PHONY IRAQI ABUSE OUTRAGE SYNDROME
Regularguys.com ^ | 05/05/04 | Larry Wachs

WHEN GOOD NEWS COMES OUT BAD

Happy Cinco de Drinko everybody!

There's is so much good news in the paper lately. Only problem is it's presented as bad.

The latest trick of the left, which proved incredibly effective last decade in helping Rodney King become a WMD, is to work up a lot of phony outrage at Iraqi prisoners being tortured and abused by our military.

"Iraqi Prisoner Urinated On!" And the problem is..? It's the least we can do, really. OK, you're in the Twin Towers on 9/11/01. What would you choose? Someone flying a packed airliner into your head or getting peed upon in the lobby? Thought so. To the anti-US news reporters the only American allowed to pee on others is R Kelly. The only outrageous thing to me is that the soldiers did not shout, "That's for Tillman and Pearl" while they were emptying their bladders on the kindly shepherds.

Yes, I know. Even Rumsfeld and Bush are outraged. What do you expect them to say? "Well, the White House believes that pissing on a guy has it's merits?" Don't they already have their hands full trying to explain to the mentally disabled of the print media the basic concepts of right vs. wrong and self-defense?

It's sad that the news media treats Michael Jackson better than our military. And it's sad that some people are eager to prosecute any of our military as war criminals before Saddam Hussein answers to his evil.

Abuse is necessary for the survival of a free state. These "prisoners" have another name. Enemy combatants. We are fighting dirty people who see Geneva Conventional warfare as old school. "Yo my sand nigga. That's a bunch of Babylonia. Knowwhatitisthatiamsayingtoyoumyfriend?"

As I said last year on the air to much hootery and derision, the eggshells upon which President Bush must walk to fight this war will continue to cause needless death. Lob a nuke and see what happens. It worked for the Japs. They sure as hell calmed down and concentrated on electronics and sushi.

Everytime we conquer a land everyone wins.When we fought Germany did anyone think it would yield some of the kinkiest porn America has ever seen? Tons of Jews driving Mercedes?

We whipped Russia's ass, everybody loves vodka now...more so than Raymond. It's even flavored for the 'tweens.

Britain and Canada...America's twin sons. We steal all their comedians and TV shows and make them better..Tom Green being the exception.

The South is in much better shape than the North these days. NASCAR is huge everywhere. We even succeed when we kick our own ass! That's how great this country is.

So before we weaken ourselves even further in the eyes of the Arab world by holding congressional hearings on the wedgie, let's make examples of the soldiers who have bravely farted in the face of evil by giving them medals that they can bring back home so John Kerry can toss them over a fence.

TOMORROW: MORE GOOD NEWS DISGUISED AS BAD

I thought I recognized you in that picture.
Well, look who joined in.
And where are you Texass? Holding the camera so you're unseen?
Aren't you not the funny one Texass! Been in any good bar fights lately?
I saw the mutual admiration party the two of you had going on and was wondering how long it would take before this would happen. Wipe your noses off boys, you've got some brown stuff on 'em. It's unbecoming.

Hey, phil, how many different screen names do you have?
I've had just this one. Can you say the same thing?

As to this whole "abuse" thing and all of this "emotion" you and others appear to be showing, I'm still awaiting the pictures yet to be seen. According to Rumsfeld today, all of the facts aren't out. All of the pics aren't out either. You stated You do not have all the facts. Well, it would seem that you don't have all of the facts either, yet you have the nerve to tell others that they don't have all of the facts and you want it to appear as if you do.
When I see pics of someone actually being beaten then I'll be right there saying that such actions are wrong. Until that point in time all I see is mild psychological mind games through humiliation being deployed against our enemy.
So, in the mean time, why don't you little boy toys take your balls and go play on the freeway?

All of this is surmisal until the final investigation findings are released. I tend not to believe any press accounts that are obtained illegally from a Maj Gen. Taguba during an ongoing investigation.

And I assume you duly chastised the poster who likened these actions to a fraternity hell week? No? Well, in any case, the Taguba report has been officially released. You may want to peruse it.

How old are you? You sure don't speak like an adult. do you at least try with your OTHER screen names? Well, I guess in your standby ID as Dick Grayson, you didn't, as that one was banned.

"I saw the mutual admiration party the two of you had going on and was wondering how long it would take before this would happen. Wipe your noses off boys, you've got some brown stuff on 'em. It's unbecoming."

