This whole week was a series of low blows to those of us who value peace, freedom, and justice. Every time I turned on the TV there was another depressing news story of Republicans running amok and it just made me want to puke! It was almost more than I could take.
First of all, over in Iraq this Abu Musab al-Zarqawi guy gets brutally murdered by two 500-pound bombs dropped by a U.S. jet and the conservatives act like they just won the lottery. Where's the respect for human life? Where's the compassion? Where's the love of one's fellow man? Oh sure, al-Zaqawi maybe cut off a few heads and some other stuff, so that gives us a right to drop huge bombs on his head? It shows how desperate the Right is to kill anyone who doesn't believe exactly as they do. Barbarians.
Next, we're hit with even worse news that Karl Rove gets off scot-free in the Valerie Plame case. Here's a guy who may very well be the Devil himself, and he gets a free pass for horrendous crimes while some dumb Jordanian camel jockey gets bombs the size of Volkswagons dropped on his head! What's wrong with this picture? No doubt Halliburton working in conjunction with the GOP Forces Of Evil influenced this case, all but destroying our legal system's credibility and assuring the rest of us dark days to come.
The final blow was G.W. Chimpy McHitler's surprise flight to Baghdad, where he scared the crap out of his new puppet leader, Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. Does anybody NOT know that this Maliki guy is obviously some old Hawaiian drinking buddy W installed? This administration thinks we're all so stupid that we would believe somebody named "Maliki" is Arab just because they stick "al-" before his name? Hey, we didn't go to college for nothing.
Anyway, President Dufus flies into Iraq like he owns the place without even telling Maliki he's coming, just so he could act like a big shot because he blew up al-Zaqawi and knows he can't cut his head off now. No doubt W was just making sure they weren't stealing the ashtrays, and wanted to fill up Air Force One with some cheap gas. The bad news is that he escaped with his life and came back to the U.S. Where's the towel-heads with those shoulder-fired missiles at the end of the runway when you need them?
The final straw this week was the release of Ann Coulter's new book and her inevitable disgusting presence on every news program on TV, and not just Fox. She is now officially attacking every living thing on earth and needs to be destroyed, period. The tragic thing is that Al-Zarqawi would have been perfect for this, if the Air Force hadn't liquefied his internal organs.
It goes without saying this week was a disaster.
Is Peace Moonbeam really a liberal, or is she a conservative doing a clever caricature? The "al-Maliki" comments come off as extremely sarcastic.
Great stuff.
Funny stuff. Love it!
It's satire.
LOL!
"Is Peace Moonbeam really a liberal, or is she a conservative doing a clever caricature?"
Don't know what the author's politcs are, but this *is* satire.
DARN! And me being fresh out of sympathy.
Amazing that that even needs to be said.
This is great stuff, but...I reiterate...for satire to be truly effective, it must be somehow distinguishable from reality.
The scary thing is...there ARE people who WOULD write this in all seriousness!
It's satire.........very good satire........
It's all satire. She says right on her profile that she's 50, married and strongly conservative.
One thing for sure, it doesn't reside with Peace Moonbeam and her pro-abortion friends.
"This whole week was a series of low blows to those of us who value peace, freedom, and justice."
Are you sure it's not "was a series of peace to those of us who value low blows" ( In memory of BLOWJOBBILLY)
Sheez. I only read the first paragraph. Now I see. Scrappleface quality.
I think I am going to puke. These people are seriously touched.
It's GOOD satire. Almost good enough to not be recognizable as such, except she sometimes gets a little too ham-handed and gives the game away.
The best satire is that which, when played at the target, gets him agreeing with your patently ridiculous material.
