Freeps discuss moving to Iraq if Obama wins so they can live in a free country

[Amerigo Vespucci]

Reactions to the Freep post in response to an AFP article, "US election: If Iraqis could vote it would be for McCain" (http://www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=081030170209.3wcxfwin&show_article=1)...

Hmm.

Should Obama win, Iraq might become an option alongside Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

Should Obama win, Iraq might become an option alongside Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.

That thought has crossed my mind more than once.

It is after all, a free country. ;-)

P.S. Fair warning - it gets a little hot in the summer here.

1. Can I chip in for airfare?

:7

[yasmina27]

44. I'll throw in a few pennies :) n/t

[SoCalDem]

50. I'll donate too n/t

[Owl]

69. Same here, though only for a one-way ticket.

[emdee]

65. They would take your money and then stay! nt

nt

[merh]

76. I'll chip in and help them pack.

:hi:

[yardwork]

2. Good, good. They think it's been such a success. I'll help them pack.

[BrklynLiberal]

6. Yes. Wecould start a domestic "peace corps" sort of group to help them pack...

[EstimatedProphet]

31. In their case, it would be a "war corps".

[Bubbha Jo]

3. Someone needs to tell them Sharia Law is the top law of the land there now.

[Pyrzqxgl]

4. When are people going to learn how to spell "moron"?

We've had one in the Presidency for 8 years. You'd think we'd know how to spell it.

[DefenseLawyer]

9. You are preaching to the quire, my friend. It is a hugh problem.

Seriesly.

[donco6]

47. But it's way funnier THIS way.

[DefenseLawyer]

5. Well... bye.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

22. The sheer number of Tombstone "touchstones" in this election is staggering.

Yes, it's one of my top ten all time favorite movies, and yes, I will quote the movie at the drop of a hat, but the quotes are all so...apt and fitting.

:patriot:

[DefenseLawyer]

49. Campaigning with Sarah Palin is like playing cards with your brothers kids. n/t

[JPettus]

98. I have the poster in my office

Next to my desk.

Justice Is Coming

and at the bottom: Every town has a story. Tombstone has a legend.

"Why Johnny Ringo. You look like someone just walked over your grave."
"I'm your huckleberry."

[Why Syzygy]

7. Great. I'll donate. They can charter.

No no! No, Canada. SOCIALIST. Boo!

[jody]

8. What a difference a few months make. Not long ago there were several posts on DU implying the poster

would leave the U.S. if our Democratic Party did not win the presidency.

Things change, :shrug:

[KSDiva]

45. None of us wanted to move to a war zone,

that will be a battleground for generations to come, though.

I'm astounded that they think Canada, Aussie and New Zealand would somehow be better than the states...oh, wait, they have better health care there....LOL

[jody]

55. I'll stay in the U.S. and continue to fight for We the People and against They the Corporatists.

I owe that to my children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and future generations.

Benito Mussolini said "Fascism should more appropriately be called Corporatism because it is a merger of State and corporate power."

[Az_lefty]

10. Let'em enlist, it'll be a free trip over.

[spanone]

11. so they buy into the hoax that iraq is now a safe place to live???

these are some sick motherfuckers.....so why do they think our soldiers are there?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

20. All of those insipirational clips of McCain in the Green Zone with a bulletproof vest...

...and a few dozen bodyguards. Why, it's just like a weekend farmers market in Kansas City, my friends!

:rofl:

[Window]

32. What spanone said.

[FVZA_Colonel]

57. I'm sure they're ignoring the wave of violence today that has left at least ten people dead.

[11 Bravo]

12. Hell, all the chickenshit bastards need to do is enlist!

Uncle Sam will deliver them to freedom on a perfectly good airplane, and will even throw in an M-16. Lock and load, heroes!

[Libby2]

Good, do they need some help packing?

This country would be so much better off without those selfish assholes.

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

13. This is great to hear, since we're so short on troops. I'm glad they'll be fighting......ohhhh.....

ohhh........ They aren't going over to fight in the war they love? They're just going to LIVE there? OK. Got it.

[Critters2]

14. So they haven't heard how Christians are being treated in Iraq?

Good. They need to see what REAL persecution looks like.

[melody]

15. I'll help them pack

Really and truly.

I hate to tell UltraSonic this but Canada and New Zealand are more to the left than Obama ... and Australia will get back there as soon as we do.

[anakie]

35. Australia already is there

remember last November when we kicked John Howard out. Freepers would not like Australia; send them all to Iraq.

On edit ... NZ is holding an election next weekend which may see the election of a right/centre right government.

http://www.theage.com.au/world/new-zealand-poll-a-monstrous-bind-for-major-parties-20081101-5fxb.html


Peace

[melody]

52. Yes, I know you kicked Howard out but things go in phases

As the US goes, so goes Australia it seems and vice versa.

