OH GAWD!! Now I'm going to have to mind-wipe myself to get rid of that image!!! AAAAAAHHHHHHH.......!!!!


I jsut love trash talk- don't you?



Great nominee for invasion, but in the spirit of this thread (you know, fair and balanced and all), I must insist that you complete the process. Who will be your balancing counterpart for righteous invasion? For example, one might suggest balancing the invasion of Karl Rove with that of Al Sharpton. Heaven only knows that Al would deserve it, but the choice must be yours. Who would you nominate? Inquiring minds await............

How can I comment on this without seeming, uhm, partisan?

Ah, but Rue, this is your chance to demonstrate your non-partisanship to the world. All you have to do is to be fair and balanced and nominate alternative pairs of folk who hate our culture and think we need to clean up our act, so that we could then invade them. For example, one might nominate Ann Coulter and Al Franken as an appropriately balanced pair. Or perhaps North Korea and France. But be creative, don't you know somebody who needs to be invaded? All you need is a bit of balance.

I think we should invade wales (they have dubious attitudes toward sheep afterall) and erm Africa cause they have oil and won't put up much of a fight so...
Erm I mean they have a terrible human rights record, obviously.

Just leave the monkeys out of it, its not their fault.

i'm not sure whether this an invasion of randomness or an invasion of monkeys - although you are doing the two together - maybe its balanced

smile pretty and watch your back

We need only invade one place to strike at duelism: California!! We take out that Neo-Terminator who's runnin' it and all the crunchy new-agey Neo-Entertainer types, like Keanu Reeves, he's pretty Neo as far as I can tell!!!
Death to Neo-cons, Neo-libs, and Neo-neos!!!!

Now wait just a gorram minute here Chrisisall, you're talkin' 'bout my home state. We not only got the Gropenfuehrer for a governator, we got San Francisco. And in addition to agribusiness bigger than all of Europe combined (literally true), we have LA.

Well damn, in the interest of "fair and balanced" I guess we do need to be invaded.

How unkind of you to point it out .

It's not that I have an issue with the idea itself, it's just that only one news source calls itself 'fair and balanced'. And then to equate the two: "fair and balanced' is like "two by two, hands of blue....", well, it causes me giggles.

Jutht being thilly. Pay no mind. Don't mean nuthin' by it.
