Maybe you actually did read the poem and are referring to this part:
Take up the White Man’s burden—
And reap his old reward:
The blame of those ye better
The hate of those ye guard—
The cry of hosts ye humour
(Ah slowly) to the light:
"Why brought ye us from bondage,
“Our loved Egyptian night?”
If you do not understand the meaning I can translate it into 6th grade public school language for you.
All I need is the Iraqi citizenry to be free and have a future.
Why?
We do not go for profit, we go at a cost. We do not rule or exploit, we throw down sadists.
Gee....and all this time I thought we were there to prevent "the smoking gun from being a mushroom cloud over NYC".
I spit on your comparison.
When you grow up and can mind your manners you are invited to come back and converse with the adults.
So, how adult is it to read something that has been retracted and then proceed to slam someone for something that they have already apoligized for?
I will try to rise above my sixth grade comprehension for moment. Curious that you take such offense to my using the word *spit* and then proceed to call me an idiot. It's obvious I never did anything of the sort to you, so I am amused.
Perhaps my dumb self does not know how to apoligize correctly. No, I re-read it. I apoligized. I will not call you dumb but I WILL spit on your last post to me. So to spit on your posts is immature so you will call me a sixth grader.
Seriously, you can see the irony in this, can't you?
Arioch out.
