It feels so good to have backed a winner loser winner loser uber-idiotarian.

And I don't want to hear one word about umlauts. :-)

5 Dean Douthat  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:50:39am

And such an appropriate photo as she leads small children by example in the never-ending quest for peace and non-violence.

6 rockman  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:51:27am

Another proud moment for the
silly folks at ISM. IHOP should run a breakfast special in her honor.

7 CCR  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:51:30am

I would like to reawaken the motion that this be made a quarterly thing.

I also motion that Wesley Clark be named Saint Waffle.

I respectfully suggest to write ue when you don't want problems with umlauts. Ueber is perfectly correct.
This, just because you don't want to hear about it...

13 Dean Douthat  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:53:57am

I'd like to second the motion for a quarterly or even monthly "winner". Then the four (or 12) of them face off in the finals for the annual award.

14 lawhawk  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:54:17am

On behalf of the members of the Academy, I would like to accept this prize on behalf of buldozer sitters and protestors of all things good and decent in the world.

Israel is the only good and decent thing in the Middle East (at least before the US's imperialistic blood for oil enterprise in Iraq) and it must be destroyed. At a minimum it must be shamed and debased at every opportunity.

I am therefore glad that I had the opportunity to shame Israel for its actions. I consider it a badge of honor to be associated with baby killers, bloodthirsty hoodlums, smugglers, and militants with whom I share a kinship.

It was heartwarming to see my parents meet with Chairman Arafat, with whom I feel a connection as well. His despondent condition is the fault of no one except the Zionists.

On that note, I must continue to defile the occupied land of Palestine with my eternal presence in a slightly elongated and thinner version of my usual pose.

Yeah! It was a long, hard campaign, but we did it folks! We managed to elect Corrie as idiotarian of 2003! I can't think of a more deserving "winner".

16 rockman  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:55:26am

Actually, IHOP does honor both the winner and the runner up Michael Moore with a breakfast special - I think it's called Pigs in a Blanket.

21 SoCalJustice  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:59:22am

Judging from the skillfully crafted "flag" she's desecrating, she surely isn't going to win artist of the year. This will have to do.

22 Frank J.  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:59:29am

I think Catepillar should accept the award on her behalf, as their products made her Sainthood possible. Also, they should name their new line of heavy duty bulldozers "Corrie Crushers" in honor of St. Pancake.

23 Dirk Diggler  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:59:34am

Geez people, it's time to get over Rachel. There were far more deserving living testaments to idiocy that deserved our recognition.

I can't wait to hear the wailing and gnashing of teeth as this gets picked up by DU (can't spell "dumb" without D-U) and the indyots (assuming any of them are still in communication with each other, given the current meltdown.) It may even get picked up by the mainstream press.

And I'll laugh myself silly over their outrage. Stupid, arrogant b**ch.

31 St. Rachel of Bisquik  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:04:02am

Oh dear... Thank you...thank you all...

First off, I would like to thank my parents who had instilled in me their lliberal values of moral equivalency and false sense of right or wrong.

Second, to the schools that educated me. If it wasn't for them, I wouldn't have this hatred toward free countries that made it possible to see the palestinians as the victims.

I would also like to the thank the International Solidarity Movement for taking me in and teaching me to lie and manipulate the media for our own causes.

And last but not least, I would like to thank Mr. Yasser Arafat and the PLO. For without them and their continued backing of terrorism, the palestinians may have been free with their own country by now. Then what would me, a little affluent white girl, have to do with her time.

Allahu Akhbar !!!

When they sent Rachel back to get buried in the States, did they send her in a coffin or just fold her over and put her in a Manila envelope.

I happen to think that thread was one of the LGF greats. Certainly it doesn't come close to the (in)Famous Kosher Wars of 2002, but I think it's still a keeper...

36 Ed Moran abu beanball  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:07:59am

As seen in this story (you have to page down), the bulldozer didn't hurt her looks any.


Of course, Charles picture shows us her inner ugliness as well.

38 John B  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:10:48am

A worthy winner even though I voted for Michael Moore.

This may be a first: Idiotarian of the Year and a possible Darwin Award. Rachel just may be headed for the Hall of Fame of something or other.

39 Ed Moran abu beanball  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:11:15am

BTW, in the little photo essay at the bottom of the Electronic Intifada Article I linked to, they have a photo montage of Rachel on the grill, and somehow the bulldozer magically changes models during the act.


I assume some astute LGF reader has noticed this before. This is too obvious. (Look at the configuration of the lights on the dozer).

Indeed, I would like to add my voice to the movement for quarterly elections, with a yearly four way election. Channeling the Nine Dwarves was fun, but ultimately as usefull as voting Libertarian.

42 Judith-heavy snowfall warning  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:14:51am

I'm very pleased Rachel Corrie won the award. I have some misginvings about it when I read the people who were offended by LGF doing this but I'm still glad she won. She carried LLLism to such an extremity she deserves the award simply because someone else might stop and think again.

Also Moore can always try again next year.

I missed the whole posting leading up to the big won :(

That was one great thread! Ladybug really had me going.

Finally I have an easy on-line self administered test for Asperger's if anyone is interested. According to the test I have it. Strange. I have no obsession with the weather.

Weather is not good in Canada today. Check out how much of the country is under red warning.

Here's the script for Winnipeg-Heavy snowfall warning for
city of Winnipeg issued
10 to 15 centimetres of snow later this afternoon and overnight for
parts of southern Manitoba.


A weather system moving through Saskatchewan will spread snow into southern Manitoba this afternoon. The snow will Continue through the night and taper off early Wednesday morning.

The snowfall will be widespread across southern Manitoba with the heaviest snow, about 10 to 15 centimetres, expected to fall along a line from Swan River to Portage la Prairie to Sprague including the Red River Valley and the city of Winnipeg. Other areas of southern Manitoba will see 5 to 10 cm of snow from this system.

The warning will be updated as the system moves into Manitoba.

Please listen for updated forecasts and warnings throughout the Day...Especially if you are planning to travel.

43 Grandma  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:15:01am

#23, Dirk Diggler,

Don't be too disappointed about Rachel's win. Her Swan Song turned out to be a flat note, and she'll never have the opportunity again to top her last performance. The living nominees, however, have a lot of time to re-qualify for the next round of voting.

For the record, I object to quarterly elections (cheapens the Fiskie, IMO ... I don't even like having the olympics every 2 years) but I would like to once again voice my preference for categories

49 Kustie the Klown  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:22:11am

Someone has GOT to send her parents a velvet Elvis and/or a Dog's Playing Poker painting in Rachel's honor.

This feels great! I love siding with a winner. I backed Rachel all the way.

. . . sort of like how the bulldozer backed over Rachel all the way.

51 Athos  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:23:39am

It looks like the year of the double win for St. Pancake - the Fiskie, and she is also probably going to win a Darwin.

National Review has an interesting article on who I think should have won the 03 Fiskie - Time for Kofi to Go

Yet if there is one person on the international stage who deserves to be called to account for his conduct over Iraq, it is Kofi Annan. Missing from the debate on how and where Saddam should be tried has been any discussion about those whose actions sustained the Iraqi dictator in power. It is not just that Annan famously called Saddam Hussein in February 1998 somebody "I can do business with." It is that the U.N. secretary general has persistently put the interests of Saddam's victims last, while making the concerns of the Baathist regime, the Arab states, and Iraq's meddlesome neighbors his top priority. Not only has the secretary general shown little interest in Iraqi human rights, he has made a habit of lobbying against the U.S., both before and after the war. Annan has substituted bad faith for this previous record of being complicit in perpetuating Saddam's dictatorship.

Well, unfortunately, it appears that Kofi will be a leading favorite to challenge Soros for the 04 Fiskie. Although with the election campaign just heating up - there are plenty of opportunities for more idiots to make their case for the award.

Very. I expect to see a similar effort by some, however, to turn the term on Israel.

55 Pro-Bush Canuck  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:28:11am

I was rooting for Michael Moore. My all-time favorite comment on Moore comes from the redoubtable James Lileks:

If you ask me, Michael Moore is a gasbag who, if stuck with a pin, would fly around the room until he ended up on the floor as three pounds of wrinkled hot-dog skin and a sweat-stained ballcap. And if he is a balloon, that would mean that his penis is twisted in a tight little knot.

Which would certainly explain a lot.

56 Flanstein  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:29:28am

SOUNDS like a lot of people here have taken joy in the way a fellow human being died. No one hates islam more than I do. No one despises terrorist enabling Jew-hating fucks more than I do. However, this forums overwhelming shadenfreude at the death of this woman makes me puke.

I think we all believe ourselves to be morally superior to the far-left creeps who revel in every American death in Iraq or setback against terrorism. I think we all believe ourselves to be better people than islamists who dance with joy at the sight of western entrails.

This is NOT the way civilized human beings distinguish themselves from islamists and their supporters. This is a dark day for LGF - the day we acted just like the people we pillory...

57 BH  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:29:32am

58 TargetPractice, Much Abu About Nothing  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:29:48am

God, I can never look at that picture without cringing. {shudders}

Anywho, congrats to St. Pancake, who I backed the whole way. I knew "The Flat One" deserved it, as she would never get another chance to take a run for it. While the entire field was a true showing of asswits, they continue to live on and will provide plenty of opportunities for next year. But, I still do not support giving such an award to Mikey Moore, as doing so would only fuel his ego, not bruise it.

I don't think the Darwin Awards people want to give Skank Corrie of the Dozers their award, though she certainly deserves it. Sometimes, they take themselves way too seriously. When JFK Jr. died in that plane crash a few years ago, they had a huge debate about giving him one, before deciding not to honor him.

Would it be too mean to send a certificate to:

Rachel Corrie and Family
PO Box 12149
Olympia, WA 98508

Just wondering. After all, I'm sure her parents played a major role in teaching her all about moral equivalence and how everything can be blamed on the JOOOS.

67 Flaming Sword  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 7:42:29am

#56 Flanstein:

No, you're wrong--this is a great day for those who value the truth.

