If I was a Terrorist
I have uploaded this at the request of Samhass.
Very thought provoking in my opinion. http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/j...A-Terroist.jpg |
Re: If I was a Terrorist
OUCH!!!!

Re: If I was a Terrorist
Well.....would they?

Re: If I was a Terrorist
Tsk Tsk Political under the guise of non village shame on you Handie :joke: |
Re: If I was a Terrorist
OMG! George W. Bush is a terrorist! :o Sammie that is a great post! :bigthumbsup:

Re: If I was a Terrorist
That hits a little to close to home.
Would they? |
Re: If I was a Terrorist
Great post! Thanks for sharing!

Re: If I was a Terrorist
He sounds just about like B. Hussein Obama's ex-preacher man.* Pretty much the same message, dontcha think?* More America slamming - as if our government is God almighty and is capable of controlling everything, all the way down to the last forclosure.* That is paranoid, delusional and downright unhelpful to the American cause and spirit.
|
Re: If I was a Terrorist
Wow...what part was paranoid and delusional? Maybe if we don't think about it, it will go away. It's not America slamming. Questioning wrongs is what makes America great. Do you really think this administration had nothing to do with any of the things this man suggested? I ask this honestly and with curiousity, not in a demeaning way. I've read enough of your posts to respect you and am really interested in why you reacted as you did to this video.

Re: If I was a Terrorist
As a writer and wordsmith, it always interests me to look at the connotations and denotations of words and names. Whenever I see a focus on Barak Obama's middle name Hussein, I wonder what feelings a name like Omar Bradley elicits? Do we remember Five-Star-General Omar Bradley, known as "the soldier's general," and his outstanding service to our country during World War II?
This is not a comment on the video nor a political statement in response to it. |

Re: If I was a Terrorist
And yet one more thread that belongs in political. If all the threads that were political were posted correctly, this forum would be over 50% politics. Again it is still a political rag with some valuable information sprinkled in. Keep your politics in the political forum so the rest of us are not subjected to your biases.

The video portrays virtually the same tone and message that our adversaries in the middle east expressed following 9/11:* Anything bad that happens to us is the fault of our government.* And that is just not true.* And the Hussein part...he was indeed a Muslim, albeit a "nominal" one as documented in a variety of sources.* And given the recent history of that religion, it certainly matters to me. Yes, the video was thought provoking - my thoughts were provoked, and I expressed them...just not the way some of you agree with.* Oh well. :dontknow: I don't have any problem with this thread being moved to the political heading.* |
Re: If I was a Terrorist
gf -- CNN very much debunked the "Muslim" myth regarding Obama. Whether you like him or not, he deserves the basic respect of being called by the name he prefers. He does not and has not gone by his full name. He goes by Barack H. Obama. What is so hard about giving any human the basic consideration of calling them what they wish so long as that name is not obscene or hurtful to another?
I didn't take that the government was the terrorist from the video but rather what if all of this was caused by individuals or groups determined to harm the US. Hitting our economy would certainly be far more effective than any other act of terrorism. |

Re: If I was a Terrorist
Okay, talk about "much ado about nothing". Sam asked me to post this for her. Having never been to the "Political Forum" a forum I would never take part in...(why would I want to change your opinion?? You sure aren't going to change mine, so why bother? Just my humble opinion.) I posted it here, I forum I normally frequent. Wow, shoot me before dawn.
All this excitement over some guy sitting in a chair, satirizing the condition of this country as he sees it. It is satire, people. You know like Saturday night live, like late night talk show hosts...isn't political supposed to be serious? Maybe I am just naive. If you listen carefully he rips on just about every institution in this country from insurance companies to big business, education to healthcare and yes, even the government. If you look up James Pence, the commentator, which I did, by his own admission, this was meant as a satirical joke, not a political statement. |

Re: If I was a Terrorist
The bad grammer, dear Muncle, is the title of the video clip, not my grammer, just the title, as produced. So, see, how serious can we take someone who doesn't even know how to use proper grammer? ;D
|
Re: If I was a Terrorist
Wow. I just thought the video was interesting and thought provoking. I certainly never thought it would tear "neighbors" apart like this. It did not suggest, as one post did, that we drive with our lights off at night. That was hate filled and I know I will not be friends with the poster. This is pretty bad..and sad.

Re: If I was a Terrorist
now, now y'all
don't get all worked up about this video. who cares what forum it belongs under? is it really that important? is filing posts under the proper forum the most important thing in your book? and you complain about the administrators being picky? shame on you all! grammar? muncle...is this the most important thing that can upset you? you have never made a grammatical error ever? calm down everyone....it's satire... SMILE (even though it's a message we all should think about) UH OH...am I going to get ramrodded because I didn't use correct punctuation and capitalization? As if I didn't know....lol...did it purposefully just to annoy all you....especially mr. muncle.... ;D ;D ;D |

Re: If I was a Terrorist
:agree: Bright! Handi's still looking under his bed for Al Qaeda! Muncle reminds me of an C.P.A. my hubby once had. This guy would correct the grammar on faxes sent to him when he sent back his answer. One day my husband just faxed four words back to him, "Blank U, U're Fired" (you can fill in the blank.) :joke: It amuses me how the gist of the video is ignored, to the more pressing issue of "Bad Grammar". And gfmucci, you are soooo rev'd up I don't know where to begin. Just want to say FYI Hussein is as common as name as Smith.
Actually lived next door to a Mohammad Hussein and his wife Jabeen and their two adorable little girls. We even exchanged Christmas presents. You couldn't find nicer people to be your neighbors. So, should all people named Smith then pay for or be ridiculed, or ostracised for something all the murderers and convicts named Smith did? I bet ya if we searched hard enough through records, we can find someone with our same last name, that has committed a horrible crime somewhere. That's just utterly ridiculous and so off point. Again, :#1: great post Sam. |

Yes, I agree it was satire - no question.* Satire, as you probably know, is often used as not so subtle political commentary as it was here.

Re: If I were a Terrorist
Good lord, have all you people lost your collective minds. Someone posts a political "satire" that gets expected results. Some scream foul and fire back in kind. Others salivate that "OMG! George W. Bush is a terrorist!" while compatriots complain the the responses were below the belt. And somebody brings up Omar Bradley, for God's sake! It has gotten too damned predictable and boring. So I committed the ultimate sin. I figured very possibly the most insignificant issue available, other than most of your arguments, was the grammar. So I brought it up. Susan saw the facetiousness and hopefully the humor of it. Look at her 10:36 post. If others missed it, too bad. :duck:
Regardless, you're all taking your opinions too damned seriously and not only refusing to accept anyone else's but seemingly you're denying them the right to even have them. Believe it or not, you do not know everything in the world. Your views are not sacrosanct. We can all learn something from others, whether we agree with them or not. In fact, generally we learn the most from those with whom we disagree. But first we have to listen. If any of my language offended anyone, eh sorry. However, please do not clean it up. If you must, just delete the thing. Tirade over. |

Re: If I was a Terrorist
gfmucci, if you think I'm going to look up and log the crimes committed, around the world, by people named "Smith" in the last month, you've really gone over the edge. Much better things to do with my time, like campaigning for Obama. :bigthumbsup:
