Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Wednesday, August 26, 2009

Pakistan's extremist Taliban movement acknowledged Tuesday that its leader, Baitullah Mehsud, had died in the aftermath of a U.S. drone missile attack early this month and confirmed that two men would replace him. One, Waliur Rehman, threatened attacks against the West and called President Barack Obama "our foremost enemy."

The Taliban look much like the Republicans: Racists that
will stop at nothing to criticise an African-American.

Be Well.

Partisan hacks twist this statement for their own benefit in 3...2...1....

Good job Obama, thanks for focusing on the real enemy!

Merge religion, guns and jungle law, you get the Taliban. Mean, sexists, illiterate pigs.

We are very lucky to have outgrown their vile ways.

guess we were all confused by bush giving them lots o money back in the day.

Let's see if we can take Riiight Logick and apply it to this story.

1. Taliban no like Obama.
2. GOPiggies no like Obama.
3. Taliban = GOPiggies = Al Qaeda

See? That wasn't hard werk at all.

LOL.

"See? That wasn't hard werk at all."

Dam, Boy! If yer majer was Logic or English, sumbody wasted a lot of tuition bucks. Wer you on a wrastlin' skolership or sumthin?

Settle down everyone.

This is coming from TTP (Pak taliban), from afghan-taliban.

The TTP only goes after targets in Pakistan.

They have NEVER gone after American targets inside Afghanistan.

The fellow is just farting hot air trying to get some street cred going.

This is coming from TTP (Pak taliban), from afghan-taliban.

This is coming from TTP (Pak taliban), NOT from afghan-taliban.

You are jokeing. Right?

I'm sure Rush will point out the irony here: Taliban hating a secret Muslim? Perhaps they just haven't gotten the GOP talking points on that one yet. If they would just listen to Beck, Hannity, Rush or O'Reilly, they'd know Obama is a secret Muslim hell bent on turning America into an Islamic nation and promoting terrorist organizations like the Taliban and al Qaeda... or maybe they also know the GOP is full of it.

red, wern't they the ones we armed to defeat the Ruskies? I do seem to remember something about som fighting over there. I guess it wasn't Bush. Way before his time.

The Taliban is just a bunch of birthers.

Bush Gives Taliban $10 Million To Fight Opium
Run Date: 05/26/01


(WOMENSENEWS)The Bush administration has given Afghanistan $43 million including $10 million for "other livelihood and food security programs," a reference to the ruling Taliban's ban on poppy cultivation that dramatically changed the economy of the war-torn nation. The poppy is the source of opium and the crop had provided significant revenues to Afghan farmers. The aid was described as humanitarian.

In addition to being an ally in the U.S. war against drugs, the Taliban also has banned the education of girls and women. It has banned women from professions and from most outside-the-home employment, even with international relief agencies. It has banned women from seeing male doctors and it prevents women from practicing medicine.

Colin Powell, in announcing the gift, said the administration hoped that the Taliban "will act on a number of fundamental issues that separate us: their support of terrorism, their violation of internationally recognized human rights--especially their treatment of women and girls--and their refusal to resolve Afghanistan's civil war through a negotiated settlement." He also called on other nation's to join the U.S. with "dispatch and energy."

it must suck to be so lacking in knowledge

See? That wasn't hard werk at all.

It's the community college way

Truth,

That's the problem. The right doesn't understand the connections. Just like they think Saddam was involved in 9/11, they don't get that Bush armed bin laden and had sleep overs with his family (in between his trysts with "the gannon of love').......

LM

i just started rereading 1984 and the similarity between forgetting stuff in reality and fiction is amazing.

"Government tuition +

From the guy who thinks lung surgery will cost "maybe" $70,000......

here is a hint, one lung replacement surgery will run you anywhere from $150,000 to $300,000 depending on the name on the surgeon doing the work.

Drunk Retard Adjunct Faculty
#21 | Posted by vernon

"Drunk Retard Adjunct Faculty," read the circular cardboard badge Vermin spent a good part of the evening constructing from the top of a carton of Ben & Jerry's "Buried Treasure Sorbet" another rip-off, he concluded, spitting a glob of rust-colored sputum mixed with the Ozark Crooks ceegar he'd smoked (a castoff from the bedraggled pedicab driver who brought his three-wheeled rickshaw-bicycle combo vehicle to a screeching halt around dawn, and just in time to avoid rolling over Vermin's bulbous mass that lay prone in the mud outside the closed Smokey Mountain landfill home to 2 million tons of Manila's rankest garbage which Vermin relied on for the occasional treasure and also for the flames that leaped into life when the heaving mass of Filippino refuse reached a temperature where nearly spontaneous combustion allowed him to light up a stogie if his attempt to cadge a match at the whatchamacallit brothel on Makati Burgos Street proved unsuccessful; but a pedicab peddle boy who'd nonetheless fallen prey, as an easy mark, when he bought the "autographed" Wacko Jacko photograph Vermin spent most of the evening peddling in Tondo); a sputum glob that evolved into a spray of globular goo that previously lodged somewhere in his respiratory tract until an odious belch created by the wedding of his midnight snack of steamed rice cakes, soy sauce, pork rinds, pig intestines, and squid balls met the washing down agent: half-a-gallon of 90-proof Lambanog coconut wine.

