War vs. Peace?
There is one collective thought that agrees with Jan
Pettman: "The opposite
of war may not be peace, but justice." (Jan Pettman
(1996). Worlding Women: A Feminist International
Politics. Routledge)
There is another collective thought that believes the
opposite of war is
indeed peace.
The opposite of justice is injustice so it cannot be
the opposite of war.
The opposite of war cannot be peace either since even
the most recent period of international 'cold war' was
actually a sort of global peace but one
fraught with despair and concern and mistrust and
fear.
The opposite of peace is not war. The opposite of
peace would be a lack of
peace, which does not require war to be lacking
thereof.
The opposite of war is likewise the lack of war. Wars
are fought and won and fought and lost but no war has
ever been won by peace. No war has ever been stopped
by peace. A war can only be stopped by the lack of
war. Whether peace comes from that is determined by
the opposite of peace.
Terror.
Peace is defined as: a state of tranquility or quiet:
or: a state or period
of mutual concord between governments. To be 'at
peace' is defined as "in a
state of concord or tranquility".
War is defined as: a state of usually open and
declared armed hostile
conflict between states or nations: or: a period of
such armed conflict. It
cannot be reversed in opposite and become peace.
Terror is defined as: a state of intense fear.
Fear is not tranquil and the state of being in fear is
normally not quiet.
There is no concord between differing viewpoints there
is only discord.
The United States of America was just about the only
country on the planet
prior to the attacks of September 2001 that was
internally content with
believing it was at peace. The U.S.A. was not alone in
that feeling but
everything changed on the 11th of September 2001.
The United States was faced with terror. For the first
time in a very long
time the people of the United States viewed terror as
those two towers and
some included the Pentagon in their thoughts and the
airplane of heroes as
well. Others focused on New York. New York is not home
to most Americans.
Far from home for the Hollywood near elite. And
definitely a long way away
from the French.
Since then, those who are determined to stop a war
have believed war to be
the opposite of peace and they so indeed want peace.
We all do. And we all hate war.
Luckily, most of us (Americans) know the difference
and even though we hate
war we hate death more.
Death means here. Death means personally stopping what
you were doing to no longer do it. Death is what hit
this country.
To stop our death we will indeed pursue those who
covet terror; those who
wish terror on us and those who support terrorists and
those who support
those who support terrorists.
Those supporters of supporters of terrorists are the
ones who need to
rethink their motives.
Ours is plain and simple.
Survival.
War is a tool that can result in peace by first
creating the state of being
'at peace'. After that it is up to the leaders of the
nations to bring
peace, a state of mind, a state of condition without
conflict and
"a state of tranquility or quiet".
There is no such thing right now as "a state of
tranquility or quiet"
anywhere in the world.
Do you feel tranquil and quiet? Have you felt tranquil
and quiet?
War is not the opposite of peace, it is the horrible
thing used to either
destroy peace or make it exist at all.
The United States of America does not destroy peace.
The road to any just victory is paved with individual
battles that may seem
disconnected to the uninformed.
Why Do We Have To
Prove It?
Many months ago The President presented part of the
plan for the war on
terror that included taking up old business first.
Many hints at connections to terror have been
presented but nothing
concrete. Concrete only exists in foundations.
Intelligence gathering is a business of interpreting
available data. It is
not a business of appeasing stupid people.
The topic then was fulfilling the already existing
mandates handed down by
the United Nations.
We are a nation of variety. Unlike other nations where
the culture is an
evolutionary result of like kind staying with like
kind The United States of
America is a blend of cultures and kinds.
From the initial statement of determination to rid the
world (and therefore
the threat to us) of terror, old business became new
opportunity.
After much debate the first act was to seek approval
from congress.
That approval was granted.
Then the debate continued that since the old business
was United Nations
business the United Nations should lend a hand and
enforce its 12 years of
repeated useless resolutions. So resolution 1441 was
passed unanimously by the Security Council.
Then the topic changed.
Since that change countries who have other interests
and goals have managed
to make the courtesy extended to the United Nations a
tool by which to gain
individual power and while doing so cut the only super
power on the planet
down to size. In that fray the topic was changed
from fulfilling existing useless mandates
and resolutions to creating a new resolution which
resulted in inspectors
becoming investigators.
