Those what chants, IMO killed the heat on the promo.

The other problem is that Hassan will be a huuuuuuuuuuuge babyface in Canada. Why? Because he tells the truth, and since we're not gullible like you people in the red states, and scared to stand up for something, like the blue states, we'll actually cheer him.

I mean what hes saying is actually true, but in America he'll be the typical "I have a different opinion than the people who mix the kool-aid, so I have to get booed".

The funniest line was Foley saying that some soldier lost a limb in Iraq so Americans could have freedom of speech. I was laughing my ass off. Not because a guy lost a limb (I think thats very sad), but the theory that somehow the war in Iraq is ensuring American freedoms is just pathetic. Seriously anyone who actually believes that, well you need help.
My parents were over on Wednesday night (like they are every second Wednesday), which is when RAW airs. Since it's dayligth saving time here, RAW starts earlier, so I have it on, and I told my dad about the Foley/Hassan thing (because he's a politics buff), and he likes Foley.

We were watching it and my dad started off disgusted by the segment. When Hassan came out he goes "This is becomming an anti-Arab thing now."m but at the end of the promo when Muhammad was saying he won't fight a man he doesn't respect, my dad was damn-nearing marking out. I find it easy to believe Hassan will be cheered for all the right reasons.

Why is a man like Hassan saying this war on Iraq has claimed more victims than the American soldiers and Arab-Americans who are now not as free as they were before 9/11. It's controversal, but my father was more concerned about Mick Foley than Muhammad Hassan. Hassan spoke about a true fact that is plagueing American society, and if Americans really want to try and pretend it is bullshit, then that makes them look bad from where I sit.

What I hope for is one day Jerry Lawler to just tell JR to shutup during his "No respect fro America." rants when Hassan is done. Lawler telling JR to shutup because Hassan is right would really make me respect Jerry Lawler again.