"Woof!" Vermin mumbled, staring down at his creation, which lay partially in the dirt road, where it caught the first rays of the sun in a crazy, kaleidoscopic, practically psychedelic whirl of colors, and partially lapped onto the yellow mesh slippers he'd brought with him from Taiwan as a present for someone (he couldn't remember who) but decided to keep for himself because he thought he deserved it and because they complemented his black-and-white checkered beanie (a la mode d'Pincus Leff), black-and-white checkered coat (a la mode d'Pincus Leff), Republican-dull tie (a la mode d'Rushbo), and the sumo wrestler's diaper he still wore from that recent episode about which he was not purposely vague but which he knew somehow involved his presence in a dumpster with broken wheels buried in a generation's worth of slippery muck in the alley off Tainan City's Gung Yuan Road (directly across from the A-Da basement disco club's fire exit).

Clearing his flukes, Vermin found himself still pissed about the Ben & Jerry's "Buried Treasure Sorbet" from which he'd retrieved the cardboard lid on which he used a broken by semi-serviceable crayon to scrawl "Drunk Retard Adjunct Faculty," not because it didn't taste good (it was actually quite nice and served as a tasty addition to the midnight snack of steamed rice cakes, soy sauce, pork rinds, pig intestines, and squid balls washed down with half-a-gallon of 90-proof Lambanog coconut wine); not because whoever tossed it into the bin hadn't left any (bastard could've left more, for sure, but a few fingerfulls was all he thought he could handle just then); but because those Levantine hippie m@th#rf~ck#r$ (as ol' Utastaff used to say during their nights out and about) Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield gypped him out of the treasure, the prize that he knew was supposed to be buried in the bottom of the ice cream carton gawd, he could go for a Crackerjack and Jack snack just now.

"Typical!" Vermin retched, fastening the "Drunk Retard Adjunct Faculty" onto the front of his sumo loincloth with a Band-Aid he'd been saving from the last time he raided the Amisolo Maternity Hospital's hazardous waste bin back of Tondo's Hermosa Street, and feeling not exactly tip-top but only slightly less than adequate -- sauntered out to see just what the midwifery course at Manila Central University (In Scientia Solidaritas) might have to offer.

Racist:
Check out the abortion rates for the African/American community; abortion, the sacred rite of liberalism.

I DO give Obama credit for success so far in THIS area, despite his pacifist, humanist, socialist supporters that are traditionally and currently anti-war who thought "dialogue" would work.

A former pacifist

There you Go!

Look Like the Right is "Emboldening" their Extremist Contemporaries.

Stay the Course!

You're kidding...right? I mean...you are making a joke...? I mean...really? Even you can't be THAT dumb... Illiteracy rates for whites were at about 11.5% in 1870. They dropped to about 0.4% by the 1980's and beyond. Of course, the rates for other races showed incredibly dramatic returns as well exceeding the improvement of the White rates. ...Are you really that stupid?

If only Obama wouldve stopped the attacks..How hard is it to figure out? sheesh! We're supposed to quit attacking them, wreck our own country, and eventually convert to Islam.. then.. maybe.. they'll quit trying to kill us

We're coming

As soon as Obama's fake birth certificate is mentioned, liberal Talibans will come after you like crazy.

Nanc has a point.

they think Saddam was involved in 9/11,

#22 | Posted by Liberal_Mongrel

You are so full of shit on that.

He had chemical weapons he used on the iranians and even his own people.

He violated the no fly zones set up by the UN.

He had terrorist training camps.

Even the most lib lib here in the US government thought he had nuclear weapons and most European countries thought that too.

I don't know anyone that thought Sadam was involved in 9/11/01 but I do know some libs that think the US government ias responsible for 9/11/01. Go figure.

"As soon as Obama's fake birth certificate is mentioned, liberal Talibans will come after you like crazy."

You think that's bad, wait until Jindi the Hindi's birth certificate from Hinduland comes out.

"...Are you really that stupid?"

Oh, yes.

He's really that stupid.

cbo, sometimes I think you are right and sometimes I think he actualy believes his stupid shit. It is hard to tell.

"We're coming"

Ooooooooooo.

So, when th' fuck are ya gonna get here?

Ha-ha-ha I wonder how much the White House paid Waliur Rehman to say that

I don't even think Bush got that much recognition from the Taliban, Taliban, Taliban Bannanas...

Lame yes, but it was short notice... Or, short bus notice... Or...

These Taliban folks sound like they would get along great with American rightwingers.

I do recall the repubs reasoning that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".

I still haven't seen a Rtard take Chimpy to task for the whopper he pulled out of his Gannon-gaped when he took credit for putting the Taliban out of business forever back in '03. I wonder why that is.

