"Bomb, Bomb, Iran"

by JeffLieber

Thank the Lord we listened to the Republicans and bombed the shit out of Iran, at the cost of many billions, while shedding more American blood and further decimating our standing in the Muslim world!

I mean, honestly, had we not heeded the sage consul of such Conservative intellectual luminaries as Karl Rove and Rush Limbaugh and That Smirky Dude™ (y'know, the one who was President for the few minutes between the Clinton and Cheney administrations)...

...we would never have successfully traumatized a generation of Iranians (like we did their next door neighbor), because without doing so... without intimidating them with a well branded death march like "Shock And Awe II, Nucular Boogaloo"... we know it would be impossible for change to ever come to such a backward, insular region of the world, where the people have been so completely brainwashed by religion, that they're unable to stand-up for themselves and make their voices heard.

Seriously, I bow to President John "Beach Boys" McCain who has faithfully continued the War In Iran (and, before you say it, OF COURSE, I'm as disturbed as anyone about the awful but unavoidable photos of dead children and the rape scandal currently coming out of the detention camp in Tehran), because we now see that without such senseless loss of human life it'd not be possible for us to see images like THIS...



...coming out of Iran.

Here's hoping we've learned our lesson and follow their lead on health care reform!

1. They were talking so much about "bombing
Iran"..I was actually freaking out!

I had a dream about the people in Iraq the day before bush bombed Baghdad..there were people going about the business of living just like we do in our towns and cities.

2. She's so axis-y and evil-y with that sign.
Republicans always forget that actual people live in the Middle East.

3. Isnt it amazing how much the GOP invested in painting the Iranians as insane?
The thing that turned my stomach was that video during the RNC that started with "It all Began in Iran...." blah blah blah all this phony Iranians are evil bullshit just took a huge shot in the stomach.

4. Am I the only DU'er who will admit
that when that stupid song parody first came out during the Iranian hostage crisis, I thought it was funny.

It was a different time then (pre Ronnie) and it isn't funny in today's context.

But some of us were more naive then.
