Earlier this week, the DUmmies were left with EGG on their collective faces when it turned out that their hero, Jessie MacBeth, who confessed to committing war crimes in Iraq was a Fake Army Ranger. After having to gorge on crow, the DUmmies are now back and essentially saying that the fact he was fake doesn't matter because our troops are committing war crimes despite the LACK of evidence to back up this assertion as you can see in the THREAD titled, "Does anyone doubt that certain G.I.'s are committing war crimes?" Yes, "Fake but Accurate" seems to be the motto of the DUmmies. So let us now watch the latest rantings from the "Reality Based Community" in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, noting that MacBeth will soon have lots of time to brush up on his Shakespeare from a jail cell, is in the [brackets]:
Does anyone doubt that certain G.I.'s are committing war crimes?
[Not in DUmmieland where actual facts are considered to be quite beside the point.]
There's been an uproar over a supposedly hoaxed video of a G.I. admitting to mass murder of innocents, but does anyone actually doubt that certain of our soldiers are indeed mad dog killers? No, I'm not saying they all are, but many are. We've seen the evidence over and over. But the number one group of war criminals is of course the neo cons, the ones who tricked the soldiers into thinking the Iraqis are the ones who attacked us, and that they are mere cockroaches to be smashed asunder. It's not the soldiers who should be punished, it's the commanders in chief.
[Despite an utter LACK of evidence, let's just make politically motivated War Crimes accusations.]
No. Jack Murtha has confirmed they are committing war crimes. Murtha wouldn't ever lie about something like that.
[Oh no. Jack Murtha would NEVER fib despite having NO EVIDENCE to back up his charges.]
careful... We aren't supposed to question the ersatz hero worship of the troops. Even many at DU fall in line and don't dare question this. This war mentality isn't likely to change anytime soon. It has been carefully instigated by the military industrial complex after their failure in Vietnam. With their pawns in the media they have cultivated an unquestioning mantra of "support the troops".
[careful... We aren't supposed to back up our wild claims with FACTS.]
Remember, the truthiness of his story is more important then the details and the preponderance of evidence that he made them up!
[Thanx for PERFECTLY expressing the DUmmie attitude of Fake but Accurate.]
a war suggests an equal opportunity type of thing. this was a rape and pillage occupation contrary to international law against a weakened country
[WHO was raped? WHAT was pillaged and by WHOM? Sorry for asking these irritating questions.]
It is an illegal war. Every soldier fighting it is committing a crime. I said the guilt for that crime falls to the moral ledger of the Bush Regime, who launched an aggressive "pre-emptive" war in much the same manner Hitler did when he marched in to Poland.
[Since the DUmmies are UNABLE to find actual FACTS to back up their War Crimes charges they redefine War Crimes to mean our entry into Iraq. When the FACTS don't match the charge then just CRIMINALIZE policy decisions.]
Americans can be extremely Barbaric. I am a witness to that fact
[And you are now witness to the fact that you are being barbarically roasted alive for all to see on the DUmmie FUnnies.]
My husband served over there for more than a year and he never participated in nor witnessed a war crime.
[PLEASE!!! STOP with the FACTS!!!]
It's happening everyday. They kill without question or without reason. They walk around with their finger on the trigger ready to shoot.
[Is that you, Jessie MacBeth?]
I'm sick of people defending the ordinary GI. No one forced them to join the army. They volunteered to go off and kill brown people in the desert.
[Testify to this "fact" before congress and someday, you too, might become a U.S. Senator and run for President.]
It is evident that the US miltary is just as ugly and as capable of evil acts as any other army in history.
[This sounds like Jack Murtha's campaign speech.]
I believe there are a lot of rapes we dont hear about. and i dont give a f*ck what kind of stress your in, rape is inexcusable and were never hearing a peep about it.
[Possibly because it ISN'T happening?]
I'm not criticizing any of the comments here. And I agree completely with the above statement. Our belief in that statement is, only one example, where we differ with the Socialist Left. We see the good, and what has been accomplished since 911. All they see is bad, because it fits with their image of their position in life. That being America's fault (in their eyes), it becomes easy for them to assign crimes to America during wartime, rightly or wrongly.
Yes, those crimes can, and sometimes do, happen. But that doesn't make America per se at fault; only those people who committed or condoned those crimes.
I have seen the evidence NEVER AND NEVER. What I HAVE seen "over and over" is you DUmmies laying out your outrageous presuppositions, saying "there's all this evidence," but YOU NEVER DOCUMENT THE EVIDENCE.
Maybe. t r u t h i n e s s o u t . o r g .will publish it.
Oh, for a return to the days of those great humanitarians, Saddam Hussein & Sons!
THOSE WERE UDAY'S
Tune: "Those Were the Days"
Boy, the pranks Qusay would play!
Loved to gas the Kurds away.
But those rapes that wedding day--
Those were Uday's.
And you didn't dare complain
Or you'd gain a world of pain.
Mister, we could use a reign
Like that of Saddam Hussein.
Didn't need no polls to tell
Who would rule this living hell.
Gee, our old Iraq ran swell--
Those were the days!
And the fact that we DON'T hear about it is PROOF that it's happening! < /DUmmie logic>
Conspiracy Theorist Rule #1: The total lack of evidence to support the conspiracy theory is evidence in and of itself that a cover-up exists.
Corollary: Being a conspiracy theorist means never having to admit that you're wrong.
Corollary: Being a conspiracy theorist means never having to admit that you're wrong.
Right! There is nothing falsifiable about those theories. They are always True. I hate them even, or maybe especially, when Conservatives buy into them..
As somebody already noted, what does it say about the DUmmies if they really believe that the United States has been taken over by an evil fascist regime, but don't do jack about it except bitch to each other on the Internet?
I have NO idea where the DUmmies get this notion that the "mainstream" media is in a "Support the Troops" mode.
In fact, excuse me, I get another impression.
I get so ticked off about this that I make it a point to thank everyone in uniform that I encounter--and here in Nebraska, we got plenty of "brown" people in uniform (usually Navy, for some reason, with a fair smattering of Marines)--not only thank them for all that they are doing for me, but also for what they have done for the Iraqis.
Anyone in uniform, even if a broad-bottomed desk-sitting bureaucrat at the Pentagon, is ten times the man I am--and two thousand times the man any DUmmie is.
I hereby declare that living in mommy's basement is in violation of International Law.
"Why is it when I see a DUmmie Funnies posted, the first thing I do is scroll to the bottom to see if I can get in the top ten, then scroll back up and read the article?"
Because you are a Dummie Funnie Junkie Nutbag just like the rest of us.
Well, think like a DUmmie. Whenever the local TV affiliates let hometown soldiers say "Merry Christmas" to their families during the holidays, their blood boils.

10. Unfortunately, the killers are always able to justify themselves.

No we don't. They believed a liar. They've been screaming since the war began that this is an everyday occurance. It isn't. Pointing out the truth is NEVER a bad thing where DUmmies are concerned.
Because you are a follower.
I wasn't refering to the DU ramblings about MacBeth. I'm saying there is another story out there, and before we go off the deep end on the issue of military crimes, we should be aware there is another situation developing. THAT'S ALL!!!
I never said this was an everyday occurance. I never implied the DU'ers were right. I'm merely pointing out another developing story.
We don't. Even if this story that you posted is true, it is not the norm as the DUmmies portray. Whether we comment or not they'll scream "tip of the iceberg"! It makes no difference. Meanwhile, we laugh at them for believing every liar that comes along from Murtha to MacBeth to the GI Joe doll they were sure was being held captive.
