Liberal Candy
Current mood: cynical
Category: News and Politics

This is an email i got. One different out of several dozens of Liberal Diatripes I recieve almost daily. Fair is Fair on the Free Speech, so deal with it hippies ;)

"I don't know if the war in Iraq is right or wrong, only God knows that. And I try not to be judgmental about other folks But I love this lady and what she says and I want everyone to know that. The lady who wrote this letter is Pam Foster of Pamela Foster & Associates in Atlanta . She's been in business since 1980 doing interior design and home planning. She recently wrote the following letter to a family member serving in Iraq. Check it out!


"Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we? Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September 11,2001. Were people from all over the world, mostly Americans, not brutally murdered that day, in downtown Manhattan, across the Potomac from our nation's capitol and in a field in Pennsylvania? Did nearly three thousand men, women and children die a horrible, burning or crushing death that day, or didn't they?

And I'm supposed to care that a copy of the Koran was "desecrated" when an overworked American soldier kicked it or got it wet? Well, I don't. I don't care at all.

I'll start caring when Osama bin Laden turns himself in and repents for incinerating all those innocent people on 9/11.

I'll care about the Koran when the fanatics in the Middle East start caring about the Holy Bible, the mere possession of which is a crime in Saudi Arabia .

I'll care when Abu Musab al-Zarqawi tells the world he is sorry for hacking off Nick Berg's head while Berg screamed through his gurgling, slashed throat.

I'll care when the cowardly so-called "insurgents" in Iraq come out and fight like men instead of disrespecting their own religion by hiding in mosques.

I'll care when the mindless zealots who blow themselves up in search of nirvana care about the innocent children within range of their suicide bombs.

I'll care when the American media stops pretending that their First Amendment liberties are somehow derived from international law instead of the United States Constitution's Bill of Rights.

In the meantime, when I hear a story about a brave Marine roughing up an Iraqi terrorist to obtain information, know this: I don't care.

When I see a fuzzy photo of a pile of naked Iraqi prisoners who have been humiliated in what amounts to a college hazing incident, rest assured that I don't care.

When I see a wounded terrorist get shot in the head when he is told not to move because he might be booby-trapped, you can take it to the bank that I don't care.

When I hear that a prisoner, who was issued a Koran and a prayer mat, and fed "special" food that is paid for by my tax dollars, is complaining that his holy book is being "mishandled," you can absolutely believe in your heart of hearts that I don't care.

And oh, by the way, I've noticed that sometimes it's spelled "Koran" and other times "Quran." Well, Jimmy Crack Corn and ---- you got it, I DON'T CARE!


What i get out of this is that you can't rationalize opinions that are held this deep. Or proxy them and proclaim them the anthem for an entire political party.

Furthermore, Why should this "Religious War" be one sided. Why would anyone expect someone to hear their opinion, when it dictates that the opposing opinion is a violation of "Church and State"?? Why is freedom of religion only "threatened" on the side of radical martars who pervert their own religion almost independantly from the inside out?.

Good luck trying to "outhink" raw emotions. We better learn to deal with all opinons, and not chastise the view of the minority. In case you haven't guessed, the conservative view is the minority these days. Stop trying to WIN the debate, and pick up a torch for REAL Peace, and not an IDEALIZED version of it.

and....... I'm done now

The Noog






Applause!
