It's funny you mention that, considering ole Bob's speeches more closely resemble the letter that Lincoln sent to those troops after Fredericksburg. It reminds me of the scene from Gods and Generals after it was read, informing the men who had just fought that their casualties had been minimal. An Irish soldier then turns to the guy next to him and says "minimal compared to what? Napoleon at Waterloo?"
Speaking of the anti-war protestors, have you paid any attention to the types of arguements they give?
Let see... Bush is a "ultranationalist tyrannical" dictator who is an "illegitmate leader" and "war criminal" who's been "waging an unprovoked attack on a soviegn nation", trying to "target woman and children", and "overthrow the consitution.". Oh, and let's not forget he's "suspending civil liberties", by having Ashcroft "suspend Haebus Corpus" and "jailing and opressing innocent people" and "destroying freedom of speech" (critizing anti-war protests being an effort to "destroy" their freedom, according to protestors).
Oh, and let's not forget the "real" reasons for the war. Bush "claims" about freeing the Iraqi people from slavery, but we all Bush is the one who has a "facsist regime" and therefore the "true" motiviation is because a bunch of "greedy corporations and big buisness" are "imperialists" who want to "occupy" Iraq and "destroy their way of life and ancient traditions" so they can "plunder their natural resources and get big money from war profits".
Also, Saddam has done nothing wrong. It's "yankee propagnda" All those reports of torture of the Kurds and other minorities were made up by the "tyrant" Bush.
Hmmmm....seems I've heard this before somewhere.
Would Shuckmaster agree with Mexico, France, and other America-haters that Bush is a blood-thristy maniac leadering an evil "yankee war", or would he agree with George W. that we should proudly cheer on the U.S. troops on the U.S.S. Abraham Lincoln who liberated Iraq?
Shucky is about as pro-America as you are a "Republican capitalist".
