Last Comic Standing - ACTION MESSAGE

Since the GD Forum is shut down - maybe this will get enough traffic - I don't know how many of you watched the Last Comic Standing last night but the first comic - Ralphie May (HUGE - HUGE white guy) his skit was how he wanted "cheap gas" and we should "light them all up" in order to get it. I found this skit so offensive I wanted to scream. I wrote NBC-Last Comic Standing a letter - and if any of you feel the same way - I urge you to do so also. He got a standing ovation (which just shows the pathetic mindset of America today). I told them this skit belongs in a redneck club or a club for the galatically stupid as we are killing innocent Iraqi's everyday as well as our soldiers are dying so that fat ass can have cheap gas. My fear - is he might win.

KNOWEST NOT THINE ENEMY?


By Carl F. Worden

One of the most memorable lines from the movie, "The Patriot" was spoken by actor Mel Gibson, who asked, "Why should I trade one tyrant 3,000 miles away, for 3,000 tyrants one mile away?"

The question was asked by Gibson's character during deliberations depicted in the movie to authorize a levy to support the Colonies' war of independence against King George and his army.

I often wonder what the average brain-dead, flag waving crazy American considers to be "The Enemy" these days.

Back during the build-up to the actual Revolutionary War, our Founding Fathers had no illusions whatsoever as to whom the enemy was, nor did they have any reservations in deciding what to do about them.

Back then, the enemy was King George, his troops, and the American Loyalists, who considered the Crown to be the rightful American government, while individuals like James Madison, Thomas Jefferson and George Washington saw the same tyranny and oppression they thought they had left behind, coming right back at them when they settled in America.

The Founding Fathers, and all those who fought for their freedom in the Revolutionary War, didn't sit around like a bunch of cowardly Christian pansies, writing letters and protesting, while urging the masses to pray for their leaders. No, once they realized their peaceful options had been exhausted, they issued a Declaration of Independence, signed their lives and fortunes away, and started killing the King's men. They also hanged quite a few Loyalists for treason. Let that be a lesson to you who call yourselves American Patriots this day.

If you place yourself in the mindset of the average American Loyalist in those early days, you would have regarded yourself as a true-blue American Crown patriot, while those who promoted revolt to secure freedom and a Republican form of government, would be regarded as extremists, potential terrorists and outright traitors.

We have that exact same situation in America today, except for one thing: This time, the enemy lives just one mile away. Often less.

Today's American Loyalists stand on the curb waving an American flag, roundly in support of American soldiers and a government engaged in yet another undeclared, and therefore unconstitutional American war. It logically follows that the soldiers and their officers also obeyed illegal orders to attack Afghanistan and Iraq.

Please forgive me if I find it difficult to completely sympathize with our troops and their officers, who now find themselves in a quagmire of death and misery in Iraq. I find it difficult, because I know those same officers and soldiers would follow similar illegal orders to shoot American citizens if ordered to do so today right here in America. They will deny it, but if ordered to do so, our American soldiers will open fire on American citizens if ordered. I know too many career officers who have told me that the rules have changed, and that they are to obey all orders no matter what, and let the chips fall where they may.

Just ask former Army Specialist Michael New, who refused to wear illegal and unconstitutional U.N. insignia on his U.S. military uniform. Like Jesus, he was right, but our military establishment crucified him anyway. If you support that American military action, then you are The Enemy.

I must once again remind everyone that our domestic law enforcement officers, judges and prosecutors, our soldiers and their officers, the president and every member of Congress are sworn to uphold and defend the CONSTITUTION of the United States. They do NOT swear to uphold and defend the GOVERNMENT of the United States. Read that again, and get it straight in your mind.

If the government is in compliance with the Constitution, then no conflict exists. But if the government is in blatant violation of the Constitution, which it unequivocally and irrefutably is at this time, then anyone who supports that government has become The Enemy as well. You Bush lovers are government Loyalists, and you are therefore domestic enemies of the people and the Constitution of the United States.

President George W. Bush, heretofore known as King George II, has blatantly violated his sworn oath to God to support and defend the Constitution of the United States by arbitrarily and unilaterally stripping several American citizens of their most basic civil rights on the mere suspicion that they were engaged in the activities of an "enemy combatant".

NOTHING in the Constitution allows an American citizen to be stripped of his basic civil rights. Nothing. There is no provision giving the Executive Branch such powers, therefore this president has become The Enemy of the people of the United States by giving such an order.

