Protests

It seems like as much as I am sick to death of all this crap about Iraq and people who think that their opinions on the whole thing matter, that I can’t get away from it.

So today college and high school students decided to walk out of classes and march around and wave signs and hope that people saw them. This, they say, it their way to “get their point across and be heard.”

I think the thing that pisses me off the most about all of this is something I’ve stated before. It seems everyone has an opinion, and everyone thinks they know the best way to deal with the situation. Although they aren’t privy to all of the most recent and most classified intelligence information, they think that they are well-enough informed to have a valid opinion.

You know, I think I have a question for all these people who suddenly feel the need to find their ways onto the news, and radio stations, and such in order to voice their opposition to what we are doing. The question is, “If you know so much and think that you can handle the situation better by doing it your way, why the hell didn’t you run for office?!”

Anywhose, these people piss me off like you wouldn’t believe. I drive around and they’re standing on overpasses with their little “Say no to war” signs and they think they’re being patriotic. They think they’re doing something important and think they’re making a difference, and all their doing is making asses out of themselves. No one who has any control over how world events are going to transpire are paying attention to them. Their uninformed cries are falling on deaf ears.

There was an editorial in the Wall Street Journal today that was written by a man in Northern Iraq. He talked about some of the conditions and all the crap that those people have to live under every day because of Saddam and his thugs. He then talked about what the Iraqi people thought of Bush. Do you know what they call him? They call him names like “Savior”, “The Liberator of Iraq” and names like that. These people are ready and waiting get out from under the boot of this dick who has used them and abused them for so long.

I can’t wait to see when we do finally go in. I can’t wait till we cut all this political foreplay and just go at it. I can’t wait until we DO find the weapons that we’ve been saying over and over are really there (and yes, they are probably buried beneath hospitals and mosques, which the “inspectors” haven’t been to). I can’t wait to watch the Iraqi people welcoming liberation like the French (surrender-monkeys though they may be) did when we came marching into Paris in World War II.

I can’t wait until all this stuff comes up and all these idiots get it rubbed in their faces.

“The dust has finally settled on this field of human clay

Just enough light has shown though

To tell the night from the day

We are incomplete and hollow

For our maker has gone away.”
