Two People Debating the War:
“You communist inspired subversive!”
“I’m not a communist. I was a Boy Scout.”
“Get your head out of your ass.”
“Look. Abraham Lincoln was against the Mexican War as a congressman. I’ve never heard anybody call Abraham Lincoln a traitor.”
“Saddam lover!”
“I don’t love Saddam. I just thought there was a better, smarter way to go about this than Bush’s over-the-top, bombs away style.”
“You f…..’in horses’ ass.”
“You keep referring to the butt. Do you have a fetish about that?”
“Shithead!”
“Look. Mark Twain was critical of Americans invading the Philippines during the Spanish American War. He said he thought America was turning into a bully. I’ve never heard anybody call Mark Twain a traitor.”
“A frizzy, white-haired goddamn Marxist.”
“Why are you getting so mad? The Pope’s against the war too. The Pope’s not a bad man.”
“A foreign sonofabitch! You A-hole! They attacked us.”
“There you go, with that rectum thing again. Who are……..they? Al-Qaida did 9-11. The government hinted it has proof Baghdad was involved, but won’t show me the proof so I can get enthusiastic about the war. Why won’t they share if they want my support? The president didn’t ask for a formal declaration of war from Congress. Modern presidents don’t want to bother. Why do they ask for blind faith and give nothing in return?”
“In time of war, you support the president………sh’…t head!”
“What’s your hang-up with bodily functions?”
“You leftist bastard. The left hates America.”
“I’m not a leftist. I’m more conservative than Bush. He wanted to give illegal immigrants social welfare benefits. I wanted to keep ‘em out. But I think you’re right. The left does hate America, the America of the right wing. They (left) have their own view of what America should be. I don’t agree with the left, but I think they have a right to an opinion.”
“How can you say that? How can you say that?”
“It’s easy. I open my mouth and the words come out.”
“You should be fired from your job. There are consequences for your point of view.”
“Only mine. Not yours’.”
“I bet you love the Dixie Chicks.”
“Who are the Dixie Chicks?”
“That’s it. I’m gonna kick the sh’…t out of you.”
“Then, we have an understanding.”