Freepers wouldn't even like Iraq. There's not a country totalitarian enough for them.

[treestar]

16. Wouldn't that make them terrorists?

:rofl:

Or are they finally going to sign up for the military?

:rofl:

[Amerigo Vespucci]

23. They're going to invent a new category..."TOUR-orists."

"They CAME! They SAW! They WET THEMSELVES! They WENT HOME!"

:rofl:

[eissa]

17. My family in Baghdad would glady trade

They're Assyrian Christians so they've gotten the really raw end of this war - sharia laws in the central and the south, and kurdish thugs in the north. They're desperate to get out. I'm sure they'd be more than willing to trade their flat in Baghdad to one of those poor repukes longing to live in a "free Iraq" for a green card :D

[Ishoutandscream2]

51. Wish you could send that post to FR

Oh, hell, what am I thinking about? They would be too damned stupid to understand it.

[WI_DEM]

18. Good!

[union_maid]

19. Hey, that'd be great with me

The Iraqi people might be less than thrilled and they've had a lot to put up with but it'd clear the air here.

Canada? That's where WE wanted to go after 2004. If both sides look at Canada as a possible refuge, maybe we should all just work on taking Canada's best ideas and making them work for us, eh?

[Renew Deal]

21. lol, good thing about Iraq... Everyone owns a gun.

Bad thing... Freepers in Iraq are going to need them.

[HughMoran]

24. Goddamned freeeptards

:rofl:

They are entertaining me.

[TrogL]

25. They're not going to do well in any of those countries

Especially Canada.

We've got a "Conservative" government that due to the wierdities of Canadian politics is actually to the left of the Democratic party.

The rest of the Commonwealth countries are also "socialist".

[keith the dem]

26. A group of disenfranchised people leaving....

I think it's been done before. This time when they leave, those Rethugs could call their new country LIE-beria.

[redqueen]

27. A most excellent idea.

Let's hold a fundraiser and help them get there.

[hulklogan]

28. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha Iraq and Canada?

Wait until they realize that the Conservative Party in Canada is more socialist than Obama, and there are actual laws about hate speech there!

[WA98070]

29. I don't think Canada wants them.

[bkcc]

30. Awesome. I say let 'em go.

I'm sure when they arrive, they'll be greeted as liberators.
...or something like that.

:)

[BurtWorm]

33. So it takes having a black man elected president to get them to go to Iraq?

I guess they didn't want to go when Bush was "president" because they wanted to savor every minute of the Bush era at home.

:patriot:

[quispquake]

34. Hey Skinner!

I've got a GREAT idea for a fundraiser once the election is over :)

[Jennicut]

36. Iraq? FREEPTARDS! At least WE were going to move to Cananda after 2004.

Remember that? Iraq has huge spiders and scorpions too. I hope they move there and something nasty bites them, it would serve them right. They are like half-humans to me.

[RichardRay]

37. If they want to move to Iraq or Afghanistan there's a really easy

way for them to get there.

Volunteer for the US Army. Heck, they'll even give you a really nice automatic weapon and some cool camo gear.

[mollymongold]

38. they should. nt

[auburngrad82]

39. You can't make shit like this up

Seriously.

:wtf:

[ddeclue]

40. BWA HA HA!!! Best. Idea. EVER!!!

Let's pay to send them there and send our troops home...They've already f'd up the green zone in Iraq imagine how screwed up they would make the place if they were everywhere....These people would be stunned at their own incompetence eventually when they find out had bad they are without a Democrat to cover their asses for them.


Doug D.

[djg21]

41. Isn't there a conunty in South America . . .

that will take fascist fuckwads and war criminals.

[zulchzulu]

42. Hey, I'll buy these asshats a rubber raft n/t

[Norrin Radd]

43. They should just fulfill Dumbya's pledge to visit Mars.

[Joanne98]

46. Haven't the Iraqis suffered enough?

[alcibiades_mystery]

48. They'll be dead inside a week

[Overseas]

53. Go For It Guys !! Sayonara! Hasta la vista! Tsai jen! Aloha ! //nt

[Jacobin]

54. maybe we should take up a collection for their plane tickets

[youthere]

56. I will happily drive them to the airport.

[BR_Parkway]

58. To all NC freepers - I will help you pack, pay part of your airfare and send

cold Mountain Dew every summer if that's what it takes to get rid of you. Sure wish the prisoners could pick you up off the side of the road like they do the rest of the garbage.

[StreetKnowledge]

59. Message to the Freepers

Don't come to Canada. Really. You'll hate it up here with the socialized healthcare and no racism and weak military and people playing football to different rules.

[kwolf68]

60. This idiot wants to move to Canada if Obama is elected?

You mean that socialist nation that provides health care to its citizens?

Do these people actually think?

[WinkyDink]

61. "DU'ers discuss helping them pack."

