		<description>&quot;whatever happened to BLT anyway?

I heard a rumour he was chased away because someone stole his name. Is that right?&quot;

		<description>&quot;As they say at LGF...&quot;

Stop right there, slappy.

You just used what may well be the most piss-poor attempt at a qualifying statement that you could ever have tried.

I think whatever the Loathsome Gangrenous Fucktards have to say is pretty much null-and-void during any attempt at intelligent discourse

Seriously, how often does one invite lobotomy patients and acephalics to any real debate?  Are there rhetorical points to be scored for being the fastest loser to overflow your drool cup?</description>

		<description>I guess the Democratic Party&#039;s operatives in the media are no better than the Democratic Party&#039;s consultants. We really need to get better at this conspiracy gig if we want to push the homosexual feminist atheist communist agenda over the top.</description>

		<description>Gary Ruppert also calls himself Fred Eper. He IS that stupid!

He&#039;s also called the troops in Iraq &quot;cowards.&quot;

Oh, and annieangel is a man. And it&#039;s NOT planning Eschaton.</description>

		<description>Hey gary, give us a list of all the good things that are going on in Iraq.  Just make sure the list is longer than the bad stuff.  Go ahead.  you freaks always stop at the &quot;they never report the good stuff.....&quot;  Okie dokie, start reporting!! let&#039;s hear it.  For every car bomb, tell us about a school being built - but it can&#039;t be the same one.  For every percentage point rise in child mortality since the fall of Saddam, give us some shiny happy story.  Unless you can do that, you really need to STFU</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;i&gt;We have tens of thousands of inarguable innocents dead in Iraq- women and children- and that&#039;s going off the lowball White House figure. Circa 3,000 butchered innocents on 9/11.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
Ah, but it&#039;s even &lt;i&gt;worse &lt;/i&gt;than that. Iraq has, roughly, 1/10th the population of the USA. So, though the Garys of the world will shriek &quot;moral relativism!&quot; the top of their lungs, those 30,000 dead Iraqis are, as a percentage of the general population, the equivalent to over 300,000 dead Americans. D&#039;oh! But, then, such trifles never matter to people like Gary.</description>

		<description>Dan, Dan, Dan.  Just LISTEN to Gary.

The Iraqis attacked us on 9/11- an event worse than all other atrocities in history combined- because one day Cindy Sheehan would be shown on the teevee complaining about how much she hates the freedom we gave to Iraq when 9/11 forced us to invade them and we removed Saddam from power, thereby freeing up the massive Al Queda forces inside Iraq which Saddam had been keeping in check, allowing them to initiate a terror war against America starting with crashing hijacked planes into the twin towers on 9/11.  DUH!</description>

		<description>Say Gary, how do you reconcile the idea that &quot;the MSM is responsible for emboldening the jihadists&quot; with the fact that the boldest thing the jihadists ever did occurred on September 11, 2001, well before the Iraq Clusterfuck even started, let alone was being reported on?

Every time Gary Ruppert writes &quot;the fact is&quot; or &quot;in fact,&quot; an angel gets its wings...

		<description>9/11 was worse than the entire Iraq war?  That&#039;s sick.  We have tens of thousands of inarguable innocents dead in Iraq- women and children- and that&#039;s going off the lowball White House figure.  Circa 3,000 butchered innocents on 9/11.  Both are horrifying, but one jumps out at me as being somewhat worse.  Hint- it&#039;s the one that&#039;s obviously worse to anyone with a functioning brain.

So what are you saying, conservatroid?  The lives of 20 thousand brown people are worth less than the lives of 3 thousand white people?  So how many brown people does it take to equal one white person?  Exactly how sub-human do Republicans think non-whites are?

I&#039;ve done some math and, figuring in that many of the innocents murdered on 9/11 were also non-whites, it looks like Gary thinks one white person is worth AT LEAST ten brown people.  This beats the 3/5s compromise, so already today&#039;s Republicans are bigger piles of shit than a 19th century plantation owner.  Nice feat, that.

Let&#039;s cut to the chase, Gary.  Is a brown skinned person&#039;s life more or less important than an animal&#039;s?  Like, which is the worse crime, to slit the throat of an eight year old Iraqi girl or to cut the throat of a cute chow puppy?  How about ten Iraqi girls to one chow?  Ten thousand to one?  Am I getting warm?

How about plants?  Are brown people worth more to the conservatroids than plants?  Is it a worse tragedy to pop the head off a dandelion, or to saw an Iraqi infant into quarters?  Ten infants?  Again, help would be appreciated, as I&#039;ve never plumbed depths this low before.  You Republicans really LIVE down here?  Ick.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;9/11 was much worse than what is happening in Iraq&lt;/i&gt;

You know, the first post I ever read on Riverbend&#039;s blog was the twin stories of regular guys reading newspaper in a building, hearing a hiss, and then an explosion, and then...nothing. One man was in the World Trade Center on 9-11. The other was in a building in Baghdad during Shock and Awe.  

At first glance, it seems that these two events would be equally bad, but you miss the subtle philosophical complexity of Gary&#039;s argument: On 9-11, some of US died. In Iraq, it&#039;s just THEM. Q.E.D.</description>

		<description>:D  That works, too!

I think I&#039;ll just declare &quot;War on Stupidity&quot;.  That is about as winnable as a &quot;War on Terror&quot;, but has the advantage of not being waged against an emotion people occasionally enjoy feeling.</description>

		<description>Dear Brad R.,

I must take issue with your erroneous use of the word &quot;troll&quot;. The meaning of troll is not &quot;someone who has a different opinion than the majority of the blog&quot;. Please look the word up. Your finding that Gary is not serious does not entail the conclusion: &quot;Gary Ruppert is not a real troll&quot;. Rather the conclusion is: &quot;Gary Ruppert is actually a troll&quot;. 

Thank you for your time.</description>
