#2 You know the war's going well when sadsack hasbeen can't even get up the energy to make a really NASTY verbal attack on the "forces of evil". Maybe that's because too many people know that the "forces of evil" are his fellow snakes.

#5 I rather suspect that the Iraqis are recycling old Sammy invective, since he's not in any shape to conjure up new insults. Sort of like old "Tonight Show" re-runs.

#6 Heh- Yes. "Heeeeere's Sammy!"

"Umm, Ditto. (owch) Yes. Ditto. Infidels. (owch)"

#9 Reminds me of the line for Aliens, when told to not fire their main weapons, the Marine sarcastic retort was "What the hell are we supposed to use man, harsh language?"

Or Monty Python's Frenchmen: "Now Go Away or I shall Taunt you a Second Time!"

#11 a valiant Arab crusader

LMAO!!!
I just can't get past that.
That. Is. So. Funny.
Using "valiant" and "Arab" in the same sentence!
Hilarious.

#12 Even worse: How can a Moslem be a "crusader" (i.e. fighting for the cross)???

#13 Noting can touch the ultimate cold war epithet coined by the Chinese and their surrogates in North Vietnam: "Running dog yankee imperialists" Man, that one used to really smart! Next to that, the current blather from the terrified morons in Baghdad pales in comparison.

#15 I've got some really good ones, but if I gave them out I would be accused of giving aid and comfort to the enemy. All of our suggested invectives on ourselves would be seen as what they are---borrowed from the Coalition of the Willing and not original material.

#16 A friend of mine in Germany had the perfect comeback to "your momma wears combat boots":
"Yeah, and they have half-inch spikes in the sole - but I see you've already found out."

DON'T get into a cutting contest with a bunch of old warriors...
