WE CAN DREAM CAN'T WE

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 immediately and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war. THEN EVERY YEAR THERE AFTER GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20 YEARS.

The American people are no longer going to po ur money into third world Hellholes 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 , Germany , and Russia . Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bon ne chance, me z a mies.

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 peeing 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 extra thousand 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, thank a teacher. If you are reading it in English, thank a Soldier, Sailor, Airman, or a Marine

Can you just see Katie and others of her stripe going insane as they reported this, and re-played it on TV? That president might likely serve a 3rd term if he pulled this speech off.

Reminds me of the adage "teach a man to fish". We should NEVER just hand
over millions of dollars. Instead send seeds and water purification equipment
and allow them to take care of themselves.

Just like in this country, instead of a welfare check give them a welfare card.
If your hungry go to the community center, they will swipe your card and give
you a free meal to keep your energy up while you look for a job.

Would be even nicer if it happened out of principal instead of a lack of funding.

Ask not what your government can do for you. Ask how your government can go away and get out of your life

It IS too bad that of all the presidential candidates we've had the past 20 years, the ONLY one who really would be EAGER to deliver that speech is the one people on the Left and Right seem to hate equally - Ron Paul.

After viewing the multi-dimensional 'Nolan' chart, you'll never look at 'Left' and 'Right' quite the same - I recommend it:

http://www.friesian.com/quiz.htm (don't worry - it isn't a quiz; it is about a quiz)

Maybe if the news media would start framing the issues and debates in more than one 'left-right' dimension, the public would realize it isn't always a choice between what the Dems would call a fascist and what the Republicans would call a socialist, but that there are candidates like Paul who can't really be criticized using either of those perjoratives.

Smoke & mirrors perhaps? About 9% got it figured out, growing every day. Go Ron Go! Not only the man, the message.

I can only say that I would love to hear a British Prime Minister make a similar speech. But as John Wayne would say "That'll be the day"

Darn it, that sounds too negative, so I'll finish by saying "Viva le Revolution".

five nukes dropped on the five largest cities in saudi arabia, five minutes after 9-11, would have produced a different world today.
