Default Where is everyone?????

In article ,
says...
Where did all the posts go??? A week ago we had all the usual suspects
ranting on about how base and despicable the President, the government, the
Nation, and most of the people are because seven American soldiers depanted
some Iraqis and photographed them.

Now we've got naught but a few desultory comments about the hacking off of
Nick Berg's head on camera. For those who needed the reminder, the masked
marvels on tape have shown our country exactly the type of people we are
fighting. [I can't think of any group in history who felt the need to hide
their faces and still enjoyed any ethical regard from civilized nations.]
Where's the fury? All the anti-Bush folk were choking on righteous
indignation at the humiliation of a few terrorists, but sound not a burp at
the animalistic slaughter of an unconnected civilian US citizen. Then Harry
comes up with that sophomoric drivel that it really isn't that bad because
you still wind up dead. What the hell is wrong with you people? Like the
medieval barbarians on the videotape, you have now shown your true colors
for all to see. Worthless garbage, every one.


Frankly John, the whole situation makes me so sick to my stomach that
I'm beyond comment. Did you see that poor father break down on his
front lawn having found out how his precious son had died?

Can you imagine how devastating that is to a parent, sibling,
grandparent, friend? It's devastating to me to imagine how far one has
to travel to be able to do that to another human being.

Is it any less tragic to lose your life to a 500 lb cluster bomb? Do
you like the packaging a little better? Don't have to touch it? I'm in
favor of people understanding the consequences of their actions. It's a
hell of lot easier to drop a bomb than cut someone's head off. Perhaps
you should think about those barbarians in the same light as hunters who
don't mind taking a life with their own hands. No intermediary to do
the hellish task for you.

To make political fodder of such a tragic event is calloused, but you
feel free to follow your nature.

Worthless garbage indeed, but please have a look in the mirror first.
