For those ofyou who truly don't get it....

"Clarification" by Dennis Miller

All the rhetoric on whether or not we should go to war against Iraq has got my insane brain spinning like a roulette wheel. I enjoy reading opinions from both sides, but I have detected a hint of confusion from some of you. As I was reading the paper recently,I was reminded of the best advice someone ever gave me. He told me about the KISS ("Keep it simple, Stupid!") so, with this as a theme, I'd like to apply this theory for those who don't quite get it. My hope is that we can simplify things a bit and recognize s few very important facts.
Here are ten things to consider when voicing an opinion on this important issue:

1. Between President Bush and Saddam Hussein-Hussein is the Bad Guy.
2. If you have faith in the United Nations to do the right thing, keep this in mind-they have Libya heading the Committee on Human Rights, and Iraq heading the Global Disarmament Committee. Do your own math here.
3. If you use Googie Search and type in "French military victories" your reply will be "Did you mean French military defeats?"
4. If you only anti-war slogan is "No war for oil!" sue your school district for allowing you to slip through the cracks and robbing you of the education you deserve.
5. Saddam and Bin Laden will not seek United Nations approval before they try to kiss us.
6. Despite common belief, Martin Sheen is not the president. He only plays one on TV.
7. Even if you are anti-war, you are still an "Infidel" and Bin Laden wants you dead, too.
8. If you believe in a "Vast Right Wing Conspirary" but not in the danger that Hussein poses, quiet hanging out with the Dell computer dude.
9. We are not trying to liberate them.
10. Whether you are for military action or against it, our young men and women overseas are fighting for us-to defend our right to speak out.
We all need to support them without reservation.

Thanks for posting sir dennis, honorman!

Presenting truth in a humorous way is what good comedians do best, and dennis miller is certainly a good comedian. I especially enjoyed #4--I don't know how many times I've heard or seen this shockingly simplistic catch phrase. Seriously, I find much of the rhetoric on both sides to be so inane, it's offensive.

anyway, thanks for the comedy.
