Dumb show (UK's Guardian Cries Out for Bush Assassination)

The Guardian (UK) ^ | 10/23/04 | Charlie Brooker

[GeorgeBerryman]

From the article by Guardian columnist Charlie Brooker:

"On November 2, the entire civilised world will be praying, praying Bush loses. And Sod's law dictates he'll probably win, thereby disproving the existence of God once and for all. The world will endure four more years of idiocy, arrogance and unwarranted bloodshed, with no benevolent deity to watch over and save us. John Wilkes Booth, Lee Harvey Oswald, John Hinckley Jr - where are you now that we need you?"

But if you're referring to the FBI, CIA or any other ..... then, yeah, I HOPE SO !!!

[ladyinred]

What an evil piece of British dirt.

[xenawp]

Is there an e-mail address for the rag that this nincompoop writes for? It's time to do some e-freepin'!

[Minus_The_Bear]

These calls for assignation have jumped the pond to our own shores... the creeps over at MetaFilter are AGREEING with the column and saying that it should be done! Take action and report this to the FBI!

This is no joking matter! Just look at the two planes that buzzed the President today or the countless acts of violence by Dems already! If Bush wins there WILL be violence and we need hold them responsible.

Brooker's kind has no regard for the generations that died to allow him to express his idiotic mentality.

Never mind the fanatics that want to kill, kill, kill in the name of their so-called god. Let them be, they say. How dare the Americans decide that we should be defended, they say. How dare the American soldier die for him, they say.

Well, Mr. Brooker, President Bush prays for the ignorant, too. How dare he, you would nonetheless wonder.

Brooker acts like a hardcore Democrat...who could use a slap upside the head with a pre-politically correct history book.

My letter to Charlie: Charlie you don't belong among the great citizens of Great Britain whom we are proud to be allied with in this war against terrorism. You need to leave your unappreciated freedoms behind and join the traitorous, threatening, hate-spewing fools that you now embrace. Your cowardice and ignorance have spread a stench around the globe that belongs among the evil you much prefer. Nevertheless, may you never experience the hate that terrorism would love to slice into your body, even if it would give you the understanding you so desperately need. Consider your words much more carefully in the mean time while many more decent men and women continue to defend you. Peace.

Mine was a bit shorter: "Watch your back."

[Xcoastie]

That's effective.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Is MetaFilter normally that vile? I've never heard of it and from what I've read, it's right down there with DU.

[timbuck2]

Xcoastie,
I think it probably is since trying to reason with a blood thirsty leftist is a little like hoping for a Marxist to find God.

[The Wizard]

a real shame they couldn't burn this paper to the ground

[Levante]

"Can we set him up with a visit with Jack Ruby?"

"I was thinking more along the lines of Charles Manson and his freaky friends..."

Or a small group of special operators with MP5s...=)

[Mad Dawgg]

"They always want us to stay out of Euro Politics, what a load of malarky, this sets me to steaming the rest of the day."

OK, this is the last straw!

I say we load a container ship full of Gas-guzzling SUVs and cruise on over to England. We off load, off road, roll into London and pickup Lady Thatcher and storm Parliament. We toss out the euroweenies and let Maggie clean house!

Who is with me?

[PowerPro]

Apparently the entire civilised world is also advocating assassinating the President of the United States.

[Eastbound]

Missed that, O.C. Would have like to see Hannity's face. I think Coulter's words have merit. As you know, she got hit with a couple of pies the other day. With all the vandalism of the Republican Campaign HQ's going on around the country and votescam and voter intimidation already heating up, it might be wise to have more than just baseball bats after the election.

I predicted that the old time dems were going to leave the party in droves when they find out their party has been taken over by the radical socialists. Can't tell them. They'll just have to find out by themselves. I tried to explain things to an older friend of mine today (a dem), in a very gentle way, and she left the house really upset.

Thanks for the note. --

[ We definately have the worst form of government ever devised by man, except for all the rest. ]

Sounds like you're confusing the U.S. with a democracy.. The U.S. is NOT a democracy. Its a Constitutional Republic which is NOT a democracy.. Not a democratic republic either that is something else again but a Consitutional Republic.. exactly and specifically.. Democracy sucks in every way, at every time, anywhere comparativly. Because its MOB RULE your Barny Fifeness.. There are 3 words not found anywhere in the U.S. Constitution....

1) democracy...
2) democratic
3) and democrat....

Its by design omitting those words its not an accident.. Wanta know WHY?... because democracy sucks.. thats why.. The founders rejected a democracy as our form of gov't exactly and specifically because its MOB RULE.. Democrats have been working overtime to morph the U.S. into one and they have almost succeeded too.. I call out to all on this forum to SPIT everytime they hear the word democracy.. And if Bush uses the word positivly spit on him too, he should KNOW BETTER. Course goin to school at Harvard can make one ignert.. Nah! spit on him anyway.. And the democrats.!. well, rock them just because. Rock them all the way down the street and cuss them too.. their icehole, bastiches every one... Yeah even Zell Miller... the moron should've left that party long long ago.. I got got my good eye on ol' Zell Miller... < / rim shot >

[Khurkris]

Well said. Thanks for adding some balance.

[O.C. - Old Cracker]

Their world (the Democrats) is crashing down around their ears and it is scaring them to death.