Inspections work when those being inspected cooperate.
But regardless of how much small degree of
'cooperation' has been shown by Iraq nothing has come
close to the full and complete disarmament required by
12 years of useless UN resolutions.
Then we began to prove what the world has observed
from us for many years.
We are a collective stupid people.
Hollywood's big names arose from the ashes of their
totally concocted view
of reality to speak out against war. And well they
should. War is a horrible
thing. But war is not the point.
War is a tool.
War would not be necessary if 12 years of useless
resolutions would have
been enforced by the body responsible for passing
them.
War would not be necessary if Saddam Hussein simply
did what the world told him to do.
Peace is the desire of everyone except those desirous
of killing innocent
people to rid the world of those who disagree with
their religious beliefs.
Actors, who by the very nature of their jobs are
required day in and day out
to live a life that is not real, project a lie in
hopes it will be a believable performance and rake in
the dollars to act like they are being what they are
paid to be: wind up attempting to use their intellect
to jump back into reality but fail to let go of their
illusions.
Sure, there are some among us who are not stupid.
And each of us will declare the other's position to be
stupid.
In actuality our internal squabbling over changed
topics only displays
loudly to the rest of the world that we are not
united.
We are split along political lines. We are split along
religious lines. We
are split along gender lines. We are split along
racial lines. We are split
along any line any opportunist sees available.
We are so split that a member of congress could find
it within his seditious
heart to discuss impeachment of a President who is
acting within the
requirements afforded to him by a bill passed by both
houses of congress
which only disagreed with that politician's political
agenda yet his
political agenda cares not for majority votes.
Splits and disunity will bring down even the strongest
nation.
Political gain is more important to House Judiciary
ranking member John
Conyers (D-Mich.) than logic is.
According to The Drudge Report (often accurate)
Representative Conyers has held a meeting with lawyers
to discuss the removal of The President during a time
of war through impeachment for acting on a mandate
awarded by congress.
Of course, no war has been declared by congress since
no request has been
made to do so. It has not been necessary for decades.
But it should.
Without a declaration of war seditionists like
Representative Conyers can do
what ever they want no matter how it will be received
in other parts of the
world and not be held accountable for their personal
stupidity. With a declaration of war Representative
Conyers can be treated like he
deserves: American 'human shields' likewise.
For Conyers a joint agreement passed by congress is
not relevant.
For Conyers a joint agreement passed by the Security
Council is not
relevant.
Only his political goals are relevant.
Which only makes Representative Conyers disgusting.
So why do we have to continuously prove how stupid we
really are?
Because our form of indirect democracy is despised by
those who desire
direct democracy and the power it would give them at
obviously any price.
Indirect democracy elects leaders who lead in a
republic.
Direct democracy elects lifers who carry out the will
of the 'people'.
The will of the 'people' is in direct proportion to
the amount of lies they
permit themselves to believe by the loudest and most
inflammatory voice.
A direct democracy can only result in a kingdom.
The loudest voice will rule.
We hear country after county say inspections work. We
are too stupid to seek their perspective.
Inspections work for France because their oil remains
cheap as long as
inspections continue. Yet the US is accused of a war
for oil.
Inspections work for Germany because their sales of
illegal parts to Iraq
remain hidden.
Inspections work for China because they humiliate the
United States.
Inspections work for Russia because they make The
United States less
powerful in a time when Russia is no longer powerfully
equal. Inspections work for the rest because they
mean concessions from the
United States when stopping them is necessary.
Inspections work for actors because as long as
inspectors are on the ground
in Iraq there is no active open military
confrontation.
NONE OF WHICH HAS ANYTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH
RESOLUTION 1441 OR THE OTHER RESOLUTIONS PASSED OVER
12 YEARS.
Truly, inspections work only for Saddam Hussein's
regime and the individual
agendas of countries and seditious American
politicians.
The rest of the world knows how stupid we look.
Representative Conyers is just the poster child.
I trust the majority of our people are intelligent
enough to weather the
idiocy and remember the culprits when elections do
return.
France sees opportunity and is taking its place as the
defacto leader of the
free world only if they can knock the U.S. off the
podium.
Conyers and his mental midget friends see opportunity
over country.
The world knows it.
Why do we have to prove, we do not?
