" I got balled up about our DEAD soldiers being dragged through the streets"

So, you knew they were dead and you probably knew the people dragging them through the streets hadn't actually killed them but you still got "balled up" about it?

But you wouldn't have gotten "balled up" about seeing our "live" soldiers with leashes around their necks and being piled up in pyramids?

It's difficult to figure what ANY person or group of people would find offensive, but I think that when dealing with a group of people that has had a long time resentment against Western hegemony, we should just ASSUME that they might get "balled up" rather easily and try to take that into account when trying to make them our ideological ALLIES as the Idiot Bush has suggested.
