6. I think you want to
use the noun definition, not the adjective.... in "I am an_____" you need the noun. The nice thing about the noun is that in its most accurate sense, it implies the insurgent is basing his or her actions on strongly held beliefs, and thus is not a mere "belligerent."

13. Can I be a belligerent insurgent?
I happen to be a pacifist, but only because I believe the pen is mightier than the sword. I don't need bullets or bombs when I can say:

Iraq is the plate Bush's hot steaming ass has been served upon. When the world demands we USians eat humble pie, the best we can hope for is some ketchup and low interest rates. The longer we wait, the more rotten this dinner will be.

Or this:

In universe number 221 George W. Bush took the keys to his daddy's Hummer and ran over a lot of innocent people in the parking lot. Witnesses say he was trying to prove he wasn't a sissy. He was later judged incompetent to stand trial, and is now housed in a secure facility somewhere in the state of Nevada.

Or this:

In universe number seven George W. Bush went to Viet Nam and did not return. The latrine simply exploded -- cause unknown. His family has never visited The Wall, and the National Park Service reports that the only offerings left in his name have been three novelty plastic dog feces, a dead parrot, a dead frog, a dead kitten (The Secret Service says all died of natural causes), a variety of empty "coke" bottles, spoons, mirrors, etc., a broken BB gun, a jar of pickles, and a $500 Air Force toilet seat.

Or this:

It was a pretzel.

11. How about this...
in.sur.rec.tion (noun)

The act or an instance of open revolt against civil authority or a constituted government. Rebellion.

This sounds like what is going on in Iraq is a revolution. Are we there to stamp out a revolution? I think the American public is starting to wise up to what we DU'rs have known for some time now, that the whole reason for this war has been to capture Iraq and its prize, oil, for the benefit of corporate power and greed. Saddam was bad, very bad. Bush's lies and true motives are just plain evil.

No more Bush...No more Bush...No more Bush...No more Bush...No more Bush!

15. Damn right they were,
America was founded by insurgents. The Revolution was won by guerrilla warfare, bombings, hijackings (of ships and wagon convoys), etc.

Americans are insurgents. always have been. always will be.
