Please Tell Me He’s Joking

12:31 am EST November 24th, 2006 | News | 24 Comments

This idiot at "The Jawa Report" is blaming the recent explosion of violence in Iraq… on the Democrats. Of course, this same gang of right-wing idiots was blaming the war before the election on the terrorists trying to get Democrats elected. Somehow the violence is never a result of the fact that their president invaded Iraq and botched the occupation for over three years now. Dumbasses. Thank God we took control of the Senate and House before they totally run this country of ours into the ground with their stupidity.

UPDATE: Rob Port idiotically says it’s also the media’s fault for not being “balanced” because a giant bombing is exactly of the same news value as a repainted school somewhere.

    No I’m not blaiming the war on idiots like you I’m blaming the spike in violence on a campaign that began the day of the election. If you actually read the jihadi’s propaganda you would know. It is no coincidence that the deadliest attack ever sice the start of the war follows Nancy Pelosi’s promise of a pullout. The terrorist say so. So I know it’s hard to accept that your idea blew up in your face and resulted in the death of 202 people. But it’s try and that’s why it hurts. Idiot

  2. Riiiight. I’ll never be dumb enough to be a conservative. You broke it, we bought it.

  3. Howie says:

    Correction true and that’s why it hurts. Thanks for the link by the way. And have a nice day, the bloodbath you ordered has arrived. Enjoy!

  4. S says:

    Howie, to clarify:

    The whole is in the ground; you’re sitting on your ass.

  5. Lemme get this straight: It hurts that you’re blaming the consequences of Republican proposed and prosecuted policies on Democrats? I thank you for writing the stuff you do because otherwise I’d have to make it up and it would be less believable.

  6. Howie says:

    Yes without me you would not be riding that thread at meme now would you? Don’t underestimate the Power of The Dark Side.

  7. Quaker in a Basement says:

    So Mr. Port comes a-calling?

    For those here who lack the inclination to wander over to his joint, here’s a sample:

    First, it is clearly an effort by the terrorists to further undermine the representative government in Iraq and foment civil war. That’s all this is. The terrorists attack, and then sit back and hope the Shiites blame the Sunnis (and vice versa) so that there will be fighting and chaos.

    Brilliant, isn’t it? Let’s give him a hand. Without his unique brand of conservative wisdom, I doubt any of us would have ever realized that the people blowing stuff up want to fight!

    But, of course, they only began wanting to fight on November 7, right, Howie? Up until then, they were all cowering in their little spider holes praying that the bad, bad Republicans wouldn’t come and “bring them to justice.”

    Isn’t that how your astigmatic view of current events goes?

  8. Quaker in a Basement says:

    Yes without me you would not be riding that thread at meme now would you?

    Can anyone here translate this?

    Soytenly. He said: «Duh..wah..buhh..huh..»

  10. frameone says:

    “If you actually read the jihadi’s propaganda you would know.”

    And if you actually refused to respond to jihadi propaganda in the exact manner that they want you to, you wouldn’t be such an idiotic tool.

  11. Quaker in a Basement says:

    Howie, here’s an alternative interpretation.

    What happened on November 8? The President fired his Secretary of Defense, of course.

    Now which event do you think is more likely to “embolden the terrists”?

    a) A woman is elected as the leader of the majority party in a legislative body, (one that the President of the U.S. routinely ignores), or

    b) The top military official is fired after three years of failing to stifle the insurgency?

    The truth is, I don’t think either of these events have anything to do with the timing or intensity of the recent bombing. In case you hadn’t noticed, this was just the latest in a long series of attacks, some large, some small.

    What’s especially nutty is the notion put forth by Mr. Port that the bombings can be attributed to a shadowy third party, entirely separate from the sectarian factions on the ground in Baghdad–as if the Sunnis and Shiites would’t be blowing each other to bits anyway.

  12. frameone says:

    “… as if the Sunnis and Shiites would’t be blowing each other to bits anyway.”

    That’s what’s wrong with these so-called “serious” conservatives. They went into Iraq thinking we’d be greated as liberators, in total denial of the age old ethnic and religious tensions that Hussein’s brutal regime had been sitting on for decades. Now they want to blame the violence we have let loose on the US media or the US election cycle, as if there was no historical context for what we are seeing.

    They are total idiots.

  13. Quaker in a Basement says:

    They’re blowing each other up because they hate Bush.

  14. Howie says:

    So can you tell me the hallmarks of an al-Qaeda/Mujahdeen Shura Council/Islamic State of Iraq bombing and then show me how this one differs?

    And Quakers solution

    “blame the violence we have let loose”

    on Bushmchitlerhellibacon.

    You are right about one thing you sure are letting it loose.

    [begin sarcasm]Bring the troops home now there is a bloodbath I want to see in Iraq. Oh what about the Iraqi’s who will die? Screw them. I want them to hate America just like My paymaster Mr. Sorros.[end sarcasm]

    So have I got that about right?

  15. Duros62 says:

    No, Howie, you left out the part where you’re an idiot and one thing does not necessarily have anything to do with the other.
    When are you and your kind going to figure out that Extremist Muslim fundamentalists don’t orchestrate their actions based on how it will play in America? I’m pretty sure they have their own reasons for doing what they’re doing, and who gets to be speaker of the freakin’ House of Representatives has naught to do with it.
    A chemical plant blew up in massachusetts last week; you wanna blame the Democrats for that too? It is a blue state, after all.

  16. Quaker in a Basement says:

    You’re quoting a quote, Howie.

    See how I put that part in italics? That means I was cut-and-pasting from somebody else’s post. (I would have thought that a big-time blogger like you would have picked up on that.)

    Anyway, no, you don’t have that about right. Or even partly right. The bloodbath you refer to isn’t something that will happen later and only after the withdrawal of American troops. The fantasy that the long-standing sectarian hatreds fueling the violence only came to exist on November 7 is the baldest sort of political hackery.

    So take your little attempts at sarcasm and run along, OK?

  17. midderpidge says:

    Howie, if the war and subsequent occupation had been waged with any kind of competence we wouldn’t be having this discussion. So trying to blame the failure of Bush’s Iraq plan to secure peace in Iraq on a newly elected and not in power Democratic legislature is a dishonest at best.

  18. Quaker in a Basement says:

    Austin Bramwell disagrees with you, Howie.

    And who is Austin Bramwell? No less than the recently resigned director and trustee of the bible of conservatism, the National Review.

    Here’s a tasty sample:

    Never mind the conflation of “Arab radicalism”—presumably a reference to Ba’athism—with bin Laden’s Muslim jihadism (how would discrediting Saddam’s ideology discourage bin Laden’s?), the allusion to Hussein rewarding the families of Palestinian suicide bombers (how does terrorism in Israel threaten the United States?), or the assumption that foreign terrorists are driving the insurgency in Iraq (if Iraqis hate the relatively benign Americans, why would they turn over their country to a bunch of foreign wackos?). Let us observe only that the conservative movement’s best argument for staying in Iraq is that jihadists “will be perceived” differently, for “it will be clear” that they are harming Muslims at large. In short, if all goes well, the occupation of Iraq might just produce a useful propaganda victory. War as propaganda: surely this is the thinking of clownish dictators rather than mature analysts.

  19. frameone says:

    Jesus, you’re a moron, howie.

    The terrorists step up their attacks when they want the dems to win/They step up their attacks because the dems have won.

    The terrorists are attacking to weaken our resolve/They are attacking us because our resolve is weakened.

    The terrorists atep upi their attacks to influence our election/The terrorists step up their attacks because have been influenced by our election.

    Every time the violence increases you morons come up with a new, almost completely contradictory motivation for it.

    None of your rhetoric is consistent. It doesn’t make a bit of fucking internal sense except on one level: The only enemy you really care about attacking are Democrats and liberals.

    And even there, it’s patently obvious that you are stitching your fantasy together as you go along.

  20. Nimrod Gently says:

    Why are we talking to this guy? I’d be very surprised if he ever had a thought of his own in his life. He can’t even articulate the talking points properly. He could at least try to make them seem internally consistent and logical, like Jay.

  21. Howie says:

    “can anyone translate that for me?”

    Yeah sure it means Oliver is my bitch.

  22. Nimrod Gently says:

    Great, another level of bizarre and disturbing. We needed that.

  23. Quaker in a Basement says:

    Thanks for visiting, Howie. This has been amusing. We must get together again sometime.

    Like 2043.

    I’m stealing that, NG.
