Was I too nuanced for you?  Don't hold back; let's hear "What . . . the left
consider[s] should be done in the 'War on Terror'?"

This'll be Lawrence giving the argument all the seriousness it deserves. 

 

I can take being ridiculed Lawrence. Can you?

 "Biff," take that.  "Zonk" "oof"

 

I've been discussing things as elaborately as the subject matter seems to
deserve.  

 

"kick," "take that you dirty conservative."  "Bonk" "ouch!"

 

Well, yes, tis true.  I'm not terribly impressed with the Left's ability to
reason.  I may have let that drop now and again.  They don't seem able to
develop an argument and support it very well.  

 

"Oh yeah.  Says who?  Who do you think you are?  You just think you are
soooo tough.  Former Marine, guns & stuff, makes me soooo sick!"

 

As I indicated, I have read a number of people from the Left who apply full
blame on the US for 9/11.  Think Ward Churchill.   

 

"You leave poor Ward alone.  What did he ever do to you?  You hate Indians
don't you, don't you, go on admit it.  Afraid to, aren't you?  Just as I
thought:  No guts."

 

Does the Left have something positive to offer about what should be done in
the War against Terror?  It sounds rather hard to believe.  No fair assuming
the destruction or the disbanding of the U.S. or the destruction of Israel.

 

"Think you're soooo smart, don't you?  Well I'm here to tell you, you don't
know half of what you think you do, no not a quarter -- not even an eighth
or a sixteenth -- not a thirty second or a sixty forth . . . not a gaa gaaa
gaaaa