Too much of what passes for "reasonable" political discussion these days amounts to nothing other than compromise. Compromise works well if we are "merely" debating whether to cut taxes by 4% versus an alternative proposal of 6%--we meet in the middle, cut them by 5% and everyone goes home happy and proclaiming victory.

But some things in life are not about "mere" matters of economic policy--some are matters of right and wrong, of life and death. There is no logical ground for "compromise" on such matters. St. Pancake despised her country, despised Israel, and was complicit in the smuggling of weapons designed for one thing only--to kill Jews. Thus, there is no room for "compromise"--she aided and abetted evil. She is villified here because of her own despicable actions--we are allowed to call evil "evil", without any of the politically correct crap about how "sincere" she may have been. To paint the story any other way implies that one may commit horrible attrocities with impunity so long as their intent is "sincere".

If new visitors to this site are "shocked", it is only because they have been fed lies of commission and omission for the previous years they have inhabited the planet. The "shock" is a good thing--the truth sometimes has that effect upon people. Those that are sincere in wanting to understand their world will either do enough research to refute what they read here or will find through their research that the appeal of this place is that here we address topics without having to dillute truth with the poison of false "compromise".

It appears you need a little lesson in reality.

1. People die every day, some good people, some evil people and some in-between.

2. Some people die heroically, such as our troops overseas and the NYC firefighters on 9/11.

3. Some die tragically, such as young children with life-ending illnesses, Ernie Davis and Brian Piccolo.

4. Some die accidently, through no fault of their own, such as people minding their own business who are killed by a drunk driver.

5. Some die stupidly, wasting their lives in the most pointless of ways. Instead of doing something constructive to fulfill their idealism, they throw their lives away foolishly. Such a person was Rachel Corrie. For such a person, who wastes their life this way, the reaction here is not schadenfreude. It is scorn and derision.

#56 Flanstein:

Fellow Human Being ... bleh!!

Uday and Qusay were also "fellow human beings." Glad their dead. Osama is (or was) purportedly human. Hope his carcass turns up soon. Arafat claims to be human. Even if he is, I'll open up a bottle of something special when he drops dead (preferably soon and painfully).

St. Rachel was a BAD human being doing a BAD thing when she died due to her own stupidity and arrogance. Then she was canonized by her fellow travellers (idiotarians all) and the murderers that she supported. She was a tool that, upon her death, became a propoganda tool. Her poor, suffering parents, who failed her so completely in life, have been travelling the world and receiving accolades because she died, in large part, due to their failure.

If she could give an acceptance speech, she would say that she accepts this award not just for herself but for every flag-burning, hate mongering, terrorist supporting, murder excusin, intellectually vapid, morally dead idiotarian (including her parents) who supported her efforts in life, helped her accomplish her death, and have been profitting from it ever since.

Lord knows they all deserve recognition.

You are wrong, flat wrong.

The derision here was not for the loss of life, but to deflate the base, false, and vicious "cause" for which she sacrificed it. That kind of "cause" needs to be deflated by laughter and scorn, then perhaps others will not take it seriously and suffer her fate.

(And about the "flat wrong:"--sorry, missed sensitivity training again this week.)

Sadly, Saint Rachel has plateaued. The Darwin 2003 awards do not recognize her earth shattering achievement. The committee did recognize one "pancake" variant, so they are at least aware of the impact in her actions. [Link: www.darwinawards.com...]

On behalf of all of the Robert Fissk Idiotarian Award losers this sore loser would like to say "WHAT THE �*@$* HELL!!!" You chose a PATHETIC Nobody from an organization of nobodies and turn her into a Somebody when you could of taken a Somebody (George Soros, Chris Patten, Muthahir) and shown that they deserve to be a loser Nobody. I guess we can chalk this up as a shake down run. Next time, I want to see more thoughtful entries and it will count towards your final grade. Class, and I use that term hesistantly here, dismissed!

99 Renna  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 8:15:30am

I know there are so many worthy candidates for the FIskie every year, but I disagree that the solution is a monthly or quarterly award. I think the solution is catagories. Divide them by age or occupation: youngsters/students, journalists, politicians, movie/rock stars, etc.
Or divide them by action: most idiotarian move that put the idiotarian in harm's way, worst anti-West/Capitalism/USA/Israel statement, most outlandish moral equivalency/apologetic rational to explain away an evil by terrorism, worst case of ironic idiocy or double standard (like using a free speech platform to complain there is no free speech or saying in one breath that the other side is censoring you and you don't think they ought to be allowed to do that), etc.

100 Austin From Boston  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 8:15:31am

To those all concerned about Fiskie's and the format..

I suggest , merely suggest ..in enough hot water after late night drinking and posting...

To solve the two main complaints with the Fiskie's;

The double counting between groups and member of said groups or organizations...and plurality instead of majority winners..

Starting first week in Dec every year have two pirmary run off's.

The first is a runoff for organizations/countries...or other appropriate candidates...while simultaneously conduct a primary for individuals..

Then After the new year have the final election..

Just a suggestion

Why, if we had enough product, we could sell on the Home Shopping Channel. Think of the possibilities - "The Corrie Pancake: cleans your floor and the human gene pool, all at once!

- Send a copy of the comic to a handful of the tools in the ISM (including Shapiro), along with a letter that, in essense, tells them to get real jobs and stop polluting the gene pool

- Send one copy of the comic to Colin Bowel and Foggy Bottom boys, along with a letter telling them that we're fed up of said tools sneaking into Israel and assisting the Jordyptian suicide squads

And finally

I can only give two cheers for this award; she's dead and will never learn in this life how wrong she is. Yes she died by her own idiocy that richly merits her consideration for the award, but there are values like rachmones and the golden rule that are not honored by her selection.

How is this mo' better Zionism? How does this strengthen the yishuv?

Another "winner".

MoveOn Political Group Picks Winning Ad

An advertisement showing images of children toiling on a grocery line and in a tire factory coupled with a simple line of text — "Guess who's going to pay off President Bush's $1 trillion deficit?" — was chosen by a liberal advocacy group that invited people to enter a contest to create their own anti-Bush commercials.
The ad was chosen as the winner of the "Bush in 30 Seconds" television ad campaign sponsored by the online political organization MoveOn.com, which announced the winning ad Monday.

Etc. These people are ridiculous.

Fisher's ad and some of the runners-up will air on CNN from Saturday through next week, when Bush delivers his State of the Union address, Pariser said.

CNN ... America's BBC.

128 Raistlan  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 8:45:06am

I humbly suggest a bracket system for the next IotY vote [think March Madness]. Each contest is only two contestants, and you just have to pick the one more deserving of the award; then the winner goes on to the next level.

This takes care of the Person/Their Organization dichotomy, since only the stronger of the two [if either] will be sent up to higher contests.

It also makes it easier for people to decide between so many varying degrees and modes of Idiotarianism.

Just a humble suggestion.

Today's the D.C. democratic ("first in the nation!!!") non-binding primary.

Very few people are campaigning, since it's a meaningless "beauty contest" - if you can call it that. Most of the major candidates aren't even on the ballot, at the request of the DNC. Kerry, Edwards, Clark and Lieberman all passed.

Dean, Sharpton, Moseley-Braun and Kucinich are the only "major" candidates on the ballot. The rest are fring-y no names, except for one, who's just fring-y: Lyndon LaRouche.

And his campaign truck, a flat bed 10-wheeler, filled with little, nazi, community college students, just drove down K Street outside my office. They were blaring "Handel's Messiah" (of all things) on their PA system and shouting anti-Israel slogans. Well, I couldn't actually hear what they were droning on about, but no doubt it was "neo-cons." There was a "Dump Dick Cheney" banner on the entire side of the truck.

So console yourself. Whenever we Canadians are being snowed under, it's Uncle Sam's hot air that's doing it. Personally I like the cold because when its really cold, it is too cold to snow properly.

This thread is an enlightening study of the pathology of mob mentality. The gleeful celebration of another's death is the lowest depth of depravity. Go ahead and tell yourselves you are happy Rachel Corrie died because her death somehow ensures an increased measure of security for people living in the Middle East.

But that warm notion misses the mark doesn't it? You delight in her death because of what she represented. You delight in her death because you have reduced her to a caricature of that which you hate and fear. She may have been completely wrong and utterly foolish. But her death has caused sorrow among those she was close to. Would you laugh in their faces? Given the opportunity would you spit on her parents, mock her siblings? Because this exactly what you are doing. In your zeal to be "right" and to prove that those with whom you disagree are wrong you have lost an important part of yourselves.

I have no problem with her winning this award posthumously. She was part of the terrorist infrastructure. She died in an accident. I'd have been fine if the IDF simply shot her dead. It's us or them, and if we aren't near to perfect in fighting the war on Islamic terror, eventually most Americans will eventually come to that same conclusion.

I would have had no problem with the IDF shooting her dead, either. I don't understand why Israel was so quick to apolgize. She was warned and still tried to protect and assist mass murderers, perhaps deep down counting on Israel to fight her with one hand tied behind its back just as Israel fights the Palestinians with one hand tied behind its back.

We will never know for sure, but it's possible that Rachel Corrie might have regretted her support for mass murderers later in life. I know I have discarded views I believed in passionately when I was her age...

I think it was a mistake to choose her as Idiotarian of 2003. She has already paid the ultimate price. She is no longer here to be confronted with her support for terrorism. She was not a founder or leader of Hamas, she was a dumb little girl who fell for the Big Lie that the Palestinians are an oppressed people yearning for justice. My bet is that Rachel Corrie's knowledge of the '67 war was limited to Arab propaganda.

However, by choosing Rachel Corrie LGF'ers open themselves to charge that their beliefs are no better than those of the Koran-reciting death cultists.

The focus should be on opposing and exposing those who continue supporting the Arabs' racist war to destroy Israel and massacre Israeli families.

It's one thing to believe Rachel Corrie acted foolishly and got what she deserved. It's another to gloat about it

I agree. I struggled with whether to vote for Corrie (my first choice was Yossi Beilin). My main concern was that we were giving unnecessary fodder to LGF-haters that could be used to convince others that LGF was a hate site (It's not!).

