I hate all Iranians, US aide tells MPs
Britsh MPs visiting the Pentagon to discuss America's stance on Iran and Iraq were shocked to be told by one of President Bush's senior women officials: "I hate all Iranians."

4. My God!
Is the White House hiring right-wing drag queens?
The woman looks like a refugee from the soon-to-be-defunct "Flash Gordon" TV series on the US Sci-Fi Channel.

In any case, her words are disgusting and unhelpful.

5. She is very forceful and some of my colleagues were intimidated by her muscular style...
Edited on Sun Sep-30-07 10:15 AM by Xipe Totec
according to one MP.

The Iron Cross around Frau Cagan's neck is also very impressive.

9. Yikes!
She should be fired immediately for saying such inflammatory rubbish, but since I see she has already received the Iron Cross of Freiheit, I suppose it ain't going to happen. Where do they dig these people up?!

46. Is this for real?
Edited on Mon Oct-01-07 09:11 PM by PDenton
She looks like a goddamn Nazi (OK, the iron cross is white- what is that, a Maltese Cross?). An ugly version of the typical "Nazi Vixen" in pop culture (think the game Return to Castle Wolfenstein et al.). The jacket with the high collar doesn't help, either.

8. That picture plus this quote from the article:
Tory Stuart Graham, who was on the ten-day trip, would not discuss Ms Cagan but said: 'It was very sobering to hear from the horse's mouth how the US sees the situation."


makes ya think it's satire.

19. Also it's from an unreliable newspaper
It wouldn't surprise me if it's true; but I'll wait till I see it in a more reliable place than the 'Daily Hate-Mail', before I believe it as gospel.

15. My letter to Sen. McCaskill-
Edited on Sun Sep-30-07 11:41 AM by stlsaxman
Dear Senator McCaskill,

Please read this article regarding statements made by Debra Cagan, Deputy Assistant Secretary for Coalition Affairs to Defense Secretary Robert Gates, to British MP's when they met on September, 11 of this year.

http://www.mailonsunday.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=484762&in_page_id=1770

Please go before the senate and state ON THE RECORD that the current administration does NOT SPEAK FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE when it expresses hatred of the citizens of any nation.

This is an outrage and must be addressed! Debra Cagan's firing would could never be punishment enough for such a statement.

Thank you for representing me,
stlsaxman

should be held to some standard of diplomacy, taste and decorum.

22. That has got to be one of the scariest photos I have EVER seen
I'm really nervous now. I'm sure not only does she hate Iranians, she hates, Blacks, Latinos, Jews, Muslims and Asians, anyone who is not a WASP.

This woman is not of right sound and mind. She looks CRAZY almost possessed and demonic.

24. Recommended~ debra cagan
drank all the Koolaid at the party and sucked it up through a straw.

This is absolutely incredible that anyone could be that prejudiced and full of racist hate but when it's the buSHITS I'm not even surprised.

May their black, cheney contagious, lack of hearts be vaporized and new ones ordered.

37. I've liked every Iranian I've ever met.
(About 5.) Of course, these were people who were here for academic pursuits and they may not be "typical".

Interestingly, the one word that applies to all of them would be "merry". Even our friend Ahmedinajad seems a bit merry in his own demented way. Maybe it's something in the water over there.