WHY IS THE WORLD
AGAINST US?
We are their primary economic
rival. If they can stop us from doing anything,
anything at all they will have a victory over a
competitor.
What the world does not realize
is the American way of doing things.
Whereas every country today
suffering under any terrorism of any sort has placated
terrorists by permitting them to strike the second
time, America has drawn the line after the first.
Everything has changed in the way
America addresses its geographic neighbors. But more
importantly America responds to attack. We respond
with a vengeance so far past the realization of the
nations that mock our resolve that even those who call
us liars and those who snicker at our pain will have
no other feeling but fear from us when they realize
that when the President said you are either with us or
against us he meant it.
The American mystique is made up
of an attitude that results in glorifying our
differences while creating a single nation of varied
beliefs, varied cultures and singular strength.
Americans are made up many
peoples. We are not singular in our thinking our tasks
or our focus on priorities. We are though, intense
when we do focus especially when we are defending
ourselves.
Defending ourselves is perceived
by others to be arrogance and pride and might. And
they are right. All three together with patriotism has
never permitted a serious threat to our way of life or
our country and it never shall.
Always mindful of those who do
not contemplate what they repeat: America as a nation
is strong beyond the belief of our fellow countries.
America is the one country on this planet everyone
loves to hate because they cannot be as free or as
easy or as soft in life as America appears to them to
be. America is also the one country that all others
will turn to when in need of immediate threat to their
very existence.
America so seldomly is attacked
because every attack is considered by America to be
the last permitted. Whatever it takes.
FoxNews asks the question: What
Price Liberty? ...
“Give me liberty or give me
death!” still applies because if it ever does not
apply there surely will be death.
The world is against anything
perceived to be past or beyond or not in keeping with
their own individual culture's morals, laws and rules.
America is the melting pot where many cultures join to
create one merged culture. That merged culture
presents a disjointed and combative image to a world
only able to comprehend one topic at a time. That
image is only the parts.
The great whole, which IS America
shall not be defeated, shall not be intimidated and
shall never relent in remaining free with liberty and
justice for every citizen and for every person within
her borders.
In many cases liberal politicians
get caught up in the differences and court each
sub-culture of America with attention intended to
garner votes and play up to the minority status’
desire to be heard and listened to. It is the exact
same process used by bigoted past leaders who played
up to the weakness of ignorance.
It is what causes foreign nations
to believe a tyrant will discuss anything but the
victim’s demise.
It is what causes optimists to
accept discussion when negotiation is prohibited.
There is no difference.
It is not what will cause America
to triumph over evil directed at it or its friends.
American arrogance and pride and
might will remain focused until victory over the
fathers of fear bring closure to moment of loss.
America is a beacon of light in
an otherwise darkly covered world.
A beacon of light is detested
most when it illuminates one's own faults by its sheer
existence.
HOW ANIMALS THINK!
We humans are rather predictable.
All it takes is to identify what
two things make up whatever it was we care to
investigate.
Even electromagnetic wave
transmissions (radio) are triangulated.
So are political parties.
The Democrats and Republicans are
names given to the collection of two “essentially
agreeing but not cooperating on how” subgroups of
each.
Democrats are made up of
Demurecrats, those caring, loving, and compassionate
and worthy Servants of the people who create incentive
as gifts of love and offer hope and potential for life
all-American and the Devilcrats who are not caring at
all but look it, are not loving at all but look it,
are not compassionate at all but look it and are
totally unworthy servants of themselves who create
gifts for themselves through incentives handed out to
look like hope and full of the promise of life
all-American.
The Republicans are made up of
the Demolicans who are really closeted Demurecrats.
But just like the Demurecrats the
Demolicans tend to gravitate to the easy on the brain
consideration and let public opinion turn their heads
from logic because it can be justified, as it will
lead to re-election no doubt. What separates the
Demurecrats from the Demolicans is the position of
consideration for life. The left of the line of total
neutrality
The Demurecrats see life from a
rather visual perspective, which accounts for their
ease in attracting female members. The Demolicans see
life from a more aural perspective which leads to more
male membership and more analytical and therefore less
emotionally attractive rhetoric.
Then there are the rest.
The rest are, by default
Restublicans.
