April
20, 2003 - Nasty Brutish Americans and Free Mumia Chanting Dildos
"This is
the biggest Arab defeat since the Six Day War. I love it! Who's
you daddy now biatch?" stjoan1, in a news.yahoo.com discussion,
gleefully pronounced.
Perhaps against my better
judgment I responded with "Interesting that you are using the
language of wife-beaters in your description of the US 'victory'."
So far I have had no response from the overexcited stjoan1.
I am thankful, though,
that stjoan1 hasn't responded with the rather amusing insult "liberal
puke"--an epithet that has been hurled at me on several
occasions. I am not entirely sure what it is supposed to mean, though,
as my puke is probably very much the same as the puke of conservatives.
Perhaps the contents of my stomach need a dash of red, white and
blue.
Along the same lines
as liberal puke is the assumption that I am a hippie, or from Berkeley.
While I have been to Berkeley and have seen hippies walking around,
I am neither a hippie nor live in Berkeley.
I may be a liberal, though,
as any self-respecting reactionary conservative can see from this
comment I posted on a discussion
board at bigsoccer.com
(The comment was in response to complaints about the behavior of
the peace protesters):
"You may have
disagreements about tactics with some of them [peace protesters],
however, I am not sure why that would make you more likely to
agree with the hawks."
This was the very well
considered response from Nate505.
"Because they
are blocking traffic? That, and they are just irritating. Who
wouldn't want to take a violent attitude towards a bunch of tree
hugging, veggie burrito eating, pot smoking, Che Guevera t-shirt
wearing, Free Mumia chanting dildos?"
Damn Hippies!

Nate505's astonishing
display of erudition has made me completely reconsider my position
on the war. After all, it makes sense that we should invade another
country because Nate505 can't stand the smell of patchouli (and
all that other stuff hippie stuff). I am not sure about the Free
Mumia Chanting Dildos, though. That's way too perverted for me.
It's really quite bizarre
that much of what passes for discussions concerning the war consists
of arguing about style. Those that are against the war are just
as guilty of this, however, outside of blocking traffic, they aren't
nearly as brutish
as the true-blue Americans.
