"Back Off?" Fuck You (Redux)
The successor to Secretary of Defense and Maker of Stupid Statements Donald Rumsfeld, the colorless Robert Gates, recently implied that members of Congress and the general public who criticize the Eternal War are somehow encouraging The Enemy.
Dr. Gates?
Fuck you.
Dissent is American; had it not been for dissent, this region would still swear fealty to the British Crown. To blindly follow our Dear Leader wherever his folly takes us is servile and un-American.
What are we afraid of? Back in the 40s ("The Greatest Generation" - tm) we faced off against ruthless dictators equipped with nations, industrial might and armies numbering in the millions. Why are we so wet-our-pants AFRAID of a motley group of troublemakers with no fixed abode, no industrial base at their backs, and no standing army?
Oh yeah, that's right. This Administration WANTS us afraid, so that it can do whatever the fuck Dick Cheney wants. It wants us afraid so that we won't question Dear Leader when his ghoulish "Homeland Defense" and legal caporegimes decide to strip away another of our rights and freedoms. It wants us afraid so that the Ultra-Right Christian Fascist Wing of the GOP can continue getting fat and rich off our fear.
So, Dr. "Don't Know Much About Military Affairs" Gates, I for one - and millions of others - will continue to dissent and to protest. And as for endangering our troops (another mindless trope on your part, which only serves to prove that you need to wipe the semen off your chin), sending 21,500 more Americans into a city to referee a sectarian civil war (with no plan and no exit strategy - indeed, no Plan B if this plan goes tits-up on you) endangers the troops.
We're not endangering our troops, you stupid, stupid man.
YOU ARE.
Dr. Gates?
Fuck you.

Seems they are pretty damned desperate when they start to blame the constitution for what's wrong in Iraq. Damned freedom of speech and all. I hope the Iraqis are picking up on the kind of democracy bush et al, are planning for them. The product doesn't match the advertisement.
