I HOPE IT'S YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS THAT DIE

"I HOPE IT'S YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS THAT DIE" - US Representative Dana Rohrabacker
By US Army Reserves Colonel (Retired) Ann Wright, AfterDowningStreet.org
http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/node/21501

<skip>

Rohrabacher said if European countries did not cooperate with the United States and go along with whatever the Bush administration wanted, they were condemning their countrymen to death by not using extralegal methods to imprison terrorist suspects. When citizens attending the hearing, including members of Codepink Women for Peace and Veterans for Peaceard Rohrabacher's statement, they collectively groaned. Then, much to the shock and disbelief of everyone in the hearing room, Rorhbacker said to those who had expressed displeasure at his statements:

"I hope it's your family members that die when terrorists strike."

At that point, I had had enough of Rohrabacher. I stood up and said "I did not serve 29 years in the US military and 16 years in the US diplomatic corps to see demise of the rule of law and violation of our own laws. Rohrback's statements are outrageous. No wonder the world hates us!"

Chairman Delahunt gaveled for me to stop speaking and I was escorted by the police out of the committee room. I was not arrested.

Remarkably, I do agree with one thing Rohrabacker said. "They hate us."

Rohrabacker finished his sentence with "They hate us because they hate our way of life." Unfortunately, many people do hate us, but it's not for our way of life.

Its for exactly the talk and actions that Rohrabacker and the Bush administration represent: illegal and unlawful actions, an arrogant attitude that America is always right and everyone else is wrong, that the world's resources are for the exclusive use of the United States and we have the right to invade and occupy any country."

Until we change the manner in which Presidential administrations and the Congress operate and the way we approach our membership in the community of nations, the world will continue to question what America stands for.

About the Author: Ann Wright retired as a Colonel after serving 13 years on active duty and 16 years in the US Army Reserves. After 16 years in the US diplomatic corps, she resigned in March, 2003 in opposition to the war on Iraq. She had been assigned in Nicaragua, Grenada, Somalia, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Sierra Leone, Micronesia and Mongolia. She helped reopen the US Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan in December, 2001.

My chin dropped to the floor.

[Kikosexy2]

122. Dana...

[BlooInBloo]

[proud2BlibKansan]

60. Oh thank you so much!

I am at work and can't watch it here - damn. As soon as I get home, I can't wait to see this.

[Tom Joad]

127. This needs to be edited out, and put on YouTube!!

Those that have the technology, please do so as soon as possible. May it be the bigger than the alec baldwin voicemail.

[mdmc]

2. God , I love my political party

The other side is filled with loonies....

[Art_from_Ark]

86. Now all the GOP has to do is get some campaign buttons like this

[YOY]

120. Don't insult the late Lord Sutch

Many of the progressive ideas he brought up made sense and were implemented oddly enough.

3. She was on the O'Liely Craptor a couple weeks back

He had the audacity to cut her mic after she asked him how much time he served. I love this woman.

[proud2BlibKansan]

13. Ann is a shero to me.

[liberal N proud]

4. A US Representative said that?

SICK! SICK! SICK!

[proud2BlibKansan]

14. Rohrbacker, a republican from CA

[ROakes1019]

5. that hearing

I stayed up until four in the morning watching that hearing and then I had nightmares. My god, Rorbacher is pathetic. Does he look a bit deformed in the head to you?

[proud2BlibKansan]

15. Yes and his brain isn't functioning either

[rasputin1952]

6. What an incredibly stupid thing to say!

Jeez, what a moran...

[proud2BlibKansan]

16. And damnit, where's the media?

[Phillycat]

30. Oh god, can you imagine if this had been a Dem?

We wouldn't even be hearing about Virginia Tech right now!

[proud2BlibKansan]

31. Especially since there were Code Pinkers there!

[rasputin1952]

40. It is incredible to think that something like this would just be

shunted off to a siding by the media. This has to be one of the most incredibly stupid things a congresscritter ever said.

Sure hope those in his district people pick that up, it is an outrage, and people should be standing in line to slap him for being so dense...

[proud2BlibKansan]

45. What's his district?

What are the newspapers there?

