Asshole/Projector Of The Day

Frank Miller (if that's his real name) the comic something-or-another, weighs in on Occupying.
Wake up, pond scum. America is at war against a ruthless enemy.

Maybe, between bouts of self-pity and all the other tasty tidbits of narcissism you’ve been served up in your sheltered, comfy little worlds, you’ve heard terms like al-Qaeda and Islamicism.

And this enemy of mine — not of yours, apparently - must be getting a dark chuckle, if not an outright horselaugh - out of your vain, childish, self-destructive spectacle.
We're chuckling at someone's spectacle alright. Or getting a horse-laugh from a horse's-ass.

And we, not you, will damn well decide who our enemies are or aren't.

Isn't that the definition of our war on Iraq?

Those worlds aren't so sheltered and comfy anymore, hence the movement.

Damn, comic book guy really needs to get out of his multi-million dollar mama's basement someday.

This is funny coming from the guy who made his money writing about Batman:

In the name of decency, go home to your parents, you losers. Go back to your mommas’ basements and play with your Lords Of Warcraft.

LORDS of Warcraft?


Don't read the comments; they'll make you weep for this country.

Frank is mad, mad that DC didn't go for his "Batman vs. Al Qaeda" project, and mad that the re-tooled concept, sans Batman, wasn't published before Osama got whacked. Frank shit his pants on 9/11 and gave his inner bully free reign, not unlike Dennis Miller, who is not related to Frank but ought to be.

Gosh. Let's see.

Terrorists who gave us a Very Bad Day ten years ago, not much more than an existential threat, really, since then, much less the kind of all-out Gehenna the Soviets threatened us with for fifty years, and, regardless of what WATBs like Miller want to think, hardly present any danger to our domestic freedoms other than in pants-pisseing legislator's overreaction to them.

Versus

CEOs and hedge fund managers, relentless collection agencies that have driven people to suicide, foreclosures by robosigners, the ever-shrinking realm of not-for-profit anything, data mining, corporate tracking, Monsanto demanding the news being re-written, childish distractions of celebrity and adoration of wealth, and a raft of would-be Free World rulers who warn us that we need to make even more shared sacrifice, "shared" being defined as "everyone making less than $50k/year", not to mention lives threatened by environmental disasters and industrial accidents from exploding plants and oil spills down to the safety lockouts taken off the machine to allow faster, more "productive" work.

I just can't figure out which is the bigger threat. Huh. Which one...? Huh. Choices, choices.

Well, one could argue that Al Quaeda is getting a dark chuckle out of the fact that we allowed the Bush Administration to distract us with hysteria and fear, so they could erode our civil liberties and enable the corporate crooks to decimate the economy.

I'm sure that self destructive spectacle exceeded their wildest dreams.

W/in a wk. or two of 11 Sept. 2001, we heard none other than Ollie North say that he figured Al Qaeda had shot its wad & wouldn't be able to do anything similar again. And Ollie North was right, meaning Frank Miller is less intelligent than "Col." North. Damning.

Damn, comic book guy really needs to get out of his multi-million dollar mama's basement someday. LMFAO and gawd knows I need a good laugh lately.
