Political Discussion: I hate forums for a lot of the same reasons I hate talk radio. But I'm also drawn to them for a lot of the same reasons.

Pretty big news came out yesterday about WMDs. Here's my version of how these discussions are going:

DubyaDude: Hmmm. It appears some WMD components have emerged from Syria. Some Iraqi-trained Al-Qaeda guys wanted to kill a bunch of people.

Patsy4Dems: What are you, a MORON??? Or a Patsy for the Bush team?!?!? THERE WERE NO WMDS! IT'S A CLOSED ISSUE. WE LOOKED AROUND REALLY HARD WHEN WE WALKED INTO IRAQ AND THEY WEREN'T THERE. GEORGE BUSH IS THE BIGGEST LIAR IN THE FREE WORLD!!!!!!!! AND YOU ARE HIS HELLSPAWN!!!!!

KerryChick74: I read in the newspaper last week that Bush only wanted to find the WMDs so he could use them on innocent Iraqis and take their oil. I think it was the New York Times or something.

DubyaDude: Um, but this is new evidence. This is a new news story from yesterday, and kind of a big deal. Did you even read the article? 80,000 dead would be like September 11th ten times over.

Patsy4Dems: So what, now you're implying I can't READ?? You're saying I'm STUPID? GAH!!! You really are hellspawn, calling names like that. Only STUPID, STUPID people call names.

KerryChick74: Oh, so now you're blaming Saddam for September 11th? It was proven unequivocally on a fifteen minute spot on NPR that Saddam and Al-Qaeda were arch enemies. They used to publish comic books in Iraq where Saddam and Osama would fight, just like Batman and the Joker. Saddam used to use Terrorist requests for WMDs as toilet paper.

DubyaDude: Look, as you've pointed out in other threads, we helped Saddam even when he was our enemy when we had to deal with an even greater enemy. And the only people these guys hate more than each other are Americans and Jews. Besides, the last guy who tried to blow up the world trade center holed up in Iraq afterwards. Why do we want to pretend Saddam and these guys weren't on the same page? That's myopic.

Patsy4Dems Your calling me myopic only proves your own closed-minded myopic blind lack of vision.
