Excerpt from \"Say Yes To War\" by Dan Savage October 2002

\"In the meantime, invading and rebuilding Iraq will not only free the Iraqi people, it will also make the Saudis aware of the consequences they face if they continue to oppress their own people while exporting terrorism and terrorists. The War on Iraq will make it clear to our friends and enemies in the Middle East (and elsewhere) that we mean business: Free your people, reform your societies, liberalize, and democratize... or we\'re going to come over there, remove you from power, free your people, and reform your societies for ourselves\"

"Andrew", or whoever you are,

by putting up Dan's formerly hawkish views on the Iraq war, all you end up doing is upsetting the kool-aid drinkers who follow him no matter what he says.

A few years ago my band was on the year-end Top 50 list on the radio station of the University of Minnesota at Morris, KUMM. I swear this is true.

#3 as one of many fans of America\'s favorite homosexual I agree! Who cares about all these maimed and dead people and the folks responsible-some in small, and others in large ways-for the destruction and carnage. As long as Dan continues to be entertaining we shall support him. But the day that he runs out of amusing stories about cocksucking and rim jobs is the day we should waterboard the son of a bitch!
#5 How presumptuous of you to tell this individual how to spell his name.

NEW YORK One of the least covered aspects of the fallout from the Iraq war is the rising toll of suicides, both near the battlefield and back home.

Latest official figures released by the Pentagon reveal at least 116 self-inflicted fatalities in Iraq. But this does not include several dozen still under investigation, nor any of the many cases back in the U.S.

Still waiting on the debut of KOCK.

Also, funny how the Dan hating spammers, realizing the net crew is home for the weekend, spams the Slog with their Dan Supported The War spam under all their various sock puppet pseudonyms, especially the first one, which is a failed attempt at being clever and incriminating Andrew Sullivan, like anyone's retarded enough to buy that Sullivan wrote that.

You guys are so intelligent. I have no idea why they kicked you out of kindergarten.
