the funniest freeper email ever !! (i found it
Ok this one of those emails you know that gets sent once in awhile with some corny story how everyone that prays to god and are coservative are normal people and libruls are communists etc etc you know what im talking about.

Now what makes this perticular mail so fun (and possibly why they stopped sending it) is that this boy is nine(9) years old, and if this would been real he would have needed theraphy once his dad was through with him.

The best part is the end when the boy really flips out and starts shouting.

Anyway here it is for your enjoyment with help from arcane1




-snip-

The other day, my nine year old son wanted to know why we were at war. My husband looked at our son and then looked at me. My husband and I were in the Army during the Gulf War and we would be honored to serve and defend our country again today. I knew that my husband would give him a good explanation.

My husband thought for a few minutes and then told my son to go stand in our front living room window.

He told him: "Son, stand there and tell me what you see?"
"I see trees and cars and our neighbors houses" he replied.
"OK, now I want you to pretend that our house and our yard is the United States of America and you are President Bush."
Our son giggled and said "OK."

"Now son, I want you to look out the window and pretend that every house and yard on this block is a different country" my husband said.

"OK Dad, I'm pretending."

"Now I want you to stand there and look out the window and see that man come out of his house with his wife and he has her by the hair and is hitting her. You see her bleeding and crying. He hits her in the face, he throws her on the ground, then he starts to kick her to death. Their children run out and are afraid to stop him, they are crying, they are watching this but do nothing because they are kids and afraid of their father. You see all of this ok....What do you do?"

"Dad?"

"What do you do son?"

"I call the police, Dad."

"OK. Pretend that the police are the United Nations and they take your call, listen to what you know and saw but they refuse to help. What do you do then son?"

"Dad, but the police are supposed to help!" My son starts to whine.

"They don't want to son, because they say that it is not their place or your place to get involved and that you should stay out of it," my husband says.

"But Dad...he killed her!!" my son exclaims.

"I know he did...but the police tell you to stay out of it. Now I want you to look out that window and pretend you see our neighbor who you're pretending is Saddam turn around and do the same thing to his children."

"Daddy...he kills them?"

"Yes, son, he does. What do you do?"

"Well, if the police don't want to help, I will go and ask my next door neighbor to help me stop him." Our son says.

"Son, our next door neighbor sees what is happening and refuses to get involved as well. He refuses to open the door and help you stop him," my husband says.

"But Dad, I NEED help!!! I can't stop him by myself!!"

"WHAT DO YOU DO SON?"

Our son starts to cry.

"OK, no one wants to help you, the man across the street saw you ask for help and saw that no one would help you stop him. He stands taller and puffs out his chest. Guess what he does next son?"

"What Daddy?"

"He walks across the street to the old ladies house and breaks down her door and drags her out, steals all her stuff and sets her house on fire and then...he kills her. He turns around and sees you standing in the window and laughs at you. WHAT DO YOU DO?!!!"

"Daddy..."

"WHAT DO YOU DO?!!!"

Our son is crying and he looks down and he whispers, "I close the blinds, Daddy."

My husband looks at our son with tears in his eyes and asks him... "Why?"

"Because Daddy.....the police are supposed to help...people who needs it....and they won't help....You always say that neighbors are supposed to HELP neighbors, but they won't help either...they won't help me stop him...I'm afraid....I can't do it by myself...Daddy.....I can't look out my window and just watch him do all these terrible things and...and.....do nothing...so....I'm just going to close the blinds....so I can't see what he's doing........and I'm going to pretend that it is not happening."

I start to cry.

My husband looks at our nine year old son standing in the window, looking pitiful and ashamed at his answers to my husbands questions and he tells him...."Son,"

"Yes, Daddy."

"Open the blinds because that man....he's at your front door..."WHAT DO YOU DO?!!!!"

My son looks at his father, anger and defiance in his eyes. He balls up this tiny fists and looks his father square in the eyes, without hesitation he says: "I DEFEND MY FAMILY DAD!! I'M NOT GONNA LET HIM HURT MOMMY OR MY SISTER, DAD!!! I'M GONNA FIGHT HIM, DAD, I'M GONNA FIGHT HIM!!!!!"

I see a tear roll down my husband's cheek and he grabs my son to his chest and hugs him tight, and cries..."It's too late to fight him, he's too strong and he's already at YOUR front door son.....you should have stopped him BEFORE he killed his wife. You have to do what's right, even if you have to do it alone, before......it's too late." My husband whispers.

