A while back I posted a Letter From France. Pierre took exception to what I wrote and posted the following comment.
Hi,
You guys are so funny,
someone does not agree with youm and suddenly it's terrible, treason, "send back the statue" oh boy, it's about time to grow.
You are defending democraty, by saying "you are with or you are an ennemy" what kind of bullshit is that?
do you know this sentence from Voltaire (sorry he was french) WHO SAID "I might not agree with you but I will defend your right to go against me to the death"
Meditate a bit on that before spitting out your ignorance of what a democraty is!
Bye,
Pierre
Dontcha just love to be lectured to by the French?
Pierre, you can say anything that you want in this country. I have that freedom also. For example, I can say that you are a dumb fucking asshole. I can also say that about my president. But, I hear in France, if you call Jackoff Chiraq a dumb fucking asshole, you can be fined. So tell me again which country has freedom of speech? And, dammit, if you're gonna quote Voltaire, at least get the quote right.
Many writers pay tribute to many great thinkers thus Voltaire is not the only philosopher that has contributed to freedom of the pen. For example John Stuart Mill made a historic and classic statement of freedom of speech and press in 1859 in his essay on Liberty. But, no one has been quoted more than Voltaire. "I disagree with everything you say, Voltaire wrote to Helevetius, " but I will fight to the death for your right to say it." This right represents our right to the greatest opportunity to learn the Truth.
I'm sorry. I cannot imagine any Frenchman fighting to the death for any principle. It's about as likely as Bill Clinton's pledge to fight and die for Israel. Shit. He wouldn't even fight for his own country. The only fighting he did, other than with Hillary, was fighting to avoid the draft. Fucking draft dodging asshole.
Someone else took exception to what Pierre wrote and pointed out that we are a constitutional republic not a 'democraty'. So PJ got into the act.
Sorry,
I don't understand the aim of your email.
How the fact that US is a constitutional republic changes anything? I know that you don't vote for your president but for grands electeurs (washington didn't trust the population?)
I don't have time to explain our Constitution, but in short, the electoral college was designed to prevent large states like Texas and California, from dominating small states like Rhode Island.
Your administration is still acting as a bully, and France say "hold on, think about the mess you are creating", nothing wrong about it. You could say that to someone in your family, right?.
We did not start this war, but we will finish it. Just get the fuck out of our way and quit being so annoying. And I wouldn't like a Frenchman in my family. Y'all seem to be allergic to soap.
Also, don't you find weird the multiple attack warning of dear Ashcroft, every time the population starts to get a rest?. I was in the US for few years, and I am not sorry to be back home, I felt that your society was getting over-securized to the point the civil liberties don't exist anymore.
One of the reasons he's doing this, is, if we are a victim of another 9/11 and we haven't been warned, the goddam leftists in this country, like Cynthia McKinney, will be screaming about why we didn't take any action. And we still have more civil liberties than any other country, including France, on this planet. And by golly, we're watching out for them. That's why I'm a Liberty Dog.
As a proof, see the reaction of the public simply because we disagree. i don't mind you have a different idea, that's quite healthy, so what do we have to kill each other because of that?
We don't mind you disagreeing. It's the fact that you are in our way and are against us. By your actions, you have allied yourself with Saddam Hussein. Your president, Jackoff Chiraq, is doing everything in his power to sabotage our war effort. Our president said that in the war on terror you are either with us or with the terrorists. You are with the terrorists. But what what else would I expect from a country full of cowards.
I like the US for many aspects, but being a superpower means also showing the example, and tha's quite difficult certainly.
Bye now,
PJ
And one of the examples we're showing is that if you fuck with us, you will die. And PJ, what would you think if this would happen? Thanks to Ralph Gizzup who sent me this image.
The bad thing about this is you wouldn't know whom to surrender to.
What the rest of the world, and many of our less intelligent and misguided citizens cannot get through their heads is that war was declared on us. It started with the first WTC bombing. It escalated with the embassy bombings and the USS Cole. We had a pussy for a president and just like Jimmah Carter all he could do was make empty threats. The only reason he sent off those cruise missiles to Afghanistan and Sudan was to distract us from Monica. We now have an actual leader (instead of a poll taker) as our president, and 9/11 was the last fucking straw.
And one more thing. Here is a major splatter alert. Put down anything you are drinking. Swallow. Now click on this link. Thanks to Kim du Toit for providing it. I gotta put this guy on my blogroll.
Talk to y'all tomorrow. Gotta go watch more of the war.