But I think the true intent behind the award is not shadenfreude but what "observer" described so aptly:

The derision here was not for the loss of life, but to deflate the base, false, and vicious "cause" for which she sacrificed it. That kind of "cause" needs to be deflated by laughter and scorn, then perhaps others will not take it seriously and suffer her fate.

I wager that if idiotarians like Corrie weren't lauded as "peace activists" and used as marketing tools by terrorists and their supporters, then her death would have been treated more respectfully here at LGF. But given the cult of martyrdom that surround her and her ilk, we have no choice but to pull her off her pedestal. And if that means we sometimes look like assholes, so be it.

I only draw the line at including her parents (#29, 31, 62). I don't doubt that they "played a major role in teaching her all about moral equivalence, etc." but I still think it's cruel and unnecessary. When they visit with Arafat and engage in other explicit acts of idiotarianism, we should absolutely not give them a free pass. But otherwise, I think we should just leave them out of it.

But her death has caused sorrow among those she was close to. Would you laugh in their faces? Given the opportunity would you spit on her parents, mock her siblings?

I think it's unfortunate that Rachel, being a human being, and I think life is sacred, died. It would have been much better if she just came to her sences.
But am I worried about offending her parents? Her parents that went to Arafat who is responsible for so many deaths and for so much sufferring for so many people. The minute they used her death to further the cause of terrorism, I decided Rachel Corrie was fair play.
A little bit of schadenfreude anyone?

175 Judith-heavy snowfall warning  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 9:30:32am
This thread is an enlightening study of the pathology of mob mentality. The gleeful celebration of another's death is the lowest depth of depravity. Go ahead and tell yourselves you are happy Rachel Corrie died because her death somehow ensures an increased measure of security for people living in the Middle East.

I don't think I recall anyone saying her death provided increased security for people in the Middle East except possibly by removing one more teacher of hate to children or one more terrorist's helper. However deporting her would have done it too so I don't think anyone has said her death did that.

But that warm notion misses the mark doesn't it? You delight in her death because of what she represented.

Yes.

You delight in her death because you have reduced her to a caricature of that which you hate and fear.

Yes. A caricature of terrorism and hate.

She may have been completely wrong and utterly foolish.

May? How about WAS.

But her death has caused sorrow among those she was close to.

Yes, but they helped her to her death. Why bought the plane ticket? Who went to Arafat the great murderer to accept his pretty painting in her memory? Who has been all over the Press using her death to further their personal anti-Israel agenda

Would you laugh in their faces? Given the opportunity would you spit on her parents, mock her siblings?

Probably, given the chance, if they were first waxing eloquently in my presence about her saintlike love for the poor oppressed Palestinians or her noble death or the brutality of the IDF in my presence, or how evil Zionism is, or how the poor Israelis killed in suicide bombings got what they deserved because they were part of the Jewish state. I likely would spit on them for that.

Because this exactly what you are doing.

No it isn't. They are free to not read this website anytime they want.

In your zeal to be "right" and to prove that those with whom you disagree are wrong you have lost an important part of yourselves.

Really? I disagree. I think I have found it. I educated my children about moral right and wrong. I taught them murder is wrong and terrorism is wrong and blowing up little children in a pizza parlor makes you a murderer not a martyr and nothing is ever resolved by violence, but you have to be able defend yourself against those who would murder you and you have the right to do so.

Rachel Corrie's parents didn't teach their daughter that part of reality. I'll bet they were super nicey nicey types who always reasoned with her and they always resolved every dispute by being nice and talking things out and telling her violence is always wrong and anyone who uses violence is always wrong and if people seem nice then they likely are nice. I'll bet they had a big family bed and hugged her when she had a temper tantrum and never made any real demands that she behave, as long as she was nice. I'll be their greatest ambition for her was not that she be morally upright and a contributor to society but that she "be happy" so they cheerfully escorted her to the airport with a kiss and a "be happy dear, we support you no matter what you choose to do with your life".

Didn't teach my kids that way. And they laughed at Rachel Corrie too, in disgust and disdain for the death of a caricature of violence and stupidity and moral equivalence. In fact two of them voted for her in this election. And I happen to think the world is a better place for it.

You say the purpose of giving Rachel Corrie the award is to expose phony "peace activists." Then why not give the award to the ISM? We could have held those fools accountable for supporting massacres of Israeli families *and* duping naive little girls into becoming human shields and martyrs.

Amazingly, you draw the line at her parents--as if calling them on their own stupidity is cruel but gloating over their daughter's death isn't.

It's not too late to name her parents as "winners" of this award. They should not be allowed to believe that by protecting mass murderers their daughter served a noble cause. We should do everything we can to shame them into renouncing Islamist terrorists.

There is nothing to be gained by celebrating Rachel Corrie's death. She can't be shamed or dissuaded. Nor can she be punished any more than she already has been.

The gleeful celebration of another's death is the lowest depth of depravity.

Agreed.

Go ahead and tell yourselves you are happy Rachel Corrie died because her death somehow ensures an increased measure of security for people living in the Middle East.

Correction, we laugh at her death because of the fact that she willingly put herself in front of a mechanical device far larger than herself and was crushed due to said stupidity. This, compounded with the fact that she did so in the belief that she was fulfilling some misguided cause makes it even stupider, and therefore much more amusing.

You delight in her death because of what she represented.

Just as I will delight in the death of Yasser Arafat, Saddam Hussein, Fidel Castro, etc. I find the delight because they all have one thing in common: they either supported or directly caused the death and suffering of thousands. Rachel was a low-rung in the ladder, but she played a part nontheless.

But her death has caused sorrow among those she was close to.

Tell that to all the Israelis who have lost family to the jihadi scum that she and her group supported by protecting their members and their smuggling tunnels.

Would you laugh in their faces? Given the opportunity would you spit on her parents, mock her siblings?

Course not. I'd tell them the truth: she got what she deserved for being a complete and utter idiot.

Because this exactly what you are doing. In your zeal to be "right" and to prove that those with whom you disagree are wrong you have lost an important part of yourselves.

I should feel bad because an idiot died for a cause that I neither support nor believe is anything but evil? Right, I'll remember that next time a jihadi takes several innocents with him in his "holy war."

187 V the K  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 9:43:01am

You delight in her death because of what she represented. You delight in her death because you have reduced her to a caricature of that which you hate and fear.

I could have forgiven Rachel for being a spoiled, narcissistic, self-righteous twit. If she had died in a car accident on her way to a "Vegan Lesbians for Dean" rally, no one here would mock her.

But what she did do (for the ten-thousandth time) was:

1. Travel to a foreign country and encourage children to hate America. (Evil).

2. Provide support and comfort to a culture that oppresses women, brutalizes homosexuals, and murders children. (Evil. Evil. Evil.)

3. Attempt to interfere with a legitimate, legally-sanctioned security operation intended to prevent acts of terrorism. (Evil)

4. Put herself between in the path of a working bulldozer, perhaps thinking her self-righteousness was mightier than tons of metal. She was wrong. (Stupid).

So, as I see it, Rachel Corrie was five parts evil to one part stupid. People who die trying to good are heroes. People who die doing nothing special deserve to be mourned. People who die doing stupid, you can feel sorry for. But why should I mourn someone who dies doing evil? It's no different than someone taking a box of kittens to an incinerator being hit by a garbage truck. Except maybe it's funnier than that ...

OT: Just got this in my email box:

Fwd: OPEN LETTER FROM ARAB-AMERICAN & MUSLIM COMMUNITY TO U.S. ANTI-WAR MOVEMENT

Excerpts:

Today, forty-one Arab American and Muslim organizations issued an open letter that both supports
the March 20 Call to Action and challenges the anti-war movement in the U.S. to take a principled
stand in defense of self-determination and in opposition to all U.S. plans for colonial occupation.
This important letter can be read in full below.

Accordingly, we the undersigned hereby declare that:

1. We do not accept delinking the struggle of the Palestinian people from the anti-war movement, and regard the struggle in Palestine, as it is viewed worldwide, to be central to any peace and justice mobilization.

2. We insist that the Palestinian right to return and to self-determination are the key anchors of thePalestinian struggle, and that organizations that attempt to diminish, sidetrack, or abrogate these rights, regardless of any other position they may take on Palestine, are acting contrary to the will and aspiration of the Palestinian people.

3. We view all attempts to relegate our collective presence to the margin and to tokenize our
participation in the movement to be racist in character. In its attempt to silence the Arab and
Muslim voices for decades, particularly that of the Palestinian people, the movement in the US has stood alone in the global movement for justice. We see ourselves as full partners in leading the movement as signified in the heavy price we continue to pay along the way, and reject any attempt to objectify our presence.

4. We regard the positions that the "colonial occupation of Iraq must be internationalized", or that
ending the occupation must be conducted over a period of time until the "Iraqis are able to secure their democracy", as implicitly colonial and racist. These are positions that are rooted in the construct of "manifest destiny" and the "white man's burden" to "civilize".

5. We call on our people everywhere to hold all organizations accountable to the positions they take, especially those that depict racist attitudes towards us, implicitly or otherwise, particularly those that tokenize and objectify our struggle. Any organization or movement that finds it acceptable to minimize or disregard for political expediency the struggle of any people should not be allowed to function within the global justice movement. Justice is neither selective, nor partial or conditional.

George Soros is an uber-idiotarian and he was my personal choice for IOY 2003. Little Rachel Corrie and her childish antics had little real impact on the world. George Soros, on the other hand, spent 2003 lavishly channeling money into a variety of radical left-wing causes not only in the United States but throughout the world. More seriously, Soros was actively seeking to scuttle what he calls 'American supremacist ideology' of the Bush administration. Millions have been spent on issue advertising for the 2004 presidential elections in the hopes of formenting 'regime change' in the United States. George Soros is the epitomy of the affluent, pompous, self-loathing European. I demand a recall!

By what right do you barge into this forum, peddling your wing-nut ideas about terrorist-sympathizers and their co-conspirators?

231 Edward Arlington Robinson  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 10:18:37am

Whenever Rachel Corrie burned a flag,
We children on the pavement looked at her.
She was hostile from sole to crown.
Grim-visaged, and red from anger.

