Is this too offensive? (Warning! Extremely Rude!)

I posted this on my blog (link is under the burning bush), but I'm having second thoughts about it.

I made it this morning in a fit of anger.

I trust the opinions of my fellow DUers! it's not too late to delete the blog entry, as well as this post.

Please advise.

1. Oooooooo....

I dunno, how shit do you wanna take? There's at least three different ways to offend someone there. FWIW, I find it somewhat humorous, in a very dark way, but I can also see why someone could get really PO'd over that ... the torture thing, the Terri thing, the religion thing....

6. Be my guest, O Brave One!

Usually, I have no qualms about offending people, but for some reason, this photoshopping project just seemed a bit over the line, even for me!

I think my reservations lie in the fact that Terri S. can't defend herself.

4. Go for it.

Yes, it is offensive. But it makes the point you want to make in a very effective way. Go ahead, if you aren't afraid to take the heat.

I like it.

7. Yah, its offensive. Not that I care.

I'm sure you will get some shit about it. The Abu pic really distracts from the other message. Now if you had strings on Terri herself that would be REALLY offensive, but would make more sense. IMHO Of course the fundies would hunt you down, prolly.

8. Yes, that's rude

but I like it!

Remember, you're dealing with intellectually dishonest, mentally deficient, emotionally crippled, morally degenerate, willfully deluded neo-con scum. Logic and thinking doesn't work with these people. :dunce:

9. did you hear drudge last night?

you want offensive? He actually played an audio tape of Terri "trying to talk" over and over. It was disgusting. A few gutteral moans over the prompts from her father with a microphone in front of her face. Hideous.

12. I don't care that it's offensive...but it doesn't make the point well

For the record, I hate that our national pols are wasting their time on this Schiavo issue, which has been playing out for years now. To see DUHbya fly back to Washington just to sign this bill, while he sticks his fingers in his ears about the plights of millions of citizens in other matters where he has heightened their suffering and/or caused their deaths, really sux...the...big...one.
