Explain to me how other Arab nations will want to be like Iraq? Or does "Domino Theory" mean you start one war and it spills over into the next nation?
Other questions:
Who forged the Niger document in the first place? Why? If I'm going to forge something it will be valuable.
Where have all the unhappy US soldiers gone? Two weeks ago the papers were full of them. Now, not a peep.
Where are all the wounded American soldiers? I've only seen Jessica Lynch.
How many visits has GWB or Rumsfeld made to the military hospitals to visit the wounded?

Officially around 6000 service members have been flown back to the US on 'medical evacuation mission'; over a thousand are 'Wounded in Action' - one third of them in August. The current average is over 10/day.
"Our nation doesn't know that," said Susan Brewer, president and founder of America's Heroes of Freedom, a nonprofit organization that collects clothing and other personal items for the returning troops. "Sort of out of sight and out of mind."

GWB: None - Dunno about Rummie.

Yes, people who support the Bush administration don't like them.

I know how Niger is pronounced.
It was a joke, as in people calling things that aren't racist, racist.
I was doing the same, as a joke.
Come on people, it wasn't even tricky humor..

The unhappy soldiers are still there, but the top brass have squelched the lines of communication as well as they could. Some would argue that it's possible that the situation was resolved, but I doubt that because Bush would be bragging to all the media outlets if it were.

Unnecessary adjective. It wasn't even humour.

I and many others that pvt messagd me about it thought it was pretty darn funny.
What you mean is, you didn't find it funny.
And that is ok. You didn't have to laugh.
But going on and on about it just makes you look silly.

Well that is what is called a opinion. Many in here pvt message me, because they don't want to get attacked by the socially challenged.

My point being, just because you find it hard to believe, doesn't mean it isn't happening.

Uhm, Niger is pronounced "Nijer", not "Neeg-ar" or "Nyg-ar", old boy. But you right about it not being "tricky" humour, whatever that may be.

I'm beginning to think that you really are seriously disturbed and not only seriously "mentally challenged", Zimbodrome. Given your normal use (abuse?) of the English language, it's difficult to tell whether you truly did PM yourself or whether you're just embarrassed over your rather obvious error.
In fact the only way I can see your little furry friends PM'ing you is if your friends are from the same "somewhat challenged" crowd that used to be proud of being able to count to 20. (Ref. MacNN archives)

Wow how many posts now and people STILL don't understand that I knew how to pronounce Niger in the first place.
It was simple humor, and you guys STILL didn't get it obviously.

Is this another one of your lame personal attacks filled with immature baseless accusations?
May I suggest some zoloft?

No, Zimbo old chap, it's just an observation.

No, it's a projection. Obviously I posted that as a joke.
Seeing how people have been calling comments racist when they weren't. I was playing a long.
It either flew above your head, or you are being purposely obtuse.
Naw, *I* don't need any.

Yeah verbal masturbation is fun.
Sometimes, he can't even control himself.
I mean I could be equally witty and call him something like "theurine" but that would be...
Silly.

That's "along", Zimbo old friend.

Obtuse is what it is trying to decipher the strange conglomeration of words you use.
Naw, *I* don't need any.
I am truly surprised.

It's not like I haven't said it about 5 times now.
obtuse what it is trying to decipher the strange conglomeration of words you use.
Now that I know you know what obtuse means, do you know what ad hominem means? Because your last 5 or so posts in here have just been that.
Why? I am not the one going apeshit and personally attacking people with ad hominem attacks.
Didn't the mods ask you to stop that once? You do know the next step will be a bannination.
So keep the attacks coming.

You're a person? I do apologise.

Nope, that was being gracious to Logic and Lerkfish. However, you're more than welcome to compain if you feel like it. I'm sure you will illicite much sympathy from all concerned.
So keep the attacks coming.