And she was always loudly annoyed,
And she was always inhumane when she talked;
But still she didn't surprise us when she said,
"Kill the Jews," and she grumbled when she walked.

And she was loud--yes, louder than a foghorn--
And ISM-schooled in every disgrace.
Not fine, but utterly clueless,
Empty-headed, lost in space.

So on we seethed, and waited for the fight,
And went without kebabs, and roiled with hate,
And Rachel Corrie, one frenzied summer morn,
Was squashed like a big pancake.

There are things about Rachel I can relate to.

I also went to a very leftist university (UCSC - 1886),
I also once read a book by Noam Chomsky and thought I knew everything.
I also was once an idiotarian (it was a very short period in my life, really. And I thank my zionist brother in law, and the fact that I stopped eating hallucinagetic mushrooms, for getting me out of it.)
But I never stood in front of a tractor trying to protect terrorism.

#207 Evolutions Eve (interesting name...friend of Rachel's?)

This is a truly heartbreaking affair. The gall of the people here to vote for someone who has passed on in a joke contest. Was she a, as you so pathetically call it, an idiotarian for fighting for what she believes in her heart to be true and just. It is a sad day when someone with the conviction to stand up for what they believe in is mocked by others. My stomach turns with bile at the disgusting way that you have treated this poor girl. For shame, for shame.

You obviously missed the threads responses to #56 Flanstein and #158 Caribou. Fact is, Rachel Corrie, like the other misguided children that are cynically lured to ISM get so caught up in Palestinian propaganda that they lose all moral bearings. To wit, as has been stated on this forum too many times, Rachel Corrie (1) incited hatred toward America, toward Israel and Jews, (2) aided and abetted homicide bombers who think nothing of entering a bus and murdering innocent civilians, and (3) used horrible personal judgment in her views on the Middle East that led her to act at great personal peril in March 2003.

Oh, there is so much more that can be said, but Rachel Corrie is hardly the model of conviction that should be admired, she was at a minimum a misguided child and at worst a hypocrit who couched her hypocrisy in the pathology of Palestinian victimhood perpetrated by the likes of ISM and other organizations of their ilk.

What is most galling, is that while ISM champions the depravity of the Palestinians, it thinks nothing of the plight of truly innocent Israelis who must take faith that they will literally get to their destination on a Egged bus, or leave a cafe, in one piece.

The Palestinians have no one to blame but themselves for their situation, and groups like ISM do nothing to help the Palestinians better their position, and instead support the myth of victimization that allows the Palestinians to rationalize homicide bombings and other terrorist operations within Israel, Gaza and the West Bank as legitimate compnents of national self determination.

My G-d, get educated and have the intellectual wherewithall to see through the myths, propaganda, and, frankly, bullshit, that has come to define the Palestinian cause.

But a bulldozer pinned me
And soon it did rend me

When Arab barbarians succeed in killing Israelis or Americans, they pour into the streets to celebrate the carnage. That's because their religion is a Death Cult.

Israelis did not spontaneously celebrate Rachel Corrie's death. That doesn't mean they didn't feel justice was served. It's just that they--in contrast to the Arabs--are civilized.

There are two possible reactions to the death of someone who was foolishly killed persuing her misguided beliefs.

First off, that's just not true.

Second, would it be different if she were running guns for Hamas, or wearing a bomb-belt? As it happens, she was protecting a weapons tunnel, you know, the ones where the Hamas guns and bomb-belts come from.

If she had succeeded, perhaps we'd see another headline like this: Israeli killed, two injured, in West Bank shooting attack

I've spoken to a 'pacifist' who went to the Gaza strip, a guy who said that it would be better if the 'resistance' targetted settlers and soldiers. The notion that pacifism may not be compatible with adivising terrorists on public relations evidently did not occur to him. If you know anything about Corrie, you'll have heard her hate-filled rants. Hell, just scroll up and look at the picture.

You're right on one thing. She stood for everything I hate, and frankly she got what she deserved. This wasn't Tiananmen Square; she was working for Islamists in their quest to cleanse the world of the infidel. She picked a side, no less than the guys who opened fire on a family car tonight in the West Bank.

Guess what? She picked the wrong side, and died for it.

The way I remember it, the joke went like this:

A man isn't feeling well, so he goes to the Emergency. They run some tests, and then they hospitalize him. "Oh, my God, what's wrong with me?" he asks the doctor.

The doctor tells him. "According to the tests, you have AIDS, EBOLA, Syphillis, hepatitis, and Mad Cow Disease."

"Oh, my God," the man says. "Is there anything you can do?"

"Yes," says the doctor. "Starting today, we're putting you on a diet of pizza, pita bread, and pancakes."

"Why, will that help?"

"No, but nobody wants to be in the same room with you, and that the only food that will fit under the door."

Hello,

First of all let me thank any and all, who do reply and assist me on this matter, your help is greatly appreciated.

For several years I have been considering taking the Foreign Service exam. I share the same view of the State Department as many of you here and have spent many arguments railing against their policies and practice’s. That being said, I cant stand a hypocrite and I would be hypocritical to not at the very least explore making a difference from the inside. I do greatly understand the challenge of not only enacting the change of a mindset and the inertia of a bureaucracy.

I do want to, as contrite as it may sound, serve my country, perform a role not measured in dollar figures and work for something bigger than myself. After several attempts I have come to the conclusion that I will be unable to obtain medical waivers to serve in either the military forces and or a federal enforcement agency of my choosing. ( Metal rod in right knee, 3 times hyperextension)

Without being a windbag I am trying to get feedback on the Foreign Service exam, what it entails, anyone’s opinions on it and suggestions for test prep. This is somewhat last minute with the exam April 24th, but I feel with my background and a good deal of free time, I will have sufficient time to study.

To save some time ….30 yr. old BA, Economics and Political Science 5 years experience in mutual fund industry and finance.

Your help would be greatly appreciated and to save others grief if you have a lengthy response and or many links to post, please emails me at kilroywuzhere@msn.com.

Thank you

and see that making a joke out of this poor sweethearts untimely demise is cruel and inhuman. I, for one, wept upon hearing the news of dear Corries demise.

You, for one. Me, for one, I didn't. I don't call someone who aids and abets the killing of innocent men, women and children, a "poor sweetheart".

I have wept even harder today with coming to the realization that there are people like yourselves out there who feel no compassion and love for their fellow earth inhabitants.

Here's some Kleenex. In the meantime, please refer to my previous two replies.

When I was at UCSC banana slugs were the unofficial mascot. Then, for the first time, they formed a basketball team and had to adopt an official mascot. The chancellor, Sinscheimer decided the mascot would be the seal or sea lion or something like that. The students protested and their protest reached the editorial pages of the San Francisco Chronicle and Newsweek. Finally, it was brought to a vote and the banana slug won by 75% or so.

These are the kinds of issues it's worth standing in front of a tractor for.

Is UCSC still incredibally leftist? At the time Santa Cruz had a "Marxist-Feminist" mayor. Being a Democrat was considered right wing. There was a total of three Republicans on the whole campus. You had to be an idiotarian if you wanted to meet chicks.

You have more than enough time to study.

As Colt (#271) pointed out, there is an expert (KevinV) here on the matter.

But, FWIW, my most recent roommate is currently a foreign service officer (consular, in Reykjavik).

She said the written test was not that difficult, and that the study guide was sufficient to pass it - so you should be good there.

But you should definitely get advice from KevinV (or someone else who's already been accepted) for information on the oral exam, which is supposed to be more difficult, and choice of career track, which I believe is ranked in terms of ease of entry into program (i.e., they need more consular officers than public diplomacy types, so if you apply as a CO, you have a better shot).

Good luck!

Palestinian President Yasser Arafat (news - web sites) speaks to Journalists outside his headquarters in the West Bank city of Ramallah January 13, 2003.

Note that date. So does this mean a) Reuters is recycling a photo that's exactly one year old, or b) Reuters editing is too poor to pick up an obvious (if common) error in the date? I suspect the latter.

Austin from Boston #267,

My father works for the State Dept. From what he told me (from over 25 years ago), the exam is pretty rigorous, especially on American History. He was an MA in American history and managed to pass that section, but it wasn't easy.

Also, unless you're black, hispanic, or female, promotions in the State Dept. are not always easy to get.

I don't feel comfortable sending information via e-mail because it could be used against by father. But if you have some questions, I'll try to answer them. I'll especially be able to answer questions about how it's like raising a family abroad, etc.

I'm sorry. The article you cite is seriously flawed.

The un-named "chemical used to make sarin" is acetonitrile, a common solvent that has multiple legitimate uses. I use it in my own lab for chromatography.

Dithioglycol, on the other hand, is not a chemical at all. There is no compound by that name listed in the 11th edition Merck.

OK, I looked at the top of the page and I see an Islamo-Nazi seething with rage.

I'm glad the IDF did not let her prevent them from completing the mission. She sided with the forces of evil and paid the price.

But I'm not about to smile and pass out sweets because a 23-year old idiot sacrificed herself for jihad-genocide.

Instead, I am saddened to see that our media, education system, and culture promote moral relativism, because I know this leads young, impressionable, mush-headed young people like Rachel Corrie to support a gang of mass murderers masquerading as a liberation movement.

You see, it's possible to believe that the IDF was 100% justified in bulldozing her, and that she got exactly what she deserved, without celebrating like a barbaric Arab Death Cultist.

315 Abu Muttar Fakir  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 11:23:39am

I admit that I voted for the fat one but I'm not that upset over the outcome.

What this award does, IMHO, is counter, in part, the propoganda that ISM and fellow travelers shamelessly derive from her death. Would that Horst Wessel was similarly ridiculed in the 1930's. Horst Wessel is, I believe, a nearly perfect analogy for St Rachel of the Pancakes.

It is not her death which we ridicule, rather, it's her life and inane beliefs which caused her death.

