Republicans... (Bush)

[Drimarki]

Republicans now have more seats in House of Representatives and the Senate. To me, what this means is that President George W. Bush would not have to worry about his actions being overrun by Senate, as now the legislative branch has more Republicans than Democrats. This means that it is easier for Bush to declare war on Iraq or any other countries he wish. And this obviously becomes a problem.

What would happen after he declared the war and won against Iraq? Does anybody honestly think that Bush would just sit there doing nothing? No. Since he is too stupid to think about economics, he would instead think about assaulting other countries. And this would result international problem. Look what Bush is doing right now. If the UN does not approve of his actions, then Bush is saying that he would attack Iraq by himself, meaning that he would not need any international aid. This already means that Bush is ready to do whatever actions, and it does not matter if the other nations agree or disagree to that action.

So the whole point of this is... that the fact that Republicans have taken more seat in House of Representatives and the Senate than Democrats is aiding Bush, which causes problems.

And if the Democrats controlled the legislative branch...

=== First Session ===

Tom Daschle: The economy is in trouble!

Democrats: He's right! It is! Economy! Garble garble!

Lone Republican: What should we do about it?

Daschle: Hrmm...

Democrats: Do... something... wha?

Daschle: Do something about it? What planet are you from, ass clown? Do something! Ha! What a joker!

Lone Republican: How about a tax cut?

Democrats: Rabble rabble rabble!

Lone Republican: Welfare reform?

Democrats: Rabble rabble rabble!

Lone Republican: Well... what would you suggest?

Democrats: *cricket noises*

Tom Daschle: ... the economy is in trouble!

Democrats: *Orgiastic cheering*

Lone Republican: *weeps quietly*

=== Second Session ===

Tom Daschle: AIDs has become an epidemic!

Democrats: AIDs! He's right! It is a problem!

Lone Republican: Hmm.. what should we do about it?

Tom Daschle: Oh, you kidder you! Senators aren't supposed to take action, they're supposed to complain about things and sit on their asses!

Lone Republican: No, seriously... what should we do about it?

Democrats: Action... what the hell does that mean?

Lone Republican: Maybe we should encourage people with AIDs... not to have sex?

Democrats: RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE!!!

Tom Daschle: Abstinence? Are you fucking insane? People with AIDs should be able to fuck the brains out of anyone they want, whenever they want, wherever they want! What are you, some kind of Nazi?

Lone Republican: Then what should we do?

Democrats: *cricket noises*

Tom Daschle: AIDs is a big problem!

Democrats: *orgiastic cheering*

Lone Republican: *weeps bitterly*

=== Session the Third ===

Tom Daschle: Minorities!

Democrats: Hurray! Minorities!

Tom Daschle: I love minorities so much! I want to give them all hugs!

Democrats: Hurray! Minorities!

Tom Daschle: It's too bad that the Man is putting them down and keeping them from competing in the job market.

Lone Republican: Who's keeping them down?

Daschle: You know... the Man!

Lone Republican: Right... so... what should we do about the Man?

Democrats: Dur?

Daschle: Alright buddy, the first time was funny, the second time was silly, but now you're out of line!

Lone Republican: You fuck tart! How are we going to help anything if all you do is fucking complain about everything?!?

Daschle: Hmmm... Let's all go have ass sex with Jesse Jackson.

Democrats: *Orgiastic cheering*

Lone Republican: *weeps bitterly*

========

You get the idea.

[Baldhunk]

My turn to write the funny story!

Bush: I know Im not going to make it to another term. Hell, by now even my supporters have figured out that I'm an idiot! Cheney! What should I do now?!

Cheney: Well, for God's sake, don't let anybody start yammering about the economy. It's not my area. I figure we can have another war...? Maybe get Iraq? Hell..I made a ton of dough from selling them Halburton parts to rebuild the oil fields last time! We can do it again!

Bush: Yeah! And it's a great distraction! I hate listening to people complaining about education...Hey! Did you hear Jeb's schools in Florida are now worst in the country? Worse than Texas! Heeheeheeeee!!

Cheney: ...about Iraq...?

Bush: YEAH! That meanie Saddam tried to hurt my Daddy. Nobody hurts my Daddy! Why Im gonna get him good...where is my ...umm...what was I saying?

Cheney: Saddam.

Bush: I hate that guy! You know what he tried to do to my Daddy?! He...

