If Terrorists Beheaded a Bald Eagle and Burnt It In The Flag (1 Viewer)

Fox News would be awesome entertainment for months afterward, I can tell you that much. They would have an apoplectic orgasm on screen everyday.

 
My whole life I've been opposed to the idea of a military draft. Now I wonder if I've been wrong about that. It seems to me that the true litmus test of whether you believe in something is if you're willing to risk the lives of your own loved ones to defend it. How many of the "Hawks" would be so strident in their cries for military force if it were their own children going to war?

 
send in the drones!
I read this to the tune of "Send in the Clowns"
funny, I thought the same thing, so I added the exclamation point so it wouldn't be as similar.

The lyrics work better with drone

Isn't it rich? Are we a pair?

Me here at last on the ground, you in mid-air

Where are the drones?

Isn't it bliss? Don't you approve?

One who keeps tearing around, one who can't move

Where are the drones? There ought to be drones

Just when I'd stopped opening doors

Finally knowing the one that I wanted was yours

Making my entrance again with my usual flair

Sure of my lines, no one is there

Don't you love farce? My fault, I fear

I thought that you'd want what I want, sorry, my dear

But where are the drones, send in the drones

Don't bother, they're here

Isn't it rich? Isn't it queer?

Losing my timing this late in my career

But where are the drones? There ought to be drones

Well, maybe next year

Really? What makes you think the children of the right wing warmongers would actually end up at the sharp end of the spear? They'd either get deferments for religious reasons that let them live in mansions in Paris or get stashed in reserve units that were never going to be sent to the front. Even if they somehow actually got drafted their influential fathers would make sure they never had duty more hazardous then bringing coffee to the brass in the Pentagon.

 
What if they beheaded a bald American? I'd be PO'd if it was Matt Damon. I'd probably be mildly annoyed if it was Uncle Fester.

 
If Bin Laden had blown up the Magic Kingdom the war would have ended 14 years ago and Iraq would be made of Glass.

Symbolism is not to be underestimated.
