Subject: Amen To This!!!!


WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR GEORGE W. BUSH OR JOHN KERRY GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?........... IT SURE WOULD!

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
worlds 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.

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 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.

It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own
citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them be 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.

( Please forward this to at least ten friends and see what happens!
Let's get this to every USA computer!)

If life could be that simple it would be nice ,but it is not.

The people of the world are like many of us all they want is to feed and house their family, have their children be healthy and happy and be more educated and more prosperious than they were. There are a few people in every civilization that are being driven by their ego, greed, revenge, religious beliefs to name a few. When they get in power this becomes a problem.
We can now travel to almost any place in the world quicker now than any one could imagine back 100 years ago, so this makes the world a smaller place. We need to pay attention to what is happening and be active in as many places we can. We must not forget that many countries who are not with us on a one mission may be with us on the next, or have been with us in a past mission.
Remember that we are the envy of the world and we did not become that way by not sharing our thoughts and power with our neighbors of the world.
We tried to isolate ourselves in World War One and it did not work. eventually one side or another will force us to make a choice, because of who we are.
The Mexican border has been a problem for many years, Poncho Villa would cross into Arizona , and New Mexico in the early 1900's, so this is nothing new. Some Mexican property owners believe we illegally seized their land after the Mexican American War in the 1800's.
The money we send foreign countries is small compared to the cost of
having to send troops or having problems disrupt our way of life that we are use to.

Many pleasant thoughts with FR8 SHAKER's entry; however, Gotta go along with ACE.

Isolationism is not the protocol that made The USA what we are today; were we to adopt that manner of being, we'd be no better off than all of the lesser fortunate.
