If you're not with us, you're with Him

One is a megalomanic warmonger who is endangering world peace. He has his finger on the button of nuclear weapons and is infringing the civil rights of his people - most of whom didn't vote for him.
The other is Saddam Hussein

No need to apologise, my post was fairly ranty itself ;-)

I think the thing I was really taking issue with is that the attitude has gone beyond If you're not with Us, you're against Us - which would allow you to be against both "Us" (the US) and "Him" (Saddam) - with the attitude shown on the front pages of at least two tabloids yesterday: If you're not with Us, you're with Him - leaving no room for a middle ground of any sort.

Of course, the really daft thing about the latter view is that that would make the Americans "With Hitler" for the early part of World War II...

Hmmm. I don't have any desire to be with George Bush at the moment, he gets on my nerves. Equally though, I don't want to be up against him either, that would be sick and pervy and I'm sure he has minging breath.

I'll settle for being with
[Error: Irreparable invalid markup ('<ljuser="queerasjohn">') in entry. Owner must fix manually. Raw contents below.]

I'll settle for being with <ljuser="queerasjohn">, though not in any untoward sense you understand.

Instead of starting up a whole new island, why don't you guys just come to the one John set up last week in his livejournal:
