Lies, all lies. I don't know if the administration has actually told us the truth about ANYTHING.
I agree. They have actually lied more than Nixon ever did and yet impeachment is no nearer to the horizon.
How do these guys get away with this shit?
Incredible. I wonder, is there even any such thing as an "insurgent"? What the hell does that term even mean? Sounds like it means scapegoat.
Ah, politics. It's been so long since I have partaken. Kel, how do you do this every day and not become desperately ill, as I did last year? I was nearly overcome by emotion. Moderation is the only way for me to do this. I must stick with the more comedic videos and commentary you post. I just can't take the pain and anguish and mental overload brought on by videos like this one.
Will,
"Insurgent" is simply a way of avoiding saying the word, "Iraqi" and is a remnant from the post invasion days when the Bushies were trying to explain the violence without acknowledging the truth. Remember "Saddam remnants" and "Saddam loyalists"? Oh, the many ways they have found to describe these people.
But the most important thing was always that you described them in a way that allowed the myth of "liberation" to continue. After all, a truly liberated people wouldn't resist, would they?
And I do this Will because it keeps me sane. If I didn't do this I'd just jump out the window!