Michael Moore has to be crushed he didn't win


A Well-Deserved Award
Little Green Footballs has given out its second annual Robert Fisk Award for Idiotarian of the Year. This year's winner: Rachel Corrie, the terror advocate who died in a bulldozer accident last March. Corrie picked up 28.8% of the vote in the 10-candidate finals, edging out Michael Moore (26.7%), who also finished second (behind Jimmy Carter) in 2002. Moore, who we hear dedicated his most recent "book" to Corrie, is the Susan Lucci of idiotarians. As one LGF commenter writes, "Michael Moore has to be crushed he didn't win."

Was this woman evil? Yes, I think she was. If not, she was certainly naive, stupid, misguided and a dung beetle in the shit pile of the middle east. Did she deserve to die? Maybe.

Do WE have the right to gloat at her death? To shove her death in the face of her parents (someone suggested sending her parents the award)? To dance for joy at her demise? My point is simple - how did WE react? As civilized human beings who behave differently than the islamist scum we villify – or were we simply a variation of the same gloating turd?

If we do believe we have the right to gloat at another dead human being, then why are we surprised and shocked when muslims dance for joy when an American dies?

In my opinion, we have behaved EXACTLY like our enemy. I know my opinion on this subject is not a popular one and I have been accused of being a troll (because my views are not lock-step with the brown-shirts) but I believe in my heart we have crossed a fundamental line separating the good guys from the bad guys...

I believe there are more people crowing in these comments about having backed a winner than actually voted for Rachel.

Especially because I did too! I figured it would be her last chance.

And #342 Flanstein, part of my visceral reaction toward her to this day is due to the continued attempt to deify her. If the choice is between deification and mockery, then I choose mockery.

It seems to me that after two hours of her yelling through a megaphone at the driver he finally gave in. I mean, it probably was his job to do the bidding of a radical, American, twenty-something nobody, right?
Everytime this girl's story is brought up I think of the scene in Austin Powers where he and Elizabeth Hurley are in the steam-roller several yards away from the "henchman" and travelling at .2 miles an hour while the henchman helplessly screams "NOOO!"

Ack, too much to read! Congratulations to Rachel's parents for earning their trip to enjoy the hospitality of the murderous Yassir Arafat. You raised a kind and caring daughter, and know just how to celebrate her memory and what she stood for. The spark of hatred she kindled in the eyes of thousands of youths will surely bear fiery fruit for years to come.

Still, I'm not satisfied with this last-chance sentimental selection, but understand since it was her one and only time to grab the brass ring. Too bad my boy Kofi and the UN were split, or he/they might have seized the momentum early and never looked back. And that Michael Moore is a perpetual loser should suprise no one, least of all Michael Moore. Face it, after a strong start to the year he threw in the towel with his eyes on the coming bliss of the kind of Dolly Madison pity-binge only a multi-millionaire could afford.

Of course with every choice comes consequences. All those who didn't reach the mountaintop this time around are surely redoubling their efforts as we speak. The idiotarian award is therefore declared, without so much as a glance toward rhyme or reason, to be the root cause of idiotarianism. What a year it's going to be.

And you're wrong as you were the first time you posted it.

Mocking her idiotic demise (which took place while she was busy defending and promoting evil) serves to counter those who allege that she died doing good.

I couldn't care less about "hurting the feelings" of those who believe that supporting the extinction of Israel was somehow a feather in her cap. Those folks deserve a wake-up call, not a hug.

There is no room for compromise in matters like this--there is no "honor" to be found for doing evil, even if one is "sincere" in their efforts.

She was an accomplice to evil, and had the mainstream media done its job, there would be no need for pages like this to correct the assignment of right and wrong. If we are silent on such matters, history will "teach" other misguided folks the same poorly thought-out course of action, and evil will perpetuate evil.

Sorry, no apology and no tears.

OT

The central fact about terrorists is not that they are deranged, but that they are not alone. Among Palestinians, they are recruited by Hamas, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, among others. In Singapore, their recruitment begins with attendance at religious schools. If ardent and compliant, they are drawn into Jemaah Islamiyah, where they associate with others like themselves. Being in the group gives each member a sense of special esteem and exclusivity, reinforced by the use of secrecy, code names, and specialized training. Then they are offered the chance to be martyrs if they die in a jihad. Everywhere, leaders strengthen the bombers’ commitment by isolating them in safe houses and by asking them to draft last testaments and make videotapes for their families, in which they say farewell

Whoa. On behalf of our producers Kathleen Glynn and Michael Donovan from Canada,
I'd like to thank Little Green Footballs for this.
I have invited my fellow Idiotarian nominees on the stage with us, and we would like to — they're here in solidarity with me because we like nonfiction, except, of course, for the winner Rachel Corrie, who for obvious reasons, couldn't be here tonight. We like nonfiction and we live in fictitious times.
We live in the time where we have fictitious election results that elects a fictitious president.
We live in a time where we have a man sending us to war for fictitious reasons.
Whether it's the fictition of duct tape or fictition of orange alerts or the fictition of Idiotarians, we are against this war, Charles Johnson.
Shame on you, Mr. Bush, shame on you.
And any time you got the Pope and the Dixie Chicks and Paul Krugman and Maureen Dowd and the BBC and George Soros and Howard Dean and every little Jew-hating Islamist against you, your time won't be up for quite some time.

I have a question for all of the resident LGF geniuses. I've been puzzling about this for years.

After France was liberated from the Germans in WWII, French woman that had collaborated with the Germans had their heads shaved. The pictures have been floating around for years and the question is, why are they laughing and smiling? They look like they're having a great time. Should they be chastened and afraid?

I feel sooo chastised. I'll tell you what. I'll print that bloody hands picture, print Rachel's flag burning picture, soak them in water and drink their tea in an ancient and formal moral equivalence ritual. Will that be penance enough O wise one? Will you then finally fuck off (and die)?

Ms Corrie owes a big thank you to the Seattle P-I and other media numbskulls for their moon-eyed promotion of her terror-ennabling sainthood. In the final analysis, it was hard for even Mr Moore's spectacular verbal feces-throwing exhibition at the Oscars to compete with the continuous drumbeat of the Pancake media machine.

We here gloat at the death of someone supporting evil Arabs who only want to kill good Jews and Americans that help others so they can share our Truth, Justice, and Republican Way.

In contrast, they gloat over those few good Jews and Americans that are killed for stopping them from spreading their Koranic Lies, Sharia False Justice, and their Third World, Imperialistic, Prejudiced, and Totally Ignorant and Evil Way of Life on others who don't want it anyway.

To all wanna-be trolls,

Enjoy your visit and take some time to look around. Make sure you visit the links in the upper right hand corner under "never forget". If you open your minds, you may find your visit enlightening.

Rachel Corrie is not some young innocent like the propagandists are telling you. She was an enemy combatant helping terrorists to kill innocent civilians.

We do not celebrate the deaths of innocents. We do gleefully recognize the deaths of those trying to kill innocents and their accessories.

How many tears did you shed over the dead Israeli babies killed by suicide bombers?

452 piglet  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 1:19:27pm

Yes, I have been to the West Bank, including Bir Zeit University, and a settlement. When were you there?
Did you spread word when a checkpoint was open?
Did your words allow a bomber to get thru and blow up a bus, ripping off the legs of jewish girls with rusty nails coated with rat posion? Did you stage a protest that kept IDF personel busy while gunmen snuck into a bedroom and murdered a mother and her children?
When the 10 year old arab boys told you they wanted to be a suicide bomber and kill jews, did you tell them it was wrong. I am no more moved by Corrie's death than I would cry over an S.S. grave.

The quote below makes me almost as mad as you do.

2. Ronald Reagan at a later press conference:

"I think that there's nothing wrong with visiting that cemetery where those young men are victims of Nazism also, even though they were fighting in the German uniform, drafted into service to carry out the hateful wishes of the Nazis.

Moonbats,
You should surely have a better understanding of what is happening here.

After all, you adhere to the same conformist cult that cheered when Stalinist tanks bulldozed into Saigon in 1975, and whose adherents shout obscentities and attack passersby during guerilla-theatre affirmation rituals ("anti-war demonstrations").

You should therefore understand that the desecration of St. Rachel's memory is a calculated political act, a direct repudiation of the depraved value system that drives this person's canonization.

It is perhaps not as emphatic, in your view, as blowing oneself up in a pizza parlor (among other froms of expression that you approve) but it is certainly neither as cruel nor as destructive.
Desecrate St. Rachel=evil
Blow up pizza parlor=good

In short, shove your moralizing up your hypocritical arses.

BS"D

to the ravening, slavering fool of # 439 :

People like you are the reason I have to tell everyone I'm Canadian when I travel
No, your being an invertebrate is the reason you lie to people when you travel. Your sort of wanking wombat weirdo are always just to happy to lie, if you think it will suit your goal.

no wonder everyone hates us so much

Mmm, no, the reason Americans are hated in many places overseas is quite simple JEALOUSY. If you live in a crap castle, it is easy to build up hatred for someone who worked hard and built a mansion on a hill, not only for himself, but for all of the millions of others who have come here seeking a better life.

You have no respect for courage, which leads me to beleive you don't have any yourself.

Wrong again, I have the greatest respect for the brave men women and children who against all odds continue to go about the business of living in Israel, when faced with, on a daily basis the absolute most vile sand-savagery from the ravening idiot turboon bedu squatters. Brave men & women who serve their country, either the US or Israel have my heartfelt admiration, & respect (having served myself, and been injured defending this, my adopted country I am a bit touchy about whinging layabouts daring to criticise my courage) However, I have no respect for, or patience with over-the-edge, beyond-the-pale stupidity, the sort of which ms. crepe d'Corrie was a near perfect exemplar.

have any of you even been to Isreal/West Bank/Gaza? If you havn't then you should shut your ignorant fucking mouths becausse you have no idea what it's like there, and therefore no idea what your talking about.

Yes, indeed I have been to Judea, Samaria, and the district of Gaza. I own several dunams of land in both Judea and Samaria. As for ignorant *** mouths, yours is the first that should be shut, preferably in death.

