Part one

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 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 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 everyone 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 immediately and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war.

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. Tangle 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.

To Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Yo, boys. Work out a peace deal now. Just note that Camp David is closed. Maybe all of you can go to Russia for negotiations. They have some great palaces there. Big tables, too. I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France, Germany, and Russia. Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bon chance, mes amis.

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. President Fox and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra tanks and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put em? Yep, border security. So start doing something with your oil.

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

We are tired of the one-way highway.

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. It is time to eliminate World Cup Soccer from America. To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thanks guys. We owe you and we won't forget.

To the nations on List 2, a final thought. Drop dead.

God bless America.
Thank you and good night.

If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in English,
thank a soldier.

My reply in the next post

Tonittrav....stop watching fox news it rots the brains.

About well ok 99% of that is just sheer stupidity. The only semi smart thing you accidentally said was cancel NAFTA. NAFTA is good only for America

First of all we decided to go into Iraq with out any international support on a weak case for WMD in which later the CIA noted after we invaded umm there weren't any. And you're pissed they aren't helping us? It's our fight that WE got into ALONE why should anyone help us?

Next ok the list that didn't support us...well that happens to include France, China(whom we are in deep loan troubles with to pay for your war). Russia(who recently just devised a way around our very expensive "star wars defense plan" in less then a month)India(nuclear capability)...dude heard of the BRICCS resolution? This policy idea is just suicide.

As for third world countries being hell holes and not willing to give them our support? I'm sure they would be fucking pleased with our ideas of help being tossed out. We've put at least half of these corrupt politicians in power long as they are friendly to US investors( who take land they have farmed on for generations turn them into factories and pay them less then 50 cents a day wow live is so much better now! We used to have a steady source of food and water... now we have to work for meager wages that afford us a lesser lifestyle and they've dumped chemicals in out water supplies! Live is really grand!)

BTW last time i checked for being the wealthiest post industrialized nation in the world the only nation that gave LESS in foreign aid was Italy. So don't worry we aren't really doing a lot in this department anyway.

As for social problems here...not with this current administration or maybe the ADD society we live in has already forgotten the Katrina evacuees...do you rally think they can handle a terrorist attack?

France already has it's problems with rioting and it conservative government wondering what to do with their large african immigrant population from World War 2. It isn't terrorist vs france here it's simply RICH VS POOR.

Before you head into the Israel and Palestine ordeal they're doing quite fucking well without our help. There is a slow pull out going on now as well and a legitimate palestinian government being put forth. By the way how do you happen to know what goes on in Palestine? Ever talked to a palestinian? I'm sure your response is "no i wouldn't talk to one of those terrorist rag-heads" I had the pleasure of meeting a palestinian refuse this past summer and she was one of the smartest well expressed civil and understanding woman i have had the pleasure to meet.

Again your severing of diplomatic relations with Germany, China and Russia is simply suicide. Though we've done a great job without formal declarations like yours.

Canada... have you ever met a Canadian much less visited? I Went two years ago and man what a great country. Great people and beautiful country. We could really learn from their universal health care plan. Because yea every CITIZEN is covered...and in America there's 40 million of us with out ANY health insurance and rising health care costs.

Ah Mexico...Living in Texas i have met many immigrants willing to clean toilets, build roads in the texas heat, cook and clean whatever to get by and get paid on average less then american workers. So no this is a pipe dream that is talked about Corporate Americas loves the influx of cheap, exploitive labor so any rhetoric involving border control is just that...rhetoric.

NAFTA...the one smart thing you have accidentally said. NAFTA is one of the most brazen unfair trade agreements ever put into existence. IT's not union friendly, it's exploitive, Gives unfair leverage to the rich and corrupt in south america and more people resent it in South America then The entire US population.

Again you policies are suicide and earns the US rightfully the hatred we have worldwide.Though be at ease my narrow minded friend Good OL Bush is working on EVERY request you want. I hope he dies a very agonizing painful death.

Nearly a century of helping people live decent lives world wide? More like a century of American Imperialism and capitalist conquering. you want to solve hunger, homelessness, and other social ills?

Starters increase minimum wage, decrease defense funding to half of it's current levels(even at half we'd still spend more then the nearest country, which is China btw, by double), do away with the office of homeland security, cut out corporate tax loopholes, stream line social security and the IRS. With this level of funding we could make good on education (a society is only good as it is educated which worldwide we are severely falling behind) allowing students to have higher education at least partially footed for, have a decent universal health care system in place, make it harder to outsource to other countries (this helps both us and them because it allows them to build a strong worker base and increases their living standards and same for us) While these are just a start they are viable current working solutions to our countries problems. Isolationism in this current world of globalization is either impossible to just plain stupid. It's important for us to work with our neighbors to build a better world community.

So seriously stop watching fox news get off the couch and do some real research into what's going on in the world. Your argument is weak, uneducated, suicide, and dangerous. Now if you'll excuse me i have a protest to attend and a few flags to burn.


I consider this real trouble. Nazi Germany only needed two generations? To go full blown fascism and a solution to the "jewish Problem" Replace Jewish with Terrorist(underlying islam) and what do you get? I really think this country is going to repeat history sometimes. In the worst way possible.

Umm first clue: America is a country made up of immigrants: Jewish, Irish, French, Japanese, Spanish, African American etc. etc. Give us your cold, your hunger, your poor, is what made America, America.

Now I object the word reckoning, a bit biblical and apocalyptic for my taste.

Really, the US is not Texas, it only houses one for the time being. Bush's wild west is really just a "Bush gone Wild Video" in the making, except he doesn't flash any nipple at the camera, he lets Karl do that. Once America gets over its' reality TV kick, their going to kick the hicks out.

he doesn't have WMD's. That's the same thing we had on him before we spent billions on the war,and had any American Troops killed. Now we have had American's killed, spent billions of dollars on the war and still Saddam has no WMD's. Go figure.

What makes this idiot think any other country on the planet will want our help again after the disgraceful way we have failed the people of the Gulf Coast??

Mexican Navy Assets were in NOLA? What about Mexican Army units in San Anton?

Care to tell this idiot that there were German units, and Canadian rescue crews in NOLA...

Like all idiots he is fully unaware of just how not first world we seem right at the moment, and how little of a supoerpower we remain
