A U.S. Marine squad was marching north of Fallujah when they came upon an Iraqi terrorist, badly injured and unconscious.

On the opposite side of the road was an American Marine in a similar but
less serious state. The Marine was conscious and alert and as
first aid was given to both men, the squad leader asked the
injured Marine what had happened.

The Marine reported, "I was heavily armed and moving north along
the highway here, and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent.
We saw each other and both took cover in the ditches along the
road.

I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable, lowlife
scum bag who got what he deserved, and he yelled back that Ted
Kennedy was a fat, good-for-nothing, left wing liberal drunk who
didn't know how to drive, and Obama is an idiot .

So I said that Osama Bin Laden dresses
and acts like a frigid, mean-spirited lesbian.

He retaliated by yelling, "Oh yeah? Well, so does Nancy Pelosi!"

"And, there we were, in the middle of the road, shaking hands, when
a truck hit us."

Odd this "joke". Heard one similar on Beck the other day. They were yukking it up how THEY and the Iranians, who were protesting for the 30th anniversary of the hostage crises, actually agreed on Obama being a "dictator".

Apparently it's "okay" to compare yourself, even ally yourself to "enemies of America"...as long as your party is out of power?

Who knew?

You're pointing out the essential similarity between American Marines and Iraqi terrorists.

Pretty radical, aren't you? Aren't you worried that someone's going to get upset with you over this?

Beck would make a great mullah, no kidding.

"You're pointing out the essential similarity between American Marines and Iraqi terrorists."

Pointing out that it is usually possible for working folks to find common ground against corrupt leaders.

"Pretty radical, aren't you? Aren't you worried that someone's going to get upset with you over this?"

You must be new here.

Uh, yeah, because Obama, Pelosi and Kennedy are so essentially similar to bin Laden and Saddam Hussein.

Jesus, you're an idiot.

Jesus, you're an idiot.

And you're an overbearing, tight-assed prude that needs to catch the blue light special on a sense of humor.

As for Obama and Pelosi, they did fund the Bush Blunders, killing many thousands of people, both towel heads and Americans. I think their body count raining terror from the skies on the innocent probably exceeds that of bin Ladin.

As for Hussein, I think hindsight shows us that Big George and St. Bill were correct to leave him in place as bulwark against the Persian Empire rather than giving the useful parts of Iraq to the Ayatullahs.

Moshe, you're a moron:)

..I don't agree with you politically, or think your "joke" was funny. That must have been quite a blow to your bloated sense of self-worth, mustn't it? :)

Only an idiot, as I've already aptly described you, would suggest that Pelosi's or Obama's actions, however disappointing, rise to the level of the activities of the Bush Administration. For one thing, the Executive has a LEETLE more power to declare and conduct a war (or police action, etc.) than do individual members of the House and Senate. It's in the Constitution....you should look it up some time.

A "moron?" You fit that description much better than I do, Rabbi.

reJoinder:

I'm sure in the minds of Beck-heads (and a few here...ahem)....there is NO difference between Obama and a "dictator" and therefore see nothing wrong with AGREEING with a bunch of Iranian protestors shouting out anti-American diatribes.

Naturally, they'd flip entirely if it was a REPUBLICAN President and claim "Ha! See you LIBERALS, they sound just like you, don't they?"....when nary a person left-of-center would say anything supportive of the protestors.

Just shows how nuts the Right has gotten. Think they'd yuk it up with some staged Soviet protest against the "war-mongerer John Kennedy" or even Jimmy Carter back in the 60s/70s???

When they see Obama as more "dictatorial" than Bush and Cheney, you know they're either:

a) VERY stupid, or

b) engaging in 'I KNOW you are, but what am I?' playground stuff.

Kennedy would freak if he could see this stuff. He wouldn't recognize this country.

"..I don't agree with you politically, or think your "joke" was funny. That must have been quite a blow to your bloated sense of self-worth, mustn't it? :)"

Hardly. I'm used to Hopieheads defaulting to personal attacks.

27 of 47 Democratic senators voted for the Iraq authorization and congress appropriates the money to wage war. Obama voted for war funding, as did Pelosi and McCain. I'm sure you'ld like to excuse their behavior but I prefer reps like Kucinich and Paul who consistently vote against it.

"It's in the Constitution....you should look it up some time."

Congress alone has the power to declare war and has the power of the purse. Congress, this year, gave Obama $115b in off-budget supplemental funding for the wars and Obama, in his budget, has asked for another $130b. The wars don't get fought unless congress appropriates the money.

You make yhe standard Hopehead excuses for your little messiah and his enablers, similar to the ones trotted out by the Bushieheads all those years.

"A "moron?" You fit that description much better than I do, Rabbi."

You're an anti-Semite? So's Horus.

Actually, I was just mocking the joke, originally. I think you're at least as guilty of personal attacks as I am.

"Only an idiot, as I've already aptly described you, would suggest that Pelosi's or Obama's actions, however disappointing, rise to the level of the activities of the Bush Administration.

I don't dispute that. Neither of them, however, dispatched troops to the Middle East, bombed civilians, or conducted acts of torture. Bush and Cheney did. I in no way "excused their behavior," I just pointed out who was principally to blame, and how poor your comparison was.

"It's in the Constitution....you should look it up some time."

Congress alone has the power to declare war and has the power of the purse. Congress, this year, gave Obama $115b in off-budget supplemental funding for the wars and Obama, in his budget, has asked for another $130b. The wars don't get fought unless congress appropriates the money.

Again, you simply use Congress to excuse Bush's inexcusable actions, and attempt to spread the blame to them. Neither Obama nor Pelosi has the power to declare or fund wars all by themselves.

You make yhe standard Hopehead excuses for your little messiah and his enablers, similar to the ones trotted out by the Bushieheads all those years.

You make the standard, childish attacks on Obama and those who voted for him (and wasn't it you who was fussing above about personal attacks, too?).

"A "moron?" You fit that description much better than I do, Rabbi."

You're an anti-Semite? So's Horus.

Hmmm...if you're not Jewish, my apologies. If you are, then I think the sarcastic reference to you as a Jewish teacher or religious leader is perfectly valid. How it's "anti-Semitic" is beyond me. Maybe Horus (the Egyptian God?) could tell us..?

Speaking as a Viet Nam vet. and retired military:

That is a great joke,Thanks

Which is why I laugh every time I see the Obama bumper stickers with the peace signs on them. I'll be shocked if we are out of Iraq or Afghanistan before the end of Obama's first term, and mildly surprised if we are out of either before 2016.

"or conducted acts of torture. Bush and Cheney did."

Really? Surprised Obama isn't prosecuting them.

"You make the standard, childish attacks on Obama and those who voted for him (and wasn't it you who was fussing above about personal attacks, too?)."

My attacks on the Prince of Peace are exactly the same attacks I leveled at Little George for the same actions. As for those who voted for him, if they had followed his senate voting record instead of the bumper stickers they would have known what to expect from president Obama. War, deficits, corporate welfare, and the police state all continue. If you support that, well, it's a free country. I oppose those things, so feel entitled to belittle both the latest Chickenhawk in Chief and the gullible folks who fell for the talk.
