19. Maybe it takes "indecency" to expose indecent acts
Thanks, Mopaul.

20. Do Paraphrases Require Quotes?
Didn't think so. The quote is "At long last sir, have you no decency?" Just trying to help.

23. Hey, mopaul could have made it a lot worse.
Edited on Mon Nov-21-05 11:59 AM by Terran
I didn't see any blood, after all. No shortage of photos of dead Iraqi children. This one almost looks sanitized.

27. To send a message
and to get people's attention. Apparently he succeeded, no?

I do understand your concerns, but I disagree. Playing nice with these people hasn't ever worked. It's time for bluntness, as long as we speak the truth. Do you deny the essential truthfulness of the image (acknowledging the obvious that it's a metaphor)?

4. That's powerful.
Apt to ruffle a few feathers, but all too true, I'm afraid. Good work.

5. I suggested that every person in this country
take an Iraqi and slit their throat and pour their blood in your gas tank. If you can't do this, you are against the war. If you can you are for the war and should be over there fighting.


Mopaul no truer statement was ever made about this war then this...

21. I approve of this message. The truth hurts some people. But this
picture is the truth. And every American should have to look at it and see what Bu$h has really served us all up for Thanksgiving. Bu$h has not done one thing to fight the tactic of terrorism. He is the worst terrorist himself. And this photo only proves it. Thank you mopaul I needed to be reminded of why I cannot stop denouncing Bu$h and his maniac supporters.
Peace

25. Exactly, Wildman
And I believe that every Iraqi who has lost a loved one in Dubya's war of choice sees him in exactly this same way. Sometimes, the truth is painful to see, but no less true.
