Wouldn't It Be Great............?

[Teresa Heilevang]

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. 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 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 tank 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. 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. They care.

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: You might want to learn to speak Arabic.

God bless America. Thank you and good night.

How about add something like

"And to the "news" organizations is the country.  Treason is against the law and will be enforced so next time you give away classified info or refuse to name your terrorist contacts you will be tried and HUNG!

[demp35744]

I quit watching the news along time ago. Too much liberal influence. Hollywood needs the same lack of attention.

Marshal'ette, first you argue that a 3rd party or write in vote is a waste, then you follow the Ron Paul platform point by point. What'cha gonna do??  Mac.

[Teresa Heilevang]

I have massages to do this morning but I DO have an answer for this.. ( Like THAT should surprise you) LOL

[Hazcat]

Hey Mashal'ette, as long as your doing massages I have this ache in my shoulder...

[DDMac]

Hazcat, you are suffering from too much sunshine!! 40&drizzle here. Mac.

Marshal'ette, first you argue that a 3rd party or write in vote is a waste, then you follow the Ron Paul platform point by point. What'cha gonna do??  Mac.

You know?? I am sooooo frustrated! And I will start to ramble I am sure before this post is done..but I mean .. I read and I read and I do research on candidates and just about the time I think I 'might' have found one that 'might' work.. Splat! He turns out to be dog poo. ( I know I said shit in another thread and I would really like to say all kinds of unlady-like things , but I'll try not to) 

Ok... At  first I really thought Ron Paul was kind of "out there"..so I dismissed him.
 And when Fred come on the scene, I threw all my hope eggs into his basket. Well, when I realized that he was going down the shi.... er.. ahhh toilet.. I thought .. "Ok.. Huckabee.. ..even though I knew he had as much backbone on crime and illegal immigration as a slug. But as hard as I tried, I couldn't get past that.. even if his wife does CC.
So that left plastic haired daddy's rich boy Mitt. Nope.. never!
And we have Rudy.. Lord, he is a silver tongued snake . Nope again.
 Then there is McCain.. who might look like he is on our side.. but all the while he's shaking our hands , he's seems to be kissing a Democrats ass. ( Can't have both parties loving you John)
 
So .. then we have the 3rd Party Libertarians.
 Unlike liberals or conservatives, Libertarians seem to advocate a high degree of both personal and economic liberty. Kind of like a group of people with a "live and let live" mentality and a balanced checkbook too.
Which in my frame of mind, is a Perfect structure for a President's format.

But .. their numbers are small. That is why they are 3rd party . And yesss I know that if more of us registered there, the numbers would be greater. ( As a matter of fact, I used to be registered as one ) And I am not against sending a message or even voting in that direction, IF I thought that it would keep Hillary out of office.  I'm extremely concerned about Hillary.. A whole lot more than I am Obama..
Why? Because I think that she/they/Clintons are the most dangerous people to have back in the White House. If that happens..
We'll have them ( and we WILL have Bill and Hillary both) and we have a democratic congress..
Score :
 3 for them.. 0 for us.

So actually since I don't discount that the 3rd party is probably the best way for the country and the best way to send a statement
 ( if anyone up there in Washington actually cares) I still think it's a Pollyanna fantasy to think that in THIS election it will amount to a squirt of goat pi..........( dang it.. sorry ) that it will matter.

 I actually have been listening and reading everything I can get my hands on about Ron Paul.. and I think.. believe it or not... that is who I would really like to support. I know in the beginning, I thought he was talking wild.. but the more I find out, the more I think he is right on the mark!
At least he is on the Republican ballot and "Might" have a chance. ( slim I know) But even then I am still in a state of confusion.

You know, if so much wasn't at stake, I would like to tell them all to go to hell and I wouldn't vote at all.. and I would wash my hands of the whole corrupt scene.. THAT'S how upset and disillusioned I am. I'm wiped out and worn slick of all of it actually. I'm sick of hearing about it on TV..I'm sick of it being in every newspaper.. and I'm sick of every conversation where ever you go , it is the same old debate. But do I keep my mouth shut? ((We all know the answer to that one  )

My granddad used to say? .... " To try to sort through politicians is like sitting in a hog lot swatting flies. You'll get a few, but they just keep coming back."

What to do?  I don't know. I really and truly don't know. And I know you all don't know either. We all arel just frantically trying to figure out SOMETHING that will work.

Maybe there is no answer that's right. And maybe in the long run it just won't matter. The corruptness and dishonestly has been festering and working a LONG LONG time before the Bush's or Clinton's or the Kennedy's were around.

Everyone will do, in the long run, what their conscience  them to do when they walk into the voting booth. What happens will happen, and after that.. we deal with what we will all have to deal with.

((I know that this was scattered.. but I was honest with you ..and being frustrated tends to get me this way. ))

 While I am on a ramble.. I really want to say this to all of you great guys..

 Thanks for making me feel a part of your group here. You know, I can film and  edit the gun video's and do the text work etc in Down Range.. But I can't talk ..intelligently ...about different guns &  calibers or all the different kinds of bullets and ammo that you all talk.. but I do read it all and I do silently learn by eavesdropping on your conversations. So I guess I just wanted you to know that I feel very very comfortable with you all , and I'm glad you are honest and just act yourselves around me.
 I appreciate you putting up with me and bringing me into your campsite and allowing me to join in.. even though half the time you all know I am totally full of sh.............
(sighhhhh... I'm gonna HAVE to do something about this mouth of mine)

My goodness, thy cup of angst runneth over!
No matter what our differences we can all agree that this is a crappy choice already. Having said that, chin up! because it's really not much worse than any choices we've had in the last several elections. SO. We can worry, donate, fight, do whatever, and we'll end up with someone we don't like anyway, so WE NEED TO GET TOGETHER. Whomever is voted in needs to be beat like a rented mule! No quarter! They get hammered until they repeat our slogans!
That's the only way. You don't get to pick a winner, so make the winner your bitch. (apologies to all the female dogs out there)

Mac.. I guess you are right.. After I read my origianl post again.. It does seem to be Ron Paul from point to point.. Just received this from a friend.. I'm sure most of you have already heard it or read it, but I'll post it anyway. I'd like to hear some comments. He sounds pretty good to me actually.

I am right now.. calm and neutral.. Of course I have my snuggly robe on and my fuzzy slippers and I have some hot tea with a shot of cream and a shot of rum..uuummmmmmm.. just what a woman on a political "out of control' platform needs.. 
 Come to think of it... Marshal suggested the rum..... wonder why?!     LOL LOL
