if you were President
 

Could you get the job done?


should we continue in this war until Iraq is a stable democracy?




The fact that we are building schools and infrastructure in Iraq goes unreported on the media death watch. The last big hurdle is to train a decent Iraqi police force. Once they prove they have the will to police their own, we can start pulling out.

:)

I would go on tv on day one and say "we won the war!" Then start bringing the boys home on day 2.
Day 3 I would nationalize the oil and energy industry.
Day 4 same thing for health care.
Day 5 I would start a huge project with all the money saved from the war and rebuild our infrastructure using ONLY US companies and workers.

The only responsibility that the US president has is to the citizens of the USA.

Thats called a dictatorship....

What's your point?

The thinbg is the troops are there now and will have to be there for a bit longer, they are stuck there and should deal with the mess they have made.

Fuck Iraq. Cut & run. We shouldn't have been there in the first place. Letting any more Americans die there would be pointless. The end result will be the same.

Iraq is a mess, they have 60% unemployment. Clean and electric is spotty while us government contractors took billions to do something they didnt do.
They have been fighting for 100's of years,if we think they are going to be stable we are kidding ourselves.

There is absolutely no way to bring peace to the middle east, it simply cannot be done. It is like trying to civilize lions. You may be able to get away with petting them but sooner or later they'll eat you.

The only real way to wage a war on those terrorists is simply to QUIT USING OIL! if on 9/12 we spent all of this "war" money on funding oil alternatives we wouldn't be using oil anymore. If we don't use oil that means the british and the entire world no longer truly needs oil which would make gasoline about $.5/gallon and all those fuckers would have is a giant never ending beach...

I disagree. Tell the women to take off the darth maul outfits, stop making sex a bad thing, and maybe they wont figure out cool ways to destroy each other.

I would make it mandatory for people to like poo

you are so right

you cannot drastically alter the core of their society... simply cannot be done. You're looking at thousands of years of the rest of the worlds evolution while these people are barely above the stone age as far as evolution of society. They basically club their women and bring them home and have their way with them.

Even if the bible thumpers were to try to "christianize" them what the bible contains isn't much better than what their book teaches... here in the US we simply ignore most of the book and overlook everything else... Teens IN CHURCHES get knocked up far more than teens outside of churches because even though more outside church are having sex the ones in church either "fall in love" and/or simply aren't taught properly about birth control.

Our way isn't much better than their way so fuck trying to bring democracy to the rest of the world when we've proven democracy doesn't work... A decent dictactor is better than our system of corruption.

bleh i hate these threads.

If I was president (which is IMPOSSIBLE, im in america's hat), I would put massive funding into nuclear energy. I would also put huge funding into Hydrogen, compressed air (look it up), and electric cars. I would make it my duty in life to get rid of the massive space between red and blue, so that instead of having an entire country where 50% hate the other 50%, we could actually get something positive done for once.

I'd also get rid of this ethanol bullshit, seeing as how it's not going to help with food shortages, and uses a ton of energy to produce.

And finally, I'd invest kabillion's of dollars into moon bases, mars missions, terraforming, space elevators, and nuclear pulse drives for fast space travel to most of the planets.

Then I'd fuck an intern.

the hydrogen roadblock is only the "gas stations" and lack of infrastructure but doesn't work as a total replacement because what those cars spit out is also dangerous in very large quantities.

space is an insane waste of money, we need to be able to travel through space much faster than we currently can for it to be worth anything. Also there aren't any planets even close to us that would be worth terraforming.

Hence my funding for nuclear propulsion (look up the Orion drive). We could terraform mars in no time, it would just take my kabillion dollars of funding :winkwink:

If I was president I would have 1000+ people telling me what to say and do just like every other president.

so yes i would be able to get the "job" "done" no problem.

wasn't there a treaty that basically roadblocked a single country owning a planet? If we're gonna fund terraforming we'd have to be able to establish ownership.

I want my damn flying car before we waste anymore cash on space travel! Also nuclear power won't work for things like cars simply because you'd get some rag head driving them into buildings.... shit think of accidents then...

i didnt realize the president really did too much

what i would try to do...

