Wait ... who is trolling who?

"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."

It's like mommy and daddy are fighting in the kitchen and I try to cover my ears but I can still hear them...

But, but-why should assholes like Ruch Limbaugh and Dick Cheny be treated with dis-respect and held accountable for supporting the war, and Dan Savage forgiven?

In answer to your question:

Because unlike Rush Limbaugh and Dick Cheney, Dan Savage has since recanted and now vehemently opposes the war.

Oh, wait, the other troll ...

The dead and maimed are still dead and maimed and the Iraqi people are still suffering and dying.

They don't give a fuck that Dan has recanted! And neither do I!

Human beings are machine-gunned and bombed from the air, automatic grenade launchers pepper hovels and neighbors with high-powered explosive devices, and convoys race through Iraq like freight trains of death. These soldiers and Marines have at their fingertips the heady ability to call in airstrikes and firepower that obliterate landscapes and villages in fiery infernos. They can instantly give or deprive human life, and with this power they become sick and demented. The moral universe is turned upside down. All human beings are used as objects. And no one walks away uninfected.

If we work with the logic of the asshat @ 5, then none of us fags should be allowed to say we're gay. Because we all at one point in our life swore we were straight.

I used to believe in God, but now I don't. I can't say I'm an atheist because once upon a time I believed in God. Same thing applies for Santa Clause. And the TMNT.

This is fun!

Leave the posts. We've ignored the troll so much it's second nature to skim right on by.

As long as Dan's war on the people of Iraq continues I'll be reminding folks that he helped make all this possible. He had a choice: he could oppose the war and the inevitable death and suffering; or he could support it. He supported the death and suffering. His is the worst kind of jingoistic =war mongering: he's an armchair warrior just ike the rest of you superficial sloggers. Back to eating assholes folks.

WHEN WILL WE HAVE REGISTERED USER NAMES????!!!!!!!

Oh come on. That isn't going to change a thing. It's not like this douchebag drops by daily. It's periodical. It won't take him more than three minutes to create a gmail account, validate registration, and go hogwild. Trust me. I'm Mr. Poe. I know trolling.

I honestly had no idea that Dan Savage was responsible for so much of what goes on in this country, especially in regards to foreign policy.

For srsly, the list of Dan's crimes reads like the lyrics to "We Didn't Start the Fire."

Whew, it's gonna take awhile to recover from this drama.

Might I humbly suggest a post of some excellent man-candy to help restore our faith in humanity? What's that English rugby player Ben Cohen been up to lately? I could snack on his ass for a week.

More man candy please!

What do we want?

Eric Bana

When do we want him?

Now!!1111!!

Either that or they just don't hang out that much. Meh...

Sorry you've had so much of your time today wasted - but you can't reason with a troll, and any attempt to do so will only feed it.

I vote for killing the post entirely and letting it die.

You're a pro-war nothing.

Welcome to the club, fnarf.

Hey Dan, since you have (according to the troll) so much power over time & space, how about doing something simple, say, stop the Mariners from being so crappy, and then work up to world peace & happiness?

Wow. I see a lot of bitterness and douchenozzlery in your post. A little close to home, was it?

Beyond the minor annoyance his (?) comments create, it's absolutely right and proper for the stupidity that led to the invasion to be kept alive and kicking. There were some really stupid choices made, and the people who made 'em need to be reminded of them, and often.

Yes Dan, we know you're sorry. But as you were told at the time, and as you've been told often since, this is going to hang around your neck for the rest of your career. As it should.

And anyway, I scroll past boring Slog comments the same way I scroll past boring Slog postings--which is to say, a lot.
