Some Democrats, breaking ranks from their leadership, today said the death of terrorist leader Abu Musab Zarqawi in Iraq was a stunt to divert attention from an unpopular and hopeless war.

"This is just to cover Bush's [rear] so he doesn't have to answer" for Iraqi civilians being killed by the U.S. military and his own sagging poll numbers, said Rep. Pete Stark, California Democrat. "Iraq is still a mess -- get out."

"Somebody check to see if Cindy Sheehan had her arm up his butt to make his lips move."

I checked and he had his own head up his butt blowing hot air in it.

This is one day I want to make a post. I've been very busy the past few months and haven't been able to Freep that much. Today is a great day. At first I felt bad about celebrating another humans death but Zarqawi's death is a great thing for humanity. I have never been able to view the actual video of Nick Berg's murder. I tried once but closed my eyes and just heard the whale that came from Mr. Berg as he was slowly murdered. I have never felt such a dark fear as I did hearing that sound. I truly realized then what evil was. Today when I heard Zarqawi was destroyed I felt an elation and thanked God for letting him be killed and to tell you all I'm not a very religious person. Will his killing stop the insurgency? Will it bring in end to the war on Islamic Fascist's? Time will only tell. All I know is that evil, dark, beast, Zarqawi will never ever do what he did to Nick Berg to anyone ever again. Tonight I make a toast to all people who stand up against evil and people like Zarqawi. I also celebrate the death of a dark entity that will no longer walk this Earth! God Bless all those in the world who continue the struggle today..... Freedom.

Well, pleezd to meetcha.

But I was merely referring to the fact that you beat my exact thought by 235 posts.

No. Not that I know of. But I'm glad they've shown their hand.

Democrats call Zarqawi killing a stunt

The Democrat response is the stunt. They'll do anything to stunt America.

"Zarqawi will never ever do what he did to Nick Berg to anyone ever again."

Have you listened to Nick Berg's father today? He is one sicko man. He didn't want Zarqawi killed, he wanted to be able to sit face to face and understand where he was coming from.

Great stuff. Start fleshing out that script for a conservative comedy sketch show.

That's a great post, Rip. I'm sure a lot of people are overjoyed that a dark personality like Zarqawi's has been removed from the Earth. The death of evil is something to celebrate.

She was pretty hot way back then, pity how she turned out.

I think the "kook wing" is more like the whole party.

It has always been thus. In every war we have fought we have had to kill a lot of the enemy to divert attention from the hopelessness and inevitability of losing. It works too. Kill enough and sooner or later everyone thinks you are winning.

Amazing how Bush can just snap his fingers and arrange it, isn't it?

Especially when you consider that according to these same people, Bush has a room temperature IQ.

Who's the chick in the window butt-humping the guy (who's the guy, too?)?

That would be Cindy Sheehan on the back of Rev. Jesse Jackson.

"Democrats call Zarqawi killing a stunt"

A stunt eh?
Like Criss Angel?
"And for our next trick, we'll be making a terrorist... disappear!"

[CFC__VRWC]

Either that, or Stark thinks GWB has had Zarqawi's corpse on ice somewhere to pull out at "just the right moment."

They pulled the same crap right before the 2004 election, when Osama released that tape. The Dims all but said that Karl Rove had him chained up in the White House basement, and turned him loose to make a tape whenever the GOP needed a poll boost.

[Alas Babylon!]

True, but the problem is that few of the American people ever hear such news.

What?!?!? You mean the press won't lead with this story? Not page one on the New York Times? Won't this be Brian Williams' first story on NBC Nightly News? Dang!

I wonder if any Republicans after Hitler's suicide claimed it was a stunt to save Roosevelt's rear...

Oops...FDR was already dead on that date...
