Iraqi militants make fun of Bush's "Bring 'em on!!!!" speech....
From the NY Daily News
1/13/05

<snip>
...miltants fired a new psychological salvo in the war, hoping to demoralize U.S. troops by releasing a video in English mocking President Bush for a taunting call he made in July 2003 telling insurgents to "bring 'em on."

"George W. Bush, you have asked us to 'bring it on.' And so help me, like you never expected," the tape threatens. "Do you have another challenge?"

Issuing a message in English was a new tactic for the Iraqi rebels...

1. Let's correct these insurgents
It should be "Bring Him On"

Him, of course, being King George.

7. Corrections needed...
First the line should be:

"And so help me, we will like you never expected."

Another suggested correction:
We need to stop accepting the BushCo's framing of the people who are fighting. They are not some nameless "insurgents." They are Iraqi citizens rebelling against foreign occupation. What else could they POSSIBLY be fighting for? They are not defending the WMDs or Saddam - so what else except the presence of foreign soldiers on their soil?
