BUSH'S SPEECH

[kate31701]

You can't snopes this because it is a satire, much like Saturday Night Live (you know that's not fact, right?).  This satire reflects how I feel, and it makes me sad because if the polls aren't biased, apparently the majority of people are stupid. 

I still think character is important in a leader, rich people are already in a higher tax bracket than poor people and still supply jobs, we all have the same opportunities, some just get lucky and some not, and we all should be accountable for our actions. 

There are 100 Senators, 435 congressmen, and 9 Supreme Court Justices that we have elected and have appointed to run this country in a fair & honorable manner with the president as the leader.  If that has not been done, then they have not done the job they were entrusted to do and to blame it on one person is not being accountable for their own actions.  If they disagree so strongly with what the leader has done, then they should have stood their ground. 

This is why character matters.  Being a good debater, eloquent speaker and promising the world does not give you character.  Experience, compassion, conviction and conscience does.  If you know someone that is undecided in this election, maybe you should explain why you put your trust in a person with character. 

Now the Satire: 

BUSH'S RESIGNATION SPEECH

The following 'speech' was written recently by an ordinary Maine-iac [a resident of the People's Republic of Maine ]. While satirical in nature, all satire must have a basis in fact to be effective.

This is an excellent piece by a person who does not write for a living. The speech George W. Bush might give:


Normally, I start these things out by saying 'My Fellow Americans.' Not doing it this time.
If the polls are any indication, I don't know who more than half of you are anymore.

I do know something terrible has happened, and that you're really not fellow Americans any longer.I'll cut right to the chase here: I quit. Now before anyone gets all in a lather about me quitting to avoid impeachment, or to avoid prosecution or something, let me assure you:

There's been no breaking of laws or impeachable offenses in this office.
The reason I'm quitting is simple. I'm fed up with you people.
I'm fed up because you have no understanding of what's really going on in the world.
Or of what's going on in this once-great nation of ours.

And the majority of you are too damned lazy to do your homework and figure it out.Let's start local. You've been sold a bill of goods by politicians and the news media.

Meanwhile, all you can do is whine about gas prices, and most of you are too damn stupid to realize that gas prices are high because there's increased demand in other parts of the world, and because a small handful of noisy idiots are more worried about polar bears and beachfront property than your economic security.We face real threats in the world. Don't give me this 'blood for oil' thing. If I were trading blood for oil I would've already seized Iraq 's oil fields and let the rest of the country go to hell. And don't give me this 'Bush Lied...People Died' crap either. If I were the liar you morons take me for, I could've easily had chemical weapons planted in Iraq so they could be 'discovered.' Instead, I owned up to the fact that the intelligence was faulty.

Let me remind you that the rest of the world thought Saddam had the goods, same as me. Let me also remind you that regime change in Iraq was official US policy before I came into office.

Some guy named ' Clinton ' established that policy. Bet you didn't know that, did you? Now some of you morons want to be led by a junior senator with no understanding of foreign policy or economics, and this nitwit says we should attack Pakistan , a nuclear ally. And then he wants to go to Iran and make peace with a terrorist who says he's going to destroy us. While he's doing that, he wants to give Iraq to al Qaeda, Afghanistan to the Taliban, Israel to the Palestinians, and your money to the IRS so the government can give welfare to illegal aliens, who he will make into citizens, so they can vote to re-elect him. He also thinks it's okay for Iran to have nuclear weapons, and we should stop our foreign aid to Israel . Did you sleep through high school?You idiots need to understand that we face a unique enemy. Back during the cold war, there were two major competing political and economic models squaring off. We won that war, but we did so because fundamentally, the Communists wanted to survive, just as we do. We were simply able to out spend and out-tech them.

That's not the case this time. The soldiers of our new enemy don't care if they survive. In fact, they want to die.

That'd be fine, as long as they weren't also committed to taking as many of you with them as they can.

But they are.. They want to kill you, and the bastards are all over the globe.You should be grateful that they haven't gotten any more of us here in the United States since September 11. But you're not. That's because you've got no idea how hard a small number of intelligence, military, law enforcement, and homeland security people have worked to make sure of that. When this whole mess started, I warned you that this would be a long and difficult fight. I'm disappointed how many of you people think a long and difficult fight amounts to a single season of 'Survivor.'


Instead, you've grown impatient. You're incapable of seeing things through the long lens of history, the way our enemies do. You think that wars should last a few months, a few years, tops.Making matters worse, you actively support those who help the enemy.

Every time you buy the New York Times, every time you send a donation to a cut-and-run Democrat's political campaign, well, dang it, you might just as well Fed Ex a grenade launcher to a Jihadist. It amounts to the same thing.In this day and age, it's easy enough to find the truth. It's all over the Internet It just isn't on the pages of the New York Times, USA Today, or on NBC News. But even if it were, I doubt you'd be any smarter.

Most of you would rather watch American Idol or Dancing with Stars.I could say more about your expectations that the government will always be there to bail you out, even if you're too stupid to leave a city that's below sea level and has a hurricane approaching.

I could say more about your insane belief that government, not your own wallet, is where the money comes from.

But I've come to the conclusion that were I to do so, it would sail right over your heads.So I quit. I'm going back to Crawford. I've got an energy-efficient house down there (Al Gore could only dream) and the capability to be fully self-sufficient for years. No one ever heard of Crawford before I got elected, and as soon as I'm done here pretty much no one will ever hear of it again.

Maybe I'll be lucky enough to die of old age before the last pillars of America fall.

Oh, and by the way, Cheney's quitting too. That means Pelosi is your new President. You asked for it.

Watch what she does carefully, because I still have a glimmer of hope that there are just enough of you remaining who are smart enough to turn this thing around in 2008.

So that's it.

God bless what's left of America .

Some of you know what I mean.

The rest of you, kiss off.

PS - You might want to start learning Farsi, and buy a Koran.

This should be required reading before anyone can vote.

[Teresa]

You hit it right on the nose Wilma... as did the original post.

If all of this was about MCCain? You can bet your sweet bottom.. I wouldn't even think of voting for him..I don;'t care if I was a 20 yr generation Republican. No way would I ever take a chance on putting a man.. who has THIS many unanswered skeletons in his closet in the White House.

But not the die hard Liberals.. Nooooooooo.. they won't even look in that direction. Just keep that sheet pulled tight over the head so no truth can get in.... let alone do the homework and find out it HAS got credentials and admit it.
Sad thing is................... Their ignorance and refusal to see what this man is about.. will ruin us all.

That ain't satire, that's the unvarnished truth! Some of us have been sayin THAT all along.............FACT of the matter is the ONLY way we are EVER gonna win this one is if they are ALL DEAD. Cause as long as there is ONE left that ONE will try to take as many with him as possible.

That's right, Pam.  Everyone needs to read Frank's post, "Intelligence Official: Obama Would Endanger Us" 
Obuma ain't the right man to handle this.  He will only make it worse, for us as a nation and for the innocent people that will be caught up in his folly.  God save us if he wins this election!

[pam]

It doesn't make any difference if it's Obama or Mccain either one Warph, these guys are a whole different kettle of fish. NObody is prepared to deal with em unless they are just like em. The BIGGEST difference between us and them is the average everyday american citizen isn't prepared to die for what they believe, these guys are, all of em.

[greatguns]

When can I count on George giving this speech?
