I thought we were fighting them over there so we wouldn't have to fight them here.

LosinMySenses		2008-10-10 10:33:35 PM

Yes, let's send Iraq our roaches, but why stop there..give them fire ants and rattlesnakes see how Iraq likes it

sckonkh		2008-10-10 11:56:13 PM

But but the surge did work.

Subby hates america and might be one of dem' muslims

I, for one, welcome our new foreign roach overlords.

Subby FAIL! -1

Actual headline: Cockroaches hitch ride into US with troops

Subby might want to take note of how that headline says the roaches are comming here, not going there.

Hey Subtard, I know a few dozen Marines that would like to have a word with you. Killing several hundred bad guys then coming home and seeing morons like you claim they can't win something kinda chaps their hides.

dogboy360		2008-10-11 12:11:26 AM

Had a pet roach while in FL, that thought Raid was underarm spray.

Nice reading comprehension skills there, Tardmitter.

skinink		2008-10-11 12:18:36 AM

Just send the cockroaches from Allston, Mass to fight the invasion. Those roaches are so big, they have to wear commercial plates.

rindeee		2008-10-11 12:21:39 AM

Be there. Fought 'them' (not the roaches). Never lost. F' you, subby.

In your haste, subtard, to showcase your poor reading comprehension and willingness to pull a tired meme out of your ass, you have succeeded brilliantly.

Fark that. Thoughts of those bastards keep me up at night...seriously. I'm currently staying in a convention center in Texas for training and I saw one of those farkers on my way to class one day. Scared the hell out of me cuz I haven't seen of those since I lived in South Carolina (where I was never more than a few steps away from a can of Raid). It also didn't help that I had just taken my morning vicodin and was out of it. I now lay awake knowing it's watching me...waiting for me to fall asleep so it can crawl across my face and in my hair while I'm dreaming. Thank you for the nightmares.

So I guess it's true what National Lampoon said about Keith: Sometimes the truly frightening thing about heroin is that it doesn't kill.

gtomako		2008-10-11 12:57:36 AM

How can you tell that things are going great in Iraq?

Absolutely no news about it on the network evening news shows.

Gyrfalcon		2008-10-11 01:15:30 AM

LosinMySenses: Yes, let's send Iraq our roaches, but why stop there..give them fire ants and rattlesnakes see how Iraq likes it

It would only be a matter of time before they converted them to Islam and we'd be dealing with suicide fire ants and IED's made of rattlesnakes.

Look at all these roaches, just buggin me every day, I just need some time, some time to get away from, from all these roaches....

xcracer		2008-10-11 01:58:27 AM

You know I saw the headline and I thought funny ha ha. But when I clicked on it I felt kind of sad. Really does anyone win a war? I'm sure there are a lot of people who will say "well yeah we lost Vietnam and we don't want the same thing to happen in Iraq". The truth is that America has only one true industry which is the Industrial Military Complex. We have already screwed trade, and outsourcing jobs killed the economy long ago. This country needs help.

Thought I'd let the submitter know what an ass he is, but many of you have already taken care of that quite nicely. Strange you never see all the flaming libs comment on something like this.

Seems like it's revenge for the Camel Spider that terrorised that returning soldier's home in the UK.

Oh wait, that was Afghanistan. Never mind.

We're here, we're just fighting on the front-lines in the war on roaches... by smokin' them.

otisskin		2008-10-11 02:49:54 AM

I have the huge American cockroaches that fly around in my room, and then at me. They fly towards the closest moving object. I hate them. But it is always cool to see one (or hear one) so drunk he cant get out of an empty beer can. STOMP

"Now the fast-breeding cockroaches"

I read that as breast-feeding cockroaches.

Do not blame the soldiers. Those wars are being fought by the best the US has to offer. It's the shoddy planned wars started by the worst the US has to offer, the parasites in power.

Now tell EmmaLou that once a cockroach crawls into your ear, they can't crawl out. They don't know how to go backwards.

When Bush was told cockroaches from Turkistan were invading the US, he decided to invade Iran.

Winning what? The war? No you lost that about 4 years ago.
The surge? Google the 'Awakening' groups. They are the only reason the surge worked. And in another stroke of genius (Iraqi this time) they were, I think, disbanded last Thursday.

I am pretty sure that Iraq is a lot tamer than it was 4 years ago. It is pretty common knowledge among my peers that there is nothing really left to fight there. We all want to be in afghanistan where there is actual combat going on.

/but sure you keep reading your articles, I will continue to listen to first hand knowledge of people who have recently returned.

How do you know so much? I wish I could be you.

Moran. You can root against the military, but do it from the safety of your dark basement.
