Montgomery Burns Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 77 y/o Iraq voter, Betty Dawisha, has a message: "Anybody who doesn't appreciate what America has done, and President Bush, let them go to hell!" Click on link to see video; it wouldn't allow me to hotlink it. ------- Obviously she is a neocon. The Iraqis hate the US and want Saddam back in power. I bet she has shares in Halliburton. She is a puppet for the Bush Regime; I swear I saw a glimpse of Karl Rove's hand behind her back. NO BLOOD FOR OOIILLLLL! Quote "Anybody who doesn't appreciate what America has done, and President Bush, let them go to hell!" -- Iraqi Betty Dawisha, after dropping her vote in the ballot box, wields The Cluebat™ to the anti-liberty crowd on Dec 13, 2005. "Call me crazy, but I think they [iraqis] were happy with thier [sic] dumpy homes before the USA levelled so many of them" -- Gerryhatrick, Feb 3, 2006.

You don't say Mr. Bush? I NEVER would have guessed that. Thanks for steering me straight. I won't ever doubt you again. This amounts to a war crime. Quote

You don't say Mr. Bush? I NEVER would have guessed that. Thanks for steering me straight. I won't ever doubt you again. This amounts to a war crime. The flood of bullshit never stops, does it? "My decision to remove Saddam Hussein was the right decision," the president said. "Saddam was a threat and the American people, and the world is better off because he is no longer in power." A threat to who? His military was an empty shell which posed little threat to his immediate neighbours, let alone the world. His WMD programs were nonexistent. His ties to terrorism were, at best, tenuous. So how did this contained, nutured thug pose a thraet to anyone? "We are living through a watershed moment in the story of freedom," Bush said. "Iraqis will go to the polls to choose a government that will be the only constitutional democracy in the Arab world. Yet we need to remember that these elections are also a vital part of a broader strategy in protecting the American people against the threat of terrorism." Yeah constitutional democracy means a lot to people with no electricity, running water, jobs or even the ability to leave their homes without getting robed, kidnapped or killed outright. "It took a four-year civil war and a century of struggle after that before the promise of our Declaration (of Independence) was extended to all Americans," Bush said. "It is important to keep this history in mind as we look at the progress of freedom and democracy in Iraq." Yeah: let's compare a domestic revolution with a government imposed at gunpoint by a foreign government. "Over the course of this war, we have learned that winning the battle for Iraqi cities is only the first step," Bush said. "We also have to win the battle after the battle by helping Iraqis consolidate their gains and keep the terrorists from returning." Because an guerrilla war is all about winning territory? As Iraqi forces gain experience and the political process advances, we will be able to decrease our troop level in Iraq without losing our capability to defeat the terrorists." When the number of battle ready Iraqi troops reache dabove the current 300 or 400, then maybe you can start crowing. Quote
Montgomery Burns Posted December 14, 2005 Author Report Posted December 14, 2005 It appears that some on this thread aren't enjoying getting PWNED by a 77 y/o Iraqi woman. Here's some pics for you to chew on. ------ Those Iraqi voters dancing were obviously actors hired by The Bush Regime. I'll bet those pics were taken by a Fox News photographer. *Screws tinfoil beanie tighter on head and furiously gulps down the Kool-aid* Foaming at the mouth....eyeballs bulging.....veins popping out of temple....must let out a Moonbat Mantra: NO BLOOD FOR OOIILLLLLLL Quote "Anybody who doesn't appreciate what America has done, and President Bush, let them go to hell!" -- Iraqi Betty Dawisha, after dropping her vote in the ballot box, wields The Cluebat™ to the anti-liberty crowd on Dec 13, 2005.

Shady Posted December 14, 2005 Report Posted December 14, 2005 Come'on Burns, by now you must realize that the kook-left's hatred for President Bush trumps anything good for the world and Iraq. Bush lied, regardless of what people like George "It's a slam dunk" Clinton appointee Tenent had to say, regardless of what the world's other intelligence agencies had to say, and regardless of the official regime change position of the United States government in 1998 had to say.

kimmy Posted December 17, 2005 Report Posted December 17, 2005 UN observers said there were high levels of participation even in Sunni areas of the country. If that's the case, their participation adds legitimacy to the process. It will further marginalize the insurgents: if the whole country is participating in the elections, it somewhat undermines the claim that they're fighting to free the country. -k Quote (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Friendly forum facilitator! ┬──┬◡ノ(° -°ノ)

Um: No, for that you'd have to go to Zarqawi or one of his associates. Actual Iraqi citizens appear to be signing on with the pro-liar movement. The false dichotomy here is, basically, your rehash of the old saw that "you're either with us or you're wih the ter'rists." In this case, the role of "us" is being played by "actual Iraqi citizens", despite the fact that many of those folks also happen to be "the terrorists". Based on high turnout and (temporary) lull in violence, those "actual Iraqis" who support Bush's vision took the time to vote, after which they went back to blowing things and people up. Quote

I'm saying that Zarqawi (who is a foreigner in Iraq) is in one category, while the Iraqis "appear" to be signing on with a different cause unrelated to terrorism. There isn't the intent to create a false sense that there are only two options; I *tried* to reinforce the concept of alternative possibilities by infering that Kerry supporters fall into a totally different category. In any case, the word "appears" indicates that my assessment of Iraqi opinion is not an absolute. Or such was my intent. Sheesh, and to think that I was trying to be funny.
