| Politics: Left, Right, and Center National, state, regional, and local politics. Who's doing what to whom, and what you can do about it. How-to-get-action messages are encouraged. "How the government fucked up my life" stories are encouraged. Sharing new methods for cheating on taxes is encouraged. Sample "letters to congresscritters" are encouraged. Apathy and "I can't do anything" posts are discouraged. Left, right, centrist, or any other form of political-economic systems are all up for discussion. Be prepared to defend yourself, or at least have a good line of bullshit ready. Extensive quoting of economists and philosophers is frowned upon. We want to hear what YOU have to say, not what some constipated, impotent, dead guy dreamt up while suffering from the DT's over a hundred years ago thought. |

Which situation best describes the current situation with Iraq, weapons of mass destruction and the theatening language coming out of Washington?
Gunfight at the OK Corral or a South Central LA drive-by?

Re: Describe USA versus Iraq
Neither of the above.
It's called, Live up to your agreement Iraq (Saddam) or you're going down.
This is more closely akin Matt Dillon (of Gunsmoke fame) arresting the bad guy.

Re: Describe USA versus Iraq
Or an episode of COPS, where the stupid black guy runs half-naked through a bunch of thorny bushes and hides under a kiddie pool, only to be sniffed out by a german shepherd and have the shit kicked out of him by five officers.

Re: Describe USA versus Iraq
Both actually. The OK corral was a vendetta, as are drive-bys.
The real question is - which metaphor will best represent the RESULT?

Re: Describe USA versus Iraq
I have a feeling that some of the posters here think that the only person in Iraq is Saddam.

A beast with no head, running around trampling a village, looking for the one bad guy inside 26 palaces.

You shouldn't be so vulgar, Joe. You're coming off as sexually frustrated.

Why do you say that? Because every word I said is true, and you can't deny it?

Re: Describe USA versus Iraq
Joe and Mouse,
There were three posts that I just deleted, one was mine. I know that Mouse knows what I'm talking about and Joe you should too.
All of us can spit on each other, do it politely.

The term "Phoney War" is applicable to the current situation.

I'm not sure who this is directed at, but when a single man; directs the actions of his nation, and his people don't unseat him... what's the difference? |

If the bullets/bombs start flying. At the moment it seems to be more of a psychological war between the two leaders. |

Hussein has completely capitulated now, since Bush was authorized to use force.