[rasputin1952]

47. I don't know...I'm in NE, he's from that "liberal bastion" CA...

maybe he spent too much time in Ernest and Julio Gallo's winery...

[Solly Mack]

7. wow...damn

[ends_dont_justify]

8. lol, I misread the topic title as personal at first

But I think it's even more of a shock to me that an official said this, rather than a person on an internet forum. Very good way to get people to see just how psycho some of these officials are...

[proud2BlibKansan]

17. Oh sorry

I hope your family members all live long and prosper.

[The Count]

9. The level of Weiner/Savage who told a caller: "I hope you get AIDS and die"

They are subhuman thugs.

[vireo]

10. Don't forget O'Reilly

O'Reilly to San Francisco: "If Al Qaeda comes in here and blows you up, we're not going to do anything about it. ... You want to blow up the Coit Tower? Go ahead"

11. These fuggers are evil

Good fugging grief.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

18. Dana Ramboacher doing his usual blustering - appropriate to Jr. High School boys rooms.

All he lacks is the acne and the erection.

[0rganism]

25. these days, your average jr. high student could be suspended for saying that

Maybe Rep. Rohrbacher needs to take some vacation, spend a little time with his family.... just a thought.

[Sweet Freedom]

27. Oh come on!

For all you know, he could have acne AND an erection.

(or should it be )

[NI4NI]

20. any video of this for KO or The Daily Show?

The diseased bastard needs to be publically exposed and humiliated, if not brought up in front of the ethics comittee and censured.

[proud2BlibKansan]

26. I would hope so

We need to spread this far and wide.

[proud2BlibKansan]

72. That file is now 404ing

Did it already get pulled?

On edit: the other links seem to be working.

[bagrman]

107. We need to get proactive and get things like this on U-Tube for posterity.

[proud2BlibKansan]

108. What other link?

There are two here and I can't get either one to open on my computer. GRRR

[NI4NI]

75. thank you, appreciate it!

[NNguyenMD]

21. any chance anyone get this on audio or video? if so I will be the first to mail it everywhere

[slowry]

22. That is fucking

METAL

RORH....BACKER! RORH....BACKER! RORH....BACKER!
RORH....RHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!
*MINDLESS SPAGHETTI STRINGED GUITAR SOLO*
HEILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL









sorry .

[ceile]

23. Absolutely horrifying!

How does someone come to be so full of hate?!

[Breeze54]

24. What a cockroach!

Typical scumbag war pig! He needs to go!

[theboss]

28. Is there any actual, like, proof of that statement?

Dana is an asshat, but I find it hard to imagine a Rep saying that during a hearing. They usually are not politically suicidal.

[proud2BlibKansan]

29. I trust Ann Wright implicitly

She wrote the article. I also trust David Swanson, who owns the website where it is posted. So yes, I am positive it is true.

[theboss]

34. Okay...I know none of these people

So, again, I ask: Is there any proof of this statement?

[proud2BlibKansan]

37. Ann Wright:

Mary Ann Wright (born 1947) is a retired United States Army colonel, retired official of the U.S. State Department, and now full-time anti-war activist.
Wright is most noted for being one of three U.S. State Department officials to publicly resign in direct protest of the invasion of Iraq in March, 2003.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Wright

http://www.swingthevote.us/wright.html

Are you not part of the peace movement? She is actually very well known.

David Swanson:
David Swanson is the Washington Director of Democrats.com and of ImpeachPAC.org. He is co-founder of the AfterDowningStreet.org / CensureBush.org coalition, creator of MeetWithCindy.org and KatrinaMarch.org, and a board member of Progressive Democrats of America.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Swanson

[theboss]

49. They sound like neat people

Any proof of the statement that is not hearsay?

[proud2BlibKansan]

50. She was there

She is not making this up.

[theboss]

53. It's still hearsay

I hope it's true because I would love to Dana turned into a national joke.

But if you are going to make this kind of accusation, you had better be ready to back it up.

[proud2BlibKansan]

62. I am not making any accusation

I posted an article written by my friend Ann Wright. And I resent your questions about her credibility.