The Restublicans believe the way
people should live is up to them, the way people
should act is up to them and the things people should
or should not do are up them, or they fall in the
crack as part of the country’s true
sub-intellectuals.
Passing over the
sub-intellectuals, which are not the majority, the non
sub-intellectuals are by their environment, which has
nutured nature’s potential using more of the intellect
they have been given by parental evolution, part of
the modern day country we live in. The environment of
most of the population of this country is better than
the typical same situation in Europe and elsewhere.
Our standard of living has
created a people worthy of the potential they have
been given and those who choose to use that potential
wind up making the jump to Demolican to Demeurcrat
very quickly in life. Their environment often
determines which way they choose. What they allow to
be believed in young life is a major controlling
factor in the direction they take.
Sadly, the majority of the
world’s homo-sapien population is less evolved and
more dependent on long term memory for day to day
decisions. They are no less intelligent as the amount
of intelligence one gets is one of the two things that
sets us apart from the branches of our evolutionary
tree. The other is a short circuit making us
self-aware among other things.
The degree to which a homo-sapien
species evolves has a great deal to do with how much
intellect is applied to overcome tradition. Tradition
holds a people in place no matter how nice and warm it
may be.
Those vast peoples across this
planet therefore wind up doing things that are simply
amazing to a more contemplative society.
According to the [world report
thing] Americans believe by 59% that nuclear is the
biggest danger to the world followed at 52% by
religious and racial hatred.

Just this list shows the older
societies more in trouble with religious and racial
hatred as they cope with evolving to a more deeper
understanding of individual people and their own
rights.
Animals don’t think that way at
all.
Animals are more like the very
few Restublicans who use very little of their power of
conscious thinking and self-awareness but less.
Animals do not have the luxury of
perspective. Animals are degrees of good and bad in
everything they do. Everything.
Where we might declare we would
really love to have one of those chocolate cupcakes
and drool over the thought of its smooth and silky
body and moist deep chocolate icing our little friend
the family dog can only recognize the smell as a
degree of good and the sight as a degree of good. Good
might entail extra tail but it is still a degree of
good.
Being simply ‘other-aware’ the
over-grown puppy is not aware of the manner in which
we treat her like another child she only knows it to
be a great degree of good. Our power of self-aware
perspective interprets the body actions, sounds and
especially the facial and
Eye expressions as being
emotional reasoning until we realize that our
subconscious process is also emotional and if we do
not care to use the other one, that short term shorted
out loop of self-aware memory trickling down the long
term tube then we are only different from animals by
the ability to say “I”.
If we let subconscious processing
rule our lives we will have a ruler we have already
suffered through over and over again.
Tyrants and con-men alike keep
control through the support of this subconscious
process so playing up to its weaknesses and fulfilling
its desires.
Animals simply know something is
or is not, not what something is. “Good.” Will suffice
for our baby since her default condition is good. We
have experienced the other default condition before
and know how to steer clear of that herd.
That, that, see that, that. Good.
That GOOD. THAT GOOD. THAT GOOD! THAT GOO…
Until the wagging and the panting
and the shuffling of claws on the door finally reaches
the point where my highly developed self-awareness
blurts out “she really must want to come in”.
She really knows that door when
opened is good.
Talk dog sometime to yourself. Do
it all day long. Don’t use “I” or “me” or even
possessives at all. Simply ‘that’ for every target of
attention and targets of attention must be addressed
unless they have been addressed before. The more
addressed the less addressing is required for it to
evolve into the background. Take a day and walk the
house only responding to noises you hear or movement
you feel or things you see that jump out of the
background because they are different by some degree.
If you are a cat person and care
to take on the feline it all still applies. You only
have to change your perspective from the aural of dogs
to the visual of cats. Take a day and walk the house
only responding to things you see or things you have
seen. The more you see something the less you react to
it. The older you get the more it takes to be reacted
to.
Trust you’ll spend most of the
day avoiding such controlling environment and sleep on
the couch or perhaps curled up under the bed or
finding a nice sunny windowsill to sleep off the
aggravation of it all. prrrrrrrrr
And regardless of your intellect
you can still become a card carrying Restublican who
looks for clarification from people judged before to
be worthy of following.
Or you can become a card carrying
Demeurcrat who looks for clarification from people
judged to be worthy of following.
