Subject: RE: BS: Should the Uk & US go to war with Iraq?
OK, I've re-read that Dixie Chicks rant three times now, gnu, thinking maybe I was missing something profound. Doesn't look like it. It does look like one of the least informed... just fucking idiotic statements I've heard in... well, weeks, I guess.

Since you parrot it so nicely, I'm guessing it was that anti-feminist article on the FoxNews site today got you all pumped up and bitchy, eh? The one that attacks liberals for not equating the brutal, but rather even-handed, treatment of women in secular Iraq, with the brutal, not-so-even-handed treatment of women in Taleb-controlled Afghanistan. Yeah, that makes sense.

And you know, genius, Iraq has it's own shitty pop stars without the Dixie Chicks. Yeah, that's right: They make music there, too. They make music in, oh, I dunno, EVERY country, believe it or not. But maybe it's nothing as impressive to you as the, uh, Dixie Chicks, and doesn't meet your incredibly high musical standards. Idiotic point. I wouldn't keep making it.

And who are these "good men are about to step up and take care of business in the name of freedom, liberty and justice for all?" YOU, you naïve fucking pussy? Oh, but you'll be cheering them on from your big ol' Canadian armchair, I know.

Seriously, dude, expand your fucking reading list a bit. And listen to some decent music. And stop watching SNL. It isn't fucking funny. And lay off the alcohol, dickweed.
