Alright. Know what? I've had it with this kind of crap. Typh, you know I love ya and all, but this shyt is really pissing me OFF.
You people STILL don't get it, do you?
Protest? Here's what THINKING protesters have an issue with: the rest of it. OK! Saddam gone? Clap hands... what's next? Hm? Our "friends" in Saudi? Hm? NK? Congo? Where ELSE will we go, championing human rights? Hm? WHEN will it end? When every bloody dictator is gone from the Earth? OK! Since we are so ever consistent with our policies, since this was about danger to the world, human rights and WMDs and loony dictators... Lets go to it! THere's certainly no shortage of human shredding boxes and folks who enjoy operating them! LET'S GO! There's more than one unstable area on the planet. There's more than a few countries that could benefit from our help.
Let's get them! If these are the reasons, and I am sure they are, well, we gotta be consistent, right?
NEXT. Now the fighting MAY be done. If so? GREAT. ALL FOR IT. Next? Hm? Repercussions? GO on. TELL me there will be none. Diplomatic ( Because it ain't as if the vast majority of the people on this planet are FOR this stuff... coalition of 40 something countries... most of whom coerced, wheedled and cajoled into coming along, OVER the protests of their populations... and why should we listen to THEM, right?), Political, TERRORIST... sure. I'm just being a hysterical sally. FBI probably thought issues leading to 9/11 were hysterical too. Fact is, you, me, NONE of us know how this will all play out in the end- IF there is an end. So ****ing quit the goddamned slamming based on speculation.
Now, here's the other thing: GET. OFF. PROTESTERS. They have an opinion. Valid. They voice it. VALID. They have concerns. VALID. SOme break laws to do it? Civil Disobedience. VALID. We have a LONG history with it here in the home of the ****ing free (not all offers valid, void where prohibited by law). You people deriding the whole group? PISSY, PETULANT AND INVALID and yeah, PARTISAN (worst reason of all). People have statements, people have concerns, people have messages, People have rights to express ALL of these, like it or not. LET THEM. AND RESPECT THEM. ANd DON'T GIVE me the "well, they don't respect me so..." crap. You're so big? ACT LIKE IT. IF you people continue to call these folks "Peaceniks" and "morons", well, DON'T bitch if they call you war mongering baby killing short sighted inconsistent hypocritical dinks. It's all one. And you play the same game.
I'm out. Said my piece. We now return you to your regularly scheduled smug little parlor game.