Rare indeed are the leader
Demurecrats who care and think and help and help and
lead instead of watch over and push for better things.
We have seen a few reach high offices.
Also rare are the leader
Restublicans who care and think and help and prod and
lead instead of watch over and pull instead of push.
We have seen a few of those as well.
Leaders come from those camps
because they stick out, as passionate believers in
causes while the ‘leaders’ of the Devilcrats tend to
lure and scare instead of pull push or lead.
Demolicans don’t lead at all.
They are content with being in the middle of the fray
while maintaining their beliefs. Passion comes from
extreme degrees of good or bad.
Animals collect many different
senses and observational memories that combine to
realize a whole of good or bad which we might refer to
as love or dangerous through their environmental
nurturing of nature’s potential.
They are so sweet and remind us
of love and caring and soft and cuddly and they should
be treated with love and caring and soft and cuddly
affection because animals teach us what we could have
been had yearly humans not stayed the course and
thought their way to the top of the evolving
evolutionary tree.
A Letter from Michael Moore to George W. Bush on the
Eve of War With analysis by Lee Kent Hempfling
George W. Bush
1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Washington, DC
Dear Governor Bush:
ANALYSIS: Michael Moore begins by
insulting the position of The
President of The United States.
He thought he was clever in referring
to the person in such a forgetful
manner but in fact any letter
written to the person holding the
office of President Of The
United States addressed to the
President's House is a letter to
the position of President of The
United States. So we have already
deduced that either Michael Moore
has no intellect at all or is
choosing either to not use it or
is choosing to be disrespectful to the
highest office in the land. But
you are to believe that his method
of salutation is clever and if
you follow his directions and
continue reading you will only be
convinced you are right. Or you
would not be reading it at all.
Unless you intended to expose it
for the lie it is.
So today is what you call "the
moment of truth," the day
that "France and the rest of
world have to show their cards on the
table." I'm glad to hear that
this day has finally arrived. Because,
I gotta tell ya, having survived
440 days of your lying and
conniving, I wasn't sure if I
could take much more. So I'm glad to
hear that today is Truth Day,
'cause I got a few truths I would like
to share with you:
ANALYSIS: We already are aware of
Michael Moore's disrespectful attempt
at ad hominem attack on the
individual occupying the office of President
of The United States. His motive
is not quite as hidden as he had wished.
In the attempt to be clever
Michael Moore became sloppy. "France and the
rest of world have to show their
cards on the table." Leaves out a
preposition giving the collection
of people known as 'the world' a respect
the people deserve but Michael
Moore disrespects the people by
referring to them as "world".
Either that or he is speaking of
the rock and dirt and occasional
weather condition. I tend to believe
it is the latter as his use of
the hill contraction "I got" after the
contraction 'cause indicate a low
utilization of mental faculties. For
the liberals reading this that
means he's stupid.
1. There is virtually NO ONE in
America (talk radio nutters and Fox
News aside) who is gung-ho to go
to war. Trust me on this one. Walk
out of the White House and on to
any street in America and try to
find five people who are
PASSIONATE about wanting to kill Iraqis.
YOU WON'T FIND THEM! Why? 'Cause
NO Iraqis have ever come here and
killed any of us! No Iraqi has
even threatened to do that. You see,
this is how we average Americans
think: If a certain so-and-so is
not perceived as a threat to our
lives, then, believe it or not, we
don't want to kill him! Funny how
that works!
ANALYSIS: Over-reaching
generalities make wonderful fodder for fools
do they not? "virtually NO ONE in
America" leaves out no person. Unless
those persons happen to work at
the talk radio microphone or the
Fox News camera. Both happen to
be rather different and Michael Moore
is well aware of that but does
not want you to know it. Talk radio is
all about inciting riot.
