At this point, the conversation moved into split screen mode.
"I don’t believe that you believe troops are terrorists. I have said that before," Hasselbeck continued, "but when you say something like, ‘655,00 Iraqis are dead. We invaded them...who are the terrorists?’..." She trailed off.
O’Donnell repeated: "Do you believe that I think our troops are terrorists, Elisabeth?..You would not even look me in the face, Elisabeth, and say, 'No, Rosie.' "
Hasselbeck shot back: "Because you are an adult, and I am certainly not going to be the person for you to explain your thoughts...Defend your own thoughts!"
...
O’Donnell, 45, continued: "I asked you if you believed what the Republican pundits were saying. You said nothing and that’s cowardly. Nothing, Elisabeth."
Why can't people like Rosie Support the Troops with nice shiny happy talk? Doesn't she know all they need is a little puppy love, some kisses, and smoke blown up their ass to help them get through the day? You wouldn't want to Make a Marine Cry would you? God, how could she be so insensitive? Why do they always have to Blame America First when America initiates an unprovoked invasion of an unarmed country, then completely botches the security and the reconstruction effort? Why? Why! WHY!?
Maybe because sometimes these things have to be said.
About 60 years ago there were riots in the streets over Elvis and his swiveling hips. Congress got involved to protect our youth and with the help of Dr. Frederick Wertham Batman was branded a pedophile and Wonder Woman a bondage fetish deviant.
About 40 years ago there were riots at the Democratic National Convention over Vietnam, while the Beatle's sang of Love and the Rolling Stone's sang "Street Fighting Man"
About 30 years ago we were having Congressional Hearings over "We're Not Gonna Take it" and "Animal F#ck like a Beast".
About 15 years ago there were riots in Los Angeles following the Rodney King verdict - just two year's after the release of the Bodycount's song "Cop-Killer".
In his outrage at what the song suggested - that some brutal racist cops in LA just really needed some killin' - Moses himself, Charlton Heston took some time out from a few gun toting NRA rallies to rail against this vile irresponsible hate speech. How could anyone suggest that it might be "OK" to consider fighting back against the police? (Or to consider fighting back against a currupt government that was unable or unwilling to protect the people from it's own enforcers gone wild?)
What Anti-American CLAP-TRAP is This?
How could anyone suggest that we should consider taking up arms against the most visible agents of the government itself? Against the Police?
How could anyone agree with Alexander Hamilton in Federalist No. 28?
