I REFUSE
Vanity | 7/2/02 | Copperhead61

Posted on 07/02/2002 11:31:30 AM PDT by Copperhead61

Emil Zola wrote an article called I Accuse to protest the unjust conviction and imprisonment of Capt Alfred Dreyfus on Devil's Island. It worked, Dreyfus was not only exonerated but returned to France a hero. I've decided to borrow the idea, tweak it a bit and use it to express without apology my thoughts, opinions and feelings about current events.Its a little something I've called I REFUSE. I invite my fellow Freepers to join in with their own refusisms.

I REFUSE TO:

apologise for wishing that any mideast nation that knowingly continues to aid and abet terrorists winds up a glass parking lot.

apologise for thinking Hillary Clinton, Maxine Waters and Carol Mosley Braun should be forced to wear burkhas.

apologise for hoping "Johnny Jihad" Lindh winds up someone's prison bitch.

to apologise for hoping OBL is still alive so America can bring him to trial and show him to be what he truly is : a yellow bellied, hyporitical, egomaniacl waste of oxygen.

apologise for believing that the United States of America is the greatest country on the planet.

Okay people the balls in your court. Refuse away!

I refuse to allow some liberal minded, anti-governmental, district court of appeals to keep me from honoring my country and my God at the same time.

I refuse to:
appologize for being suspicious of every damn person I see - especially those with dark skin, dark hair and such a heavy accent that I can't understand a damn word they say.

If God didn't want us to eat animals - he wouldn't have made them out of meat.

I take it that you disapprove of the original Zola article, then?
