4. In their deluded minds, yes.
These people remind me of seriously brainwashed cult members. No matter how much abuse the leader perpetrates on them, they still believe God is acting through him/her. Disgusting.

19. Anything and everything with a flag
They rally behind it, but have a warped interpretation of what it stands for.

They think that draping themselves in it makes their arguement infalible. It just makes them look like buffons as you said.

Remember the unknown patriot?

3. So Now It's God's Fault?
Funny how they always blame their crimes on somebody or something else, isn't it. I have had it with these people a long time ago, but now I just pity them. They truly are useless to society. Do they do anything for this country, this world of ours besides help destroy it all?

Oh... that's right. It's God's fault.:sarcasm:

Edited on Mon Aug-29-05 10:42 AM by tridim
Is this another "moran" sign?

reasoning of the other sign.

33. My fiance had to literally stop me from pulling over
at a local church where they had rows of those crosses representing all the "unborned killed by abortion."

I wanted to cross out the "abortion" in ABORTION KILLS and write in WAR KILLS over it.

It was broad daylight, so he thought it probably wasn't a good idea. :)

7. So now the war is God's fault???? I thought God put bush in the
WH in the first place, perhaps as some kind or ethereal joke:shrug:

I always wondered why God would put such an incredibly stupid, self-centered, egotistical asshole in there in the first place...Oh wait, it wasn't God, it was mass deception by the neo-cons in the vain, (I hope) attempt to bring about Armegeddon.

Can't blame Clinton....so they blame God...:wtf:

8. Good thing none of these signs show up around Camp Casey
Regardless of the Vets for Peace trying to keep our camp peaceful and in order, if the FReepers came around here with those signs, that Protest Warrior sign wouldn't be the only RW sign trampled underfoot in Crawford that weekend.

9. They blame everyone except the responsible party.
Bush lied and we wound up in a war of aggression. I think that just about sums it up.

The stupidity of these people is breathtaking.

Really pathetic. Was it Billboardproject that said an angelic little kid came out of the house when he was taking pics and said, "You're an idiot."

16. Cardboard cutout of W-- great idea!
They could use cutouts of regular people and look like they have more people demonstrating. Like the old clay soldiers in China only more portable.

17. This sign is vicious.
One implication is that Cindy's son deserved to die.

I won't show the picture to my husband because I know it will make his blood pressure go up.

A Korean War vet at my husband's senior center claims God saved his life in the Korean War. My husband thinks this statement is an insult to the far better men who were killed in Korea.

20. If they found this type of shrine to GOd and Bush in his basement...
He'd be involuntarily committed. So why do they allow this obviously troubled soul to just wander around with crosses, lifesize pictures of Bush and hate signs that don't make any sense?

27. It speaks to their fear, certainly
They are trying, desperately, to shift the discussion from the war to a single individual. In Rovian fashion, you identify the individual, diminish them by not using her full name and claim to national attention (a GOLD STAR MOTHER) and then proceed to attempt, clumsily, to rip her apart.

The problem is that their logic sucks. If God runs around killing youngsters in a war for oil and for the enrichment of fat old men in America, then God is an asshole.

Also by that logic,, God took the tape player out of my locked car in Los Angeles and sold it on the street for drug money.

God's a busy guy...

There is a sign in the first photo that says, "Democrats kill unborn babies for votes." Those people are insane.

in the World Trade Center, because God was pissed at the Homo's and the promiscuousness of the New York folks.

47. As someone has pointed out: radical clerics Robertson and Falwell
have both said that God was behind 9-11 as divine payback to gays, pagans, and the rest of us here on DU and elsewhere.

Cindy, why are you misrepresenting God's word?

So, basically, bush=God? In the Bible I heard at Sunday school, this is blasphemy and worshipping an idol before God. This is the ultimate sin.

I think we have certainly bridged into a cult. Sickening.

32. At least one of the signs I can agree on (but it' way effing late)
"THE NEWS MEDIA IS CREATING HARM TO OUR SOLDIERS"

Like if some of the poor fools would just read a little more.

Wouldn't occur to many of these misguided souls, that some or even a lot of other people would lie through their teeth just so they could make a fast buck :shrug:

Throw propaganda rag in the shit-can and join the rest of the people here in reality.

Bush, a large cross, a W, a flag, and "9-11." I wonder who stagecrafted that scene. Looks like the fat dude with the hat had some help.

42. Well, God personally told Bush, see, to send the US military into Iraq
so, technically, it is God's fault.

As with most things related to Bush, there is no paper trail.
