In order to bring this back to a fun and lighthearted humorous topic, here goes:

"The peacemaker is Vladimir Putin. He is going to help us secure the chemical weapons, because if there is one thing you can trust Putin with, it's poison. " –Bill Maher

"The way it's going to work is Assad is going to turn over his chemical weapons to Russia, who will then of course sell them to China, who will repackage them as off-brand roach spray, and you can get them at the 99 cent store." –Bill Maher

"It's not that easy to go and secure all these chemical weapons. For one thing, the Syrians have been scattering stockpiles of the chemical weapons all over. They've even got some stored here in the U.S. It's called Monsanto." –Bill Maher

"If The Pres really wanted to sell us on Syria, he should have taken a page from the people selling us Siri. Pushing an iPhone and a war are a lot alike. You just say that the new one is smaller, cheaper and faster and people will buy it. Even though they've already got one and they're still paying off the previous model." –Stephen Colbert

"Crisis averted. Now Congress suspends its vote on a military strike, the U.N. secures Assad's chemical stockpile, and the Syrian people can go back to being killed with conventional methods. Everybody wins." –Stephen Colbert

...I would like to make a strong protest however.

The discussion as to whether this discussion has digressed or not, or fits into the category or not of fun and lightheartedness, or whether or not another category of discussion is needed or not, should have I think, strictly speaking, been started as another discussion (post), as such discussion digresses from the original discussion, and does not fit into the category of fun and lightheartedness.

It seems that those who are protesting are not following their own protests.

Please don’t think that I am being entirely serious.  I am trying to fit in with the category of fun and lightheartedness.  But then I have digressed from the original topic.  At least I am half right.




a good bowl of oatmeal is always good for the soul.   :)  your statements above made me laugh out loud, and it is early in the morning here and i am pretty sure all my neighbors are asleep.  i just wanted to say i appreciate the architecture of your post response causing it to fit neatly in the fun and lighthearted character of this section of the forum.
