Proposed Presendential Speech

This ought to get y'all going. This is reportedly "PROPOSED", not real. Too bad Plywoody is out of town, he'd lay an egg!<br /><br />Just think-what if?<br /><br />Presidential Speech<br /><br />What follows is the text of a speech someone thinks President Bush should give on July 4, 2003. The source of this material remains unidentified.<br /><br />My fellow Americans:<br /><br />As you all know, the defeat of Iraq's regime has been completed. The discovery and destruction of all weapons of mass destruction have been covered thoroughly in the press. A new Iraqi government has been established and appears to be stable.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />It is now time to begin the reckoning.<br /><br />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, and Poland are some of the countries listed there.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world hellholes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.<br /><br />Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France.<br /><br />In the out years, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home.<br /><br />I am ordering the immediate withdrawal of all US forces from Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and all other Middle Eastern nations. Leave us alone. Solve your own damn problems. Need help? Call Germany.<br /><br />On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you down and eliminate you and all your relatives from the face of the earth. Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France, or maybe China.<br /><br />Regarding the nation of Israel, I have this to say. It seems like everybody has forgotten what happened to European Jewry during the 1930s and World War II. Our nation will never permit the destruction of Israel. No way, Jose. Nevertheless, to Israel and the Palestinian Authority. Yo, boys. Yank yer heads outta rectal defilade and work out a peace deal. 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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />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 give a damn 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.<br /><br />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, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty---starting now.<br /><br />It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of xenophobia. My response is simple and direct: if you can play that word in Scrabble, do it as soon as your turn comes round. 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.<br /><br />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.<br /><br />We will develop energy independence. We will restructure our nation for its isolationist destiny.<br /><br />I will be sending legislation to Congress tomorrow proposing the first actions that august body should take as we move in a new direction.<br /><br />Finally, I have decided not to run for a second term of office. The First Lady and I will retire to our Texas ranch and have some fun. Laura and I have been talking about takin' one of those cruises up to Alaska. Personally, I couldn't care less who gets elected in 2004. Throw a little fascism into the mix and elect Senator Clinton. She can appoint the editorial board of the New York Times to her Cabinet.<br /><br />To the nations on List 2, a final thought. Drop dead.<br /><br />To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thanks guys. We owe you.<br /><br />God bless America.<br /><br />Thank you and good night.<br /><br />AND- - -<br /><br />This is the best plan I've seen yet. Well worth the read! <br /><br />Here's the new plan:<br /><br />1) The U.S. will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their affairs, past and present. You know ~ Hitler, Mussolini and the rest of them good old boys'. We will never "interfere" again. <br /><br />2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with Germany, South Korea, and the Philippines. They don't want us there. We would station troops at our borders. No more sneaking through holes in the fence. <br /><br />3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of who or where they are. France would welcome them. <br /><br />4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 days unless given a special permit. No one from a terrorist nation would be allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it yourself - don't hide here. Asylum would not ever be available to anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers. <br /><br />5) No "students" over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they don't attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back home baby. <br /><br />6) The US will make a strong effort to become self sufficient energy wise. This will include developing non polluting sources of energy but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while. <br /><br />7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for their oil. If they don't like it, we go someplace else. <br /><br />8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will not "interfere". They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides' most of what we give them is stolen or given to the army. The people who need it most get very little, if any, anyway. <br /><br />9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an island some place. We don't need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, it would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens. <br /><br />10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one can call us "Ugly Americans" any longer. Now, isn't that a winner of a plan

A perfect plan, but it will never happen.<br /><br />I say make a who's next list and go for it.<br />Don't babysit them or give them a chance to straighten up.<br /><br />They have already had time for that.

Y'all are probably right-it'll never happen. <br /><br />But, what if?<br /><br />If any Prez, could "pull it off", it would be "W". <br /><br />Straight talker-no BS.

