    Default I just feel like vomiting a little bit...

    http://www.newsmax.com/archives/arti...1/114330.shtml

    Seriously, I don't know how that site is (Got the link from a friend), I can't say I find it vey serious given things like "Commie-Free Zone in La-La Land", "Bush Won't Testify Alone, but Neither Did Clinton", but still...

    ...does someone feel like they can agree with this piece of crap? Supposedly called article, more like a very absurd piece of irrationally probably written under the effects of some kind of hallucinogen mushroom mixed with vodka and aspirines, watching a Monty Python movie while hanging upside down getting spanked by some dominatrix dressed in a racoon suit that shouts in a dialect between guarani and russian while breathing fire. And I could go on, but you more or less guess what I mean.

    Now, seriously, this whole thing was posted in a Spanish forum, along with an article that talked about a campaign wanting to boicot Spanish products, including "burritos" and "nachos". Now, seriously, we all know the whole freedom fries and liberty toast was terribly stupid, but a burrito boicot because of Spain leaving the war is more like the summum of idiocy. I feel sorry those little people are giving such a bad image of USA in Spain. At this rate everyone will start believing the whole "red neck" stereotype as a general rule, or something.

    Wow, it seems that our culture is going backwards rather than making progress.

    Take care all.

    Ah, one online tabloid hardly represents our culture. A few nutjobs ranting about something or other don't degrade civilization. Now, when the nutjobs start AGREEING with what's goin' on, THAT's when we should worry.

    I agree, the radicals in the world have the loudest voice, but they don't represent everyone. And if some American guy decides not to buy Spanish products, why do you even care? People can buy whatever they want.

    So far as all that babbling about socialism, I have no idea what the guy is talking about.

    Besides, burritos and nachos aren't even Spanish foods, are they?

    Anyways, ignore that. It's pointless and baseless and just some random screaming from the peanut gallery.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    Nope, thats the best part

    I don't care, I just find it silly.

    So far as all that babbling about socialism, I have no idea what the guy is talking about.
    It's the best part of the article, really:

    The deposed Soviet Socialists have never gotten over their failure and are hoping to regain power in Russia to once more be powerful against the United States."
    Yes, it's THEIR SECRET PLAN!!! Does someone remember that Simpsons episode where the Soviet Union returns all of a sudden? Same thing!

    Fidel Castro is a socialist enemy of the U.S., President Chavez of Venezuela is another socialist enemy of the United States. So it is only natural that Spain's new Prime Minister socialist Jose Zapatero does not want to help the U.S. in its fight against terrorism and pulled out Spain's troops from Iraq
    OK, so he compares Zapatero to Fidel and Chavez. Uh...they have like..nothing to do with each other. Zapatero is a moderate social democrat, Fidel is a so called communist leader that speaks very well and is a megalomaniac, and Chavez is...an ape.

    China is a huge socialist country bigger than the Soviet Union and it is busy using U.S. trade profits to buy attack submarines, tanks, planes and other war equipment from Russia.
    ...yes, very socialist but with classes and right to private property. Actually, China seems to combine the worst of everything.

    It looks as if China is preparing for war buying attack submarines and other war equipment.
    *suspense music*

    CONSPIRATION

    And my favourite part!!!


    Chinese Defense Minister General Chi Haotian said publicly: "War [with the United States] is inevitable; we cannot avoid it. The issue is that the Chinese armed forces must control the initiative in this war. We must be prepared to fight for one year, two years or even longer." [Newsmax 4-9-2001].
    Really? Well, taking a quote like that, I can make something similar. Just add the eliptic referent in parentesis based on your preferences. Example:

    "Listen to the night, more inmense without her [his sheep]"
    -Pablo Neruda, Poem XX, "20 poemas de amor y una canción desesperada"

    Conclusion: Neruda is into bestiality.


    Hah-HA! I'm a genious!

    Angry OMG!!!

    This....can't....be....real!


    Boycott Spain because they didn't help the U.S.?!?! This Wilson C. Lucom guy has no idea what he is saying. This line "you are either with us or against us in our fight against terrorism" is really getting old.


    "Fidel Castro is a socialist enemy of the U.S., President Chavez of Venezuela is another socialist enemy of the United States."

    Is there anyone whos NOT a socialist enemy?


    "So it is only natural that Spain's new Prime Minister socialist Jose Zapatero does not want to help the U.S. in its fight against terrorism and pulled out Spain's troops from Iraq"

    so its only natural to hate someone just because they don't want to help the U.S.??? THeres something wrong here.


    Is this guy serious? Or is this some sick joke?

    NewsMax is about as trustworthy of a news site as the Weekly World News. Don't worry about it.

    Tabloid or not, this guy is an idiot. Did he even pass second grade English? His journalistic skills are atrocious. One more raving lunatic to add to the bunch.

    I agree with you there Zaphier. We are not reading the work of a well respected and experienced journalist. We are reading absolute crap.

    "China still wants to rule the world as a Socialist World"

    Right, not only does that read terribly, its totally false. Definitely not worth worrying about.

    What everyone else said.

    And besides, Spain rocks. I'd go back there again in a hearbeat, if I had the chance.

    Why do some people act as if some extremist's ramblings are going to become next week's foreign policy? It's just some jerk with too much time on his hands.

    So what? Just ignore him, and he'll go away.

    For every rambling extremist like this, there's another one who's saying that the US is owned by Satan and wants to enslave the world to put everyone on intravenous Coke while genetically altering their bodies to produce oil.

    Just laugh at this imbecile, let him be deluded and national socialistic, and be glad that he's merely submitting his scribblings to an internet tabloid with no genuine authority.

    Really, that column would've been amusing if he wasn't so sickeningly serious.