Terrorists need places to hide, to plot, and to train, so we're holding their allies, the allies of terror to account. (Applause.) Working with a fine coalition, our military went to Afghanistan, destroyed the training camps of al Qaeda, and put the Taliban out of business forever. (Applause.)

*Gannon-gaped ass*

Only because we had a shred of trust left for a con President. That trust was shown to be grossly misplaced. Bush lied--people died. Hundreds of thousands--needlessly.

Only because of mounting evidence. After 911, nobody thought the US government had anything to do with such a monstrous act. But the actions of Bush after 911 changed all that---from not wanting ANY investigation to the facts that smoky oxygen starved fires have zero chance of weakening steel--to the way the buildings fell--to the failure to release the pics of the 757 that hit the Pentagon and managed to go through a 16 foot hole. Where's the pics, and lots of people will STFU. That Obama hasn't addressed the issue shows his failure to be honest with the American people. Why would

Taliban Leader Calls Obama 'Our Foremost Enemy'

Well, I guess Obama better offer up a heartfelt apology for American hegemony.

Capn Kirk,

Uh, check out the abortion rates for catholics and protestants.....

abortion, the sacred right of christianity, eh?

Catholics are slightly more likely to get an abortion than Protestants, according to a 2000-2001 survey.

The survey, the latest conducted by the Alan Guttmacher Institute, was completed by more than 10,000 women. Staffers in hospitals, clinics and physicians' offices where abortions are performed distributed the questionnaire. The Guttmacher Institute, which researches sexual and reproductive health worldwide, says it used the survey data along with data on the number of abortions performed nationally to estimate abortion rates and the size of certain demographic groups.

The institute found that more Protestant women obtained abortions than Catholics: Forty-three percent of women over age 17 in the 2000-2001 survey said they were Protestant, while 27 percent said they were Catholic. But Catholics were more likely to get an abortion: The abortion rate for Catholic women was 22 per 1,000 women; the rate for Protestants was 18 per 1,000 women, according to study author Rachel K. Jones.

Why would he have to do that as long as folks like you keep trying to make America become MORE LIKE the terrorists> no rule of law, no constitutional protections, spying on Americans w/o probable cause, invading/occupying/killing foreign nations that didn't attack us, indefinite detention with torture interrogations, etc, etc....

Even the most lib lib here in the US government thought he had nuclear weapons and most European countries thought that too.

well lets see..first of all your hundreds of thousands died has never been proven to be more than exxageration

#27 | Posted by afkabl2

I see AFKbabble is still babbling on. So what you just said is that because Holder is going to investigate possible abuses of AMERICAN law by American citizens this will make a terrorist job a whole lot easier?

Do you not even see how stupid that makes you look? The whole point of terrorism is to scare us into creating draconian laws that would destroy us from the inside. Are you so stupid as to not see that? You do realize that no enemy could ever defeat us directly so they have created a strategy to pit us against ourselves.

And look how well it is working. They turned you and thousands (maybe millions) of GOPers into a blithering idiots!

Get a grip son and come back to reality! We need you brother!

who knew ordinary americans could have ANYTHING in common with the taliban?!?

So NANC are you officially declaring yourself an ENEMY NONCOMBATANT?

Just curious.

I am sure there are a few nice folks with drills who wish to speak with you about that. I can pass that info along thru "channels" if you like.

Somehow this was retorting the assertion that Saddam was NOT involved in 9/11 (which is... y'know, oh what's the word... correct?)

He had chemical weapons he used on the iranians and even his own people.

nobody denies this. the US sold him the recipes.

He violated the no fly zones set up by the UN.

amazing, considering iraq under saddam has no air force left. what our own invading forces found were 20 yr old airplanes in overgrown airfields, some were even cardboard facades meant to fool satellite photographers. the no-fly zone worked. it's clinton's win, with the assist from hw bush. at least give credit where it's due.

He had terrorist training camps.

military training camps, terrorist training camps... i guess it's all the same to you, right? i was in the boy scouts, and that's more of a terrorist training camp than anything saddam had.

Even the most lib lib here in the US government thought he had nuclear weapons and most European countries thought that too.

and that "most lib lib" would be...? oh, that was just something you pulled out of your ass. got it. here, let me pick that up for ya. dennis kucinich, arguably the person to whom you refer, has gone on record numerous times to state that no one in congress or the senate seriously thought saddam had nukes. even busha dministration officials say that no one believed he had or would ever kad nukes, but they they "just didn't know" of what, in this paranoiac post-9/11 world, what saddam, or anyone for that matter, was capable.

I don't know anyone that thought Sadam was involved in 9/11/01 but I do know some libs that think the US government ias responsible for 9/11/01. Go figure.

bullshit. you've corrected at least one person that said it. c'mon... it's ok. you can admit that it was your wife or whatever. it's fine by me. as for our gov't's responsibility or complicity in 9/11? there's no proof either way. all the people who might have known the truth either committed suicide (hijackers) or WERE suicided.