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

Got an idea. What if we just email the darn thing to GW and tell him to send it to all the countries on the s*it list with a note saying "This is going to be my July 4th speech. Read it and weep." Wonder what kind of stir that would make? :D :D :D

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

BTW, i'm kinda glad PW is out <br /><br />well, actually very content to miss the diatribe of overtly anti-establishmentarism... hehehe neat, i haven't seen that word since the 70's :p <br />(you know i love words, it just popped up in my mind)<br /><br />i think prez gwb would gofer the stuff you listed, just to please the usa, but i'm sure congress/house have too many special interest groups/$$$$ to depend on, to let it happen... ;)

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

Here's the reply I got after sending him a e-mail. :D <br /><br />Thank you for emailing President Bush. Your ideas and comments are very<br />important to him.<br /><br />For up-to-date information about the President and his policies, please check<br />the White House web site at www.whitehouse.gov.<br /><br />Unfortunately, because of the large volume of email received, the President<br />cannot personally respond to each message. However, the White House staff<br />considers and reports citizen ideas and concerns.<br /><br />Again, thank you for your email. Your interest in the work of President Bush<br />and his administration is appreciated.<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />The White House Office of E-Correspondence<br />_________________________

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

Good idea. The only thing I would add is to move the UN headquarters out of the US. This would be one of the worst things you could do to most of the delegates if they actually had to go back to living where they came from. They love living in the US, even while they're bad-mouthing it.

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

Wow, a winter off the water is not good for you guys! :eek: <br /><br />Dubya wouldn't touch that speech with a ten foot pole. He's already back peddling, warming us to the idea there aren't any WMDs in Iraq. No question Saddam was a bad dude, but a stable Iraq government by July 4 is wishful thinking. Stopping foreign aid to countries that didn't support a war we supposedly started to eliminate WMDs (remember 1441?) is akin to throwing law abiding citizens in jail for not breaking the law. You're dreamin' if you think Dubya is gonna redirect any money toward anyone in the country except his corporate buddies. An isolationist destiny??? Why do the words "North Korea" come to mind? I like the part about Dubya not running for a second term. He and his cronies have done enough damage. And, by the way, you'd better explain the part about throwing illegal aliens out to the family of Lance Cpl. Jose Antonio Gutierrez who died as a US Marine in Iraq. He entered the country illegally. Drilling in ANWR? Won't make a drop in our energy dependence bucket. Hybrid vehicles might have, until Dubya pulled the plug. By the way, how do we become isolationist and "go someplace else" for our oil?<br /><br />Yikes!!! You guys better stick to boatin' and fishin' and stay out of the foreign and domestic policy business. ;)

I still say makes a list and start with Syria, North Korea, just take your pick.<br /><br />I would go with Syria first since we already have troops there. :D <br /><br />I would also send the Dixie Chicks over there strapped on the front of an A1 Abrams with Bulls eyes painted on them.<br /><br />That is if you could find a spot that was not already written on. :eek: <br /><br />If you don't support our President and/or troops, then you are on the list also.

blacksmoke, how did gwb pull the plug on hybrid vehicles?<br /><br />btw, i don't think anyone took the original post as a serious matter. i didn't expect us to come up with new policy here.<br /><br />it seems you don't think much of our current president, eh?

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

Spinner, Sounds like you don't think every American is entitled to free speech. :eek: <br /><br />ebb, Dubya cancelled hybrid development funding and redirected toward hydrogen. I was just about done with my gas/electric bowrider, too. ;)

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

I'm all for free speech, but you cross the line when you de-grade the President, who ever it is.<br /><br />I see the DC's are on tv now asking for forgiveness because it is costing them so much.<br /><br />They did the open mouth, insert foot deal and it got them where it hurts. The pocket book.<br /><br />If you de-grade the President, then you need to be somewhere else besides America. Freedom of speech or not.<br /><br />Over the years there has been things done by Presidents that I did not like, but have stood behind their decisions, good or bad.<br /><br />This freedom of speech deal has got way out of hand and it really gets to me when these people that would run the other way to keep from fighting to keep us free, run their mouth about how it is so bad what we are doing and on and on and on.<br /><br />If you people don't like it, then leave and go to NK, it won't be long now.

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

I'm sorry guys and gals.<br /><br />Getting way off topic here.<br /><br />It justs gets to me when all someone can say is something about freedom of speech.<br /><br />They don't take in consideration, their freedom.<br /><br />OK, I'm done.

Re: Proposed Presendential Speech

I think you cross the line when you propose killing someone for expressing their opinion. But, hey, we get to respectfully differ in an open forum - not a bad deal. Have a great weekend! :cool:
