Title: Dreams and ideals
Post by: Judy Harder on July 16, 2010, 09:15:16 AM

WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR ANY U.S. PRESIDENT, DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN, GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?




'My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been completed.

Since Congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete.

This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces from Iraq . This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now time to begin the reckoning.


Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is short . The United Kingdom , Spain , Bulgaria , Australia , and Poland are some of the countries listed there.

The other list contains every one not on the first list. Most of the world's nations are on that list. My press secretary will be distributing copies of both lists later this evening.

Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war. THEN EVERY YEAR THEREAFTER It'll GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20 YEARS.

The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world Hell holes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.

Need help with a famine ? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France .

In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social  problems we still have at home. On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth.

Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France or maybe China .

I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France , and Russia . Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well.

I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains to this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York.

A special note to our neighbors: Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to try not pissing us off for a change.

Mexico is also on List 2. Its president and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple thousand extra tanks and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put 'em? Yep, border security.

Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty - starting now.

We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling for oil in Alaska -which will take care of this country's oil needs for decades to come. If you're an environmentalist who opposes this decision, I refer you to List 2 above: pick a country and move there.

It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them by saying, 'darn tootin.'

Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America . It is time to eliminate homelessness in America . To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thank you guys. We owe you and we won't forget.

To the nations on List 2, a final thought : You might want to learn to speak Arabic.

God bless America .. Thank you and good night.'

If you can read this in English, thank a soldier.

Nope, I cannot agree with shredding the diplomats cars, just adds more to the landfill and produces no income. Tow them to impound, keep them  a short while and sell them to the highest bidder if the diplomat doesn't pay the fine. The fine should be large enough to cover all the expenses and paperwork involved.  That would create income for NY, the land fill is spared and a poor innocent car is saved.

Judy,  OUTSTANDING!

Jerry, how is that thuggery?  It is doing nothing more than taking care of our own country.

Diane, I would say sell the cars and use the money and give it to the soldiers killed in iraq.

hows it not thuggery? The post threatens@other countries for disagreeing with

the US.  What about the fact that NATO is in Afghanistan, Canada has been there since the beginning in Kandahar.  Like I said thuggery, how dare other countries act independent of Team America: World Police.

SDM, Some people on here don't believe in it. I'm not crazy about the abuses that happen, but then I don't know how our own ambassadors act in other countries. I'm not sure what dead soldiers are going to do with the money from the car sales either, but what do I know. 
    Some huge steel beams from the World Trade Center and going to be coming from New Jersey down I-95 through here soon. A large escort of fire equipment and police are going to meet it at the bridge and escort it until it leaves Delaware. Each state will meet it at it's borders as it heads to Florida. The pieces will be made into 9-11 monuments in Florida.
  Did anybody here  know that an American was killed in the bombing after the world cup?  Nate Hamm was from here. He went to Concord High school and UD. His brother was in a plane crash the day after the bombing. He did survive but the pilot did not.

Not hardly, when did Canada threaten the US.

Didn't really threaten Canada, just told'em not to piss us off.

Varmit, you really are a piece of work. "Don't piss us off?" Just who are you representing and where did your authority come from ? Why not gather a bunch of people who think like you and head south, very far south. Go beat up on Mexico. They have pissed off a lot of people here. Canada is a good friend and an excellent trading partner. Perhaps we should be more worried about not pissing them off!

Diane, just what thread have you been reading?  All I did was to repeat what the author said.

I always love the "America, love it or leave it" crowd.  When a republican is president, the right goes on and on about how they love america, we are so great, if you don't love it, go somewhere else.  When the demos are in control, they all hate the government, they think our country is terrible, nothing is going right. 

How about this, Obama is our president, the democrats control congress, Love it or leave it!

I'd actually like to see an independent president, and an independent congress, but I'm an American, so i can do whatever i want, regardless of how i feel.  If I wanna speak spanish, dammit I'm going to do it.  If i want to hate a group of people or a particular place, its my right to do so.  No republican, conservative, democrat, or liberal is going to tell me what i can and can't do.  Its not YOUR place.

Its not that they think our country is terrible, its not.  The Gov't, on the other hand, thats a totally different story.  Love of country does NOT mean a love of gov't.  I don't see what is so hard about that that the Left can't seem to understand.

Varmit was quoting the author of the story. Try a little reading comprehension instead of ass chewing and back biting!

Somewhere the Progressives or left have decided that We the People don't count.  Some of the Right don't think so either but not as many subscribe to Govt knows best.

The thing that gets me is how the Left refuses to look at history.  Anytime the gov't gets involved things usually go from bad to worse.

Uh, Richard Nixon? How's that for history? ;D  How about we make it WE, all the people, not just WE a certain few.