Positions are required: deeply passionate
emotional positions are required
in order to garner the listeners needed
to justify the existence of the
radio program and station. Fox News
is simply passionate about
country. Something Michael Moore would
undoubtedly be comfortable with
only if he was in the ruling class. Oh yes,
those all inclusive NO ONE's in
America: Never mind. If you don't get this
part stop now. Michael Moore
lumps the logic and staying out of conflict
(ie: not going to war) with the
mentality he can understand: "five people
who are PASSIONATE about wanting
to kill Iraqis." If five people were found
together that agreed it would
have to be a chow line in prison and they
would only agree of eating. For
five people to be together and agree on
wanting to kill any person
regardless of nationality it would have to be
five lunatic murderers. Michael
Moore has conveniently forgotten about
Iraq's attempted assassination of
a former President of this country
and of the lives lost during the
first Gulf War and professes to be the
sole curator of knowledge on both
Americans and Iraqis. Fascinating.
I hope the average American does
not think like Michael Moore. But
it might be true where Michael
Moore isolates himself. Michael Moore
said: "If a certain so-and-so is
not perceived as a threat to our lives"
which addresses only one topic.
Perception. If foreign policy or even
business decisions were left up
to perception everything would fall
apart. But then that would be
apparently right up the alley of those
five lunatic murderers and
Michael Moore. I choose to believe the
majority of this country are too
'smart' to fall for Michael Moore's
public display of idiocy. After
all, this country has grown by those
people too smart to stay under
oppression coming here to be free. If they
did not know what the lack of
freedom was they would not have come here.
Michael Moore has no clue. But he
is only just beginning.
2. The majority of Americans --
the ones who never elected you --
are not fooled by your weapons of
mass distraction. We know what the
real issues are that affect our
daily lives -- and none of them
begin with I or end in Q. Here's
what threatens us: two and a half
million jobs lost since you took
office, the stock market having
become a cruel joke, no one
knowing if their retirement funds are
going to be there, gas now costs
almost two dollars -- the list goes
on and on. Bombing Iraq will not
make any of this go away. Only you
need to go away for things to
improve.
ANALYSIS: We are already aware of
the lack of the use of available
knowledge being displayed by
Michael Moore but the most rudimentary
element of our Republic is the
manner in which the framers guaranteed
the impossibility of a kingdom.
His inability to recall such a thing
is not unique. It is apparently a
prerequisite before acquiring
one's liberal card. The President
of this country receives absolutely
NO votes from people casting
votes. It is the way we have a leader
that cannot be elected by stupid
people. The states elect our President.
Michael Moore doesn't even know
what makes this country great. How
could he comment about what could
be wrong with it? Well.. he has that
right but it is only continuing
to prove his stupidity. Stupidity
is the clinical condition of
being unable to reason. Michael Moore
is not reasoning because he is
not aware that he can. Since he is not
aware that he can he is also not
aware of what 3000 lives means. He
is not aware of what logic means
in dealing with people who do not
respect his right to prove his
idiocy. He is not aware of fact and
instead ignores it because he is
not aware of it. A case in point:
"two and a half million jobs" is
nearly the ripple effect of the
airline industry and tourism
drops because of an attack on this
country. "the stock market having
become a cruel joke". The stock
market has always been a cruel
joke. Michael Moore just doesn't like
admitting that any money he many
have lost or known to have been lost
was the price one pays for
believing in fads and other people's
guesses. "no one knowing if their
retirement funds are going to be there"
No one (I hope these aren't the
same NO-ONE's from earlier) has known
their retirement would 'be
there'. Ever. Anyone who has thought so has
been ’lullabying’ near the yellow
brick road. "gas now costs almost two dollars"
Oh my gosh. The lowest price for
gasoline of any country among the
larger industrial giants and he
feels emotional about it. Well of course
he feels emotional about it. A
person who does not reason is nothing
but emotional. "Bombing Iraq will
not make any of this go away" He is
absolutely right. Because bombing
Iraq has nothing to do with any of it.
"Only you need to go away for
things to improve." So it would appear
that Michael Moore has no beef
with now. He has the same beef Daschle
The Dud has for tomorrow. If any
more republican ideas get put into
action it will only serve to
prove they were right and if that happens
the supreme court could change
and oh my gosh. Nothing new here. Michael
Moore is just another mouthpiece
for the cause of power.
3. As Bill Maher said last week,
how bad do you have to suck to lose
a popularity contest with Saddam
Hussein? The whole world is against
you, Mr. Bush. Count your fellow
Americans among them.
