Good Evening & fuck you my fellow Americans...
Edited on Wed Jan-10-07 07:26 AM by Philosoraptor
A speech written by dick cheney and read by george w. bush, 1-10-2007

...I come before you tonight to tell you that I have thought long and hard about the results of the last election in 2006, and I have studied and contemplated the findings of the Iraq study group. I have heard the voice of the American people, loud and clear.

And after consulting with my new generals on the ground and in the theater of operation, and with my staff of experts, I want to announce this evening that I will go ahead and do exactly as I damn well please, and you can all go fuck yourselves, each and every single useless one of you. I am the president, I am the decider, you are beyond irrelevant to me and I utterly disregard you with the deepest contempt imaginable.

I will be sending 20,000 or more new, recycled and unprepared troops into Iraq, despite every logical reason against it, I will order more of your sons and daughters into harm's way so that every last dollar can be extracted from this newly liberated nation.

I decree more sacrifice, more piracy and more tyranny in the coming new year, and victory is at hand in the middle east. This is the new way forward, and this is the calling of our generation.



Thank you all for coming and may God continue to bless America.

5. If this does happen
and it wouldn't surprise me if it did (though I'm sure he'll use different language-can't irritate the base by using four letter words). If it does happen, I expect all members of Congress to remember and live up to their oath of office to defend the Constitution.

19. Bush's reality is simply that his legacy is more important
to him than the lifes of the men and women who will be serving over there in the coming months. To him they're just so much cannon fodder.

20. Personally, I think this speech will be the defining moment of his stupidity...
much along the lines of the Nixon, "I am not a crook" statement.

Watch for it, I have a feeling.

22. You could be right.
One of the talking heads said it's the most important speech of w's life. However, we have low expectations.

23. Actually it would be refreshing
to hear him say what he really means for a change. It would be his first honest speech.

28. LOL. Now I don't have to waste my beautiful mind
trying to decipher what the "new way forward" means. I was wondering if we were going to hold hands and skip or sashay... or if it was a CEO definition - they're always looking forward.

31. He didn't say "God Bless America" tonight, did he?
Everytime he ends one of his insane rants- he refers to God "blessing" America. Did I miss it?

38. "New way forward" is the latest magic 8-ball phrase for continuing the sale old shit?
Sheesh. You could create a random phrase generator for crap like that.

The important part is that yes, they can do whatever they want, and tell us meaningless drivel with a smile while they act. Patronization 'R Us.

There are only 3,000 dead US soldiers in Iraq. Come on America, we're on a new way forward to more meaningless deaths for the oil oil oil. Surely we can do better than only 3,000 dead. Other Presidents got to have far higher death tolls; can't look like a slacker!

40. Yeah, you can only use "Mission Accomplished" once.
"Stay the course", "New way forward", "Plan for victory"... US troops die for this?

They're laughing in our faces. Rolling on the floor laughing their asses off.
