PHONY IRAQI ABUSE OUTRAGE SYNDROME

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

The media exhibits the four pillars of present day public discourse: hysteria, histrionics, decadence and degeneration. Unfortunately such media methods sells billions in soap. Therefore, the media will not control themselves.

You know, HACK, I really enjoy the fact that I annoy you so much that you follow me around, biting at my heels like a dog.

It just makes my day.

Gee, HACK, with a vocabulary like yours, I don't know how to respond.

I guess you don't like posting guidelines too much, along with people who actually THINK.

I guess you also don't like it when someone is proud of their service. You must have hated yours, if indeed you served.

Yes, you are proud of your service in the same way John Kerry is, and remind people as much as he does. Being proud of service is fine. Trying to make a firewall of it is a completely different issue. Perhaps you would like to flag some people at this point to help you out.

You mean like you did a few minutes ago, when you used the "c" word?

Your substitutes for intelligent discourse are quite interesting. Vulgar, but interesting.

I mention my service to show that, on some issues, I know what I'm talking about. I mention other bona fides I have when the circumstances warrant. I'm also proud of it.

I guess that grates on you. Gee, I don't know how I'll be able to sleep knowing that.

Worth repeating.