By executive order, this president ordered several American citizens held indefinitely without charges being filed, without access to legal counsel, and without being given the opportunity to face their unidentified accusers. Further, the government agents that arrested these citizens have not been forced to present the evidence they allegedly have against them. If you support this president and this government's blatantly unconstitutional actions, then you are The Enemy of the people of the United States.

If you support this government's war on Iraq on the basis that Saddam "had to go" without a congressional declaration of war, then you are an enemy of the United States. As a citizen, you have abrogated your solemn American duty to, at the very least, protest such an action.

Most of you fellow American scum bags did not.

I just watched a program on the Discovery Channel, which detailed a failed mission by a B-1 bomber to kill Saddam Hussein. A building in a residential district of Baghdad was targeted and bombed by four, two thousand pound "Smart Bombs". Saddam, if he was ever there, escaped unscathed, while 14 Iraqi citizens were killed.

In case you Loyalist American scum bag psychopaths missed the obvious, that is 14 human beings like you and me, who were needlessly killed, who looked forward to marriage, who looked forward to a life of happiness, who looked forward to making a better life for themselves and their families. That was just 14 human beings in that incident alone, who just wanted to live a full life, and who knows how many family survivors, children and wives and husbands and grandparents mourned in excruciating sorrow and grief for their loss.

You American Loyalist flag waving crazies didn't give a rat's rump about it. After, all, Iraqis aren't real human beings, right? There is a special place in Hell awaiting you Loyalist flag-wavers - I promise you that.

All the moderator mentioned was that 14 civilians were killed in that attack. Nothing more. They weren't human beings with the same hopes and aspirations for a full life like you and me here in America. No, these were simply Iraqi citizens in the wrong place at the wrong time. Too bad, so sad.

You see, with enemies like you fine American citizens right here in the United States, we don't need the likes of Hussein and bin Laden - not even a Hitler, a Stalin or a Pol Pot. You have proven to be a greater threat to the security and integrity of the United States and the people of the world, than any overtly hostile nation ever could be.

Back when our troops liberated the Nazi death camps toward the end of World War Two, the American officers surveying the carnage were so outraged that they forced the local German townspeople to come to the sight and help bury the dead.

The American officers knew damn well that those German townspeople were aware of what was going on in the death camp, and did nothing, so they rubbed their noses in it like you would a puppy who errantly soiled your floor.

You Loyalist Americans are the bane and the degradation of everything our Founding Fathers fought and died for. You are not American patriots by any measure. You are craven cowards, and worse: You are like those brown-nosed conscripts of the schoolyard bully who torments the most weak among you, while you stand alongside them, hoping their torment will not be turned towards you.

That is exactly who you are, and you don't even realize that YOU are the worst possible enemy of this nation.

.. so hopefully it was just a courtesy thing to all of them for making it that far. Let's hope

but if you noticed - Ralphie's was very loud and almost everyone - while the others did not seem to get everyone up off their feet and the clapping and laughter were not nearly as much.

we'll tonight... :-)

At votenbc.com until Midnight EDT tonight.

I'm sure they'd all vote for Ralphie because they support his political statment. :eyes:

but I think Ralpee was actually being sarcastic. He busts himself a lot. So look at it this way. A 500 pound cowboy from Texas screaming for cheap oil. He is busting his fat, Lazy image and American culture. Thats why he was so over the top. I actually think its brilliant. Comedy this way about war for oil brings the premise that the war WAS about oil to the common person. It sinks in and becomes a common opinion.

I heard a couple of redneck guys in the audience hollor "Yeah!" after those statements.

I really didn't take it that way and NORMALLY I am pretty good at scarcasim - when he talked about the protestors all being rich - nothing to do people who protested the cutting down of trees for paper - and then said then they USE paper to carry their protest signs - I don't know - it ALL hit me the wrong way. But then he did say - they get in their Surban (sp?) - I know that was a slam but to me he made the protestors sound like stupid, whiney, rich do-nothings. You may be right - but ya know what??? If people think its funny that we went to war for oil so they can have cheap gas - its still just pathetic.....

The hicks lapping it up look like idiots.

Ever see the movie "A few good Men" The ending Tom Cruise gets Nickolson to Admit the code red "Your GOd Damn right I did!!!" You can do the same with Comedy. Thats the beauty of Humor you have all these people who support the war because of WMD basically admiting its about Oil with there laughter. You'll never change those rednecks minds about the war, but how does a moderate with a conscience who actually believed in the reasons for war react when they see the true believers admiting the oil connection was the reasons for war.

:hi: - and I agree 100%!!! Sucks!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope maybe a few of you will take time to send them an e-mail - if we don't - THEY WON'T GET IT!!!!