A few hundred Isreals die in explosions? How about thousands of Palestians killed! Isn't that terrorism? I was there for only a month and I wanted to join in the fight

Ah, and here we have it, the long-awaited proof of Jew-hatred. What a surprise... not! I only wish you had had the courage of your "convictions" to dare to attack an Israeli, because I, for one would have happily shown you how long it can take to die from multiple gunshot wounds. You are a pathetic example of the sort of disingenuous faux-activist that is so common in coffee-houses and weblogs. Your sort fuss and rant, but in the end amount to nothing.

Dear #413 Atomic Redneck...,

About the "French woman that had collaborated with the Germans had their heads shaved... laughing and smiling"

I remember from Senior History Class that Prostitutes always had short hair. And the Greek Temple Priestesses / Ritual Prostitutes had their heads shaved.

I think it was done as a visible statement on their "prostitution" to the enemy. And to the lax sexual standards they apparently also had.

OH MY FUCKING GOD! WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU SICK BASTARDS?!

Um... I guess we don't swear enough?


People like you are the reason I have to tell everyone I'm Canadian when I travel,

And why, again, do assume that all LGF regulars are American? By the way, you forgot to add the standard-issue "unlike all of you stupid rednecks, who probably don't even have passports, I have traveled all over the world, and am a certified world-traveler, due to my globetrotting world-spanning travel!".

Let me guess, you guys were the ones cheering for the tank to keep going in tienimen square?

So, let me get this straight: we're a bunch of hardline right-wingers who... cheer on the Chinese Communist government? You're one deeply confused individual.

You have no respect for courage, which leads me to beleive yo udon't have any yourself.

LGF regulars include people who have disarmed bombs for a living, served in special operations forces, served in deep-cover intelligence capacities, etc. (I'm not one of these people.) Any one of them could teach you all you need to know about courage. And shilling for genocidally-minded terrorists, the way Rachel Corrie did, that ain't courage.

You all are a shining example that the Right is nothing but ignorant, uneducated, arogant, ethnocentric, nationalist, hatemongers.

GODDAMMIT YOU FORGOT "FASCIST"! You have no idea how much that hurts our feelings!

Have any of you even been to Isreal/West Bank/Gaza?

Call me crazy, but I'm just guessing that, say, the Israeli LGFers have probably been to Israel. (And by the way, please learn to spell the damn name correctly; it's not "Isreal".)

Jesús, you are WAY out of your depth here. Better to read and shut up for a while. As my grandad used to say, don't advertise your ignorance.

Wow, look at all the flies still swarming St. Rachels corpse! I've got to know if it's her naive hatred that has inspired the groupies, or are were they merely living through her, savoring their own fantasies of helping out the fascist right-wing theocrats in the West Bank and Gaza as they wage their war against democracy, women, gays and Jews.

Sorry, you guys can worship your pancake prophet. I'm going to side with freedom, human rights and hope. And resign myself to having to listen to you claim you're not aware of the true nature of the oppressive, murderous bastards you bow before.

#451 AR,RG: How many tears did you shed over the dead Israeli babies killed by suicide bombers?

More than you know, my friend. And spare me the lectures about "never forgetting" (as if those words on a web site alter any kind of reality.) Trust me, I'm reminded every waking day. You hope to hit a nerve by invoking the September dead?

I might ask you whether there is nothing so sacred that you would not desecrate it to score cheap rhetorical points. But no, we have not been introduced, and so I will take you at your word that you are sincere.

Therefore: there is an enormous difference between wishing an end to terrorism - indeed, in wishing ill of its cheerleaders - and gleefully wallowing in the deaths of young people for sport. You consider Corrie a moral idiot - my assessment of her is not much kinder. But in my imperfection I yet struggle to not to judge, for I know that I shall be judged in kind.

Condemn her outright, if you must. But to in addition celebrate a needless death, in truth nigh unto a murder, is a fool's game, and - further - wallowing in it for cheap laughs is the stuff of swine. Your petty "award" is an affront to this country's moral code. What could be more anti-American than to cast aside all possibility of redemption for one of its own?

Being correct in your assessment of another's moral depravity - as I assume you believe you are - does not dismiss you from your basic human responsibilities, one of which is to conduct yourself with dignity in the treatment of your fellow men. Great men held trials for the exterminists at Nuremberg; surely Rachel Corrie is due at least as much compassion from the likes of you.

No, it is not me whose mind needs "opening." But it is folks like yourself and your mindless playmates who have forever kept me from voting with my ideological brethren on the Right.

No doubt you will laugh at this, but know that it is true.

Rachael Corrie
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯&m acr;¯¯¯
[sung to the tune of Richard Cory, by Simon and Garfunkel]


They say that Rachael Corrie wears a standard left wing frown,
With political connections to Islamo-fascist clowns.
Born into society, Cascadia's flower child,
She had everything a girl could want - limousine-liberal style.

But we are on her hit list,
And we curse the scum who kill us,
And we want to see them bleed,
And we wish that we could see,
Oh, we wish that we could see,
Wish that we could see the corpse of
Rachael Corrie.


The papers print her picture almost everywhere she goes,
Rachael Corrie at a protest, Rachael Corrie at a show.
And the rumors of the flag she burned on Yasser Arafat's yacht,
While the lefties make her out to be just everything she's not.

But we are on her hit list,
And we curse the scum who kill us,
And we want to see them bleed,
And we wish that we could see,
Oh, we wish that we could see,
Wish that we could see the corpse of
Rachael Corrie.


Oh, she blithely wore a head scarf, and she had the common touch,
And terrorists gladly used her bod and thanked her very much.
So my mind was filled with wonder when the morning headline said,
"Rachael Corrie played Blues for Allah and joined the Grateful Dead."

But we are on her hit list,
And we curse the scum who kill us,
And we want to see them bleed,
And we wish that we could see,
Oh, we wish that we could see,
Wish that we could see the corpse of
Rachael Corrie.

As counterpoint, I have nothing but respect and sorrow for the Tibetan monks who set themselves on fire to protest the (brutal and real, unlike the disputed territories) Chinese occupation of Tibet. Those men killed only themselves for a cause that they believed in.

Why is it that none of the ISM tools are standing in front of Chinese bulldozers in Tibet? Is it because there are no terrorist weapons to protect or is it because they know that the Chinese would actually try to kill them?

Not all Seattle denizens are crazy lefties, it just seems that way! I liken it to Invasion of the Body Snatchers in this way: As a survival trait, one learns to keep an anonymous facade, lest the barking moonbats shriek and point with the usual frothing anytime they are confronted with anything outside of their "progressive worldview".

Regarding stupidly-deficient oversight of US export controls, here's what looks like a legitimate website citing the details of several dozen US companies (including HP and IBM) who supplied Iraq with a large quantity of highly-questionable materials. Al Haddad was just one of many:

Iraq War Material Suppliers

AL HADDAD ENTERPRISES INC

(Formerly based in Nashville, Tennessee — now defunct)

1984 to 1985 — Company sold 60 tons of DMMP, a material used to make sarin gas, to Iraq. Also provided chemical-production equipment to Iraq. In 1984, customs officials at Kennedy International Airport seized another Al Haddad shipment of 1,100 pounds of potassium fluoride, a chemical used in nerve-gas production. Al Haddad was not charged in this attempted transfer of chemicals, which were destined for Iraq’s Ministry of Pesticides. This firm also received letters of credit from BNL (an Italian bank) totaling $134,988 to sell knives and rubber blankets to Technical Corp. for Special Projects, an Iraqi front company. (Note: See Banca Nazionale del Lavoro entry for information about BNL’s Iraqi loans and letters of credit.)

The firm was owned by Sahib Abd al-Amir al-Haddad, an Iraqi-born, naturalized American citizen. According to corporate records from Tennessee’s Department of State, Al Haddad operated a number of registered firms, which are all inactive, dissolved or merged out. These firms included Al Haddad Enterprises, Inc.; A. Saleh & S. Al- Haddad, Inc.; and Al-Haddad Bros. Enterprises, Inc. Recent stories in The New York Times and The Tennessean reported that al-Haddad was arrested in Bulgaria in November 2002 while trying to arrange an arms sale to Iraq. At last report, Al-Haddad, 59, was awaiting extradition to Germany, where he is charged with conspiring in the late 1990s to purchase equipment for the manufacture of a giant Iraqi cannon.

I have a comment about what St. Corrie and all her paleo-stonian friends trolling here should do -

Go live in Saudi Arabia, the magic Kingdom! Where you can pray 5 times a day with all your friends and no one bothers you, learn the latest fatwa "doctrines", and share your putrid body stench with everyone!

I can't understand why all you liberal bleeding-hearts who say you're so worried about them, don't pitch in and help them all live the kind of life they want! It seems they have so much barren "real estate" available over there, you all should each be able to have about one square mile each! And build whatever home you want, with all the latest modern Islamic "additions"! (several tunnels on the back 40...)

And let us live our lives in peace...

Any takers?

Reports in this town have the production of "The Rachel Corrie Story" about to begin in mid-February for a major studio.
These reports also tell us that the first choice for Director, Leni Riefenstahl, became unavailable (untimely death), but that the producers are seelking Drew Barrymore for the title role. David Irving has been retained as technical advisor--for his expertise on Jews and the people with whom they have disagreements.
Michael Moore has bee ruled out for the role of the bulldozer, reportedly one associte producer said: "Orange just isn't his color."
More when available.

I could give a fuck less about resolutions or WMD. That was his only mistake in the endeavor. All he needed to say was Saddam is a danger, he's fucking dead. The only purpose the resolutions served is to try and appease you're kind, and now you regurgitate it like some kind of political fodder, 'Oh Bush really fucked us this time guys, we won't let him get away!

As someone who can stack their rightwing credentials against anyone on this blog I ask:

what honor this thread brings to the cause?
what lives will this action save?

Whne Corrie went down, I knew our enemies were going to beat her over our heads for a hundred years; this just gives the Yahoos (the swiftian flavor) more dander and point to question the rest of our positions and ideas.

Was Rachel Corrie remotely venal as the PA (still looking for the fellows that blew up the US convoy going on four months)?

