Try this little story on the next Bush supporter you meet
You have been married for 30 years to a nice but plain wife. You have two average children, a decent home and an okay car.

Then you go on a business trip. While you're away, someone murders your wife and children, burns your house to the ground and steals your car. No one ever finds the guy.

Five years later, you're remarried to a really cute new wife who's a doctor, your three children are all honor students, and you have a McMansion and three Lexuses.

Should you be:

grateful to the criminal for making your situation better...

or...

still pissed at the guy for ruining your life in the first place?

If you chose the first, you're probably a Republican. You're definitely an idiot.

4. Just curious -- are those step children?
Because how, in 5 years, do you get 3 new kids who are all already honors students? Unless they go to an honors preschool or something.

6. It reads like a right wing nutjob SPAM.
It's better to just ask them why they aren't fighting in Iraq and accept NO EXCUSES! Then, hand them enlistments papers. :)

9. True
Nevertheless, I think it's better to just blast them with the truth of their cowardice.