ANALYSIS: Bill Maher is just as
nuts as Michael Moore so it would be
logical that Michael Moore would
see fit to use his name as a source
of credibility for his own lack
of abilities. I'll put this one in
two quotes: ""how bad do you have
to suck to lose a popularity contest
with Saddam Hussein"" because it
is Michael Moore quoting Bill Maher
and since I do not have the
knowledge of whether it was a correct
quotation it shall be quoted
twice. So .... It is a pretty funny joke.
But it is no intellectual
statement. If it was it would be asking
instead of inferring. It would be
factual instead of manipulating. It
is inferring and manipulating and
therefore not worthy of intellectual
pondering. But that didn't stop
Michael Moore: He used the quote to
lend credibility to his
continuation (and he knew it was rather slim)
as the sole curator of all
knowledge. "The whole world" would only be
uttered by a cow. But since they
can't talk. Michael Moore volunteered.
There will always be 'fellow
Americans' who disagree, hate their country,
hate the form of government it
was founded on and worse. But until
recently very few of them would
make it public knowledge.
4. The Pope has said this war is
wrong, that it is a SIN. The Pope!
But even worse, the Dixie Chicks
have now come out against you! How
bad does it have to get before
you realize that you are an army of
one on this war? Of course, this
is a war you personally won't have
to fight. Just like when you went
AWOL while the poor were shipped
to Vietnam in your place.
ANALYSIS: Excuse me. I just got
back from virtually puking. Because
the Pope says abortion is wrong
and that makes it a SIN (according
to his eminence Michael Moore)
then where is Michael Moore's letter
to The President calling for an
end to abortion. It isn't there
because those who support
liberals support a right to choose. While
those who support 'war' (as
defined by Michael Moore) do so because
they are showing they can think.
Michael Moore can't have that. It
does not compute. And The Dixie
Chicks have done all they can to
back peddle away from the end of
their career by attempting to
insult the troops using them as a
guise to disguise stupidity. I
managed to miss a draft and
joined a police department instead to
serve while George Bush missed a
draft and joined a National guard
unit to serve. Michael Moore
doesn't know what serving is.
5. Of the 535 members of
Congress, only ONE (Sen. Johnson of South
Dakota) has an enlisted son or
daughter in the armed forces! If you
really want to stand up for
America, please send your twin daughters
over to Kuwait right now and let
them don their chemical warfare
suits. And let's see every member
of Congress with a child of
military age also sacrifice their
kids for this war effort. What's
that you say? You don't THINK so?
Well, hey, guess what -- we don't
think so either!
ANALYSIS: You will notice that
Michael Moore has now entered the
required liberal manual's heart
of the matter argument. Attack
the person, not the point. The
point Michael Moore makes is that he
ran out of a # 5 and made one up
based on nothing of importance
but his lack of reaching a high
place and his jealousy of anyone
who has. Yes of course, I know
Michael Moore makes useless movies
and man on the street morning
radio show sidekick humor but it is
no better a job than mine or
yours. It isn't what you do that
marks you.
6. Finally, we love France. Yes,
they have pulled some royal screw-
ups. Yes, some of them can be
pretty damn annoying. But have you
forgotten we wouldn't even have
this country known as America if it
weren't for the French? That it
was their help in the Revolutionary
War that won it for us? That our
greatest thinkers and founding
fathers -- Thomas Jefferson, Ben
Franklin, etc. -- spent many years
in Paris where they refined the
concepts that lead to our
Declaration of Independence and
our Constitution? That it was France
who gave us our Statue of
Liberty, a Frenchman who built the
Chevrolet, and a pair of French
brothers who invented the movies?
And now they are doing what only
a good friend can do -- tell you
the truth about yourself,
straight, no b.s. Quit pissing on the
French and thank them for getting
it right for once. You know, you
really should have traveled more
(like once) before you took over.
Your ignorance of the world has
not only made you look stupid, it
has painted you into a corner you
can't get out of.
ANALYSIS: All those words. Those
French are indeed wonderful people.
One of my friends and business
associates is French and he's such a
great guy. You see Michael Moore
doesn't even try to hide it. The issue
is not with The French. It is
with the Government of France. Michael
Moore doesn't know the
difference. So, if I may ask in passing, how
does he rectify his single out
our President scheme?
