If General George Patton
were alive and President of the USA, this would probably
be his Fireside Speech:
My
fellow Americans:
As you all know, the defeat of Iraq's
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, Norway 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 cut taxes and solve some local problems.
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.
To Israel and the Palestinian Authority.
You, 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'm 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 tickets
to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded
and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty pertains
to this. Pay your 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 going 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 have a couple extra tank
and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I'm
gonna 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.
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 cut taxes here because
we will not be spending on other peoples problems.
To the nations on List 1, a final thought.
Thanks guys. We owe you. To the nations on List 2, a
final thought. Drop dead. God bless America.
Thank you and good night.
Special
thanks to Noah for sending me this gem... |
