If (insert nation here) invaded the US to remove Bush...

[plurality]

but also fired you and everyone you knew, planned to sell American assests to foreign companies, held your relatives in prison for months on the basis of 'tips', planned to permanently house it troops all over the country, closed newspapers for speaking ill of its occupying troops, and hand-picked the new government and re-wrote the Constitution, would you...

Edit - Forgot to add, non-violent demonstrations are met with gun fire from masked paramilitaries recruited from the ghettos by occupying troops, and refered to in the international media as 'firing on unruly mobs'.

1. I'd do the same thing my ancestors did to the British:

kick their asses out of here :grr:

[Nay]

24. Yeah! What arcane said!

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

2. I took the last option

When things suck that badly, how exactly do you tell apart the people who want to kill you from the people who want to help you? Simple: you kill em all, just to be safe.

[IronLionZion]

3. quickly edit the <> to be ()

because we can't see it in the thread title.

[plurality]

4. done and done

[ObaMania]

10. Hey plurality...

cool avatar image!

[plurality]

11. Thanks

I call it '21st Century Madonna', and the mother of the world is weeping at what we've done to her child.

[rockymountaindem]

5. I see nobody wants to collaborate...

Eat that you freepers. We're the real patriots, not you, who want to sacrifice America's glory for a few drops of oil and a crazed madman.

[plurality]

6. And I'll add...

All of the above have and are happening in Iraq and can be documented if so desired.

[ACK]

7. Fight like hell

I would probably act like a rabid redneck.

I might be a good southerner liberal but you start marching on my neighborhood with foreign troops and I am climbing the trees with a shotgun and see how many of those f*ckers I can peel off with buckshot.

[comsymp]

18. Agreed, and it wouldn't require any of the actions mentioned in

the body of the original post~ if any nation invaded for ANY reason...

[IronLionZion]

25. most of us would do exactly what the Iraqis are doing

As much as we despise Bush, we don't want any foreign troops in OUR backyard.

[ComerPerro]

8. So, what you are saying is, hypotheticaly,

What if the Bush administration came here, invaded, and overthrew the Bush administration?

[plurality]

9. more or less

I'm just waiting for anyone who thinks the Iraqis should just lie back and take it would be willing to do the same if they were in the same position.

[GreenPartyVoter]

12. We'd drop nukes on anybody who tried to come in here

hence the reason the U.N. didn't come save us during the 2000 coup.

[plurality]

14. For the sake of argument, let's assumed they all fizzled.

[hippiegranny]

13. i admit it

i voted to pack up and leave.

[plurality]

16. It's alright

Some have families and protecting them is the most important thing to them, it's understanble. Who I would be really interested to hear from (not that I'm not interested in hearing from you) is the person who voted to help the occupiers.

[President Jesus]

15. is it just me, or is any option OTHER than #5 outright treachery?

[plurality]

17. well the case can be made for #3...

Say if you have small children who'd be unable to take care of themselves, I'd say it'd be best to take them to safety.

[frylock]

19. i'd be fighting back to back along with freepers and fundies..

to defend my country. Not at all unlike what we're witnessing now.

[rockymountaindem]

23. Excellent point.

Some of the people I disagree with the most on politics are also some of the people I'd want by my side if we ever came under attack. If the DUers and Freepers can get together to defend America, then certainly the Shia's and Sunni's can coalesce as well. Why are some people so unwilling to realize that people in Iraq will look past their differences to fight us?

[plurality]

20. Ok 2 collaborators so far..

Come on, I want to hear your reasons, tell me why you would accept the above actions and even cooperate with the people who did them. I'm sure you have your reasons, they might even be good ones, so please enlighten us.

[rockymountaindem]

21. They are freeper lurkers

trying to maintain a facade of credibility with themselves by pretending that they would accept someone doing to them what they advocate us doing in Iraq.

[plurality]

22. That or trying to make us look like traitors.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were a thread on FR linking to the poll saying to vote to collaborate so they can send it to Rush who'll read the poll on the air saying, "Democrats overwhelmingly would help the enemy."