[JuniperLea]

62. I'll help them pack!

[Vinca]

63. The idiots will get a free ticket there if they head down to the enlistment office. nt

[RagAss]

64. hey ain't goin nowhere !....The re-education camps are waiting.

[Rebellious Republican]

66. I know where they can pick up an M-16 and a back pack along the way...

http://www.goarmy.com/flindex.jsp?#?channel=&video=

[BlueIdaho]

67. Well... Canada and New Zealand don't want them - so I guess that does leave Iraq!

Can we help buy a few one way plane tickets for them?

[Chovexani]

68. Oh for fuck's sake

Haven't the Iraqi people suffered enough? :P

[fed_up_mother]

70. Like that bunch of chickenshits would get off their butts and do something like that.

HA!

In my dreams, maybe...


:)

[NYC Liberal]

71. Good. Bush can go too. Heck, he can even be president of Iraq!

Actually...I wouldn't do that to the Iraqis. They've suffered enough.

[drm604]

72. They can get a free trip there.

All they have to do is head to their local recruiting office.

[TheKentuckian]

73. Finally, they have located their home away from home.

Iraq is the perfect destination for the Freepers. Theocracy, shoot 'em if you got 'em, Applebee's in the Green Zone, and of course they can Drill, baby, drill to their little black heart's content.

[Left Is Write]

74. Do they really think Canada, Australia and New Zealand want them?

Please.

Let them go to Iraq. We'll see how popular that makes them there.

[Psst_Im_Not_Here]

87. They won't have them. n/t

[nichomachus]

75. Well, they can go, but first

they have to talk their parents into moving there -- so they'll have a basement to live in.

[hvn_nbr_2]

77. Hey, freeps, your Uncle will be glad to pay all your expenses to get there. nt

[samsingh]

78. the freeps are cowards and full of shit - they don't have the guts

to face real life and the mess that they and their idiot leader created there.

[sad sally]

79. head out, hozer - don't look back - you can do it

[Takket]

80. we should be so lucky -nt-

[Laelth]

85. Welcome to DU!

The United States is a LIBERAL Country.

:dem:

-Laelth

[DuaneBidoux]

81. Alternate reality. Iraq better than U.S.? Not even under Bush.

[Takket]

82. we should be so lucky -nt-

nt

[Danger Mouse]

83. I, for one, would be very happy to see some freepers move to Iraq.

Not that I wish any violence on them, but I think their eyes would soon be opened...heh.

[Canuckistanian]

84. Pssst! Freeps! They LOVE Christian Bush supporters in Iraq.....

When you go there, tell EVERYONE you're a Christian supporter of George Bush!

You'll be showered with fragrant flowers and fresh little candies!

Trust me!

[paparush]

86. Yep. Free. All the War, Wiretapping, and Waterboarding you can stomach.

Go for it you FREAKS!

Iraq??? Oh, I shit myself laughing. Iraq. HA! Right. Joe the Plumber and Joe Six Pack are gonna pack up the SUV, load the 9mm's and roll into Baghdad, gangsta style. RIIIIGHT. The mobs of starving Iraqis would shred them and use the SUV as a day care center.

Joe & Joe - Wait..wait. We liberated you people. We freed you from a cruel dictator! Remember?

Iraqis - I got your WMD's right here motherf_ckers!!!!!!!!!!!! This is for my grandmother! This is for my old uncle! This is for my 8 year old daughter! This is for the cruelty and misery you brought to our country!

[KingFlorez]

88. It really says a lot about them when they'd rather live in a warzone

[and-justice-for-all]

89. See ya!

[RBInMaine]

90. That IDIOT is questioning others' brains? Huh, typical IDIOT brainfart-head RePUG. What a collection

of fucked up IDIOTS ! FUCK THEM TO TEARS !

[RBInMaine]

91. I'll buy your tickets if you promise to leave you WHACKJOB REPUKES !

[surrealAmerican]

92. Iraq is an excellent idea. They'll love it there.

Canada, Australia, and New Zealand are all, however, far more liberal than Barack Obama.

[PatriotGames]

93. Bwahahahah! Friggin' morAns.

[Hestia]

94. and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out...

[MadrasT]

95. Buh-bye, asshats, don't let the door hit you on the way out! n/t

[PatriotGames]

96. Asshats. LOL.

[Erin Elizabeth]

97. Oh I STRONGLY encourage them to do so.

Not that the Iraqis ever did anything to deserve the likes of them living there, but in a split second, they'd be BEGGING to come back to the US and get back to their Xbox 360 and Cherry Limeades from Sonic and their cheap China made crap from Satan's Five & Dime.

And they'd never ever compare Detroit to Baghdad again. They'd gladly live in Detroit after Iraq.

[Raine]

99. Whooop don't let the door hit your ass on the way out

I'll gladly chip in for a one way ticket for them. :rofl:

[AZBlue]

100. I volunteer to help them pack!

Buh bye...
