This is obviously nonsense you mindless ass-fedora prevaricator. The only
soldiers hebetudinous enough to not support the war would be privates. Plus
soldiers hardly make enough money to have a grand cut from their salary.

Because the ones in favor of the war contain a veracity that the anti-war
blogs lack you lactating paraplegic.

The pro war blogs contain writers knowledgeable enough to avoid such errors
in judgement. A skill the erratum on the left clearly lack.

This exposes the fallacy of their poll since odds are the average everyday
grunt that can't read would more likely support Bush. Something you would
have taken into account if you weren't a traitor obsessed with molesting
incapacitated sexagenarians.

Our soldiers are emancipators not killers you malicious muck. How dare you
attempt to degrade their heroic efforts to liberate the oil, I mean people,
of Iraq. You're just a bad as the miserable wretch that should have greeted
our soldiers with chrysanthemums but instead fought back with guns.

"Ass-fedora prevaricator" means nothing at all other than that you are a
bloody dope full of himself.

Are you in Iraq? No you damn well aren't so how the f.ck can you make
such a statement? I think that those on the ground are worthy of far
more credence than a dumbshit like you who hides his intellectual
dishonesty behind meaningless, fancy phrases typed from the warmth of
his home.

So what you are saying is "if they agree with my views then they are
truthful, if they don't they are a pile of dross". You're laughable
sonny.

Easy, John. I seem to detect, in the "rest of crap" especially, kind of
a sarcastic/ironic trait that might mean he's in fact joking.

John, I wouldn't swear to this, but I'd bet money that "Vangar's" post
was entirely tongue in cheek, mocking the usual responses we anticipate
from the zealots on the right... I got a laugh out of his Norm
Crosby-esque insults...

Could be but I'm not so sure. After your coments and those of Frenchy I
read it again and for much of iot what you say could well be true but
overall I still had the impression that the guy beleieved it.
Nevertheless I shall be careful on his/her account.
