A confused Republican email

"Quite an interesting perspective considering that the coward terrorists do their business out of civilian neighborhoods. They hide there and fight there just so bleeding hearts idiots around the world will take their side against the actual victims of the terrorism. I suppose we deserved the World Trade Center. Did you know Hezbollah bragged responsibility for several acts against the US including the Beirut bombing of our military base? I find it absolutely amazing that the freedoms our country has bestowed upon us can yield such total ungratefulness and irresponsible thought processes. I could go on forever with this, as I'm sure you could but it seems that somewhere in your consciousness you should find the morsel of truth that you a blessed to be free and many people have sacrificed and are presently sacrificing for that freedom. Maybe you would be happier in a theocratic monocracy where you wouldn't have the pressures of these decisions." -Dean Pullicin

MY RESPONSE:

Ooh, you people are so angry! Wow, calm down. You're angry at people who care "bleeding hearts." Your radical anger is the same mentality of the terrorists. And now you're saying "I suppose we deserved the World Trade Center." I can't believe the un-patriotic words that come from some Americans. Speaking of the WTC, did you know how much Republicans spent on the investigation of the collapse? $600,000 The 9/11 Commission: $15 million. Still nothing compared to what Republicans spent on investigating Clinton's sex life: $65 million! Many great

American heroes sacrificed their lives for the freedoms we now have. The American Revolution, the Civil War, even the world wars have some credibility. But Korea? Vietnam? Gulf? Iraq? Who was liberated in those wars? The only people liberated in Iraq were the big oil companies and Halliburton. Opertaion Iraqi Liberation (OIL)! It's completely disgusting that people use "freedom" and "terror" to defend a corporate war where thousands of Americans suffer for no reason at all. Now that's something to get angry about.
