THIS WAR IS NOT WORKING (Arnett Already Writing in The Mirror!!!!)

BUMP

[geedee]

Monsieur Arnett had best stay abroad. I'm old and fat and normally not the violent sort . . . but our warriors are fighting and dying in Iraq and I find his seditious bullshit quite troubling.

I'm not sure I could control myself if I were to meet this jackass face to face. I pray with all my heart that other Americans have more self-control.

God help me, after many, many years on this Earth, I've learned to hate. I'm ashamed, but there it is. War, in my case, is not conducive to forgiveness.

Re: "Sir, we had to destroy the town to save it."

As a Vietnam Vet
I'd love to save Peter.

He's a know-it-all windbag on a mission to discredit the U.S. war effort.

Well, the cat is out of the bag. This essay says it all.

Time for a canonization, dear brethren: St. Peter Arnett, Turncoat and Martyr. Feast Day: March 31 (the day sensible heads prevailed and gave him the pink slip). The British media elite can keep him.

[wildbill]

didn't he say something like "My reports from Iraq are helping the anti-war effort." I don't have the time or interest in finding the exact quote, but he made it clear that he was pursuing an agenda and was proud of it.

Maybe Peter is on a deep cover CIA mission. What a great cover! Who would suspect a delusional, egomaniacal, useful idiot of being a CIA agent. His reports may contain coded messages!

I believe his mission is to get an interview with Saddam so the US can track him and finish him off. Unfortunately for Peter, it's a suicide mission.

[Howlin]

I doubt that!

Which reminds me: Happy April Fools' Day!

Hmmmm...I don't want to doubt you, but I can't find your original post.

I assume that the 6:03 PM is Eastern Time (which would make it three minutes ahead of my post). When I look through your forum posts for 3/30, it jumps right from this one (3:01 PM PST) to this one (6:34 PM PST).

Baghdad Pete! Now I think that one will stick! Very creative!

Hmmm. Well, isn't that conveeeeenient?

Just kidding.

[Howlin]

It is mighty convenient, isn't it?

[Atticus]

P.s. Your network also fired you because you could not deliver another admiring interview with Sadam because he's DEAD - just like your disgraceful career.

It isn't really a big deal but I did not post much yesterday after lunch and when I came back on that was the first thread I posted on as Peter had me boiling..

Mister Magoo started the thread I think, and I posted to a freeper named Keith if that helps.

Here is the only things I have from my comments page.
