I guess you can't be prosecuted for being incredibly stupid. |

Mickeyblue User ID: 330969 United States 01/31/2008 03:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | "how many troops died last January 2007", this is the premise of a positive stance on this surge???????? Get real, this past week alone we have dropped 100,000lbs of bombs on a rural area 10km south of Baghdad. We have returned to fighting an air war that is why the deaths have dropped but not the deaths of Iraqis. The week before we dropped 40,000 lobs of ordnance. We are back to indiscriminate killing. One day you might experience this and then you will know just how callous you were in your thinking. Montel Williams should be the recipient of a ton of emails and snail mail congratulating him on his remarks which earn him personal valor. Anderson Cooper should be the recipient of just the opposite in remakrs as he is a worm and was so rude to Ron Paul during the debate last night. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 81537 United States 01/31/2008 03:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The statement that probably did it, was that if they talked about the soldiers, people would change the channel. Talking about some hollywierd fuckwad, keeps the eyeballs on the screen. But then that makes fucks news seem like they don't care about soldiers or the war. Big time conflict. |
