From the AP:
More than 2,000 people demonstrated Tuesday at the site of a car bombing south of Baghdad that killed 125 people, chanting “No to terrorism!”
An Internet statement purportedly by Abu Musab al-Zarqawi’s al-Qaida in Iraq group claimed responsibility the bombing.
YOUR COLONIALIST MEDDLING IS PUSHING ORDINARY IRAQIS TO JOIN THE INSURGENCY, MR BUSH,—PUSHING THEM TO JOIN WITH THE NEW GENERATION OF IRAQI MINUTEMEN FIGHTING FOR NATIONAL PRIDE AGAINST AN EVIL U.S. AGRESSOR BENT ON STEALING THEIR PRIDE AND THEIR OILLLLLL!
Ironically, the Bushies are taking virtually no credit for any of the extraordinary freedom feints we’ve seen in the mideast since the Iraqi elections (or, as Steven Den Beste would have it, since the re-election of President Bush); but without trust, on the part of those in mideast, in an administration that has proven it simply will not cave to international pressure when it feels its actions are justified, none of these sea changes we’ve seen in the last week would be happening.

Stop the Presses!
Forget Chimpy Mcwhatever.
This is Lingua-terrorism of a larger nature:

imo, it’s the literary equivalent of the Fred Durst video
feignts? As in feigning feints? Is that a double fuzzy negative?
As to the Bushies taking credit, why should they? All their paid losers, clad in their jammies, living in Mom’s basement, are doing it for them. Including that token joo spouting off in CO; he made a fortune using the ol’ my computer died ruse.
Heh.
I don’t own pajamas. And I’m being paid by ZOG, not, strictly speaking, the Bushies.
But I did make a fortune. Final tally? I trillion.
Where does the press find these Internet statements from Al-Qaida? Does Al-Qaida have a website, or do members just kind of drift from message board to message board?
This ZOG of whom you speak. I do not know ZOG. Is ZOG a joo, er, neoconservative? Is ZOG bigger than W? Does ZOG know GAY PORN? Are you posting nekkid in your mom’s basement?
Dude. You didn’t even mention U.S. hegemony.
I’m so ashamed…
Infidel Kazmin – We do not drift. We know exactly where we are go. So. You must not be so to make fun. Remember Theo Van Gone.
I have plenty of lefty former friends who are scrambling to find the negatives in these stories. I’m getting the following “counter arguments”
A. I don’t understand what it takes to maintain a democracy and neither do the Iraqis. Thus, it will fail.
B. We’ve lost too many troops and civilians in Iraq , it was not worth it. Thus, it has already failed.
C. This has nothing to do with Bush- in fact, this democratic uprising is DESPITE Bush, who only made the entire arab world hate us more. Thus, even if democracy succeeds, Bush failed.
D. 49% of the people in this country are not behind the president and anything he does. Thus, anything he does is a failure.
I wish that I was kidding but I’m not. Its hard to be friends with folks who used to think had a healthy functioning brain and now have gone completely batshit.

Sore looser is a name too temperate for the likes of you, seeing that your crew insisted the Admins. Democracy efforts would cause caos in the “arab street”, alas when fearless people embrace freedoms knock all you see is pajamas and…Jeff Gannon.
Sorta says it all about the state of the left, no?
Matt, I sympathize. Completely. Talk about baseball (not the Rangers tho’
. Sports. Music. If they’re not making batshit claims with these topics, they can be recovered. Eventually.
Unless they mention that Jimmah was actually the greatest of all presidents. Then you have to prevent them from procreating.
For the least-coherent writing containing the term “Zog” EVER set forth, go here
Methinks it’s a Baghdad Blob rant under an assumed identity. Same rhetorical acuity, diligence in fact-checking, and well-balanced viewpoint.
peapies, here’s a clue: sarcasm. If you read *all* the way through. To the end. Before you went all batshit (thanks, Matt) typing out that droll response, you might’ve picked up on it.
My word was filled.
Is ZOG the Keymaster or the Gatekeeper?
THERE IS NO GOLDSTEIN, ONLY ZOG.

So then this is the ZOG BLOG.
I feel a Dr. Seuss moment coming on.
Or are you talking sex wax? The best for your stick.
‘Cause that’s not Seussian. At all.
Sex wax? How about flujo?
I can’t make it link, but if you go to sexwax.com (it’s not kinky, sorry) and read the ZOG newsletter, you’ll realize that Jeff has been writing for a very, very long time.
It’s time to hear the other side of this arguement.
Where did Puce go off to?
More medical Spanish, redstate?
Yeah, flujo is the word I was searching for the other night, but was obviously buried in the deeper recesses of my mind. For good reason, I might add.
again, I am afraid.
Jeff, why is the former King of Albania paying you?
And how much is it, really, after you convert it to dollars?
I always sorta liked Trillian. Too bad she turned out to be a reporterette.
I have a question—why were these silly Iraqies chanting “No to Terrorists!”
Don’t they know that these people setting off bombs and killing innocent people aren’t terrorists? They are ‘insurgents’, ‘freedom fighters’ and ‘minutemen’, depending on whether you write for the NY Times, the AP, or CNN.
I think they meant to say No to Tourists!
Turing word “leave”
I can take a hint, Jeff. Shit.
Damn. Someone stole my No To Tourists line….Bastard.

I hear ZOG and ZUL are an item. But I never really trust these trans-dimensional rumors…
If Bush is Hitler , then I say “Heil Chimpy McHitlerburton !” and “ Heil ZOG ! “
I feel privileged to have seen the Wall fall under Reagan’s watch. Now to see the peoples of the middle east standing up and demanding a role and a voice in their government under the Bush/Cheney’s watch I feel the same way. It brings a lump to my throat and out of respect I won’t make a parody of it.
As for the Left.. I forgive them their petty heiney biting.. I even pity them.. I cant imagine how it must feel to find out in a short span of time that everything you know.. Everything you believe.. is wrong.. I imagine it stings a little.. but to you newly awakened Libs.. all is not lost.. redemption is just a thought away.. You’d be more than welcome on the right.. once you give up your extreme collectivist, anti-American and Pro-Terrorist ways that is… Quit living in a theoretical world and come join us in reality… There’s still a lot of work left to do… BPM
