Ok, So what's the deal with "5", I have a general idea of what it is but i want specifics. You see it everywhere and in all forms, what the heck is "5"?, other than the number after 4, before 6. Did Freepers start this trend?

I think the Bush bots use it to imply that anyone who questions the War Decision is a fifth columnist. That is, an agent for the enemy posing as a citizen.

As another poster pointed out, unlike written arguments, images can not be directly refuted. Thus the use of these "5" images is an attempt to "shout down" logical debate with a sort of name calling.

When war is declared, I will rally 'round the flag like the rest of them. I would feel better about it if I knew Iraq was behind 9/11. That case has not been made.

It's shorthand for "I don't have an original thought to add."

Basically, the fifth column is one living in our country but a "secret" supporter of the enemy

And please note, to a Southern Nationalist (such as YT), a five-dollar bill is best used as toilet paper because of the portrait on its frontspiece...if it weren't worth five dollars, that is.

You don't even know what the debate is about, do you?

Who is arguing that Iraq is behind 9/11?

If you doubt that a man who used poison gas on his own people wouldn't use it on you, well, then, don't inhale too deeply for awhile.