The video link has been posted. If you were nicer, I would paste it here but I am going to let you look for it.

[StarryNite]

43. It's not

political suicide if you are a republican.

[The Wizard]

79. Kind of like bragging

about having sex with Ann Coulter.
Qualifications to be a Republican today: sociopath with thought disorders and loose associations.

[colorado_ufo]

131. Re: Ann Coulter locker room brags -

ROFLMAO! I need to compose myself!

And, the rest of your post is right-on, as well.

[Initech]

32. Wow,. I knew that Roarbacher was a huge douchebag, but damn!!!

What a fucking idiot! I hope he loses his seat because of this.

[LaStrega]

87. if Gonzales is any indication ...

Dana's job is secure.

Stoooopid republicants.

[LeftishBrit]

33. God almighty, what a thing to say

That's just one step away from a terrorist's mentality: "If you don't act as I want, I'll kill your family" becomes "If you don't act as I want, I hope Those Others will kill your family!"

Whatever became of a greater president's saying, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself"? These Republicans seem to want to instil as much 'fear itself' as possible, so as to help them control people.

[CGowen]

96. It's terror when you use the common definition

Most definitions of terrorism include only those acts which are intended to create fear or "terror", are perpetrated for an ideological goal (as opposed to a "madman" attack), and deliberately target "non-combatants".


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorism



What does he know about the next attack?

[Oilwellian]

35. Dana would know about terrorists

He helped train them:

[Kajsa]

36. Rohrabacher never ceases to amaze me.

This went way over the line.

It's a waste of time to write to him.

Unfortunately, he's my congressman!

[proud2BlibKansan]

38. I am so sorry

He is so bad.

[Kajsa]

73. Thanks!

We keep trying to get good Dems. in that seat.

But OC is still a heavy Repub. Central.

One of these days- we'll make it.

[Mad_Dem_X]

104. Please accept my condolences. n/t

[Kajsa]

110. Thanks!

[republicansarewhores]

39. O'Lielly had the nerve to denigrate Wright also...

From Crooks and Liars:

"Bill O'Reilly abuses and cuts the mic of retired Colonel Ann Wright, 29-year veteran of the US Army, after she refuses to fall victim to his leading, dishonest questions and smear tactics. Apparently in Bill's demented world, criticizing the actions of President Bush in explicitly violating international law — something Col. Wright spent years teaching — constitutes "blaming" America."

Video link here:

Why Does Bill O’Reilly Hate Our Troops and American Values?

It's unf*ckingbelievable what Billo gets away with.

RAW

[rasputin1952]

42. I may be mistaken, but I thnk O'Reilly has a finacial stake in his

programming. If he, like some others, are their own production companies, they can get away w/all kinds of stuff.

These guys have a pretty good grasp of the way the media globs all over them because they bring in revenue.

[Bucky]

41. This Col. Ann Wright deserves to be in the terrorist hall of fame...

right next to James Madison, Tom Paine, Patrick Henry, and Samuel Adams. Forcing the government that protects us from a malevolent world to follow a set of prescriptive rules about what they can't do without some judge's permission is absolutely insane! What if there's a ticking atomic bomb at your virgin daughter's Sweet 16 party? What are you going to do then, Mr Fancy Shmancy surrender donkey? Sit around singing "Kumbaya, My Lord"?

hmmm, this rant needs editing... or more cowbell

[proud2BlibKansan]

44. So you disagree with her?

Hard to tell.

[Bucky]

64. No, I just wish I'd been invited to that Sweet 16 party

(on edit: you got that first joke, didn't you?)

[TheMadMonk]

85. As I've said to others. Spend less time on FR.

When you need a blood dripping icon to recognise sarcasm, it's obvious that you're suffering second hand koolaid exposure.

[LaStrega]

88. HA!

Assuming you mean "Free Republic" ohmygosh do I have a story concerning FR.

