From SI's frontpage story on Lance (in a section where they discuss the tensions between the US and France and how it affected him): "Never mind that Armstrong opposed the war too. ('There's a lot of bad guys out there running small bad countries," he says. "Why go and get them?')"
Looks like that moron Sheryl Crow is having a negative influence on Armstrong.
How many of 'em Lance were firing missiles at our pilots on a routine basis?
Heh, well, its a looooooooong bike ride through France. I guess Lance figures it's better to have people cheering you rather than pelting you with rotten produce.
Now if he would participate in American bike races instead of the Tour Du France (do we have any? If not, let's make a Coast-To-Coaster.), he would be free to say "Hey you french whiners, shaddap!"
I guess his cancer of the cajones finally spread to his brain!
He can't help it. He's been eating too much Crow.
Anyone wbo doesn't get the news that Iraq and Al-Queda were connected, conveniently forgets that Hussein was running terrorist training camps, and hadn't heard Putin's admission that the Russian intelligence service was telling Bush that Iraq was planning U.S. attackes, might well come to the conclusion that we should have left Iraq alone.
We need to get the word out!
Lance gets big doses of CNN, BBC, and MSNBC whenever he travels in Europe. I can tell you first hand that it is hard to get straight news over there. One of the only English dailies is the Herald Tribune. It's also quite slanted.
BTW, I always love this argument that because you haven't nailed all of the bad guys, you shouldn't nail any of the bad guys. If that standard had been applied to FDR, we would have either had a choice of fighting Japan, Germany and the Soviet Union all at once or not fighting any of them at all. Obviously, only someone who wants to commit slow suicide thinks like that.
There's a race called the Tour of Georgia that Lance actually participated in this year.
Spending a lot of time in France must affect your thinking.
Little-Boy Armstrong's ex-wife doesn't realize how big a favor he's done her.
Too bad, I thought he was a W supporter. Nevertheless, I will be cheering him on next week. Go Lance!
I hope he takes a spill off his bike, just like Kerry...okay Bush too, but Bush's tumble was so much cuter I'm sure.
I was in France a while last year eating their snails and stuff...after aw hile you start acting like Pepe La Pew....I escaped soon enough, but it looks like Lance has fallen victim to 'em.
How many of them attacked their neighbors? (Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, & Isreal) All within the last 15 years.
How many of these bad guys running small bad countries killed
at least one million Iraqis? (this is an estimate before the mass graves were uncovered.)
And how many of these bad guys killed better than 300,000 Iranians, & 2000 Kuwaitis in the late 1980's and early 1990's?
hmm...actually, i think the cancer actually DID spread to his brain...
but hey, he can say what he want, and i'll just edit out what i don't wanna hear, haha...cause honestly, that guy's a huge inspiration and i've got to give him the respect he deserves.
Additionally, Cliton put Iraq on the State Department"s list of Cuntries that sponsor terror for 6 straight years so why is there a problem with attacking a terrorist sponsoring country during a WAR ON TERROR?
In fact, the notion isn't worth a grin.
Does anyone find it curious that someone who HAS succeeded by dint of his own efforts now begins espousing socialism? There's no way that that twit from Poplar Bluff, MO is THAT good in the sack.
Who cares and why are we supposed to be surprised? Look at least half of this nation can't wait for its demise.
Has anyone seen his commercials lately? I think he believes he is known by sight to his target audience. I'd think again if I were Lance.
