Luthor seeked land. Cheney seeked oil. Same character but seeking different things.

Most superheroes have a dark side. Batman always has.

How in the world can a work of fiction be put forth as vindication for real world foreign policy??!!

Infact, how can a work of fiction be put forth as vindication of anything?

The only thing this vindicates in my mind is the right’s desperation to prove that their policies have been anything other than a total disaster.

“Taking care of the casting for the part of Robin, the Boy Wonder… well actually he said something about wondering about boy parts”

Batman didn’t invade Metropolis to catch the Joker, who was sitting in Gotham. That’s got to be the ultimate difference, at least in their motives…

“Go f*** yourself.”

And in the Codpiece-in-Chief’s words, too:

“Who cares what you think?”

Nobody, dude. If MSNBC and every other cable “news” channel were NOT exclusively propaganda outlets, Glenn Beck’s lowest-rated crappy show would have been canceled YEARS ago.

Batman caught the Joker within the same month as their first encounter

Had Batman received a credible intelligence warning that the Joker was going to attack Gotham city, he would have made an effort to prevent it

Batman was brave and did the work himself rather than send 4000 to die in the WRONG venue

Batman didn’t kill 500,000 people to get the Joker (and he actually CAUGHT the Joker!)

Besides Batman being a fictional story and character, BUSH HAS IGNORED THE CONVENTIONAL WISDOM ON HOW TO DEFEAT TERRORISTS AND HIS ACTIONS HAVE MORE HELPED THEIR CAUSE THAN ANYTHING.

Folks here act like we’re the first and only country to ever experience terrorism. One big attack is all it takes for some to give in to fear and surrender their judgement. Grow up you fools!

Batman refused to kill and took the blame for what he didn’t do.

Joker set up situations to cause chaos. In one, the hostages appeared as the bad guys. A false flag operation so to speak.

Joker played a “social experiment” where the participants thought it was either kill the other boat or be killed themselves with the anticipation that they would kill the others. But human nature proved better.

So is “terror, terror, terror” Bush more like Batman or the Joker ?

Sticking with the “Batman” theme, Cheney is The Penguin.

Mwah, mwah.

In “The Dark Knight” , Batman/Bruce Wayne accepts that his methods are indeed lawless ; and he PERSONALLY ACCEPTS RESPONSIBILITY for those actions , which make him an outlaw .

Where and when has Chimpy accepted any responsibility for ANYTHING ?????

One GLARING difference is that, if you’re going to take Glenn’s characterization to the fullest, Batman actually CAUGHT the Joker (i.e. OBL in their warped little minds).

At what point in the movie did Batman say: “You know, I’m just not that concerned about him”?

At what point in the movie did Batman invade London in order the stop the Joker…who was in Gotham?

At what point in the movie did Batman say there was “nothing illegal” about what he was doing? (unlike Boy George who can do no wrong)

At what point in the movie did Batman suddenly become NOT chased by the cops as well as everyone else for being an outlaw?

Did these fu(kers forget Harvey Dent’s speech? The one about how “Batman will have to answer for the laws he’s broken, but to US (i.e. THE PEOPLE)”?

Did they forget the part in the scene where Batman is “torturing” the Joker and the Joker LAUGHS at him? And then tells him “You have NOTHING to threaten me with. NOTHING to do with all your strength.” I would say this pretty much is an INDICTMENT of the power of torture, not vindication of it.

Did they forget the part about how Batman left the power of the eavesdropping in the hands of someone vehemently opposed to it, thereby ensuring it was destroyed after use?

Did they forget the scene where neither the convicts nor the innocent civilians could bring themselves to kill anyone else in order to save themselves?

Did they forget that:

THIS WAS A FU(KING MOVIE AND IS NOT REAL LIFE?

Sorry all for the rant, but I loved this movie for reasons that have NOTHING to do with real world politics, and I’m really PI$$ED that these ba$tards are even trying to ruin a BATMAN MOVIE for me…

Ugh…

Does the moral courage include his decision to torture people in violation of international and US law?

A brainless , zipperhead d0uchebag………………

We need to organize and get Francis Boyle in front of a congressional committee ASAP.

———–
Francis A Boyle, University of Illinois Law Professor and person who wrote bio-terrorism laws signed by first President George Bush, reported shortly after the anthrax attacks to FBI Agent Marion “Spike” Bowman that the anthrax was produced at Fort Dietrich. Agent Bowman had met Professor Boyle at a bio-terrorism conference earlier. The FBI responded by destroying the database that Professor Boyle used and the good professor was placed on a no-fly list.

Alex Jones interviews Francis Boyle in 2006

(Agent Bowman was later cited by the congress for impeding an investigation of Mohammad Atta before 9/11 and then received a raise)

Yeah there is at least one big difference between the two: Batman is competent at what he does.

George Bush and the conservatives, heroes in their own minds.
