  • The warmongering Barack Obama will alienate America’s allies.

‘Shorter’ concept created by Daniel Davies and perfected by Elton Beard.


Previously in conservatism’s generational struggle to end American warmongering:

  • Bill Clinton is squandering our troops in an 800-million-dollar Somalia quagmire.

Was that Obama’s threat, or Oh, bomb us! threat?

 
 

I agree that alienating our allies would be bad. Thank god we have Bush…

Waitaminute. Did I miss something?

I thought Obama was the one who said he WASN’T gonna use nukes to take out Osama, unlike Clinton Part Deux.

 
 

Man, I love these new, improved hello-kitty soft – N – gentle conservatives. They’ve learned tolerance from Matt Sanchez, they’ve learned restrained fiscal policy from Nancy Pelosi, and now they’ve learned to live in peace with their neighbors from Barack Obama.

Republicans ’08. The party that loves EVERYONE…

And so Obama’s blunt attempt to re-gain vital national security ground after losing out to Hillary Clinton in the recent Democratic debate has backfired in the States and abroad. As another Democratic candidate for the presidency, Joe Biden, said at a National Press Club luncheon last Wednesday:

“The way to deal with it is not to announce it, but to do it.”

Ah yes. Germany’s reaction would be so much more approving if President Obama moved on bin Laden in Pakistan unilaterally and without warning.

 
 

Those warmongering, soft-on-terrorist Democrats always alienating allies and fighting devastating wars that coddle terrorist…blreep….bisjhb…[KABOOM].

Where’s Leary with that acid, yo? I’m about a month away from the whole “drop out” thing. Jesus, I can’t take this bullshit anymore.

 
 

You know, it is a little odd, the Germans taking what Clinton said for something Obama said instead.

Then again, Ilsa, She-Wolf of the SS and Hogan’s Heroes were filmed on the same set.

Our Teutonic friends aren’t the most precise people, it would seem.

 
 

I thought Obama was the one who said he WASN’T gonna use nukes to take out Osama

Oh! Well, that certainly changes everything. As long as we only invade the sovereign borders of one of our allies and kill and/or kidnap a large number of their citizens using CONVENTIONAL arms, well golly, tht’s fine.

Why didn’t you just SAY so?

mikey

 
 

You know, it is a little odd, the Germans taking what Clinton said for something Obama said instead.

He DID say it. He indicated he wouldn’t use NUCLEAR weapons, which is kind of “Duh” because they aren’t the best choice for taking out a terror cell. But he DID say he would use US military forces in violation of Pakistani sovereignity…

“Let me make this clear,” Obama said. “There are terrorists holed up in those mountains who murdered 3,000 Americans. They are plotting to strike again. It was a terrible mistake to fail to act when we had a chance to take out an al-Qaida leadership meeting in 2005. If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf will not act, we will.”

Liberals SUCK!

FRED THOMPSON FOR PRESIDENT!

 
 

Thanks joe. That’s some convincing rhetoric. You’ve really given me something to think about…

mikey

 
 

You are most welcome my commie friend i’m glad I enlighted you. Make sure you tune in to the Godfather Rush Limbaugh he will teach you everything you need to know.

 
 

Make sure you tune in to the Godfather Rush Limbaugh he will teach you everything you need to know.

Lies. He has yet to talk about how much Oxycontin to take to get your weewee up in front of a 10 year old Dominican.

 
 

I can’t keep up with the wingnuts. Yesterday the Dems were godless peaceniks and today they’re godless warmongers (for wanting to get Osama). Meanwhile, George Bush continues to flush $11 billion a month down the toilet…

 
 

Charming how the left always resorts to personal attacks. Your just teed off because the right is right and the left is wrong about everyting. Abortion is murder, homosexuality is a sin, guns protect the innocent and tax cuts fuel the economy. AND the illegal aliens should all be deported.

 
 

Charming how you can’t tell even a bad parody of a wingnut apart from the real thing.

 
 

The warmongering Barack Obama will alienate America’s allies.