My (now ex-)husband introduced me to Free Republic. After two posts, I was promptly banned. I'm okay with that. But my (!) those loony republicants are not open to free (let alone intelligent and informed) speech. All I did was point out some obvious messing with the facts (kinda like how Fox News originally reported that Foley was a Democrat pfffft!) and *poof* I was gone. Again, I'm okay with that. I wish now, though, I'd taken a bit of a lighter stance, as I'd love to still be getting some panties (and/or boxer shorts) in a bunch there.

p.s. he's "Spruce" on FR. Give 'im hell. I know I do.

(edit: changed brackets to parenthesis to indicate husband is now EX-)

[rasputin1952]

92. Welcome to DU LaStrega...

As for posting on FR, I got one off and was banned. That was several years ago, but it was worth calling them out for their insipid discussions and "interesting" thought patterns...

[LaStrega]

146. Many thanks and glad to be here / meetcha

[proud2BlibKansan]

101. Excuse me?

[windy252]

46. If someone could put a video of this on Youtube,

that would be very helpful.

I know that's what I did.

70. If I had

103. Damnit I can't get that to open on my computer

Hopefully Crooks and Liars will put it up soon.

54. What's in the Republican water these days?

Rohrbacher does this and McCain sings "Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb-Bomb Iran."

[kenny blankenship]

56. Is this some statement from Notorious Cho or an elected Representative from the USCongress speaking?

Hard to tell.

[merh]

59. Someone please explain to me why Dubai

has yet to be attacked by terrorists?

Isn't it the most westernized, gawdy display of wealth and excess that exists on this earth today?

Doesn't it fly in the face of all that the lunatics touting the "war on terror" try to make us believe?

Wouldn't the terrorists (if they truly hate us for our way of life, our freedoms) want to blow that "americanized" city off the face of the earth if terrorism really was an issue?

Dana Rohrabacker needs his head examined as do all that voted for him to sit in the house.

[The Wizard]

105. Head examined?

How about 50,000 volts across the frontal lobes?

[merh]

111. would 50,000 volts be enough?

[arcane1]

132. it should be enough to kill his one and only neuron n/t

[merh]

143. LOL

good point

[Dukkha]

65. not at all surprised

this is exactly why America is, justifiably so, the most hated nation on Earth. This country reputation is ruined by the violent bullying mindless thugs that ran it into the ground.

[Madspirit]

66. K&R...n/t

[KingFlorez]

68. What a hateful statement

Wishing death on someone's family because you disagree with them is just about one of the worst things you can do. It also says a lot about what kind of person this man is, it's pretty insane to say something like that.

[Cass]

69. Holy cow. This is absolutely incredible.

71. Kick and Rec n/t

74. Funny, Rohrabacker both trained and politically supported the Taliban ....

Congressman Dana Rohrabacher (right)
training mujahideen in Afghanistan in 1988.


Rohrabacker today

http://www.answers.com/topic/dana-rohrabacher
<snip>
In the November/December 1996 issue of Washington Report on Middle East Affairs, Rohrabacher was reported as saying that the Taliban were not terrorists or revolutionaries, that they would develop a disciplined society that would leave no room for terrorists, and that the Taliban posed no threat to the United States.<15>

However, in a September 11, 1998 editorial in the The Washington Post, Rohrabacher strongly rebuked the Taliban for providing refuge to Osama bin Laden, mass killings of Shi'ites and ethnic Uzbeks, Turks, and Tajiks, and restrictions on the rights of Afghan women and children:

It has been no secret that bin Laden has been sheltered by the Taliban. The Clinton administration was mute while one of the most violent anti-Western Muslim sects spilled into Afghanistan from their Pakistan-based "religious schools" and took control of the capital. We remained paralyzed while they moved to destroy moderate Muslim forces. While administration officials expressed concern of the Taliban's complete denial of rights for women, it was little more than lip service. Even modest support from the United States for moderate Muslim forces in Afghanistan and serious political pressure on Pakistan could have thwarted the takeover of this strategically important country by these militant extremists. The danger of the spread of fanaticism expressed by the newly independent republics of Central Asia was smugly ignored.

