About Me
- Name: Intellectual Insurgent
- Location: South Georgia & South Sandwich Islands
I am the person who fits in nowhere and everywhere.
Extremists. Militants.
Religious Fanatics. Terrorists.
Patriot.
And as the picture focused in, you could see the writing on the headstone, and it gave his awards - Purple Heart, Bronze Star - showed that he died in Iraq, gave his date of birth, date of death, he was 20 years old. And then at the very top of the head stone, it didn't have a Christian cross. It didn't have a Star of David. It has a crescent and star of the Islamic faith.
And his name was Kareem Rashad Sultan Khan. And he was an American. He was born in New Jersey. He was fourteen years old at the time of 9/11, and he waited until he could serve his country and he gave his life.

If you think about it . . . that sign speaks da trufe. Since the outcome of fucking has been known to produce new people who tend to be born into virginity. Bombing can have the same effect. If you bomb and bomb the shit out of the enemy, they can't help but become peaceful if their defeat is complete. I know it's simplistic but indulge my juvenile sense of cyclic forces, please.
Cool pic.
Ha! Right. Peace...becuse they're all dead and theres nobody left to make war. We have a winner!
...and when your new virgins are in their teens, odds are, they too will lose their status, if they're lucky, that is. Same thing with wars; finish one, up comes another; viz the Balkans.
:-), StS
Just trying to document Wingut logic here.....
Bombs don't kill people, people do.
Guns don't kill people, people do.
Prophylactics (got the spelling right the first time too) don't prevent baby's or sexually transmitted diseases, people do.
Ok, I think I got it here. Let me try to extend this logic here, from a Moderate viewpoint (Radical, extreme, Kool Aid drinking interpretation if read by a Wingnut).......
Laws don't prevent people in power, from breaking the Law, people do (hellloooooo Congress, I'm talking about you enforcing the Laws of this Nation).
Inviting Energy executives and the Attorney General to testify before Congress doesn't ensure they will speak the truth, people do. (helllloooo, Congress, yes you again. If you are requiring people to testify before Congress, shouldn't you be swearing them in first, to ensure there is a consequence of failure to tell the truth?).
Tax cuts for the Energy industry doesn't make them want to voluntarily invest in Energy alternatives, people do (Mr. President, this one's for you).
Energy credits don't protect the environment, people do (Mr. President this one's for you too).
Pleasant slogon's like "No child left behind", or "I'm a Uniter not a divider", don't produce results, peole do (Mr. President this is your hat trick, and I'll stop here, except I think your line "You're either with me or against me" pretty much shoots a giant hole in your Uniter thingee).
Does this logic defy the Patriot act? The logic don't, but the people do.
Mr. Sleep,
You are flattering the wingnuts way too much by suggesting that there is any logic to their stances. :-) They are the faith-based community who do not allow facts and pesky reality to stand in the way of their opinions.
II,
My typo's strike again!!! Peole, what the hell is a Peole?
Maybe it's a combo Piss Ant, and Assehole.
Good moniker for a select few folks though.
Baby jesus was born to a virgin, so maybe bombing can lead to peace.
Do you think peace really exists? Or is it a myth? (Or is a myth just a female moth? I can never get that right...)
Good question. Has there ever been a time in history where there was peace? I don't know of any.
Nice site. I've added it to my aggregator.
Hey there. I've been a lurker forever... found you through Free Agency Rules' blog, who in turn used to comment on a blog called (which you might enjoy, btw). Anyway... my point in dropping you a line now is that I wanted to say I think you make some EXCELLENT arguments... informative and well thought out. In short, you give good debate. :-)
Battle on!
...and if it weren't for wars fought earlier they wouldn't have the right to hold their silly and simplistic sign to protest the war that has freed tens of thousands of people from the opression of the Taliban and Saddam.
