hey, Lisa,
hope you're feeling better. :-) it dawned on me the
other day and my idea was confirmed today with the
announcement of Bush's reaffirmation of his
pre-emptive war doctrine. George Bush's version of
the Golden Rule is 'Do unto others before they do unto
you!' ;-)

Subject:Pres. Bush has all the answers
The Bush Administration's
answer to...
Our dependency on foreign oil and the risk of ecological disaster from
spills: Drill more.
The risk of Nuclear Winter: Build Nuclear "Bunker Buster" bombs, then
tell Iran and Korea they can't have any.
The need for increased revenue for "war" corporations such as
Haliburton: Start a war.
Too much resistance from the left: Tell NASA to go back to the Moon,
then remove funding for it.
Congress doesn't like me: Make a new Congress.
The Supreme Court doesn't like me: Make a new Supreme Court.
An unknown whistle-blower is spreading the truth about me: Kill the
messenger.
The high price of medicine: Eliminate medicine.
The need for better education: Eliminate funding for education.
The need for improvement of ANYTHING: Remove funding for it.
We're fighting a war and need better armor for the troops: Make them
pay
for their own armor.
Natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina: Eat cake and play the guitar.
The dwindling economy, rising inflation, and increased unemployment:
Steal from the poor and give to the rich.
Increased risk of terrorism at home: Tap citizens' phones and email.
Anyone argues: Lie about it, or say something like, "It's ok, I'm the
President."
Losing an election: Cheat.
My solution to all this: Replace the President, Vice President, and the
whole Executive Branch Staff. ASAP. The one we've got is
"out-of-whack".
Jim
Thanks for writing Jim. It can happen. Congress just needs to do it. (not holding breath)
