Generic Iraq Story (Diaries)

llimllib's Diary

Today, <news outlet> released a story about the <lawmaking body> of <country>. Due to the shocking contents of the story, I feel it is necessary to analyze what <news outlet> said in more detail.

While we all know that the Iraq crisis should <have started earlier|never happen>, new light has been shed on it by <news outlet>'s speech the other day. In the story, it is revealed that <world leader> lied blatantly about critical information.


In the story, <news outlet> revealed that <world leader> has had <an affair|ties to oil money|ties to the US government> for some time now. Based on this information, I think it is critical that we all reevaluate what we think about the situation in Iraq. How is it possible that we can <not|> attack Iraq immediately given this information?

Unfortunately, <famous k5 name> would have you ignore this information. Hell, if you told people about it, <famous k5 troll> would probably have a field day with you. Nevertheless, I urge you all to consider this information when you talk about how the world should respond to Iraq.

every -1 should be followed with an explanation of "you take it up the ass, sodomite".

Really, all the really anal retentive folks would shit themselves as they quickly come up with some kind of condemning reply to something which you can't really reply to.

Makes me wish one could rate diaries. I do have some additions, though:

I've discovered <fact about prior invovlement of U.S. with Iraq> that you <cartoon of a political affiliation> don't know because you're all too busy <childish image of sheeplike behavior> to notice. If you don't agree with me, you're <mindlessly polarized antagonistic bugbear>