Was she a pig like Mike Moore? What dumb ideas did you have about the world when you were 20? To paraphrase Clemenceau : anyone who is not a socialist in their teens and twenties has no heart, anyone who is still a socialist in their forties has no brain.

We are fighting brainwashed idiots like Rachel Corrie, every fair minded kid who looks at this thread and we lose because they think us mean spirited is a lost chance.

The left has led the world off a cliff of doublethinking contradictory PC lunacy. We are the activist thinkers who have to counter this foolishness; this does not make our cause shine brighter. Having posted here hundreds of times over the past year, having watched this blog become a beacon for righteously right-minded, I fail to see how this does anything more than make us appear callous.

Evil is evil but Rachel Corrie was a brainwashed fool for an evil cause.

Think about it folks.

I cannot understand how this story of Paul O'Neill's makes any sense whatsoever: The Iraq Liberation Act was passed by the 105th congress in 1998 authorizing the President to invade Iraq and overthrow Saddam Hussein; something they did while Bush was still a private citizen. Of course Bush had a plan to execute this law, he would have been remiss in not having a plan to execute this law. He mentioned plans several time during his campaign, it was part of his platform. Only the Didiots will buy this nonsense. Here is the text of the law, notice the WMD that Clinton alleged.

684 Dozer Joe  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 3:41:43pm

#516 Charles

Referring to the "nigh unto a murder" comment regarding RC's demise, take it from someone who's spent thousands of hours operating a D9 bulldozer: If Corrie sat herself down on the ground directly in front of a working bulldozer, as stated in the news, she'd placed herself directly in the worst blind spot of any large bulldozer. As in, TOTALLY INVISIBLE to the operator.

Let no one give her the benefit of the doubt. This was no "accident." She directly committed suicide, just as sure as if she'd sat down under a dark blanket in the express lane of an LA freeway on a rainy night.

Could you also post a couple of those photos of the little Pali kids wearing their practice splodeydope outfits, next to Rachel's raging photo above?

If this thread is attracting a lot of traffic, then the tourists deserve a fair, well-balanced first impression so they instantly know Corrie's full role in supporting Pali child abuse. One picture is worth a thousand words, etc.

What dumb ideas did you have about the world when you were 20?

Quite a lot. There is, however, an enormous difference between having stupid ideas and to allow those ideas to lead us to actively engage in odiously criminal behavior. That Rachel had strong convictions, I have no doubt. But having strong beliefs is just a white knuckled grip on the steering wheel. It is by those beliefs that we have to judge. And those beliefs led her to aid and abet murderers. Being young, stupid, and naive might be reasons that explain the behavior, but it is not an excuse for it. I don't think that there is anyone on this site that is 'happy' that she is dead. I am not happy that one of my fellow citizens turned her back on her country and her civilization. I am not happy that it led her to her death. But I am happy that here at LGF we have a forum where we can openly mock and ridicule those beliefs. Is it harsh? Yes it is. Does it need to be? If it can convince one person reading this site to think twice before swallowing the "Palestinians as poor oppressed victims of a colonialist power" meme, then a little callousness is much the lesser of two evils.

True. LGF has nothing to gain, and a lot of reputation/credibility to lose, by nonstop low-life spewing of indiscriminate "Ding, dong, the witch is dead" material that will be *forever* used as ammo to nibble away at the LGF foundation in the future.

Corrie won the prize? Great. She certainly deserved it. (Yawn) Now let's move on to bigger and better New Year's Resolutions, and remember to deposit our waste in the toilet where it belongs. If we indeed have a civilization to salvage, I for one don't care to wade thru someone else's sewage right here inside the castle.

Let's avoid creating the public image of the creep some years ago who was caught with a video camera, wading around waist-deep in the filth beneath the ladies' toilet at a roadside rest stop down south.

--On second thought, maybe that same character recently got an Oscar???

Rachel Corrie made herself a martyr to stupidity.

She is now being recognized for such with this award by people wise enough, and honest enough to see true idiocy for what it is.

We are in a war for the very survival of our culture, our values, our freedoms, and our way of life. She could have used her talents for the defense of liberty and justice. Instead, she died fighting for the enemy.

She was not drafted, coerced or shanghaied into her battles. She elected to fight them of her own free will.
She traveled thousands of miles out of her way to support terrorists whose failed tactics have dragged their own people through years of poverty and hate.
She could have pursued the hard road of peace but chose not to.

She could have respected the flag and honored the hope and opportunity it symbolizes for freedom loving people around the world. But instead she burned it in a display of rage so as to pass the poison of hatred on to a new generation of Palestinian children.

She could have worked toward convincing the Palestinians to abandon bloodshed for the path of civil disobedience in the way of Dr. Martin Luther King or Ghandi. Such tactics are of proven value against a moral adversary with a proven capacity for self reflection and guilt. But instead, she chose to defend an armament supply line used to perpetuate the slaughter of civilians.

She could have gotten out of the way of that bulldozer. Easily. But she chose to defy the law of physics. And died instead.

For this, We, the Lizardoid Minions at LGF, bestow upon Rachel Corrie the award of Idiotarian of the Year 2003 and all the rightful jeering and ridicule it entails.

743 Donna V.  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 4:32:12pm

My revised poem about Rachel, back by popular demand (100% of the inhabitants of Donna V. land demand it):

You may think it fun to burn the flag,
and wrap your head in a Pali rag.
But, ISM kiddies, observe Rachel Corrie.
Sat in front of a dozer, and ended her story.
No more will she rant and rave about Jews,
Adios, sayonara, she's yesterday's news.
It's one thing to protest in the Pacific Northwest,
But in a warzone, it's risky at best.
Don't feel bad if you laugh at this ass,
Her death isn't tragic, it's rather a gas.

OK random. Let's try to make this simple.
She was not some dumb american kid. She was supporting Palestinian terrorosts smuggling weapons from Egypt to kill more Israeli men, women, and children.
She was not run over by a jerk. She sat down in front of a dozer where the driver could not see her.
It's tragic that someone would die so stupidly. And it is laughable that the Jew hating left has made a hero out of such an idiot.

Stuff it Jack, and cry me a river. We are at war and people like Rachel Corrie are the enemy. If you were in NYC on 9/11 you'd give two shits about the life of a crap little American daughter of privilege that is helping the forces of evil succeed in killing us.

Our enemies are lying about and glorifying Rachel Corrie. It's part of the propaganda of the Islamic world designed to create sympathy for murdering muslims. If she gets a little stick from us here, think of it as a necessary counterweight in the media propaganda war.

"of the first water" is an expression that generally means "original, pure, unadulterated". I heard it years ago from a colleague to describe the office tyrant.

Such a waste of potential...

789 steve miller  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 5:22:26pm

Jennifer - let me help you. Rachel WENT OUT OF HER WAY TO ENABLE TERRORISTS TO KILL ISRAELIS.

That's why we make fun of her - because she avoided the truth that the terrorist she surrounded herself with were no innocents. She thought her moral rightness would cover over the terrorism.

She was stupid, like lefties that went to Iraq to chain themselves to likely targets. She supported terrorists.

Like someone trying to cross a street blindfolded, she got struck by the realities of nature: you don't try to stop a bulldozer with a bullhorn.

She thought that somehow her "Americanness" would keep her safe, and she thought NOTHING of the Israelis and the terror they suffer because of smuggled guns and explosives.

The so-called Palestinians dig tunnels under the wall, and smuggle weaponry through homes close to the wall. Rachel defended that practice, both by her actions of trying to stop a bulldozer AND by her deliberate avoiding of the weaponry.

She got caught doing something very stupid. She spent her time in Israel and the Disputed Territories burning American and Israeli flags and supporting terrorism. Why does that give her a pass from the judgment of rational people who would say, "Tough luck, girl."

My heart sincerely goes out to her family. I wish they had done a better job of raising her daughter. The two sentiments are not mutually exclusive.

"bad decision" -- feh!

Rachel Corrie loved terrorism and loved the idea that innocent Israelis would suffer because of her actions.

She did NOTHING to solve the problems. She ADDED to the problems, and she thought she'd get away with it because of her magical American passport.

She was WRONG.

Yeah, it's too bad she died. But she died doing something evil and calling it good.

There's no exemption from the realities of nature just because you feel good about what you're doing.

She made the mistake of thinking a huge bulldozer would exempt her from the results of her very arrogant assumptions.

There are lots of American heros. She's not one of them.

796 steve miller  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 5:29:32pm

Rachel Corrie's parents are to be pitied. They have to deal with their loss. They have to look back on a girl they raised that turned out to do a stupid action that cost her her life.

I feel for them. But I don't excuse their daughter from her own actions.

Rachel Corrie put herself in harm's way, in a battle zone, and like others, thought she could avoid getting hurt because of some magic aura.

Well, St. Flapjack differed from him only in that she never actually pulled the trigger - she just aided and abetted those who did.

She was the enemy. She died, defending terrorists.

Sucks to be the enemy, doesn't it? Especially considering her death was self-inflicted? And her life was spent defending an amoral cause?

As a parent, the only grief I would feel is the grief at the thought that I had raised an idiot - incapable of distinguishing between right and wrong, good and evil, life and homcide bombers.

My heart does not go out to them at all. Her parents went on tour among our enemies giving them aid, comfort and valuable propaganda support. They gave their tacit, if not express, support for the work of the terrorists and defended their own daughter's participation in their terrorist infrastructure. The apple fell not far from the tree. The parents were every inch the tool that she was.

My heart goes out to the parents and family of all the innocents killed the world over by Islamic murderers, like the very same murderers that Corrie was assisting.

Jaffar (#792):

My heart sincerely goes out to her family. I wish they had done a better job of raising her daughter. The two sentiments are not mutually exclusive.

Unfortunately, her parents chose to make contemptible fools out of themselves by their hajj to kiss Arafat's decomposing ass.

805 steve miller  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 5:37:32pm

I still feel sorry for Rachel's parents. I'm sure they thought that by removing Rachel's sense of right and wrong they were preparing her for real life. They chose wrongly, and their daughter died.

Actions have consequences.

