Somebody HATES AMERICA

Hussein says USA should invade Zimbabwe

Isn't he the same guy who reportedly dropped the following pearls of wisdom? "As I've said about the flag pin, I don't want to be perceived as taking sides, there are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song 'I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing.' If that were our anthem, then I might salute it."

Looks like your link is broken, Con. The article it points to says something completely different :

The candidate says the runoff election scheduled Friday should be put off until it can be conducted “under a strong international monitoring presence and, to the extent possible, meaningful civil protection.”

If that is impossible, Obama said Tuesday,“regional leaders backed by the international community should pursue an enforceable, negotiated political transition in Zimbabwe to make sure Mugabe goes.”


The US Ambassador to Zimbabwe sounds like a dangerous man, too : he's saying the same things as Obama :

McGee said the Southern African Development Community, and South Africa as a leading member of that bloc, should speak out with words as “firm and as hard-hitting” as Monday’s U.N. Security Council statement.

Zimbabwe’s neighbors may have more influence than the U.N., McGee said, adding that Zimbabwe is a landlocked country and vulnerable to actions such as border closings.

“Regional bodies have tremendous influence,” McGee said. “There are so many things that could be brought to bear, that could have a tremendous, immediate impact on the government of Zimbabwe.”


Bottom line : South Africa has to take Mugabe out behind the shed and beat the crap out of him. Figuratively of course.

Why figuratively? He deserves to have his balls cut off, literally.

People reported that Obama wanted the US to invade Zimbabwe? Then why didn't you link it?

9064. jexster - 6/30/2008 4:01:53 PM

Cause he's now making it a regular practice to make things up on his own, not content with simply repeating lies he receives through the ether

9065. jexster - 6/30/2008 4:02:13 PM

That's what we call American ingenuity

Why should I link it? Because you're too lazy to look for yourself? Sorry - that's not sufficient reason.

And rejexst: why don't you go intercourse something instead of making up lies about me?

9068. concerned - 7/2/2008 8:17:07 AM

Btw, any discussion here that George W. Bush has caused North Korea to destroy the cooling tower at its nuclear fuel enrichment facility?

This represents a huge step forward especially compared to the less than nothing that Xlowntoon accomplished wrt North Korea.

9069. alistairconnor - 7/2/2008 3:26:19 PM

Well gee, I googled the internets, "Obama invade Zimbabwe", and found nothing, not even a blog, suggesting that Obama said the US should invade Zimbabwe.

But Con can surely find us a link from places where Google can't reach. Like, out of his...

9070. concerned - 7/2/2008 9:35:05 PM

AC - you're out of your...

An invasion and occupation of Zimbabwe would be necessary to force independent elections, dimwit.

How appropriate! Bush heads for his last G-8. His first - his Sister SoulMan encounter with Putin...

Medvedev: The US Can Kiss My Russian Ass

MOSCOW — Russia’s new president, Dmitri A. Medvedev, less swaggering than his predecessor but as touchy about criticism from abroad, said in an interview that an America in “essentially a depression” was in no position to lecture other countries on how to conduct their affairs.

As soaring oil revenues bolster the Russian economy and Kremlin confidence, Mr. Medvedev brushed aside American criticism of his country’s record on democracy and human rights. He also declared that a revived Russia had a right to assume a larger role in a world economic system that he suggested should no longer be dominated by the United States.
