Wrong.

Free-Fire Zones are against the Geneva Convention, and both John Kerry and John O’Neill participated in them.

Commanders were ordering that war crimes be committed during the Vietnam War.

Is that “led”* poisoning or “leed” poisoning–you know, the kind you get from reading too many headlines?

Darling Pierre,

I’m sorry, but your hero is venal (Harkin Energy, other instances in which he has placed his personal financial remuneration above ethical interests), feckless (TANG obligations, no exit strategy for Iraq, abandonment of Afghanistan), and easily swayed (there is an entire web page devoted to his flip-flops, though I can’t recall the URL at the moment). In addition, he is easily flummoxed (“Didn’t know you’d ask me difficult questions at a press conference”, seven minutes of being a deer in the headlights while America was under attack).

While I can provide precise and clear factual support for my assessment, you have given us only empty rhetoric. The notion that George Bush is an “honorable” man is absurd. Honorable people fulfill their obligations.

As for your grammar, you started that little flamefest. Personally, I learned to avoid grammar and spelling flames on the ‘net almost twenty years ago.

And yes, we’ll beat the hell out of you with sarcasm and satire. We like to smile, you see.

but thanks for the empty rhetoric and the easily dismissed target.

Sounds gay to me, and worse, French!

Who wants to bet that “Pierre LaGrand” has a few extra chromosomes to spare?

Congrats Seb, your entire post just flew right over his head.

Oh deary me what is a naturally dumb conservative to do when those wickedly sarcastic wits over at Sadly No come a knocking?

First off let me just say how flattered I am that those kindly souls took the time to google me, I am absolutely floored by …

How easy would it be for a feckless, easily swayed president to have a 20-foot wide banner strung up on an aircraft carrier after pretending to land a plane on it?

Feckless and easily swayed. That’s Bush! You’re talking about Bush! But you forgot venal. Bush is also venal.

“Mr President, what does ‘venal’ mean to you?”

“Well, it means, like when you’re venal, it means you have the quality of being venal. You have veins and such. And when you have veins, you are venal.”

How easy would it be for a feckless, easily swayed president to declare the war won?

Yeah, like…Mission Accomplished!

I got a comma! And some say that just one man can’t make a difference.

Could you give some commas to Pierre, too? I mean, English is my second language as well, but even I can tell that he is in dire need of some punctuation. Especially if he’s going to rag on someone’s language skills…

Pardon me while I post triumphantly about getting a comma.
