Is this man a lunatic?

[Cascadian]

I took one look at this and I am thinking "Holy Sh__t! This man is crazy!" This confirms to me that the government is being overrun by armeggedonists and liars.


I wonder what Wesley Clark thinks of this General? He makes Clark look like a saint. Not putting down Clark or anything.

1. Is this a poll?

I vote looney

[Guaranteed]

14. I know "loony" when I see it....

And THIS guy's LOONY.

[Swede]

2. He's just a foot soldier in the cabal

[JanMichael]

3. "A Handmaid's Tale" is his Utopia.

Scary stuff.

Yes, he's CRAZY.

[elfwitch]

10. A Handmaid's Tale

Okay... Did that book scare the shit out of anybody else or was it just me? We may have to start including that one in the list with 1984 and Brave New World for the Repug handbooks for remaking America.

[kayell]

20. I reread Handmaid's Tale recently

It looks a lot closer to the BFEE plan even than 1984. A chilling, heartbreaking book. It scared the hell out of me when I read it years ago, and looks far closer to where we are headed now. I hope that Margeret Atwood doesn't turn out to be prescient. I'd certainly be shipped to the "colonies" in the Bush Republic of Gilead.

4. I've been thinking of "Handsmaid's Tale" lately...mmm

[fizzana]

5. What's the fuss?

According to the Pentagon, he didn't violate any millitary rules.

[berry]

12. I don't think it's clear that he was not in violation of the rules.

Sure, that's the RW defense, but in a press conference (yesterday I think), Rummy and Myers really danced around this, trying not to say anything at all. Myers finally said it was a "gray area."

The guy was giving these whacko speeches IN UNIFORM. To argue for his "free speech" but go ballistic when ABC interviewed disgruntled soldiers in Iraq is, at best, hypocritical.

[leesa]

26. What's the fuss?? He's a lunatic who is reflexively against ALL

Muslims and you can't see a problem?? He is in charge of hunting terrorists and he thinks ALL Muslims are evil in advance and you don't think there's a problem?

I seriously doubt Muslims have anything to do with the vast majority of alleged 'Muslim terrorist acts', including 9-11. Remember, we have NEVER been given any concrete proof that OBL or Al-Quaeda were involved with 9-11-01 event. We have far more circumstantial evidence that the Bush Crime Family was involved. And we have LOTS of evidence that Saddam and Iraq had nothing to do with it and did not promote terrorism.

This man hates Muslims and will blame them for it everytime. Just like our loser Resident Cheerleader. That is the fuss.

[monkeyboy]

6. You gotta love this guy

He says:

Muslims suck
Bush is in the White House because god put him there
He doesn't want to be misunderstood as some sort of right wing radical

Wha wha wha what!!!!????

LOONEY TOONEY

[jokerman93]

7. But what if...

See, it's occured to me: could this man's rhetoric be far more cynical than all that? Could this be Psy-ops - winning hearts and minds among America's unwashed faithful?

[Cessna Invesco Palin]

8. .

So... taking what appears to be the media's perspective on all of this...

It's ok to kill Muslims, but it's NOT ok to do it because God told you to. That's just freakin' great.

You know, I can't get over this. Big deals keep getting made out of garbage like this... meanwhile, absolutely NO attention has been paid to the lives or problems PEOPLE HE'S TALKING ABOUT KILLING!

[berry]

17. Good point.

Too many Americans, like Bush*, are far too casual about killing. So many, in fact, that it isn't "newsworthy." It IS still rare in the mainstream (though not, apparently, among fundies) to hear somebody say Bush* was chosen by God, let alone that God approves of murder and mayhem. Also, this general's rhetoric was SO incendiary that it adds to the violence in the air--and many of us think he is expressing what many of Bush*'s supporters (and maybe Bush* himself) really believe.

You're right. The real outrage needs to focus on the real crimes. But this is potentially poisonous, dangerous talk, and I think it's reasonable to make sure people know about it.

[kayell]

23. "Still rare in the mainstream" Then you haven't heard Charles Stanley

one of the most popular tv evangelists, leader of InTouch ministries. I had the misfortune one sunday morning of channel surfing by his show just as he uttered the amazing phrase "God loves war". Nearly lost my pancakes.

This lunatic (Stanley) has a huge following. Here is a link to the "sermon" I tuned in on that day. It has been edited down from what I heard, and now only contains the idea that God favors war. Lots of handy biblical justifications for killing people. Don't eat before reading. http://www.intouch.org/War/index_38027182.html

[Touchdown]

25. In Touch...he, he!

I remember In Touch was a gay porno magazine in the 80s-90s. Real filthy stories.








Or so I heard.:freak:

[ex_jew]

9. The Republican Party is the Lunatic Party

Pass it on !

[StephNW4Clark]

11. So next time you hear about some generals giving Clark grief...

...remember that they might not have the most *rational* reasons for doing so.

[StephNW4Clark]

13. Considering Clark pushed the Kosovo campaign to save Muslims...

...I'm guessing Clark and General "Let's Revive the Inquisition" wouldn't have too much to say to each other...

[tom_paine]

15. Not a lunatic, a Bushevik

Though there really aren't much distinctions between the two titles.

[DrWeird]

16. Just another storm trooper for the emperor.

nt

[hiphopnation]

18. certifiably

yes. eom

[brainshrub]

19. In a sane society

In a sane society, a man who claimed that God told him to kill people would be in an asylum. In Bush's America, these same men have access to Weapons Of Mass Destruction.

[rasputin1952]

21. There was another Lt Gen that was overly religious...

and a pretty good general to boot. LtGen "Stonewall" Jackson, not only was a religious zealot, he haed no problem with getting right out into the fray with his men.

While this guy is most likely no Jackson, he should understand that it is not necessarily God's Will to kill 'infidels' by the thousands.
People like this, give Freedom a bad name.

:bounce:

[Chovexani]

22. The guy is nucking futs

Just like everyone else associated with the BFEE.

[Scairp]

24. He's a fanatic

A much more dangerous person than just your garden variety loon. I cannot believe he will get away with this after Bush has been yelping for more than two years that this war on terrorism isn't a war against Islam. But at least someone in his administration is at last telling the truth.
