Michael Moore: Burn, Baby, Burn !!!
Edited on Sat Sep-11-10 08:23 AM by marmar
So the friggin' SECRETARY OF DEFENSE took time off running all our wars to call some nutjob preacher in Florida.

And we have to witness the sissy sight of Gen. Petraeus begging from Afghanistan for this nutjob preacher not to burn a Koran.

And now the nutjob preacher is filled with delusions of grandeur that he's stopped the "Ground Zero" "mosque" from being built.

Look Secretary Gates -- and General Petraeus -- and all the rest of our pants-pissing brass: the "freedoms" you constantly say you're protecting (hahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha -- oh excuse me, I just love a good comedy line when I hear one!) include the freedom of a whacko in a state full of whackos to protest by burning something as long as that fire doesn't burn down anything else -- like his own church! Hmmmm? Oh Jesus, I beseech thee!!... No, nevermind. I got distracted. (What's really surprising is there aren't MORE preachers like this. Remember, 31% of Republicans think Obama is a Muslim.)

All I can say is, they had better build that mosque now. If a Florida bigot can get a place of worship halted because of his threats, then we are all truly doomed. All this crap about how if the Koran was burned "we'd really be hated by Muslims then!" Are you kidding me? Get outta the house and take a trip through the Arab world! THEY ALREADY HATE OUR GUTS. And not because of a stupid book burning. They hate us because we've killed hundreds of thousands of their people! We've claimed their oil as ours. Never ever forget that Saddam Hussein was armed and supported for years by the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. And WE overthrew the democratically-elected government in Iran. We continue to prop up the dictators of the Arabian peninsula and we have turned our backs on the Palestinian people. .............(more)

2. The Truth!!
Wow. Why isn't Mike or someone like him our president?

Maybe because we can't handle the TRUTH?

6. I have one and only one question...
When did teaching people to hate and to fear people of a darker skin (and different spiritual beliefs) become a religion?
