Jesus Almighty! They get more pathetic by the MINUTE!

If Iraq is so bad, why aren't we pulling out of Detroit?

By Justin Darr
web posted August 22, 2005

(excerpt, ecce whore...)

Many Democrats have been eager to jump on the antiwar band wagon for political gain. While these Democrats are more than happy to call Iraq an American bloodbath, they are decidedly less fervent in their desire to look at their own casualty figures.

According FBI crime statistics, Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles, and Philadelphia, all of which are controlled by the Democratic Party, had a combined total of over 1,900 homicide deaths in their cities in 2003 alone. What is their "exit strategy?" Why are they not demanding deadlines from their city councils for an end to all crime fatalities by the end of 2006 or they are going to pack up the police department and move to the suburbs? Why are the Democrats so intent to blame President Bush for the continuation the Iraqi insurgency when they cannot even control the insurgency of criminals in their own cities?


More crap: http://www.enterstageright.com/archive/articles/0805/0805iraqdetroit.htm

NOTE: This is the same Canadian site that features the frequent disheartingly demented ramblings of actor Michael Moriarty (self-declared candidate for the Presidency in 2008), FYI.

You know, if we use this heathen's logic, why did we just do nothing after 9/11? After all, that was what? 3,000-plus deaths by terrorism? OK, that happened on one day, so you'll get an equal number if you tally the entire 2001, with me? So, how many deaths occurred by highway fatalities that year? How many deaths by handgun? Etc etc etc.

They are SO ANNOYING, these people!!!!

1. Wasn't this argument used during Vietnam?
It's eerily reminiscent.

11. If there were daily carbombs and assassinations in these cities
I'd be pretty damn pissed off about that too.

What a stupidass "argument".

14. I would invite all who believe this tripe to take a one week
vacation in Iraq...........and NOT IN THE GREEN ZONE.

If they make it back in one piece, I think they should go on national television and tell us their experiences. I would ask that they please bring a video camera to show how peaceful and stable Iraq is compared to Detroit.

I would chip in to buy one of these idiots a plane ticket....a little chlorine in the gene pool never hurts

16. I think they disarm the insurgents in Iraq. You know - gun control?
Perhaps they should try that in the USA.
