“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. Polls show that the majority of you think the economy is in the tank. And that’s despite record numbers of homeowners including record numbers of MINORITY homeowners. And while we’re mentioning minorities, I’ll point out that minority business ownership is at an all-time high. Our unemployment rate is as low as it ever was during the Clinton Administration. I’ve mentioned all those things before, but it doesn’t seem to have sunk in.

Despite the shock to our economy of 9/11, the stock market has rebounded to record levels and more Americans than ever are participating in these markets. 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 was 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 was 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?

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 outspend 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, dammit, you might just as well Fedex 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 or on NBC News. But even if it were, I doubt you’d be any smarter. Most of you would rather watch American Idol.

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. 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’re 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.

To the rest of you, up yours.

I couldn't find that part of your link, but it seems way too casual to be real.

Let's insist then that she is done.

You're done.

OMG, i am outraged about this injustice inflicted on the whore of jesus. Why do these animals that call themselves atheists need to mock this innocent sheep from the sex flocks of jesus!!!

I call for prayer. Let us pray that the world will end and jesus will come down to the planet. Because it is cold in space.

You have no career in comedy writing, but that's ok.

OMG, the grave injustice inflicted upon me by Our Lord!!! if only he had been more generous and I could have had a career as a comedy writer instead of spawn of satan!!!!

I weep for jesus.

Spur's loosin' it.

Not really. Since we apparently have adopted the policy of accepting idiocy I have embraced it.

"Let us pray that the world will end and jesus will come down to the planet. Because it is cold in space."

In space no one can hear your teeth chattering.

How old are you spur?

Since you call my beliefs idiocy, spur, does that mean I can call yours idiocy, or is there a double standard here, hmmmmm?

What a crock of shit.

What a marvelous rebuttal Nick, such skills.

Spurious just trolls my threads, starts strife, and gets them closed down or moved to the cesspool. He's that desperate for attention.:rolleyes:

That seems to be his purpose in life, NDS will be showing up soon.

Yeah. The attack dogs will be here soon.

I really do like this topic. The letter was great.:)

I like Nicks intelligent rebuttal in post #24.

Yeah. You should see my PMs.:rolleyes:

Are they still hounding you for a date?

Spurious just trolls my threads, starts strife, and gets them closed down or moved to the cesspool. He's that desperate for attention.:rolleyes:

OMG, whore of jesus, don't insult Allah!

What a marvelous rebuttal Nick, such skills.
Coming from the master of assholes, thats really means something to me.

Seriously, spur, and Nick, how old are you guys?

OMG, jesus...he said the ass word!! MAY HE BE PRAISED

That letter wasn't real, was it?

Seriously, spur, and Nick, how old are you guys?

TOGETHER OR SEPARATELY?

Are they still hounding you for a date?

They're very friendly and flirty until I say 'no thanks.' Then they lash out in vile personal attacks. It's really stupid.:rolleyes:

Separately spur.

They're very friendly and flirty until I say 'no thanks.' Then they lash out in vile personal attacks. It's really stupid.:rolleyes:

god dam you bitch. why don't you go out with me. you are so hot i feel the devil whispering in my ear to date you.

Seriously, spur, and Nick, how old are you guys?

I'd guess them between 9-28. That would be the IQs also.;)

Separately spur.

New rules from James R. You have to address a member by its proper name, satan.

Spidergoat is right, reals names only, asswipe!

I'd guess them between 9-28. That would be the IQs also.;)

OMG, if we had lived in the USA they would have euthanized our mummies!

So spur, you're 16, and Nick's 17?

Nick says 26. I'm sure he meant IQ.

sandy: love her or hate her, she makes hot topics :o

i still don't know what the fuck is going on :(

So spur, you're 16, and Nick's 17?

no homo, I am 8. My daddy will be so pissed when he reads the PM i got from sandy. for fucks sake, who sends links to nude picture to kids. christians of course.

I would find it hysterical if Bush quit. Let Cheney run the country:
No more illegal aliens.
No more terrorists.
No more bs.:D

Nick says 26. I'm sure he meant IQ.
Love Satan Hate God.

I would find it hysterical if Bush quit. Let Cheney run the country:
No more illegal aliens.
No more terrorists.
No more bs.:D

Sandy, what is religion?

No Sandy, I bet 26 is his age, his I.Q. must be at least somewhat higher than that.

i still don't know what the fuck is going on :(
It's best that way. The Lord can't punish you if you don't understand.

It's best that way. The Lord can't punish you if you don't understand.
Yes, but these pesky Christians keeping revealing the truth to us, thus ensuring we go to Hell.

Christianity needs to be explained to people.

Christianity needs to be explained to people.

You're just jealous of the ignorant people because you're going to hell.

Islam needs to be explained to people.

I'm sure you feel that way.

Osama worhips Allah, not the God of the Bible, so why don't you start a thread about that?

Osama worhips Allah, not the God of the Bible, so why don't you start a thread about that?
...

On a completely unrelated note, who was that scientist who got a rod hammered into his jaw before he was burned to death?

Luke?

I think it was Bruno.

I would find it hysterical if Bush quit. Let Cheney run the country:
No more illegal aliens.
No more terrorists.
No more bs.:D

But a big YES to homosexuals having kids.

"Let us pray that the world will end and jesus will come down to the planet. Because it is cold in space."

Damn it I thought Bush had quit. Stop teasing us.

It was obvious from the first paragraph that it was a piss take... Bush could never string that many coherent sentences together.

Osama worhips Allah, not the God of the Bible, so why don't you start a thread about that?

It's a sin to lie.

Christianity needs to be explained to people.I wish someone could. There's alot of 'splainin to do.

Cheney is already running the show. If Bush quit now, I would even forgive him that delusional speech.

It looks like she wrote it herself and forged Bush as the mock author to give it(in her mind) credibility.

Uh, no. If I wrote it, it would have a lot more offensive material.:D

Sandy, just to start a nice little nuclear war here...do you think that people who don't like Bush are anti-American?

Sandy, just to start a nice little nuclear war here...do you think that people who don't like Bush are anti-American?

She said that I "hate America" because I disputed that Bush was one of history's greatest Presidents.

No. I said you hate America because you do.:(

Let's call the first post a sermon from Bush if we're going to call three sentences from sandy preaching. Nothing's personal, it's just gravity. Don't let it get under your skin, because it's obvious.

I like the speech. I'm all excited to see how well the next admins going to do. I'm sure they'll have a better public speaker, but not sure if they'll have anything else. Besides that, the opposition really missed out on the historical opportunity to be able to establish a "told ya so" within the specific context. This administration didn't have a choice but to estalish one. It's already in the books. We shall see.

No. I said you hate America because you do.:(

No, I don't. You just hate rational debate and prefer to launch into ad hominems. The hypocrisy is that, in other threads, you ask others to lay off the personal attacks (against you) and to debate the points you make without name calling.

I wonder if you're oblivious to the fact that you are asjking for a courtesy that you refused to extend to me.

In any event, since you started it with the "you hate America" crap, I assume that I am perfectly justified in engaging in equally pointless ad hominem attacks against you.

If I remember correctly your first comment to me was something like "if more Americans read their Bibles, they'd also realize that the same book that says homosexuality is "abomination" (actually it's "a man lying with a man as he would with a woman"...so lesbian sex is A-Okay!!!)".....

I was repulsed and have no further interest in chatting/discussing.

Spidergoat is right, reals names only, asswipe!

I always thought that was the stupidest rule.
