This was just sent to me by a friend of mine, i thought it was hilarious. Just so you know, this friend of mine was recently appointed to the United States Naval Academy, and his father was a marine, as was mine. So before everyone flames up with their "no blood for oil" crap, try to remember who's on the other side of the world, fighting for your right to protest. Remember who the real role models are; the ones over in the middle of the desert, fighting for the freedom of a people, not the ones playing a bleeding heart president on tv and thinking that gives you priviledge over the rest of us. Well, now that Im off my soap box, here's what my boy sent me:
Name: In faith matters, the Vatican seems intent on discarding
Augustine's just war theory -- a commitment held by the majority
of Christianity for some 1,600 years. Pope John Paul II this
week dispatched Cardinal Pio Laghi to the U.S., where he met with
President Bush, presenting him with an open letter from the Pope
enumerating the Vatican's moral objections to war with Iraq.
Name: The Vatican cited that it would be "immoral, illegal, unjust"
for the U.S. to engage in military action against Iraq -- apart
from UN approval. President Bush responded, saying, "Well, I just
disagree that we need to get UN permission to protect ourselves."
Name: The Vatican, it seems, doesn't have a sense of the morality of
personal protection; be it protecting U.S. citizens from terrorist
threats, or protecting young boys from homosexual pederasts.
Name: And here is yet another example of why we really like House
Majority Leader Tom DeLay.... "I was at a celebration of India's
Independence Day," Delay remarked recently, "and a Frenchman came
walking up to me and started talking to me about Iraq, and it was
obvious we were not going to agree. And I said, 'Wait a minute.
Do you speak German?' And he looked at me kind of funny and said,
'No, I don't speak German.' And I said, 'You're welcome,' turned
around and walked off."
