Dear Karl (sorry if this is too long but anger rules)
Dear Karl



You said liberals were wimps about 9/11 and "Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 and the attacks and prepared for war.'' –

Let me just ask you Karl, why did it take 9/11 for you conservatives to get prepared for war? Why did your lap-puppet take a month long vacation in August 2001 after getting a briefing that said “Bin Laden Determined to Attack America?” And on the day of that savagery, how come your little shrubbery sat there in school with that wide-eyed ‘where’s my mommy’ stare instead of leaping into action? Was a goat story that comforting while NY burned?

Here are some headlines about the great conservative preparation and management of this war and the support-the-troops GOP Republicans who send our kids to die for your lie:

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Nearly $9 billion of money spent on Iraqi reconstruction is unaccounted for because of inefficiencies and bad management, according to a watchdog report published Sunday.

GOP blocks war-profiteering amendment
By John Stanton, CongressDaily

Republicans Wednesday blocked an effort by Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D., and Judiciary ranking member Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., to create stiffer criminal penalties for war profiteering.

CBS – SIXTY MINUTES:
GIs Lack Armor, Radios, Bullets


With a $400 billion defense budget you might think U.S. troops have everything they need to fight the war, but that's not always the case.

Correspondent Steve Kroft talks to a general, soldiers in Iraq, and their families at home about a lack of armored vehicles, field radios, night vision goggles, and even ammunition - especially for the National Guard and reserve units that now make up more than 40 percent of U.S. troops.

TOUGH QUESTIONS - NewsHour
December 8, 2004

Ray Suarez looks at some of the questions that U.S. troops put to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld while he visited them in Kuwait.

SPC. THOMAS WILSON: We're digging pieces of rusted scrap metal and compromised ballistic glass that has already been shot up, dropped, busted-- picking the best out of this scrap to put on our vehicles go into combat.

We do not have proper armament vehicles to carry with us North.

SPC. THOMAS WILSON: Why do we soldiers have to dig through local landfills for pieces of scrap metal and compromised ballistic glass to up-armor our vehicles and why don't we have those resources readily available to us? (Cheers and applause)

RUMSFELD: As you know, you go to war with the army you have, not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time.

Marines From Iraq Sound Off About Want of Armor and Men
by Michael Moss

On May 29, 2004, a station wagon that Iraqi insurgents had packed with C-4 explosives blew up on a highway in Ramadi, killing four American marines who died for lack of a few inches of steel.

Defense sees it's fallen short in securing the troops. The grunts already knew.

So explain it to me again Karl, about how you conservatives are so patriotic and prepared for war? Explain to me again how your sheer laziness prior to 9/11 endangered this country and it is not your fault? Explain how you conservatives lie without remorse while killing our best and brightest with your lies? Downing Street Minutes, ring a bell? WMD? I forgot - WMD is White House humor. War can be so funny!

Tell you what, Karl kiss my ass! You draft-dodging chicken-hawks of Lilly-livered Hill never want to die for your own causes as long as you can send others to do the dying for you. You make me sick, you pasty-faced excuse of modern political hate-speech! You are a despicable little pervert who molests dead bodies over and over and over again.

You didn’t show up for war when you had the chance in Vietnam. You can’t manage the war you just started. Your incompetence is only exceeded by your outright greed and refusal to accept responsibility by whining about liberals. You’re lower than eel puke on the bottom of the ocean.

Media? Helloooooo? Story here! Anybody home? Oh, right, - moved to Nantucket.


Karl, quite molesting the dead and just pack your bags and get the hell out of the people’s house! And on your way out, Karl – kiss my liberal combat veteran troop supporting ass!

2. all of which begs the question . . .
"So tell me, Karl . . . what exactly WAS the adminisration's involvement in either making 9/11 happen or, at minimum, allowing it to happen?" . . .

c'mon, Karl . . . inquiring minds want to know! . . .
