"More recently, Orwell pointed out to us the dangers of Newspeak."
Maggy, you really do need to get out more! Orwell wrote "1984" in 1948!

We have almost ceased to notice when suicide bombers are described as "cowards" Gee, what a surprise. The freak is anti-Israel as well.

y to remember that the best response to these kinds of dimwits is to ignore them.The lady has elicited little rant in return so far (up to #21) She is not worth slapping or getting one's blood pressure up to redline but she is worth a condescending chuckle or two.

What a drabble, or is it a dribble?
To: Leisler
But what struck home hardest was the subsequent image, of a row of American warplanes, with grinning cartoon faces painted on their noses. Cartoon faces, with big sharp teeth. (ROTFLOL) It is grotesque. It is hideous. This great and powerful nation bombs foreign cities and the people in those cities from Disneyland cartoon planes out of comic strips. This is simply not possible. And yet, there they were.
Priceless comedy! It just doesn't get any better than this!

Wonder what she thinks of this sort of thing . . .

She'd probably throw a Fesbian Leminist Fit and choke on her own bile.
Myself, I like to see the young folks have a good time, and if pretty ladies on the nose make the pilots happy, good on 'em!
. . . whew, she's ugly, isn't she?

If it wasn't for America she'd be writting in German now.
I suggest that she put some ice on that.

It has made me much, much more ill than I had expected. Evidently not enough. You still seem to be breathing.

Incredible how far the British have fallen when drivel like this can get published. Gents, down the road when undoubtedly we will have to go in somewhere else, we may well be going it alone. Unless we put the military of the Pols and Czechs on an English crash course that is.
To: Leisler
I hate feeling this hatred.No you don't...you THRIVE on it.

We are accustomed to these sobriquets; to phrases such as "collateral damage" and "friendly fire" and "pre-emptive strikes". But, apparently, the terms "dictatorship", "torture", "political prisoners", "corruption", et al don't phase her at all.
Silly woman.

This "woman" needs a good freeping (among other things). Anyone have her email, tele, or address?
To: Leisler
Yet another Margaret who hates America. Margaret Attwood,
Canadian novelist, wrote a widely circulated piece (I received it from my UltraLib Sister-in-Law AND her daughter)
and I initially thought this was a followup by Attwood.
Alas, there is another hysterical Margaret out there who thinks there are "Two Americas", and needs to learn how to count.
----Well, this piece is not even worth responding to: not only are ALL her facts wrong, but she stupidly cites, of all people, George Orwell, who knew a few things about tyranny, and who I have no doubt would be 100% behind this war and this Administration.
To: razorbak
Other than fiction, one of the bedrock requirements for Leftist credentials is to know nothing about anything, yet comment authoritatively about everything.
Your post, while being factual true would earn you the title of a bore at one of their group mental-grope sessions.
I myself thank you and you are what makes FR so great. One, or more of us, knows more than the lefties could ever know about any subject. Hence, their dislike for forums like this and talk radio.

To: Leisler
I detest American imperialism, American infantilism, and American triumphalism about victories it didn't even winThe writer must be an expert on infantilism as this is the most infantile piece of crap I have read in some time. Lets just let people write about things they can't understand and publish it.
When people with the spines of MS Drabble rule, they don't rule long and what comes after rule are the Pol Pots and the other criminal rulers. Suffering then becomes manifest.
War is ugly. War is supposed to be ugly. War is sometimes nessessary so as MS Drabble dosen't have to cringe in a damp cell somewhere.
Oh, and Viet Nam, we will eventually have some sort of hand in freeing that country, too. Americans are winners by providence and cannot coexist with that other America.
So there!

(Is this a great country or what?)
To: Leisler
My anti-Americanism has become almost uncontrollable. It has possessed me, like a disease. It rises up in my throat like acid reflux, that fashionable American sickness. I now loathe the United States and what it has done to Iraq and the rest of the helpless world. I can hardly bear to see the faces of Bush and Rumsfeld, or to watch their posturing body language, or to hear their self-satisfied and incoherent platitudes. The liberal press here has done its best to make them appear ridiculous, but these two men are not funny.
As disgusting as I think this woman is, you have to admit, she is honest. She also speaks for most of the libs in this country.
Our libs beat around the bush ( no pun intended, well maybe a little). "The carrier stunt was too expensive", "Where are the WMD's", " The wonderful museum was looted",etc.
What the libs want to say is exactly what this woman expressed.
"I loathe America"

"If it wasn't for big mean Americans with cartoon characters painted on their tanks and bombers, she would be speaking German today, and wearing a swastika on her uniform." That's probably why she's pissed.
