Kit Lange (nee Jarrell), noted genocide advocate, is outraged — OUTRAGED!!!!!, I tell you — about the latest ad from the Democratic National Committee, which takes John McCain to task for his willingness to keep US soldiers in Iraq for 100 years…
The fact that Dems would even THINK of using the deaths of two American soldiers to further their defeatist political agenda makes me want to put THEM by a palm tree with an IED.
Of course it does. Kit is a murder worshipper — disagree with her, express an opinion she dislikes, think the wrong thoughts, and the first and only response that comes to her mind is murder.
The thing is, they’re gleeful about it.
Kit demonstrates her amazing telepathic abilities. Of course no one is ‘gleeful’ that soldiers are dying in Iraq. That’s why keeping them for 100 years is such an asinine idea.
They’re unapologetic. Do they not get that those soldiers are someone’s husband and father and brother and son?
Why should anyone apologize for pointing out the fact that husbands and fathers and brothers and sons are dying in Iraq — and would continue to do so for a century, under the policies of John McCain?
What kind of ghouls are these people?
I have a better question: What kind of ghoul calmly asserts that he is “fine” with sending Americans to die in an occupied country for 100 years?
UPDATE 05/01/08 10:58 AM EDT: Citing the faux furor over the alleged source of the video footage, The Carpetbagger Report asks:
The RNC is worried about footage from a Michael Moore movie, after the RNC used footage from al Qaeda?
Whose side are they on?

LOL.
I wonder what you wrote about when I took three months off. You’re welcome, by the way, for the material. You missed the Islamic post about goats and anal sex though. NYT picked that one up on their blotter.
Have a great day! Love the attention. =)
By the way…bet my comment never makes the front page. You’ll notice, however, that I choose to allow your retardation to stand on mine.

I find it interesting that Kit comments not on the substance of your post (which may be right or wrong, and I believe you might be quoting McCain slightly out of context), but on other non-substantive topics such as how she is providing you with “the material” for your post.
Personally, having been reading meatbrain’s blog for probably over half a year at least, I can attest that meatbrain certainly doesn’t need any one right-of-center blog for material. Meatbrain even posts non-political posts too, just like rightontheright.com’s Justin tends to post how great the Republican party is with the occasional sports post thrown in. That’s Justin’s thing, just like it’s meatbrain’s thing to post critiques of right-of-center blogs. Way to distract from the topic at hand Kit!
How is it that people actually think that this is how you have a debate? Sigh…
-
Don’t you have a problem with the DNC using the footage of two U.S. soldiers being killed as a prop for their anti-McCain campaign? I don’t even like McCain but I think their use of the footage is beyond disgusting.
I’ve put nothing else in this comment because I want you to answer that question with no other distraction. DO you have a problem with their use of the footage?
-
1. I don’t like McCain either, but not for the reasons you mention.
2. I think the war in Iraq has been mishandled, but I agree with being there.
3. Since when have I said I want to keep the public ignorant of the facts about casualties? In fact, to prove my point, I just wrote a post about casualties.
4. It is about respect. Two American lives ended in that split second, and those men died. That is worth more than a cheap political shot on TV.
5. Before you bother mentioning the “millions” of Iraqis that have died (or so you claim), let me just save you the trouble of trying to pin me into a corner. YES, I believe one American soldier is worth more than an Iraqis life. Hands down. And YES, I think if we’re going to end al-Qaeda’s reign over there, we need to be killing a whole lot more Iraqis. There’s your sound bite for the day.

“Warpimps like Kit would like to hide the fact of continued US casualties in Iraq, for the simple reason that such knowledge increases the public’s desire to get the United States out of the occupation business in that country. The alleged ‘disgust’ that Kit is whining about is simply a smoke screen for her desire to keep the public ignorant of the facts.”
You JUST SAID in your previous comment that I want to “keep the public ignorant of the facts.” I want no such thing.
I don’t have a problem with you guys talking about your disagreement with McCain’s statement. Freedom of speech and all that. But you could do it without the footage of American troops being blown up. That is ALL I am saying.
-
You make no sense, and as always, your arguments are boring.
You attribute a purpose to me (that I want to keep info from the public) and then claim you never said that I SAID I wanted to do that? Do you realize how asinine that entire thing is?
I also think it’s funny that you always refer to me in third person, even when talking to me.
You know, I would probably even send you a good book or something for your birthday, just because I had forgotten how much fun you are.
-
LOL! ”...those intentions are clearly discernable from the actions that such people take.”
Well, based on the actions that you take, I can discern that you wish to see the United States overrun by jihadis. You do not take the position of “sticking up for” your own nation, but instead you trumpet the cause of suspected insurgents instead.
I can see why you’re not in the military.
-
HA! You’re writing on your site about me, you’ve followed me around for a few years now, talking smack about me and calling me everything from bigot to “noted genocide advocate,” and yet you have my comments linked as SPAM?
That is the funniest thing I’ve ever heard. Thanks for proving, yet again, that only liberals are allowed to have free speech.
-
LOL. I appreciate the whitelist. You’re now my favorite liberal.
-
Getting back to the original point of the post, the liberals like Meatbrain who claim to be outraged “that husbands and fathers and brothers and sons are dying in Iraq” (that’s other people’s husbands and fathers and brothers and sons, since most liberals tend not to associate with us) tend to forget that we are an all-volunteer force. We don’t need liberals to speak for us, or for our casualties. We know what we’re fighting for, and we’ll let you know when we want to give up the fight. Until then, Meat, speak for yourself, but don’t pretend to speak for us.

Hi Meat. Don’t know if this comment is late in the game [last post May of ‘08] but I have to respond to Odysseus. I am a liberal…a Navy veteran married to an Army retiree [Special Forces]. He’s a liberal as well. We feel [as a great many of our veteran friends feel] that the Republican party is not representing our ideals, dreams and vision. I am OUTRAGED that this war continues and fear that my Army son will be going back to Iraq and will be killed. Or that my Air Force veteran daughter will be called back to active duty to fight as well as my ANG son. I feel sad for Odysseus … and his family. What ARE you fighting for? To think that the fight in Iraq is all about OUR FREEDOM is such a load of crap. 9/11? Iraq had no part in it – but our friends the Saudis were involved. Sigh. Maybe the PROTECT OUR FREEDOM mantra is what gets the Airmen and Soldier through this nightmare. In their defense they can’t help but soak in the propaganda our military keeps spewing. God help us all. [Odysseus…I hope you made it back ok].
