[eureka!]

AM-Thanks for the indulgence. Here's my contribution to this thread, from DU. In regards to the picture of a smiling Iraqi child giving a thumbs up sign, a DU Einstein unbunched his panties long enough to post this:

I'm hardly an expert on Iraqi culture but I do know that in a country near Iraq-isreal-a thumbs up is the equivelent of giving somebody the finger. I'm not saying whether the story is accurate or not but...gestures don't always mean the same in every country. maybe we should find soembody from Iraq who can tell us what thumbs up means in Iraq. "

Amazing. Almost sad, really.....

I don't know about "thumbs up" in Iraq, but I have a pretty good idea where this DUmper's thumb is up.

You missed this jewel:

This is shaping up to be a QUAGMIRE!"

They are impaling themselves on their keyboards, without a doubt.

That post shows the desperation at which these lunatics will go to find any negative aspect they can. I agree, it really is sad to know that there are people in this country that are that self-deluded.