Ha. Jokes on you, Barack. We don’t have any allies for you to aienate! Take that to your madrasa!

 
 

Oh really commie. But I can tell you this the left has poisoned this country with its political correctness and its moral relativism. and buy trying to get America to lose in Iraq ie Dingey Harry and Queen Nancy are sowing the seeds of their own eventual landslide defeat come 2008. face it lefty trolls the demonicrats own defeat.

OK, you’re funny, but you’re no Gary Ruppert.

 
 

No parodies here Simba I AM THE REAL THING!

 
 

so NOW threatening to bomb any country with brown people that looks at us funny is a BAD thing?

Wasn’t that the Shorter for Bush/Cheney’s Foreign Policy?

Gad. It’s been said before, but cosnistency is no longer a Conservative Principle, is it?

 
 

I read Gary Ruppert.

I laughed at Gary Ruppert.

Gary Ruppert drooled on my sleeve.

And you, joe, you are no Gary Ruppert!

mikey

 
 

Republicans ‘08. The party that loves EVERYONE…

Republicans ALWAYS run on the Big Tent, Compassionate Conservative BS.

Then when they get into office, it’s all Loyalty Oaths n Long Knives…

Maybe this go-round, America will tumble to the pattern?

War is peace. Freedom is Slavery. Ignorance is strength.

Careful, joey girl. White europeans were the Original illegal aliens.

 
 

No Mikey I am not Gary Ruppert I AM THE BRINGER OF CONSERVATIVE TRUTH! And I tell all you commies this open your eyes and see the truth that America IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD ALMIGHTY GOD HAS BESTOWED HAS HIS ABUNDANT BLESSINGS UPON US AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS THE GREAT GUARDIAN OF AMERICA’S CONSTITUTION!

 
 

And FRED THOMPSON WILL KICK THE DEM’S ASS IN THE GENERAL ELECTION!

 
 

My god, it’s full of capitals

 
 

America IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD

Umm, sure, except that her very existence, and our very way of life, is threatened by a few hundred guys in caves halfway around the world who haven’t launched a successful strike against the US in six years.

Sorry, buddy. Gonna have to get your story straight…

mikey

 
 

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS THE GREAT GUARDIAN OF AMERICA’S CONSTITUTION!

Because when THEY suck, they offer to pay you TWENTY DOLLARS for it! w00t!

 
 

They haven’t attacked us successfully in six years Mike man because our great military successfully destroyed them and probably killed bin laden.

 
 

I think joe is more like New Coke, whereas Gary Ruppert is Coke Zero.

 
 

Sorry for feeding the troll, my snark-o-meter was low.

 
 

LONG LIVE THE FREE REPUBLIC!

 
 

I like the Coke™ brand references, thelogos.

When I was a young’un, I was a big time addict. Later on, I discovered beer, and moved on.

Fnfahahahahaha! Thanks, Dave. Without comments like this I’d be losing my mind, Dave.

Oh, cool. We can bring our troops home then…

Jebus! It’s like that scene from The Hunger where the monkey goes berserk. And it doesn’t even have the funky Bauhaus song to go with it.

America IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD

Sonny, you oughta see America from the outside. Then you might understand why people edge away from you. ‘Strue, I tell you: all the other continents are quietly paddling themselves away from the mighty US of A. It’s getting damn crowded down here in the southern hemispere, you know.

ALMIGHTY GOD HAS BESTOWED HAS HIS ABUNDANT BLESSINGS UPON US

[sigh] Why is it that, every time some brutal cunt rips the still-beating heart out of someone else, they always claim it’s their almighty god bestowing blessings upon them? And in this case, I should add the words “ignorant” and “illiterate”. Probably some others too, but I just can’t be bothered. Utter ennui, I’ve got.

 
 

Where you from Abbysinian some pussy turd world cuntry.

joe said,I ment I’d perfer into Mexico to kick some wetback ass!