During the summer of 2001, Rohrabacher made a trip to Qatar that was paid for by the Islamic Institute and the Government of Qatar, according to Rohrabacher’s financial disclosure forms. While in Qatar, Rohrabacher, Grover Norquist, and Khaled Saffuri met with Taliban Foreign Minister Mullah Wakil Ahmed Muttawakil. Wakil reportedly asked for help in increasing the amount of foreign aid sent by the United States to Afghanistan, apparently in exchange for U.S. oil company UNOCAL being allowed to construct of an oil pipeline through Afghanistan. If Rohrabacher was conducting diplomacy, he was in violation of the Logan Act, which prohibits citizens from doing so if not in an official capacity. Rohrabacher told wire service reporters who were present in Doha, Qatar at the time that he had discussed a “peace plan” with the Taliban. But Norquist, a close associate of Rohrabacher, said that the meeting happened accidentally and that it included Rohrabacher yelling at them about blowing up the Buddhist statues in Afghanistan.<16>

The Taliban later announced in Kabul that it had rejected what it considered were unreasonable demands by the U.S. side. Rohrabacher’s staff would not answer questions about the Taliban talks. <17>

After the September 11, 2001 attacks, Rohrabacher claimed that the attacks were due to incompetence on the part of the Clinton administration. <18>

77. We are witnessing the final shrieks of the dying elephant.

How pathetic their rhetoric has become. They are reduced to the rantings of Bush, "Bomb. bomb. bomb" McCain, Gonzo's lying. and this clown. Making themselves irrelevant seems to be happening at an accelerated pace.

[LaStrega]

89. Agreed!

They're driving themselves into the ground, all by themselves ... not surprisingly. Wish it would've been recognized by the American people a half-decade ago, though.

[EFerrari]

98. Welcome to DU, happygoluckytoyou.

I will write to this embarrassment to my state.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

84. Rohrabacher is scum

I often envision him marching around in one of those German helmets in full SS garb. A better fascist you could not imagine.

[EFerrari]

93. You're righter than you know. This POS is working with Duncan Hunter

and the CA Office of Homeland Sekurity to bring Blackwater to Potrero -- I believe east of San Diego. One of the top guys in that office is a former lobbyist for Blackwater.

CSPAN aired this hearing. It was disgusting at every level. They were talking about KIDNAPPING and TORTURE with smiles on their faces. Rorhbacher was not the only scumbag in that chamber. He was just among the most disgusting ones.

[Swamp Rat]

90. k&r

[camero]

94. Then he should go fight them..literally

He probably opted out of any military service. I sure the hell wouldn't send my son or daughter off to die for his greed.

[VotingVet]

99. He didn't opt out of military service, my friend

This turkey actually helped train the mujahadeen -- who later emerged as the Taliban -- who, of course, provided safe harbor to Al Qareda. He did more than train them, too. As the photo of him posted elsewhere suggests, he fought side by side with them -- against the Soviets, true. But, hey, it's like helping child rapists in a gang fight against mother rapists.

He could save a little bit of his bacon if he holds a presser and tearfully apologizes for losing his temper and saying things that no decent human being would say.

Anyone holding your breath?

[xxqqqzme]

142. he never served a day. His father David

was highly decorated however. When you walk into this POS's office there is a shadow box w/ a purple heart & some other medals (I don't know what they are, I'm illiterate when it comes to that sort of thing). There is a brass plate etched 'D. Rohrabacher' on the frame. He wants you to think those are his medals. Then on your left is a larger than life enlargement (it serves as wall paper covering one wall)of dana & his taliban buddies in Afghanistan. He is playing dress-up as he is decked out in robes & headgear.

During '4 election cycle, I attended a debate w/ him & the other candidates. The first thing out of his mouth @ any time he speaks is his praise for st ronnie defeating the Soviet Union. Only this time he said it the place erupted in laughter. His face got red, he started shaking his finger at us, yelling that we were ingrates and had no sense of history - which only made this mostly college age crowd laugh even more. I was hoping he would explode, he was sooo mad.

[EFerrari]

95. Michael Scheuer, formerly of the CIA, also deserves dishonorable mention

for similar comments that displayed a complete lack of moral compass.

106. Wrong. We don't hate America - we hate the policies of Bush.

But we are losing patience.

I thought about the title. This is how it came to me in an email. I just couldn't come up with anything more appropriate.
