(We're living in the Occupied South. - promoted by mooncat)
Say, here's some news:
In an urgent email to its members defending John McCain's affection for really, really long wars, Red State lumped the following together: the present-day US military occupation of Japan, the present-day US military occupation of Germany, and (seriously, now) the present-day US military occupation of the American South.
You can't make this kind of thing up. It displays a historical grasp that's so bad it's self-parodying:
Notwithstanding that, the DNC is now out with an email blast begging for money, saying again that John McCain wants to fight another 100 years. No doubt the media will keep repeating it, never pointing out the gross distortion of what McCain said. It is important, however, that we all have the facts to point out the Democrats and media are working together to push this lie.
Of course, it could just be that the Democrats are clueless about the military. Someone should ask the Democrats if they think we're still at war with the confederacy, the Germans, and the Japanese given all the standing American armies in the South, Germany, and Japan.
(Emphasis in the original.)
These people must have struggled terribly with the "one of these things is not like the others" game on "Sesame Street."
