Somone should put out a dictionary.
"No blood for oil" = "I was peeved that Bush won the election"
"support our troops" = "shut up and do as Bush says"
"human sheilds" = "see, all the anti-war people are crazy hippees"
"war on terror" = " If you disagree with Bush than you are a traitor"
anyone else have ideas?

"Bush is Hitler" == "I am a total *******"
"Saddam has links to Bin Laden" == "I am a a total mark"
"We need another resolution" == "Which I won't support action against if they break"
"Unilateralism is bad" == "I don't know anything about history or military strategy and therefore do not realize that coalition attacks are suboptimal and usually undermine the use of special forces"
"Saddam must be disarmed" == "then dislegged, then decapitated, we really want him dead or exiled, not disarmed"

"Regime Change" - Assassination
"Disarmament" - We want Saddam's head mounted on the wall in the oval office
"Coalition Force" - 93% Americans, 6% Brits, 1% everybody else.
"U.N. Resolution" - toilet paper
"War on terror" - If you disagree with the president's policy, then you must be against all that America stands for, there is no middle ground.
"Terror threat alert system" (the HLS color chart) - How much you should overreact to the rhetoric on TV about imminent attacks on the U.S.

"Let the Inspections Work" - Twelve years shmelve years. Chill out. Let me get back to my reality tv shows and we can all revisit this issue at a later time.
"Not In Our Name" - Although I'm just a shallow Hollywood celebrity, I know what's best for this country. I have my own intelligence information.
"What about North Korea?" - I'm against all war, but since we're busy on Iraq, I can say "but what about that other bad regime?" cuz I don't have to worry about protesting war with North Korea until later.
"The Patriot Act" - Tips N' Tricks for the Constitution. aka Bill of Rights Mod Plug-in aka Big Brother 1.0
"Bill Oreilly sucks!" - I miss Donahue. I was his number one ----- I was his fan.
"What about the War on Terror?" - I'm naive and unless I see Usama's head FedExed to me overnight, we are losing the war on terrorism. This evil man has been known to work alone.
"We can't go in without the U.N." - If we go in with a coaltion of countries there won't be any backlash, because in the Gulf War we did it right and there was no backlash or retaliation of muslims or fanatics because we were on arab soil, but we had the U.N. to back us and nothing happened. So unless we, the U.S. ,wants to be attacked by terrorists, lets not go in alone, and we'll be okay.
"Evildoers" ~~ dictators (and terrorists) we currently find fault with.
"freedoms" ~~ whichever rights we think won't get in the way of our agenda
"You're with us or against us" ~~ agree with us or be on our ass-whuppin' list

"They hate our freedoms!" - "Register at your local immigration office, get your biometric id card stamped, and start feeding data into the total information awareness act or we'll use Patriot II to strip you of your citizenship before you can say "phone call" and ship you off to a country where torture is A OK - Then we'll know where you really stand. Terrorist."
