Yes, repubs accused Clinton of trying to change the subject from the important topic of bj&#039;s to the unimportant topic of fighting terrorism. Never mind that the author of Wag the Dog said his inspiration was Reagan&#039;s invasion of Granada to take the heat off of him for losing 243 Marines in Beruit.</description>

		<description>See the AEI PNAC plan was supposed to actually bring democracy to Iraq, Hearts Terrorists, Instead its a great big fiasco that has indebted you, and your children, (when and if you ever you grow up) for decades to come. Trillions. 

But what happened was that this think tank experiment, brought to us by chickenhawk college trained idjuts, was a bad plan. Instead of freeing the oppressed Bush has now freed the very terrorists he meant to help.

Now, it&#039;s a bigger quagmire than ever and I am reminded of that commercial where they are sitting around the Table and King Arthur is looking for answers. One guy puts a huge bag of gold on the table. King Arthur then asks &quot;Your not planning on throwing money at the problem are you?&quot;

Bechtel has pulled out, projects and schools will not be finished, the factories will not open, the electricity still doesn&#039;t work, and yet they are gonna throw more money, and troops, at the problem.

What a plan. Stay the Course!!  Yet the freepers, who cry about taxes, and want to see min wage abolished, will keep sending the terrorists all their hard earned dough!!

Genius I tell you!! 

Now the Democrats (I am not one nor Republican) Are gonna let George and Dick have their war, laying the blame squarely where it belongs, then the GOP will be going glub blub blub as their ship sinks, and you cannot save them.
And the fact of the matter is people don&#039;t wish Iraq to be a failure, the current administration has done that all by themselves. GOP Heart Failure.

But keep on yapping and trying to accuse me of being who I am not Rachel/Joanie/Stryker/ ad nauseum. You are truly funny to watch flop around. Like two seagulls battling for a dead fish on the sand. 

Fighting yourself of course. =) And the more you battle yourself Joanie/Stryker/Rachel the more insane you shall become. Eventually troll alert it will seem as if you are dematerializing and coming completely apart matter seperating from the light. Your thoughts will be thrown far and wide scattered into the aether, and you will think of suicide. You will go stark raving mad. 

But do keep guessing and continuing your Sybil rants.!! Bwhahahahaa!</description>

		<description>Phantasyman, I&#039;m sure that there are those in Iraq who do exactly as you say and are greatful, but again, that is not the reason we were given for our involvement there.

&lt;em&gt;Who wants to come home and hear that they killed people for nothing, or for the wrong reasons, or because someone lied? Or that their friends were killed for those same wrong reasons.&lt;/em&gt;

No one does and I understand your anger - but I think you&#039;re directing that anger at the wrong people.</description>
