6. but the tight-assed puritanical morally superior people
Edited on Wed Apr-07-04 04:11 PM by fryguy
want everything to be portrayed nice and clean. Just like their idyllic vision of America is - flashing by the windows of their SUVs at 80 miles an hour. No poverty and blight in this country, everything is just hunky-dory. No pain or death in war, just neat and clean videos of smart bombs.....

.....if it were up to me, I'd put a picture of each solider that died the previous day on the front page of every newspaper in the country. Let all Americans see first hand what the cost of this war is. I'd also add a line with a total amount of money spent and oil burned that day. Make people realize that their $3/gallon unleaded isn't at an all time high because we're not drilling in the ANWR or John Kerry voted to raise gas taxes, but because we're using so much to fight this unnecessary war and doing NOTHING to reduce our consumption and consequent dependency on oil....
