Figures. Another republican about to blow a blood vessel with his "Where's my 'White Male Month' when he doesn't realize that he has it EVERY month.

Based on how most (not all... but most) of you think... I should be able to walk up to you and punch you in the face, and you shouldn't be able to do anything to me. In fact, I should be able to punch you several times, and based on how you think, you should only sit there and take it.
From the Chosun Journal:
He continues economic policies that have resulted in the deaths of a million of his people. In 1997 at the height of the famine he brought in Italian chefs and special ovens to make gourmet pizzas. This year he bought $340 million worth of military arms in part through selling North Korean political prisoners as gulag laborers to Russia all the while receiving $120 million in unmonitored foreign aid that is redirected to the elite and military. He perpetuates a cult of personality and punishes those who do not refer to his dead father in the present tense. He controls his starving population by imprisoning up to three generations of families whose descendants were Christians or from South Korea. He sends 100,000 N. Korean agents into China to assassinate South Korean missionaries and to infiltrate the underground railroad for N. Korean refugees. He prevents seven million North Koreans from reuniting temporarily with their relatives in the South after more than 50 years of separation. He directly ordered the terrorist bombing of KAL flight 858 and routinely orders the kidnapping of South Korean and Japanese citizens.
Did you know anyone who died in 9/11? If not, did you cry for those who died? Did you feel anything but shock? Unless you lived in NYC, or knew someone who was killed, probably not. After all, feeling that bad for someone's death requires that you knew them on a personal level.
Until Bush started flinging accusations around, no one gave a flying fu*k about Iraqis. After all, how many Iraqis civilians did you know?

You guys need to bone up on this situation let me give some help here!
Why was an invasion of Iraq necessary?
Because of many reasons:
1. on a philosopical level because tyranny in any form is the enemy of freedom, It is the duty of the US to defend freedom.
2. for stability in the region. This area is a powder keg for nuclear war IF Iraq was allowed to obtain a nuclear weapon Israel would be required to act for its own survival
3. to send a message to the other tyrants in the area "this could happen to you! get straight!"
4. to send a message to the rest of the world "we are pissed off and when we get pissed we must unleash the sword of freedom on somebody get in line it could be you next!!!!"
BUT what can be reduced is that in general support for the war comes down to a question of "Do you like GWB?"
That's the same message they were trying to send to us. Did it work?
"Whoa, these people are mad! They must be right!"?
They all think we're a loose canon now.

What kind of ignorant bull are you trying to throw at me? Just cuz they're angry they're right? MAN you're diluted.
GOOD!
One more major terrorist attack on this nation will bring down hellfire and brimstone from the American PEOPLE. "VENGEANCE" will be screamed from every home and anyone who stands in our way had better be prepared to face a wrath and a might never seen on this planet. The greatest military force on earth will be brough down like a hammer of retribution and the skies of our enemies' nations will be black with nuclear smoke.
At least that's the way I hope it goes... if not, the people of this nation have no balls anymore. If we stand for another attack without declaring all out war, that will be the day I'll be ashamed of my nation.
I won't stand there and let someone punch me in the face without at least TRYING to beat the living F out of him. Would you? Probably not... why? Because if you don't stop them, they'll probably do it again. We're not dealing with rational human beings here, we're dealing with monsters he!l bent on our destruction no matter the cost. Unless we adopt the same notion if/when we are attacked again, the nation will begin to crumble appart.