Well, cheer up -- there IS good
news. If you do go through with this
war, more than likely it will be
over soon because I'm guessing
there aren't a lot of Iraqis
willing to lay down their lives to
protect Saddam Hussein. After you
"win" the war, you will enjoy a
huge bump in the popularity polls
as everyone loves a winner -- and
who doesn't like to see a good
ass-whoopin' every now and then
(especially when it 's some third
world ass!). So try your best to
ride this victory all the way to
next year's election. Of course,
that's still a long ways away, so
we'll all get to have a good hardy-
har-har while we watch the
economy sink even further down the
toilet!
ANALYSIS: The reason there are
not a lot of Iraqi soldiers willing
to lay down their lives to
protect Saddam Hussein is that they
have to only go to war. They do
not have to fight. And they die
either way. Stay home and die by
Saddam or go to war and die by
much larger and far more
intrusive bombs and soldiers than Iraq
and Michael Moore can imagine.
And for those who do stand by
Saddam it will be because they
believe they will receive something
personal for doing so. They are
just as deceived as Michael Moore
is. With stupid people like
Michael Moore Saddam would not have
needed soldiers. During Clinton's
reign he only got wrist slapped
and the hijackers entered the
country and the flight training
went unnoticed and the false
passports passed by and the leader
of Iraq sat and watched it all
and hoped it would finally cause
his dual to end. Shot one from
George Senior. Shot two from Saddam
which missed George Senior. Shot
three for George Senior's SON
who Saddam would settle for in
his dual. Do you think those planes
on September 11th had a plan? If
you do then you have to realize
the target was actually the LAST
PLANE. All the attention being
paid to the other attacks
followed by the direct hit on the
White House would settle an old
score. But of course I am not
(like Michael Moore says he is)
privy to all knowledge. And just
like a passionate emotional
creature would do Michael Moore
lets it all out of the bag: "so
we'll all get to have a good hardy-
har-har while we watch the
economy sink even further down the
toilet" you see a bad economy
during a Republican administration
is great news to a liberal. They
don't care about country. They
only care about getting it. Which
is why they do not like FOX NEWS
and DO like CNN.
But, hey, who knows -- maybe
you'll find Osama a few days before the
election! See, start thinking
like THAT! Keep hope alive! Kill
Iraqis -- they got our oil!!
ANALYSIS: Oh man... don't you
hate it when ignorance screams for
attention?... I do not doubt that
any political strategist does not
dream nights away seeing Bin
Laden (I prefer to use Usama as it is more
accurate) being dragged before TV
cameras with every network covering
the night before the grand
election. But that is what they are paid to
do. A leader is paid to do the
right thing. Even in the darkness
placed on truth by stupid people.
Yours,
ANALYSIS: No thank you. I have an
emotional thinking completely input
controlled, reaction creature as
a good friend. Actually we have five.
We love pets when they don't act
like animals.

21, Mar 2003 Saddam's Final Miscalculation
No. It was not staying put in
Baghdad.
It was today's u.n. announcement
from the Iraqi representative calling for censure,
condemnation and hatred for the U.S. and Britain.
Why?
If the u.n. votes to agree with
Iraq and call for the end of the liberation of Iraq
then the u.n. will seal its fate
as totally useless to world security.
The wolf is crying foul for
having been caught and ordered to leave the henhouse
and the farmer is expected to not only agree but
condemn his chickens for daring to be something other
than chicken.
If they agree they all vote to
leave the United States, change the building to office
space (and hopefully a world monument to all those
lost to terror) and put themselves out of business.
Not one rationally thinking
American citizen (and luckily, we make up the majority
of the nation) will accept less than eviction and
elimination of the u.n. should it attempt to condemn
the United States for doing what the u.n. should have
done years ago while acting under a their
own resolution or 18.
If the u.n. votes to turn down
the draft resolution every country that votes to turn
it down mends all fences with The United States. One
single 'no' vote will keep them trusted and respected
holders of illogical views.
So Saddam's final miscalculation
is that all of the words the Iraqi representative
spoke today, total together to reach a concept
intelligent people will comprehend.
Choose to support Iraq's
screaming banshee cry of pain (which is actually
victim withdrawal syndrome) and end the United State's
help in all affairs not directly effecting our
national security or get off the hook free by turning
it down.
Which will they take?
What part of 'we mean what we
say' did they not understand? |
