Thread: Isn't this what we all want?

I received this in an email:

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 THEREAFTER IT'll GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20 YEARS.

The American people are no longer going to pour 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. Bonne chance, mes amies.

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, 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 are seeing this on your computer, thank the American way,.. capitalism/ free enterprise

Right On !!

I dream of our gutless wonders in the Capitol finally standing up for and taking care of citizens needs which have been neglected for a long time. .

A clarification is in order:

NAFTA is not a treaty. It is an agreement - as in 'North American Free Trade Agreement'.

[Edit - after the fact; below should read 'Treaties do require ...]
Treaties do not require official approval of US Congress. An 'agreement' can be signed into law simply by the Executive branch (eg. a Prez) alone. Shame on you Bill Clinton! Even he, in all fairness, has made public comments that have called the enacting of NAFTA into question.
But, it's too late now. The incredible damage has already been done.

Prior to NAFTA, we had a net surplus of trade with Mexico. Within 2 years of it's implementation, we had a net deficit in trade with Mexico. To me, it isn't any more complicated than that. It has been [yet another] policy disaster imposed on the American public [workers, primarily] by elitists within the inner circles of corporate CEOs and Federal Government in DC.

agreement is to treaty what fee is to tax. They think by changing the name they can change the rules. Sad part is, because we have done nothing, they are correct.

NAFTA is ARBITRARY. The CITIZENS of the nations involved--Canada, the United States of America, and Mexico--were NOT ALLOWED to VOTE on NAFTA. Yet NAFTA has meant NOTHING but DISASTER for the AVERAGE Canadian, American, and Mexican. Perhaps the fact that NAFTA was SO BAD to BEGIN with is WHY no popular vote was permitted on it.