So is acting like a spoiled brat on a serious forum, kid.

"When I see pics of someone actually being beaten then I'll be right there saying that such actions are wrong."

Actually, you'll probably then claim the photos are faked. You know, for someone who likes to accuse others of "socialism" or "Clintonism", you have the tactics down pretty well.

Quit posting to me, BOY. You're beneath contempt.

Irrelevant.
You sure don't speak like an adult.
Is there a set manner in which adults speak?
do you at least try with your OTHER screen names?
As I've already told you, I have no other screen names. I've never had any other screen name at FR than the one I'm currently using. Besides, my writing style is pretty unique and I would be spotted in an instant, so there is no logical reason to use another name.
Since you chose to bring the Admin Moderator into this, AM would you please tell this person whether or not I've ever had any other screen name. Seems a pretty shallow thing to accuse another person of having another screen name after they've been told that you've only had one.

So is acting like a spoiled brat on a serious forum, kid.
You must've picked that up from Texasforever. He used to do the same thing trying to rile me up. It never worked for him either. It made him look foolish then and it's making you look foolish now.

Ah yes, when all else fails try presumption.
You know, for someone who likes to accuse others of "socialism" or "Clintonism", you have the tactics down pretty well.
You won't find very many posts of mine where I tell others that we all will have to "share the shame" for the actions of others.
Quit posting to me, BOY. You're beneath contempt.
BOY? I'm not black and this isn't the 1800s.

Listen, Kid, I've about had it with you. You're acting like a petulant child, following me from thread to thread, and whining like a little girl.

However, what to mw is WORST about you is that you apparently have absolutely no sense of morals or honor. IF you had been in the Service, you'd know exactly why these abuses affect us all, and that no amount of claiming otherwise changes that. EVERY other serviceman around here seems to understand this; except of course YOU, Mr. Induhvidualist.

As if that's not bad enough, you also go about trying to EXCUSE and DEFEND the pigs who brought shame and disgrace to us. Like I said...grow up, and grow a sense of right and wrong.

I'm done with this silly flame war you seem to want to keep going. You were trolling for a fight, and mistakenly I engaged you. I should've known better than to attempt a Discussion With ANYONE who cannot immediately see the disgusting evil in all this.

I asked you twice, now I'm telling you...don't post to me again. You are not mature or even decent enough to talk about these things.

'sides, we all know that the enemy knows by now that all they have to do is get the liberals' panties in a bind with their cry-baby crap, and they WILL BE SET FREE!

Most unfortunately, Rumsfeld is supporting commpensation for the pervs!

Perhaps if we paid our troops like we pay the gods, they would act better.

Listen, Bluster, I've about had it with you too. You're acting as if you know it all when you don't and whining like a titty baby when somebody calls you on something you've got wrong. Your "share the blame" attitude IS a socialist attitude. Deal with it!
Blah, blah, blah...grandstanding...blah, blah, blah...more grandstanding...
Yeah, yeah, yeah, whatever.
You were trolling for a fight, and mistakenly I engaged you.
And now the last refuge...presumption.
I asked you twice, now I'm telling you...don't post to me again.
Until I'm told not to by the owner of this site, or his designated subordinate, I'll post or not post to whomever I choose.

And you are still doubly wrong for accusing me of having more than one screen name. Funny how you haven't resorted to that today. You must've checked into it and found out that I was right.

"Buttkisser."

I know you are, but what am I????

Now that YOU'RE here, we can now take the level of debate down to grade school.

Don't you have homework to do?

Nah. Why don't you post another "Freepers whose butt I want to kiss" thread?

"Baloney. I am a soldier who risked his life in Iraq to do the right thing and I am outraged. People with me died and lost limbs so that these sickos could play gang-bang? If reality matches appearances, the responsible parties should be tried at court martial and punished. There is plenty of evidence to warrant a thorough investigation. The truth is the truth, and we should never be afraid to face it. The thousands of men and women who are serving honorably demand it. You're not defending me or any other soldier when you defend lawlessness."

Finally, a dose of sanity of this thread.

If you're talking about the "favorite FReepers" thread (which got over a thousand posts), you must be mistaken. I never identified myself with YOU.

That's fine, because I have never wanted to indentify myfelf with a buttkisser. But I did notice that your "buddies" have the reputation of the biggest jerks on FreeRepublic. That was the last I needed to know.
