Lean: Slightly Conservative Gender:  Awards: | Ambushed Whilst minding my own business and torturing those who held different opinions than my own when I first got to debatepolitics.com in the summer of 2005 (surely I’ve matured?), I was challenged by a liberal do-gooder, named Kelzie, about Iraq. Having argued the issue from different angles (blowing off and avoiding the WMD crap), Kelzie recognized that I was too scary to talk with and thusly avoided threads where I was present. Over time, Kelzie enjoyed such trivial moments of victory such as when she caught me erroneously stating that "America doesn’t care about Africa because there is no oil in Africa." Of course there is oil, but regardless of my meaning, members launched a parade in Kelzie’s honor when she showed us all that Africa does indeed possess oil. I remember it well - the birds sored high in the sky, the ticker tape was overwhelming, and life had new meaning for many.
Then came the summer of 2006. Debatepolitics.com held a convention in south North Carolina of which only four members ultimately attended. I held an interest in her (purely physical) before this trip, but discovered an opportunity when I met her face to face. With Kelzie having special Mod powers for maintenance issues and such, I saw my chance to seize power. If I could just lure Kelzie’s special Mod powers under my influence, I could eventually make a play towards Vauge’s throne and rule the world (…er…...I mean…debatepolitics.com. -Keep it together). First I had to lure her away from Colorado and from enlisting in the Navy. Well, we all know that in a fight between the Navy and the Marines, the Marines win so that was easy. She agreed to visit me in Virginia. After promising her that I would stop making public bomb threats in Best Buys for messing up my orders, getting into fights in Targets, and stop wishing war on everyone, she agreed to stay. My plan was coming into focus.
Then came the summer of 2007. After breaking up with me and then getting back with me two week later (purely physical), I received orders back to Twenty-nine Palms, California. I executed them in the fall and Kelzie followed me shortly after before Thanksgiving. After making her move from two states to be with me, my plan to rule the world (sigh……I mean site) was clearly coming into focus.
I would like to say that my ambush upon Kelzie was perfect, but let’s look at the facts here….
1) I later discovered that Kelzie engineered the whole convention in 2006 around meeting me.
2) When I get angry in public, Kelzie gives me a look, rubs my nose, and reminds me that civilians are people too.
3) I still have no more power on debatepolitics.com than I did before I met Kelzie.
Bottom line: In March 2008, I married a liberal who makes me eat my nasty vegetables, she sooths my temper, and word has it that we are getting a French Poodle. That’s right….I said French.
So who ambushed who? Either way, I like to think the Marines still won.
Kelzie and I are married.

Kelzie will be played by Kate Beckinsale....
And due to contractual conflicts with Matt Damon, all love scenes will use Salma Hayek as a stunt double for GySgts role.....