THAT scenario I just gave you is WHY we are at war with Iraq.

When good men stand by and let evil happen is the greatest EVIL of all.



Our President is doing what is right. We, as a free nation, must understand that this war is a war of humanity. WE must remove this evil man from power so that we can continue to live in a free world where we are not afraid to look out our window and see crimes on humanity. So that my nine year old son won't grow up in a world where he feels that if he just "closes" that blinds the atrocities in the world won't affect him.

"YOU MUST NEVER BE AFRAID TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT! EVEN IF YOU HAVE TO DO IT ALONE!"
BE PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!
BE PROUD OF OUR PRESIDENT!
BE PROUD OF OUR TROOPS!!
SUPPORT THEM!!!
SUPPORT AMERICA!!
SO THAT IN THE FUTURE OUR CHILDREN WILL NEVER HAVE TO CLOSE THEIR BLINDS...."

End of email.

1. LOL...
no mention of the fact that in the process of stoping the man, you end up killing several of his children when you could have stopped it by killing none.

3. Classic straw man argument
Edited on Sat Oct-11-03 04:46 PM by JackSwift
and false analogy. Might just as well say Bush is that guy killing his wife. This is why the right wing is so vehemently against any education that teaches basic logic principles. You know, I've heard that the freepers resent that we think they are stupid. They must be filled with resentment.

And never mind that half the evil daddies on the block do this, and we only "rescue" the families that have oil and take the oil for ourselves. And never mind that the evil daddy is our hero daddy's past business partner and that we arranged a forced marriage with his "wife" in the first place because he promised us that he would sell us her family oil dowry.

4. What an idiotic analogy
Worst part is that his kid is going to grow up just like Daddy.

I'm sorry.

I really wish I could agree with you, but I know too much about how some of the people around me were 'raised'.

11. Oh, yes, don't forget that, not only are you calling the cops on
the guy (murdering his wife) 20 years after the fact, you also find out that "Dad" has known this for 20 years and yet was drinking buddies with him until he forgot to return "Dad's" mower.

13. Not quite..
THIS has to be the most nauseating Repuke post ever!

It's not only disgusting, but freaking blasphemous! I'm not even a Christian, and I'm offended! Read it at your risk...

**********************************************************************
At a recent Soldiers Breakfast held at Redstone Arsenal, AL, Sergeant Major of the Army Jack Tilley shared the following story. (The vignette was captured by James Henderson, Association of the U. S. Army Redstone Huntsville Chapter Chaplain. Please distribute far and wide . . . it is worth sharing!!)

He (SMA Jack Tilley) described one such recent visit to our wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Medical Center in Washington that I (Chaplain Henderson) will never forget.

The Special Forces soldier had lost his right hand and suffered severe wounds of his face and side of his body. As SMA Tilley described, how do you honor such a soldier, showing respect without offending? What can you say or do in such a situation that will encourage and uplift? How do you shake the right hand of a soldier who just lost his? Finally he told how he acted as though the man had a hand, taking his wrist as though it were his hand and speaking encouragement to him.

But he said there was another man in that group of visitors who had even brought his wife with him to visit the wounded who knew exactly what to do. This man reverently took this soldier's stump of a hand in both of his hands, bowed at the bedside and prayed for him. When he stood from praying he bent over and kissed the man on the head and told him he loved him.

What a powerful expression of love for one our wounded heroes! And what a beautiful Christ-like example! What kind of man would kneel in such humility and submission to the Living God of the Bible?

It was George W. Bush, President of the United States and Commander in Chief of our Armed forces, a man who understands and follows his chain of command, a leader God has given us.

16. HA HA! Sure.
And then Shrub handed the soldier a bill for his meals and explained why there was no extra combat pay, right?

17. I never once heard any of the Republicans that I know say a thing about
Saddam's brutalities until this year when they wanted their war.

Some of them also said that the UN should remove Milosevic - they would not support Clinton's actions in Kosovo. When my husband and I pointed out that Milosevic had previously used the UN people as human shields, they had never heard of it, and stuck to their opinion that the US or NATO should not be involved.

I know for a fact that the ones I know have never once given money to international humanitarian causes like Doctors Without Borders and I have never once heard any of them express concern about any human rights abuses or murderous dictators.

Total hypocrites.

19. The birth of a RW nut ...
I agree this never happened. The language (of the child) is to adult to have come from a child that asked the question to begin with.

You can bet that if this occurred, this poor child would probably turn out to be the asshole neighbor that some people have to deal with.

Cheers