Cheney: Calm down George. Let's get Saddam. Everybody's mad at Muslims right now, anyway. And Desert storm went pretty well. Lets do it again, before someone starts talking about Enron.

Bush: Right. And I'll be at the ranch for a few months.

Cheney: I'll be in my underground bunker.

<<<RRRIIINNNGGGG!!!>>> <<<RRRIIINNNGGGG>>>

Tom Ridge: Somebody get that damn phone! Im trying to sleep!

Cheney: (SIGH) Running this country is tougher than I expected. Hello? Who is calling?

Bush: Who is it?

Cheney: Just France, China, and Russia.

Bush: What the hell do they want?

Cheney: They want you to quit threatening Iraq. They say you are making an ass of yourself. I say screw em.

Bush: Yeah. Tell them to kiss my ass. (Puts on cowboy hat and holsters toy guns.) We dont need any world opinions. Hang up on em!

Satan: It's showtime!

Actually, Congress has already voted and approved granting Bush the power to use force if necessary and that was before the election.

You seem to be suffering from the popular Bushaphobia. He is not going to just start "assaulting other countries" for no reason. We are going against Iraq because they've been putting on a smoke and mirrors show about their weapons programs for a decade. They've lied to the UN, they've lied to us, they've lied to everybody. Some of these "presidential palaces" that the weapons inspectors are being refused access to are THOUSANDS OF ACRES. Together they make up the area of an entire city, more than enough room to hide weapons. Even the weapons inspectors agree. The last time they got access to one after months of haggling, it was absolutely wiped of anything. They said there had been an obvious cleanup job. Something had been there.

And about the UN supporting him, guess what? They do. Everyone was afraid that he would just attack and not go through the UN. The Bushaphobics ranted about this on and on. Guess what? He did go to the UN. Now after negotiating, the security council voted UNANIMOUSLY to adopt the US resolution. We can'tgo soft on these tin-pot dictators anymore. He has one chance to let inspectors in to anything with no notice or he's dead. Sometimes it just doesn't get any simpler.

It's not a decade. The inspetors left(notice left, they were not kicked out) in 1998.

They've lied to the UN, they've lied to us, they've lied to everybody.

And there is yet to be conclusive proof that they have lied.

Some of these "presidential palaces" that the weapons inspectors are being refused access to are THOUSANDS OF ACRES.

The weapons inspectors have very many different stories. They can't seem to make a coherant message.

And about the UN supporting him, guess what? They do. Everyone was afraid that he would just attack and not go through the UN.

He would have if the UN refused. As he said. Seems to me that the views of the UN seurity council were pretty much irrelevant.

Yeah, these damn tin-pot ditators, disobeying America. How dare they?! All heil Bush!

[Randolph]

Let me explain something...

Do you recall that little incident a few years back that we refer to as 'Desert Storm'?

Yeah. Well, Saddam invaded Kuwait. Everybody else wailed on his ass for it. Just before the tanks rolled into Baghdad to destroy him and his regime, he surrendered.

Ok, now here's the kicker, and the reason we're discussing another invasion in the first place. He signed a TREATY. Yep, that's right, a contractual agreement. It contained many conditions on which Saddam would be left in power.

Saddam broke ALL of those conditions.

In conclusion, hippies like to smoke weed. PHEER TEH VOID!!!

[Slizor]

Yeah. Well, Saddam invaded Kuwait. Everybody else wailed on his ass for it. Just before the tanks rolled into Baghdad to destroy him and his regime, he surrendered.

Exactly. He signed a treaty with a gun to his head. You think the treaty would be fair? No, and it wasn't.

Ok, now here's the kicker, and the reason we're discussing another invasion in the first place. He signed a TREATY. Yep, that's right, a contractual agreement. It contained many conditions on which Saddam would be left in power.

Saddam broke ALL of those conditions.

Again, you haven't proved that he has weapons of mass destruction. And to be fair it doesn't really matter. They've had economic and military sanctions, attempted coups and constant bombing, all by America.

[House-Of-Leaves]

I have to agree with the previous poster. (Slizor? Am I spelling that correctly?) Anyway. There's no proof that there's weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. In fact, Scott Ritter, a former weapons inspector, has gone before congress and stated that there AREN'T any.

I could go on and on here, but I won't.

[VisaFreak]

I believe Iraq has mass destruction weapons just because Saddam is insane....
