I thought this was funny
If General George Patton were alive and President of the USA,this would 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
>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 cut taxes and solve
>some local problems.
>
>On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. ***** 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 of
>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.
