Pardon me for not celebrating. [View All]

[Philosoraptor]

I guess I'm a jerk, but I certainly don't see the need to stand up and cheer cause Saddam swung. What are we celebrating exactly? How are things any better over there now? Besides satiating our lust for vengeance, which supposedly isn't even ours but the Lord's, why exactly should I be cheering and raising a glass and grinning ghoulishly?

In my opinion, you'd have to be an idiot of the highest order to stand up and cheer drunkenly just because the Iraqis executed their dictator that we put there. While 100 tortured bodies a week are being found in the streets of Baghdad, and we've reached the 3000 dead soldiers mark, there can be no real cause for throwing a victory party.

All in all, I think the neo cons and the republics and the rednecks just want that big victory party they've been fantasizing about for 6 years now. They've been deprived of their feel good high fives and pats on the back, and now they can jump up and cheer for a few minutes and masturbate over the barbarian spectacle of Vercingetorix executed for Caesar and the glory of Romerica.

Pardon me for not celebrating while I watch the hidden flag draped coffins go rolling along.