But “they” hate us for our freedoms, right? Not because we kick the living shit out of some poor innocents whose ‘abundant blessings’ you want…

 
 

Like I said Abbysinian your from some ungrateful pussy country who America saved from some other pussy country.

 
 

Alright, “joe”. Fuck you. Go away now. This board is not for that kind of “discourse”…

mikey

 
 

You’ll have a much better time with the Freepers…

mikey

 
 

Sorry Mikey I’m just sick of ungrateful foreigners trashing America after we saved their pacifist asses in ww1, ww2 and the Cold War.

 
 

Where art thou oh liberal Mikey.

 
 

Art thou hiding under his desk as O’reilly would say.

Come out I promise I won’t bite.

don’t be scared.

 
 

Here pussy pussy pussy.

 
 

COWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 
 

Man, I love the manly-man routine from a guy who seems to want Fred Thompson, an actor slash lobbyist who spends most of his day wearing cake makeup, up his ass.

I also like how you call the damn Vietnam vet a pussy, you little coward. You’d never actually go to war for America, because you don’t give a shit about how great it is, you don’t care about defending its freedoms, and you don’t give a rat’s ass about the Constitution. You’re just another barking asshole who wants to kill brown people and beat off to old episodes of Law and Order. You ought to get out of my country and go to some Balkan shithole like Macedonia where nobody’ll see through your pathetic pretend-patriot routine.

 
 

What’s wrong, you pathetic half-retarded lard-ass? You can give it, but you can’t take it, huh? You think you’re King Shit of Fuck Mountain just because you got a hard-on during Saving Private Ryan? Get a running start and go fuck yourself.

 
 

Leave the Macedonians out of it. Pick on those donkey-humping Albanians, OK?

 
 

You’d never actually go to war for America, because you don’t give a shit about how great it is, you don’t care about defending its freedoms, and you don’t give a rat’s ass about the Constitution.

Um. Full disclosure?

I didn’t give a rats ass either. I went to war because the alternative was get drafted into the Marines. I figured I was pretty smart, I could go Cav and pass the test for aviation, not pilot school, but at least crew. And what a surprise, they fucked me and re-designated me eleven bravo.

Freedoms? Psssshhh.

I’da stayed home and surfed and got laid if I coulda figured out how to do it.

Now, do I have memories, not all bad and certainly those I wouldn’t trade? Sure.

But on balance, it was a shitty deal.

But that’s kinda the point. War is not good for anyone but the folks who want it and the folks who make the shit we shoot or blow up.

Just sayin…

mikey

 
 

Sorry Mikey i didn’t realize you served. That takes guts man. My most sincere apologies. Anyway way I gotta run I won’t bother you guys any more.

That’s a pity; I was looking forward to learning how the US defended Abyssinia from invasion by Italy.

 
 

So Joe, when are you enlisting and what wars have you participated in? Shall I call the recruiters and tell them you’re eager to enlist?

 
 

Leave the Macedonians out of it. Pick on those donkey-humping Albanians, OK?
Noble Albania? Never!

Those damnedable Transinistrians, on the other hand…

 
 

Liberals rule! Abortion is a woman’s right, gay people are people too, it’s time to leave Iraq, and guns should be taken off the streets. However, immigrants should stay out of America!!! By the way, Joe is a conseverative nut!

 
 

So Joe, when are you enlisting and what wars have you participated in? Shall I call the recruiters and tell them you’re eager to enlist?

It’s been well over ten minutes, so by the standards of deranged conservative logorrhea, you are free to call joe a “COWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Don’t forget the ALL CAPS and multiple exclamation marks. They’re the marks of serious wingnut thought.

 
 

Will someone please put Joe on TV. We can take up a collection and get a 30 second spot in primetime.

It will ensure that no Republican will get elected for any office, ever again

COWARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You know, I gotta admire the courage and manliness of someone whose idea of “battle” and “contest” is to post shitty little taunts on a website and then proclaim himself the winner after ten minutes of being ignored.

Way to go, killer. You sure kicked ass.
