I am watching Baghdad ER---Fuck You George W. Bush.
This is the most heartbreaking thing I have ever seen. The most apparent thing to me is how most of the people profiled are against this illegal, unjust and immoral war. These are kids! They are dying based on a lie. Their government is sending them to die so that Halliburton and the Carlyle group can be richer. To those rat bastards who think that to support their war is to "Support the Troops" I ask one question. I support the Troops because I do not want them to die or be horribly injured and disfigured based on a lie. Do you support the troops? Rummy? Condi? Cutting the salaries and funding and medical care after they past their use by date?

Fuck You, George. Fuck You. You should be forced to watch this show on a 24/7 loop. Would it even sink in that you are responsible for this? You can lie, cheat and steal, but the world knows that you are a Failure and a useless son of a bitch. You are a War Criminal. You are my generation's Adolph Hitler. Are you proud of that? Does blood and misery make you feel good? Fuck You, George. You fill me with so much rage that I cannot even verbalise it anymore. How many more people need to die before you are satisfied?

1. the sad fact is, I think that * and all his cohorts are so sick, so twiste
that they actually get off on the suffering and misery and horror they have created. if you watch any of them, you can tell that they get excited talking about death and destruction. the chimperor can only manage complete, coherent sentences when he is talking about violence. our country is run by a group of lunatic sadists.

8. The visual of Roman emporers and city-folk enjoying Christians
being eaten alive by hungry lions comes to mind.

2. Sannum I saw it a couple of weeks ago and it broke my heart...
These young men and women are receiving some of the best medical care in the world....and the tradgedy is they shouldn't be there....

The doctors and the nurses are the other victims....most of them are from Reserve units and they will attempt to go back home and fit in and they will suffer too....

* is our Generations Hitler...and I am tired of people saying don't use the comparison...if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck it must be a duck...

Rant on my friend..Rant on..

7. The parallels to Hitler are astonishing.
Edited on Thu Jun-08-06 09:39 PM by Sannum
I have no problem comparing it, even if the looks I get are those of offense and astonishment. It is true.

I can't even begin to say how much I hate these people.

4. I saw Baghdad ER, too
and was filled with rage against Bush. Such a horrible, horrible waste.
And this show is just the tip of the iceberg for what our troops face.
For every soldier blown up, there are hundreds of Iraqi citizens facing
the same thing.

What a senseless waste.

5. It's brutal. Bushco should have to spend 24 hours in that ER.
They should all be forced to stand there and watch what their fucked up decisions have done to these men and women.

13. I watched parts of it, too . . .
and all I kept thinking was "what a waste . . . what an unholy waste of young lives" . . .

and don't forget that the Iraqi landscape remains contaminated with depleted uranium dust and strewn with cluster bombs just waiting for kids to start tossing around . . .

someone must pay for these atrocities . . .
