First of all, attending college is a shaky representation of the word "education". Having received a Bachelors in General Studies (working towards a MBA in Mechanical Engineering) I have sat in my fair share of classrooms. Anyone, that can afford it, can sit in a classroom and be lectured. Anyone that can read has every opportunity to get themselves a library card. Combine the two (if anyone is interested, I will sit here and lecture them and assign reading. When you have done this for as long as I think you should, I will email a diploma from SAWgunner University) and you have a a piece of paper awarded to you for being able to not think for yourself. I hated college because it wore me down arguing with "professors".
Now that we have both leveled ourselves as college educated men, I will throw in my Ace. What you have undoubtably read about and described in your Poli-Sci and current events papers, I have seen with my two issued optical devices. You, sir, may argue until you are blue in the face about how it is wrong to be in Iraq. I have looked into hundreds of Iraqi's eyes. Have you? Do you understand what it is like to know that your children may be hung from a goal post because they will not conform? I do not either, but it has been described to me by Afghani citizens.
Whatever the cause of our involvement in Iraq, your brethren that share your political views have spit in the face of the Iraqi people. Become a man and send them letters describing how you and the self-promoted "elite" of the United States have, based on your college "educations", decided that since you do not agree with the reasons we came there, they can be tortured to death. I will help you out.
Start with this,
"Dear Iraqi person(s),
I am writing on behalf of the liberalistic people of America which includes such brilliant people as most of our actors in Hollywood and our worldly educated college professors (this will undoubtably impress them and hook them into reading further). We understand what it is like to be in your shoes, because some of us were once labeled as "nerds" (always sympathize with your subject). We hated being called nerds, so we went to school and now compete with the Jones' to make sure the new model year Lexus SUV is in our garage. So all you have to do is go to school, and the years of being tortured to death and gassed will be a distant memory (Always offer a good solution). Throughout history governments have taken care of their unarmed citizens, so if you could just hand in all of your guns, Your problems will be solved (throw in a little extra, it sounds fair and it will get them to do what we want). Oh wait, you did that. Oh well.
Yours truly,
Michael Moore (Have someone that the Iraqi people will be impressed with to sign it) "
That should get you started. Feel free to sign with your surname (I picked Michael Moore because he has impressed me as the world's foremost expert on Iraqi history) and to add the word "like" after every third word if this letter is sent by one of your educated Californian counterparts.
In short, the only people that you are impressing are your fellow POC's (Prisoners of Cubicles) at the water cooler Monday morning with your manly tales of outwitting the "Blue Collar" Republican crowd on a website.
Your friend,
SAWgunner
P.S. (That means post script to all of you rednecked not college educated folks in here (remember, speak their lingo)) Don't tell any of your friends that you know of an educated Republican that owns a gun. Worlds will collide and end as we know it.
