<sarcasm off>

Looks to me like Rummy's military are getting their asses kicked.
By the news reports, our glorious and heroic soldiers are having to
kill every man, women and child in affected areas ...but Noooooo...
this isn't like Viet Nam at all is it Bushbots?
No, it's not like Viet Nam...after all, there's no JUNGLE VEGETATION
in Iraq, therefore, it's not like Viet Nam.
If we can't use Agent Orange there, then it's not like Viet Nam
right?


Sorry folks, it's late at night and I'm sick and tired of this
corrupt administration and these phony Bushbots and phony Christians
and I'm damned sickened by seeing cars with Bush bumper stickers...
Somebody needs to shoot that son of a bitch whore.
The entire Bush Crime Family needs to be hanged for treason imo.

Ok, end of rant, good nite friends.