You folks truly are a sick, depraved, disgusting lot. The hate and bile that each of you is projecting towards a murdered woman (a PEACE ACTIVIST, mind you, not a terror-monger) makes me realize that none of you are better than the terrorists. I feel sorry for all of you.

Even tools can suffer from the loss of a child. I don't defend their parenting skills for a moment: they certainly have a large share of the blame for the way their daughter turned out, and groveling before Arafish was completely disgusting. I don't minimize her families suffering, nor (unlike JenM) do I use it as an excuse to forgive Rachel's own actions.

The thing is that Rachel Corrie had no right being there in the first place. The IDF have enough to worry about without idiots getting in the way and complicating matters, and I'm quite sure the driver of the bulldozer felt bloody awful about the fact that she died.

These troll-by "shootings: are getting loonier and loonier. Their wit, and use of facts, and guilt, is exceptionally hollow.

I particularly liked the wanker who try to differentiate St. Pancake from a terror-monger because she was a "PEACE ACTIVIST".

LMFAO!

Peace Activist?!! when in reality, as illustrated by the photo at the top of the thread - she is a major tool and supporter of TERROR-MONGERS!

Sure they can and do. But I don't feel one bit sorry for her or them. Whatever temptation to feel sorrow at their loss I might have had, evaporated the moment they went over to the mideast to support the very people that have succeeded in, and are relentlessly, trying to kill us here and Americans around the world.

She was a terror enabler and she was a morally misguided moron (like you).

822 The Train  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 5:52:04pm

I think I could have saved her by marrying her, teach her a lesson or two, so to speak, stifle that rebel yell in love of God. However, I'd have had to become Muslim first, in order to add one more wife. I'm somewhat noble, so to speak, and would never dump a good wife, or any other wife, for that matter. But, I'm afraid of not going to heaven to be with God. That's my number one goal, to get to heaven, and the Muslims don't seem to offer any concrete means to heaven, no bus, so to speak. Jesus is the train.

I'm sure I'll be lit up for this, but it seems awful to take so much joy in one idiot's death. Better to go after a living, breathing idiotarian, such as Michael Moore. But then, I'm biased. I voted for him.

RIP Rachel. Hope you aren't so credulous in the next one.

824 Jaffar  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 5:52:53pm

Ok. Agree to disagree. If one of my own children did something like what Rachel did, I think I would think several things at the same time: 1. soul crushing, world-destroying grief and pain and 2. boiling, seething anger that they did something so incredibly stupid, and 3. bitter regret and guilt that I didn't do a better job as a parent.

Maybe in our helpless to bring her back to life, we should just be more careful, keeping this young lady in our memories, symbolic of all other people killed in accidents. That would go a long way, don't you think, towards reducing the accidents around the world. Granted, she was in a place she wasn't supposed to be in, but human beings do that a lot. It's something to be expected. I think the world would be better if but we were to get enough sleep, never drink alcohol or caffeine or use any other drugs, and go for a brisk walk, swim, etc. each day to get enough exercise. That, and don't work too much. Then, we'd be a lot more careful.

Some random thoughts about this thread:

How can anyone look at the picture at the top of this thread and call Rachel Corrie a "Peace Activist?" Unless "Peace Activist" means as some have suggested for years: un-American supporters of totalitarianism.

Umm...did anyone see 'The Practice' on Sunday night? I feel the quality of the show has generally declined since Dylan MacDermott left the cast, but last week's show was excellent IMHO. Though, it would have been better without the obligatory reference to the 'patriot act'. Not every legal proceeding is affected by the patriot act. Argh.

838 Dom  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:07:11pm

LA Phil,

Your reasoning works against you and invariably millions like you, except that it is too disgusting to adopt. To reach that conclusion definitely takes a predetermined mind. You could have opened up with respect to the comments of xyz on this or that, but no, 'you people', 'none of you are better than the terrorists', 'sorry for all of you'. You are an ugly guy and you don't fool anyone. Understand many people seriously didn't like what Corrie was doing, don't buy her motives, think she was stupid to climb on a moving bulldozer, and feel entitled to say so without some evil-spewing nut like yourself calling it terrorism. There are many ways to voice a criticism but yours is mighty vile.

Camille-Renee and I dance around the room, celebrating the announcement.

***Yes, I am a Hoo, ( I forget who asked), as I graduated from MWC, which was the women's college of UVA at that time. It was in fact the last year MWC was affiliated with UVA (1973).

***Someone also asked why Camille-Renee is not allowed on LGF--- it is because of the profanity & other mature issues. Otherwise it would be a great site for her to read. But I read a lot of it to her. She has a lot to do with her studies & boyfriend anyway, natch.

There are some of us parents who still like our teenaged kids to speak English without every other word as an expletive. There is enough of that on the airwaves. Plus, she is on scholarship to a private Catholic school, & the code is pretty strict.

As for Rachel Corrie, it is a pity it has come to this, that a person's life has become a mockery for some 800 people. How sad, but she did it on her own.

851 evariste  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:18:22pm

853 Chris  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:19:22pm

You know, I think Rachel getting the award is perfect, judging from the sheer shock and horror of some of the comments: the award won't be used as a tool of enjoyment, unlike Michael Moore, who will devour it like a large HoHo and then write a book on "Joseph Goebbels, er, Charles Johnson and the Good Germans, er Zionists."

Rachel's supporters have seethed and whined throughout the thread, and presumably would if the news of the award was more prevalent. Isn't that how those facing the status of Idiotarian should really react?

Sorry, but isn't it obvious, to even you, that RC was only totally full of hate for America and Israel, and all that our Countries and Governments stand for, and our world-envied morality and way of life, and the first-rate lives we do live, etc. etc. etc. - that all she wanted to do, along with her "friends" (if such a selfish, hate-filled person can actually have friends), is to kill each and every one of us?

Just because she died and not us - do you want us to feel sorry for her?

Do you think she'd feel sorry for us?

(BTW, I agree - such behavior does not rate an "award", or any type of "recognition" that might be misconstrued as "honor", of her or her petty thoughts and acts. But then, no one pays me to run a weblog!)

868 Athos  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:31:17pm

Dennis Prager wrote this in March - Who killed Rachel Corrie?

Rachel Corrie, the Olympia, Wash., college student killed trying to protect a Palestinian house -- a house, remember, not even a human being -- against an Israeli bulldozer, will probably not merit a footnote in history books. That's too bad, because her life and death, the way she has been portrayed in some media, and the reactions of her college are powerful examples of an America with many morally confused individuals.
Rachel Corrie chose to side with a society that breeds some of the cruelest murderers of innocent people in the world. Rachel Corrie gave her life trying to protect people whose declared aim is to annihilate another country. In the name of saving children's lives, Rachel Corrie chose to defend a society that teaches its young children to blow themselves up and which deliberately targets children for death. And Rachel Corrie went to America's enemies to burn her country's flag.
We are told ad nauseam that Rachel Corrie was a "peace activist." So let it be said once and for all that most of these people are moral frauds. Why? Because "peace activists" routinely protest only against peaceful countries. Has there been one Evergreen State or other "peace activist" in Sudan during its Islamic government's slaughter and enslavement of millions of blacks? Are there any "peace activists" in Tibet to protect its unique culture from being eradicated by the Communist Chinese? Did you notice any "peace activists" trying to save the millions of North Koreans dying at the hands of their lunatic government? Of course not. Rachel Corrie and other "peace activists" only target peace-loving Israel and America.

That is why they, and Rachel are idiotarians.

Hello, I would like to buy a fish license, please.

A what?

A license for my pet fish, Eric.

How did you know my name was Eric?

No, no, no... my fish's name is Eric, Eric the fish. He's an 'alibut.

A what?

He is...an...'alibut.

You've got a pet halibut?

Yes. I chose him out of thousands. I didn't like the others, they were all too flat.

:^)

Spiny Norman...it is loading relatively slowly, but I'm assuming that with a thread this long, there's been a culling of dial-upers from the herd and it's only high-speeders now. Charles might want to see a four digit post, also.

After we hit 1000 posts, let's never do this again. It's getting a wee bit boring, and the anticipation is agonizing. :-)

Rachel so flat, she uses a bandanna for a bra!
Rachel so flat, you can hang her on the wall as art!
Rachel so flat, you can lay Kansas straight on top of her!
I'm starting to reach, so I'm retiring from the "Rachel so flat" line of jokes. Contributions welcomed! :D

903 Deathberg  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:48:25pm

Holy shit! I got 900 and I wasn't even trying!

904 Fay  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:48:28pm

Aargh, I'm only doing this because I know it's going to hit the K and I want it over with already.

Come on people RWC and I are better at trolling than this!!!


Thanks. Good job last night. - although wondering how you didn't get banned.

At least we already know for certain this thread would be thicker than St. Pancake herself...

"The Envelope, Please"

This could be the first time that the winner is actually inside the envelope.

909 Dar ul Harbarian  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:50:01pm

See Deathberg! I told you to relax.

Like waiting for the ball to drop an hour beforehand.


#901 Austin from Boston

Come on now. Read up on gambling strategy. You gotta time it just right
NOW !!! 910th

913 Chris  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:52:47pm

Someone better save this to disk for posterity once we get above 1000...

914 Doss  Tue, Jan 13, 2004 6:52:58pm

This is like the last bad influence of the Peace Crepe- forcing all of us to trudge along the treadmill in search of the mystical 1000th post.

UPDATE:
British ISM tool Tom Hurdnall has died.
Hurdnall had spent nine months in a "vegetative state" after being shot by an IDF trooper on April 11.

From Amish tech support:

As promised, I have completed the Official Parody READY.PS Poster depicting the steps necessary to stop a bulldozer from demolishing a tunnel for ferrying weapons and terrorists under Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip. I would prefer that people point to this entry's URL instead of directly to the image so I can get an idea who how many folks are pointing to it.


Official Parody READY.PS Poster

It is about 166K, in JPG format, and 10.59 by 8 inches so it should just barely print on most color printers.

Finally, none of the proceeds from any future sale of this poster will go to the palestinian Authority, United Nations, International Solidarity Movement, Red Crescent Society, the Rachel Corrie Memorial Fund, or Evergreen University.
