It's about time the US got over 9/11

She sounds a rotten brat, doesn't she?

And yes, any American agression is SOLELY a result of and aimed at petty, vicious, insane evil humans that use BRUTAL VIOLENCE to harm innocent, vulnerable or helpless people.

Anyone who can't see that from our actions these last many years are just a waste of oxygen...

"If you disagree with this web site"

OH, NO...I LIKE the Website...

And I am NOT so prone to vapid, sweeping GENERALITIES as some may be here.

Do you know anyone like THAT?

No worries about being a cheerleader...they'll let you on the debate team...next time..."AFFIRMATIVE DISCRIMINATION", you know....?

[weegee]

Shoe bombers, homosexual snipers, shootings at an Israeli airline counter at LAX, and "zit cream" using teen pilots and somehow we are blowing this all out of proportion to assume that there are bad guys out to get us. And just a coincidence that nightclub blew up containing Australian tourists.

Not every calamity is connected to Middle Eastern terrorists but she's burying her head in the sand if she thinks it couldn't happen to her. That was the world's condemndation of America on 9.11. "You thought it couldn't happen here".

[weegee]

The Middle Easterners are still wailing about the Crusades.

[Jumper]

I'll write him the same drival 18-months after the end of Islamic hostilities against London; that should be about 50,000 people from now if this war on terrorism actually takes ten years to conclude, and we actually lose city populations to WMD attacks. Of course, there is a bright side to all this if in fact inevitable, voters are democrat in cities where the high-value targets for WMD exist and this will change the electoral counts in National Elections for the remainder of our lifetimes, in which case this writer will be dead anyway.

[Tamzee]

I like your points :-)

But she's not worried, if anything ever did hurt her she can just fall back on the old reliable blaming the government for not "connecting the dots"...

[weegee]

Shouldn't that be there are 1 type of people?

Actually there are 3 types of people. Those who can count and those who can't.

[Tamzee]

I always liked the counting saying, too :-)

[woofie]

Actually there are 3 types of people. Those who can count and those who can't.

What about all us other smart people? Make that 5 types

[Greenpees]

Another journalist who thinks she could never be Daniel Pearl, because she can "connect" with the aggressor's "inner child"

[weegee]

Actually it's the nekkid hippie protestors who are indecent Americans opposed to war against Saddam Hussein.

[Windsong]

"...Americans and Israelis"

Isrealis?? Huh?

[weegee]

I've caught the error in my way (I was thinking binary logic, not numerics, when I "translated" the tag line representation). I guess we know which camp I fall in.

[weegee]

Of course, only the protestors are "decent". We are all "anti-peace" don't you know. And we cannot question the patriotism of those who protest with signs denouncing the President as someone who didn't win the election (he did, they need to get over it) and hold anti-capitalist slogans (and even vandalize banks and other institutions in their "peace" protests).

[Republicanus_Tyrannus]

Yup. Those who are staunchly anti-American ("anti-war") are the same goobers who support Arafat & his mob of terrorists. Who support (directly) those demogogues who begin speeches with an appeal to "kill more Jews".

The leftist anti-American filth we're discussing is extremely anti-Semitic. They avidly approve of killing Israelis as much as they approve of killing American service personnel. That's why I mentioned them

[Free ThinkerNY]

Here's a recent photo of Joan Smith. Cute isn't she?

[Tamzee]

Got me too when I first saw it... then it was a eureka-kinda-thing :-)

I have been having a good time reading other folks tag lines since I joined, some really fun ones floating around here!

[weegee]

Well she sure spouts the party line "Gooba gabba gooba gabba, one of us, one of us."

[Tamzee]

Ahhh, someone I can ask...

There is something that has had me really confused, maybe you can explain this to me? Aren't the Jewish voters in America primarily liberal?? I could be absolutely wrong, just basing this on remembering Hilla-reek's Senate run, didn't she court the Jewish vote?

If they are liberal, where do they stand on all the liberal anti-semitism lately?

Thanks for any insight, I'm really confused on this one...

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

I have been having a good time reading other folks tag lines since I joined, some really fun ones floating around here!

I think it would be cool to have a tag line collection page, to read all FReepers' tag lines in one place. They're like the bumper stickers of the Internet.
