1. Can't wait to see her army.
Edited on Fri Feb-04-05 05:27 AM by aquart
For those who claim Bush isn't Hitler, here is a good argument for you: Hitler had the brains to BUILD UP his military BEFORE he invaded anyone.

9. If we nuke them WE will be destroyed.
Not that George would consider that possibility.

Every Muslim on the planet would consider it a mission to kill Americans. And if they thought they were going to be nuked anyway.....

And would it be a surgical nuke? We wouldn't want to contaminate the oil, now would we?

It's just stupid. Bush's hallmark, in fact.

17. What is a Surgical Nuclear strike???
Nuclear weapons aren't exactly low yield weapons.

Using nuclear weapons as a surgical strike option is akin to a surgeon amputating a patient's leg to treat an ingrowing toe-nail.

18. "Little Nukes" will be used, not the Hiroshima type
less dramatic, but just as effective.

25. Actually, the Hiroshima ...
nukes are about as small as they come, yield wise. Maybe we can field some with 1/2 the yield, but that is still a pretty big bang.

The vast majority of the arsenal are 5-50 times the size of the original Fatboy/Little Man bombs.

19. Hitler refused to learn from Napolean's mistakes, * is learning disabled
That will speed up the process of his self-destruction as would-be emperor of the world.

And all of us along with him, unfortunately.

3. I'm watching her, it's frightning
Why is it that this misadministration only gives a shit about freedom in OIL producing countries? Liberty and Justice for OIL!!!

She keeps using that F word, again and again--freedom, freedom, oops, there's a liberty.

I guess our country is stupid. They buy this shit!!

4. If we had to attack someone, it should have Iran
They were the real threat all along, while we bulldozed a statue in Baghdad they were developing nuclear weapons.

Real smart dubs.

20. Another stupid mistake won't correct Iraq. Iran is far more formidable
If you think 1,500 U.S. casualties were a waste, you'll get 15,000 or 150,000 or more in the event of an invasion of Iran.

If we launch a preemptive strike against their nuclear facilities (or let our surrogate do it), they'll launch their missiles with chemical and bio weapons against US bases throughout the region. The Iranians can put 17 million men under arms. Their armed forces and industry haven't been degraded by a decade of sanctions and bombing, like Saddam's Iraq.

Think about it.

16. if bliar goes along with her, he'll face civil insurrection at home
The most he can do is provide tacit "looking the other way" and
apologist, "peace in our time" appeasement services.

He'll face more than a back bench revolt if he thinks he can start
a second war on lies. He is already on extremely thin ice at it is.

23. You are missing the point. Bush is NOT stupid. This is what he WANTS
Bush WANTS to "lose" this battle.

He believes he is fulfilling Biblical prophesy to bring about the war of the apocalypse.

He thinks he is the antichrist.

22. attack on Iran "is simply not on the agenda"
LONDON - Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice (news - web sites) said a U.S. attack on Iran "is simply not on the agenda," despite the United States' continued criticism of Iran's human rights record and suspected nuclear weapons ambitions.


.......we all know what that means, either Israel will attack them with our tacit approval, or it's just an outright lie, which Condi is known to do every time she speaks for her white devil masters.

24. Remember:
Iraq wasn't "on the agenda" either.

Total BS. The agenda is pretty clear.

Wonder if they will trot Condi out in front of the UN with a vial and dire warnings of WMD?

26. So she can go into her shaky little girl voice???
Sometimes she sounds like an adult and sometimes she sounds like a little girl who is caught red handed lying about having her hand in the cookie jar.

28. That's her Mary Tyler Moore voice.
How will you make it on your own?
This world is awfully big, girl this time you're all alone


I can't decide if W or Cheney is Mr. Grant. Rummy is definitely Ted.

(And I wish I had never thought of this analogy, because I really loved that show.)

30. Damn -- you're right
her little girl voice reminded me of something . . . .

I'm wondering how much lower the US can sink in the eyes of the world -- she is a joke -- a nasty mean joke -- but a joke none the less.

Mr. Grant -- I think I blew up the wrong nation.

32. These idiots don't listen to the people
Or, to anyone with half an ounce of common sense.
Think about it for a minute, Iran has a formidible military, and much more difficult terrain. Iran has an air force, navy, and a defense network.
If they use tatical nukes, then we are in the wrong and an aggresser nation to be shunned and punished by the rest of the world.
Iran has been cozying up with China, do you think they'll let someone steal the resources they need.

Our sheeple might bleat again for this trick, but the world will not, not everyone carries this rapture bullshit around with them.
