5. I blame our sick society
Wonder if I'm a freeper.

Our society is pretty sick. Look at the hate spewed daily on the radio. Look at the way people are rude and hateful to each other. Look at what is valued in our culture. Few are reflective anymore. It's still me, me, me.

6. Anyone but themselves
They spend days hammering out excuses about why they COULN'T be held responsible for anything.

As long as there's someplace left to hide.

11. Don't forget that most conservatives claim that there are no
Dems/Liberals that support the military - ergo, neither Dems nor Liberals are in uniform over there (I know this isn't true).

Ergo, all the people involved in giving the green light to the abuse of the POWs (and therefore the covering up) are Bush backers/Freepers/Dittoheads.

9. Don't forget the Farrelly Brothers
Yes, Kathleen Parker is a moron ... she's dumb and dumber all rolled into one ...

http://www.townhall.com/columnists/kathleenparker/kp20040508.shtml

<snip>

The images from Abu Ghraib, now irreversibly tattooed on the Arab brain, were every frat-house cliche magnified. The human pyramid, males mooning, masturbation, bags over heads. What we saw, at least in part, was "The Farrelly Brothers Do Baghdad."

How else to explain the giddy photographs of young soldiers mugging for cameras and giving the thumbs-up sign beside humiliated prisoners, naked and masturbating? Another Farrelly movie, "Dumb and Dumber," comes to mind

I don't want to overstate my case by insisting that the culture made 'em do it, but we'd be missing a few dots if we didn't admit that the culture that birthed our young soldiers has dumbed down the definition of human dignity.

The Farrelly Brothers - kings of the gross-out comedy film genre characterized by scatological humor and raunchy sex jokes - are convenient touchstones in the larger discussion about the debasing of American culture. In their side-splitter for the developmentally arrested, "There's Something About Mary," the male star gets his genitals stuck in a zipper. Later when he pleasures himself, he misplaces his "issue," which subsequently becomes hair gel for "Mary."

10. the du poll could only have 10 places, sorry if i offended your heroes.
but the point and value of this thread was to link sites where such nonsense is cast as deep thought from the right wing.

know your enemy and how he thinks.
