Splendid example!
Perhaps we should follow it by demanding the resignation of our current administration too!
We're going to need some torches, pitchforks, discount airline tickets to DC, tie dyed clothes, a few guitars, flowers, a big honkin PA, some weed....

Nononono.
When brown people far away violently demand the resignation of their government, that's Democracy.
When Americans do it in America, that's un-patriotic.

My, my. You folks are touchy these days.
Maybe all the sour grapes disagreeing with the ol' digestion? You on the Left sure haven't had many victories of your own lately.
The debate is over. Much of the continent of Asia wants democracy, and the force of the United States is there to back them up.
It's not that the Left in America don't get a vote. It's that you're outvoted. That's how democracy works. Get over it.
As for Asia, no, you don't get a vote. But the "brown folk" will, and you can't stop them.
Afghanistan - freed Iraq - freed Ukrainia - freed Lebanon - being freed Kyrgyzstan - being freed Belarus - demanding freedom Iran - demanding freedom Mongolia - [link|http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/2005/03/democracy-protests-in-mongolia.html|demanding freedom] Tibet - still demanding freedom, and we haven't forgotten Bahrain - [link|http://www.swissinfo.org/sen/swissinfo.html?siteSect=143&sid=5630248|demanding freedom] Saudi Arabia - government making gestures Egypt - government making gestures North Korea - rumors of unrest
It's a domino effect! If this keeps going, it'll reach southeast Asia. And then the boat people will get payback.
Say, what must they be thinking in Beijing? Two of these new uprisings are bordering territory they currently control.
Well, you still have oppression and chaos in South America and Africa. Take comfort in that while you may. The trend on this planet is strongly favoring democracy. The biggest continent is losing its fear of the thugs you love. And of the terrorists as well.
Better get down to Berkeley and barricade yourselves in. Do you have an underground bunker, by any chance? Better dig one now. Make sure you each have a cyanide capsule and a pistol handy. (Just run down the corner to the chemist for the cyanide, right Peter? But they only sell seven pound blocks...)

Not really, just recognising you for what you are.
The fact that you don't is not our problem.

So.
Are you going to invade?
Well, of course not; you're over-stretched as it is in Iraq.
Here's my list of countries that "you" (harharbasementdwelleristabattheeetc) will not invade:
1. Burma 2. Indonesia 3. North Korea 4. Iran 5. Tibet 6. China
All egregious human rights violators; all sans democracy in anything more than token form; all militarily substantially more capable than Iraq.
You're a coward, Marlowe. You're too much of a pussy to even put your own name against your words.
But why am I bothering? You're just a troll, masturbating over us.
Ugh.

Well, if you insist on seeing it that way...
perhaps you should ask yourself how and why you got into a position to be a recipient of this verbal bukakke.
[link|http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=ask-yourselves-why-they-hate-you&btnG=Search|Ask Yourselves Why]... such a versatile phrase, that.
