[OT] Nation bashing

[Atrocities]

Yesterday I just tumbled into this article from the Opinion Journal of the Wall Street Journal. I was so astonished by it that I have to share it.

We have this problem in America, its called Free speech, or LWL for Left Wing Liberalism) Sometimes people aflicted with this disease are prone to speak before they think, or say something that is heavily bais toward an idea or concept that they alone have. LWL is a serious condition that affects millions of Americans, and is both a trajic and disabling condition for those who must endure those with LWL.

LWL suffors do not speak for all Americans, however they think they do.

Whether or not the person who wrote the Opinion, has LWL or not is unknown. The problem is people who suffor from LWL often suffor from other conditions such as SBTT, PM, CILTSI, and OPFIM syndrom.

(SBTT is Speaking Before They Think)
(PM, Potty Mouth)
(CILTSI, Call It Like They See It)
(OPFIM, Often Putting Foot In Mouth) Syndrom.

All though many LWL suffors like to think they are speaking for others and often wish to "save" others from their rights, they are more often sufforing from a combination of LWL, SBTT, and OPFIM. Just ask our former Vice President Al Gore.

One LWL concept is that the French when faced with a decesion to fight or surrender, often surrender. LWL suffors believe that if the UN desides to move upon Sadam militarilly, he will demand the French surrender, and they will.

It is regrettable that LWL suffors can not be treated, and that the condition is spreading throughout the US. It is for this reason that many LWL suffors are attempting to hide their affliction by trying to appear as RWL addicts. (RIght Wing Liberalist) Now RWL addicts are a much more up scale clientle, and are often more refined and speak less. There philosphy is simple, Speak softly, but carry a big stick.

By attempting to pass themselves off as RWL addicts, the LWL suffors hope to undermine the positive advances the RWL addicts have made. It is a shame, but most LWL suffors are control freaks who undermine those who have control.

So my advise to you is to ignor the OPINION, and keep the faith that although the French bash us Americans, we love you, the French like brothers.

A quote from an beloved American:

"A rude Frenchman? Who would have thought?" - Robin Williams

I hear Arabic is a hard language to learn. I wish you, the French, the best of luck.

Also has a paralell condition you might be thinking of known as RWC (right wing conservatism).

That article seemed to display much more sympoms of RWC..though it should be noted that oddly enough all the associated conditions are the same.

On a slightly more serious note, does anyone else find is amusing that many Republicans profess to be for less government? This may or may not be a national thing, but a lot of them around here say that then propose laws to increase government in pretty frivlous ways. Ex: a favorite is laws that legislate "Christian" ideas in a "secular" way. The most current example is a bill to force businesses to close on Sundays.

Well the US is a fundamentalist Christian state.

Those would be hard-line religious conservatives, and do not represnt Republicans in general in any way. Most Republicans are for less government, period. Most Republicans are not very religious at all. Do tree-hugging hippies represent all Democrats? No, I didn't think so. Don't define the majority by a small and extremely vocal minority.

Excuse me? Just because the majority of US citizens are Christian or Christian-influenced does not mean that the US is a fundamentalist Christian state.

Some of you guys need to step back, clear your heads, and rethink your positions. America allows the people to choose the religion of their choice. Or even to not believe. So in reality, America is a nation of religious freedom. Freedom for all religions, not just Christians.

And, while we may be more or less limited to two parties, at least we have a stable balance of power between them. Neither side is able to gain a clear Lasting majority. And neither side is able to push forward with a non partisan agenda. It should also be noted that much of what has gone wrong for this administration was covered over during the Last one. Enron did not go broke over night, and neither did WorldCom. I think we all remember what would happen every time a certain young ladies name was on the front page of the Washington Post. Sure as $hit, Iraq would be the target of a few SLCM’s.

The rest of the world comes to America looking for opportunity, freedom, and a better life. When the policies of other nations fail, it is America that steps up and pays the price to put it right. When storms or quakes ravage the world, it is America that opens the coffers and provides aid and cash. When the forces of aggression are on the move, it is more often than not, American blood that has bared the way. And let us not forget who came to the aid of Western Europe on two occasions. And who footed the bill for rebuilding Europe after the Last war. We should also remember who held the line for democracy when Europe was bankrupted by war. And what nation has ever been so kind to it's defeated foes? And it was America that did the majority of the work when Berlin was blockaded. But now Germany is united, and France is...well...France. So we will have a new round of European Nationalism. And the old cast will flex their mustles as they have in the past. Then who knows what will happen? Probably just the same thing that has happened in the past. They will tire of listening to each other and we will have round three.

The one sure thing in all of this is that America will do what is needed to cut the head off of this snake with or with out the help of our dear allies. And should it be without, then there will be one less worry for the planners.
