A Little Political Humor; At Hillarys Expense

I got this as email today and thought it was hysterical. I also thought it was worth passing along, and maybe some of you would get a chuckle also. For those of you that it offends......sorry :whistle:

**********************

Hillary Clinton (D-NY) has already started her 2008 presidential campaign by aligning herself with the military and pretending to be tough on terror. Fortunately, the ultra-liberal Hillary has yet to brainwash all of the voting public in to believing that her symbolism is really substance. Many have never forgotten that when she was co-president for eight years she was quoted as saying : " I loathe the military."
(read the message below the photo)

The picture shows that this soldier has been thru Survival School and learned his lessons well. He's giving the sign of "coercion" with his left hand. These hand signs are taught in survival school to be used by POW's as a method of posing messages back to our intelligence services who may view the photo or video. This guy was obviously being coerced into shaking hands with Hillary Clinton. It's ironic how little she knew that he would so inform us about the photo---perhaps because she's never understood our military to begin with.
If you consider that there have bee n an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theater of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of 2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000.
The rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 per 100,000.

That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in our Nation's Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq.........................Conclusion: We should immediately pull out of Washington D.C.!

Apart from the bullsh*t statistics at the end of the e-mail, that was worth a chuckle. ;)

I got this picture in an e-mail a few years ago when it happened. It was right after Bush had visited the troops at Thanksgiving for the photo-op with the plastic turkey. :blush: (needless to say I let the HRC photo pass.)

Misleading maybe, but bullsh*t they are not. The parameters are factual as presented, U.S. military deaths compared to Washington DC homicides. They are misleading because they don't account for Iraqi civilian fatalities nor do they account for the amount of wounded U.S. personnel. ;)

p.s. I was highly offended. :lol:

Therefore, as Elwood Blues would say, not lies - just bullsh*t. ;)

Are you kidding? Rumsfeld's last act was to make him a 5-star General. :P

Now if HRC was to become president (perish the thought) I would hope he'd have enough sense to be comfortably retired in a foreign land. ;)

Exactly - the statistics may be correct, but what they were attempting to prove with them was bullsh*t. ;)
