A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

So this afternoon on this thread over at the eschaton, a troll going by the nom de blog The American Left, makes a few interesting statements. So what the hell, I will share them with you. Any Italicised text represents something said by some other party, any bold text or text within parenthases will indicate snark or background.

i'm getting my ass handed to me everywhich way, and i just can't take it anymore.

And so it begins, makes a good point doesn't it.
...

Every time Bush is proven right or the liberal media is proven wrong, all I have is name-calling and impotent RAAAAAGE! It's easier to throw crap than to stand up for what is right!

Obviously the American military has beaten prisoners, killed them, sexually humiliated them, but don't you libs DARE accuse the military of flushing a Koran down the toilet, or you will expose yourselves for the tinfoil hat wearing conspiracy kooks you all secretly are.


Obviously the American military investigated, tried, and convicted the people responsbile, so America must be bad and should be attacked by Saddamites and Islamofascists on a regular basis.

Not sure it is aware of it, but he is responding to a parody troll.
.....

i hope your son, your daughter, your mother, your father, your freind, your brother, whoever goes to iraq and dies for the lie.


Wishing death upon people--another great support-building tactic brought to you by the American Left!

...

we didn't start this war.


Correct-Saddam started it.


We'll finish it, and the Iraqis will thank everyone who supported their liberation.


I don't know what they'll think of the people who supported Saddam, though.

It should be obvious at this point that there is no reasoning with this one.
....

Bolton will stand up to dictators and murderers, and their supporters, in the UN. We just can't have that happening.

.....

How exactly, did Saddam start the war? (I had asked this question in response to 4:04)


Kuwait, 1991, was supposed to give up his weapons and stop oppressing people afterward? Spent his time instead building palaces and buying off leftist politicians like your hero George Galloway and Jacques Chirac?


Saddam started it. We finished it.

I won't even go into the details of our "a nudge is as good as a wink to a blind bat" complicity.
....

another stupid ass.


Another leftist dodge. You're the one who wished death upon someone I know to "teach me a lesson". Typical--use violence to force ideological purity.


And you wonder why so many people tried to escape from the workers' paradises of the Soviet bloc?

.....



If you finished it, what are 150,000 soldiers doing bogged down in Iraq?


Trying to keep your dead-ender allies among the remnants of the Ba'ath party, and their friends among al Qaeda, from killing more freedom-loving Iraqis and toppling the democratically-elected government.


I know you freaks hate votes and elections--just look at the fight over the constitutional option, where you nuts want to prevent a fair vote on judicial nominees--but can you at least pretend to have the best interests of Iraqis at heart once in a while, instead of foreign jihadis and friends of the former dictator?

Saddam is awaiting trial for his many crimes, when he should be given a comfortable home, welfare, and some understanding.

TAL - let's show these rotten bastards what true patriotism is all about by signing up for military service and volunteering for duty in Iraq. (the General made this statement and drew out a rather curious response)


Why would I want to go to Iraq when there are even more dangerous and diabolical Islamofascists for me to fight right here?

The American Left | Email | Homepage | 05.15.05 - 4:24 pm |

I presume he is referring to us evil leftists, but clearly the ftrain has jumped the tracks.
....

Ethiopians are voting in elections today. Why can't they just have a brutal dictator like all brown people are supposed to have?

Trans. I don't think I am a rascist fuckwit, besides monumental evidence to the contrary.
...

I just bought a new yellow ribbon decal for my Suburban last week. See: you commie pinko libs hate the troops.


That's good, but it's not enough. You also need to make a call to Rush Limbaugh's show to voice your support at least once every three or four months.


I know waiting on hold ain't fun, but it's the very least we can do to show our solidarity with those young men and women who are in harm's way.

What a terrible waste of all that food, water, and air.
