Lincoln Logs
Rep. Don Young (R AK) quotes Abraham Lincoln: “Congressmen who
willfully take action during wartime that damage morale and undermine
the military are saboteurs, and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged.”
Why, that’s not even a good Lincoln quote.
As Abraham Lincoln, our 16th President, was often known to remark, “Joe Lieberman’s ass smells like a dying weasel crawled up there to have his last cigar.”

Waitaminute. Just waitaminute there, fellah. You’re sayin that a sitting Republican congressman lied. You’re coming right out and claiming that an American elected official did not tell the truth. This is….This is beyond my capacity to comprehend!!

The fact is, feminist bloggers making fun of Catholic ritual are a more apt example of extremism than a member of the House going on the record with a made-up Lincoln quote to justify his idea that other Representatives who dare to disagree with Dear Leader’s war policy should be hanged.

Seriously, Gary, I think the fakey Lincoln quote goes too far.
Do you really believe the Congressional opposition to Clinton’s Balkans adventure should have been a hanging offense?
Gary Ruppert said,

Well, the Balkan thing wasn’t even a war, but the situation in Iraq is a part of the War on Terror.

Shots were fired in anger between two formalized militaries. At least one US aircraft (F-117) was shot down.
That’s not a war?
By your constraints, Gulf War I wasn’t a war, either.

So we can make something a hanging offense merely by calling it a war? Before you answer that you might want to recall that the Dems do control Congress right now, you know, and Congress has the right to declare war…

So let’s see – if Congress fails to stop the “surge”, and the soldiers have to do another extended tour – would morale be damaged? Would overworking soldiers undermine the military, if they’re stressed out, underequipped, and demoralized?
In that case, supporting the “surge” is a hanging offense.
Maybe not such a bad idea after all, Gary!

“I’m tired of the motherfucking jacking
Sweatin my gang when I’m chilling in the shack, and
Shining a light in my face, and for what?
Maybe it’s because I kick so much butt
I kick ass, or maybe ’cause I blast
On a stupid ass nigga when I’m playing with the trigger
Of an uzi or an AK
Cause the police always got something stupid to say
They put out my picture with silence
Cause my identity by itself causes violence”

Well, the Balkan thing wasn’t even a war, but the situation in Iraq is a part of the War on Terror.
I recall some missile attacks on AQ camps in Afghanistan in ’98. Remember that? The GOPers were all yelling something about, “wag the dog…?” It seems there was something else going on around that time. Something… I don’t recall, but it seemed awfully important. Like, impeachment-worthy important…
Aah, forget it.
I’m impressed, Gary. Even KNOWING that the quote is false, you agree with the sentiment: that members of Congress who disagree with the President’s war policy should be hung.
So, just to be clear, you’re advocating the killing of elected officials at the highest level of the US gov’t for the crime of disagreeing?
You are calling for, in short, the violent overthrow of the US gov’t?
Nice going, traitor. Why do you hate America?
(Hey, somebody had to feed your pet troll, folks. He looked hungry. I’m reporting you to the animal cops next time. You shouldn’t take them in if you’re not going to take care of them. And what the hell is that rash on his ass? You never heard of a vet?)

I never realized Lincoln was such a quote machine.
War. On Terror. It’s been siad before, but Gary, How does one fight a war on a non-specific noun? What does it look like? Do we rip it out of every book where the word exists? How about little kids getting Night Terrors? Do we have to stop watching scary movies? What about that instant just before your car is slammed by the bus? Will that stop happening?
What does winning look like? Will there be no more terrorists, ever? Because that’s a hard thing to believe. As Your Soulmate Timmy McVeigh demonstrates, terrists can come from just about anywhere with no warning; even non-scary Whitish Christian-ish males.
Who is the enemy? Does he have a home? A country? A Planet, even? What will a surrender look like?
Like the War on Drugs, I fear it is a catchphrase only, a way to appear tough and create unending war-like activiity for reasons of greed and power. Now show me how that’s not true. You can even use the Dustbin of Hist-o-Ree.
