"They hate us for our freedom!" Remember that line from the Bush Admin echoed by the

[TeamProg]

GOP and conservatives after 911 ?

The terrorists hate us for our freedoms.. since then?

Conservatives and Republicans have taken away our individual freedoms and have banned or squelched:

Abortion
Books
Bodily autonomy
Sex education
Climate change awareness
Transgender rights
Gay rights
Labor rights and more.

1. Right-wing thinking: "If we don't have freedom, they won't hate us anymore!"

[TeamProg]

3. Ha ha ha... Um. No freedom to love. They're sick. nt

9. That was my thought when GWB said that.

"They hate us for our freedom." So, we'll just take your freedom away from you, and they won't have any more reason to hate us. Thence followed the Patriot Act and the KGWB* (aka Dept. of Homeland Security).


(*The new agency reminded me of the old Soviet KGB, and since GWB was behind it, it made sense to meld the two together and call it the "KGWB".)

2. Been saying this exact thing...

For months if not years. Bears repeating.

8. Now be a good little puppet!

Said the "small gubment" gang.

[patphil]

11. Don't forget voting rights.

[Matthew28]

13. The cold truth is

The republicans and the conservatives literally have the same aims as the taliban and the islamic state. To impose their religion on everyone and to force a strict rigid life based on it. There's no room for freedom.

[usonian]

14. Because "freedom" to them means the complete absence of regulations,

social restraints and responsibilities.

Per order of their oligarch masters who despise having to make non-toxic, non-explosive products, and per order of racists who hate laws against discrimination and violence against others.

Freedom to deny freedom, and at the same time, to be stomped by the industrialists and techno-sociopaths who cater to their hate while picking their pockets and eliminating their jobs and futures.

Batteries.



And happy in their dream world.

[TeamProg]

15. You are on it! Freedom to exploit, plender, rape, spoil, exhaust and then walk away from the

damage without paying.

[usonian]

16. I want one thing: everything.

[Initech]

17. Education in general!

With the way the right wing religious psychopaths are infecting our school boards.

[reymega life]

18. UM we were attacked by muslim fundamentalists and we united afterwards

the USA CHANTS at the yankees game as deafening and seeing the president throw the first pitch was heartwarming.

[TeamProg]

19. But the terrorists didn't "hate for us our freedom" and that is my point. They hated us for

interfering in their way of life and for manipulating their governments for our private corporate benefits.

Bush used the attack to then attack the WRONG country = Iraq, and ruining the lives of American soldiers families and peaceful Iraqis. Setting up a sham Iraqi gov't all the while claiming that the U.S. shouldn't be "nation builders"..

The Bush Admin PLANTED fake stories about yellow cake and WMDs in the media and then pointed at those stories AS HARD EVIDENCE that Iraq posed a threat. And with the help of N Y Times Judith Miller, the Bush admin outed then CIA agent / U.S. spy Valerie Plame whose husband was a threat to the Bush Admin's dishonesty. FUCK SHRUB! He should've gone to the Hague for war crimes.

My god, you don't remember that crap????!!!