1) make it job #1 to figure a way to get off the oil, make it national importance like when we spent god know how much money on getting a man in space. if not get all the way off it, at least to the point where we could get by on what we produced along with some mexican oil
2) tell the middle east to go fuck themselves and sell that shit somewhere else
3) tell israel we did our part to help them out.. now they are on the own
4) randomly drop a few million laptops with satellite internet connection into north korean communities
5) let the mexicans work in the country as much as they want so the lazy americans can keep playiing xbox all day and still have a pretty looking lawn. in exchange we will accept all their oil at a 50% discount
6) play a lot of golf with bill clinton and OJ
7) then go fuck some interns

3) tell israel we did our part to help them out.. now they are on the own :)

Israel is fucking problem .. these hook nose bitches !!! We kiss there ass
because they OWN AMERICA!!

LOL

we are fucked!


have a good day!

We could be off middle east oil before you think. It amazes me that the mainstream media barely even mentioned one of the biggest oil finds in US history.

"A new black gold rush is under way, this time in North Dakota. The potential payoff is huge -- up to 100 billion barrels of oil. That?s twice the size of Alaska?s reserves and potentially enough to meet all U.S. oil needs for two decades."

haha :thumbsup

you need a cigar :thumbsup

I got this via email - but you'll never hear the words spoken from any of our "leaders":

WOULDN'T IT BE GREAT TO TURN ON THE TV AND HEAR ANY U.S. PRESIDENT, DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN GIVE THE FOLLOWING SPEECH?

'My Fellow Americans: As you all know, the defeat of the Iraq regime has been completed.

Since congress does not want to spend any more money on this war, our mission in Iraq is complete.

This morning I gave the order for a complete removal of all American forces from Iraq. This action will be complete within 30 days. It is now time to begin the reckoning.

Before me, I have two lists. One list contains the names of countries which have stood by our side during the Iraq conflict. This list is short . The United Kingdom , Spain , Bulgaria , Australia , and Poland are some of the countries listed there.

The other list contains every one not on the first list. Most of the world's nations are on that list. My press secretary will be distributing copies of both lists later this evening.

Let me start by saying that effective immediately, foreign aid to those nations on List 2 ceases immediately and indefinitely. The money saved during the first year
alone will pretty much pay for the costs of the Iraqi war. THEN EVERY YEAR THERE AFTER IT'll GO TO OUR SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM SO IT WONT GO BROKE IN 20 YEARS.

The American people are no longer going to pour money into third world Hell holes and watch those government leaders grow fat on corruption.

Need help with a famine? Wrestling with an epidemic? Call France .

In the future, together with Congress, I will work to redirect this money toward solving the vexing social problems we still have at home. On that note, a word to terrorist organizations. Screw with us and we will hunt you down
and eliminate you and all your friends from the face of the earth.

Thirsting for a gutsy country to terrorize? Try France or maybe China .

I am ordering the immediate severing of diplomatic relations with France , Germany , and Russia . Thanks for all your help, comrades. We are retiring from NATO as well. Bonne
chance, mezamies.

I have instructed the Mayor of New York City to begin towing the many UN diplomatic vehicles located in Manhattan with more than two unpaid parking tickets to sites where those vehicles will be stripped, shredded and crushed. I don't care about whatever treaty
pertains t o this. You creeps have tens of thousands of unpaid tickets. Pay those tickets tomorrow or watch your precious Benzes, Beamers and limos be turned over to some of the finest chop shops in the world. I love New York

A special note to our neighbors. Canada is on List 2. Since we are likely to be seeing a lot more of each other, you folks might want to try not pissing us off for a change.

Mexico is also on List 2 its president and his entire corrupt government really need an attitude adjustment. I will have a couple extra
thousand tanks and infantry divisions sitting around. Guess where I am going to put'em? Yep, border security.

Oh, by the way, the United States is abrogating the NAFTA treaty - starting now.

We are tired of the one-way highway. Immediately, we'll be drilling for oil in Alaska- which will take care of this country's oil needs for decade s to come. If you're an environmentalist who opposes this decision, I refer you to List 2 above: pick a country and move there.

It is time for America to focus on its own welfare and its own citizens. Some will accuse us of isolationism. I answer them by saying, 'darn tootin'.

Nearly a century of trying to help folks live a decent life around the world has only earned us the undying enmity of just about everyone on the planet. It is time to eliminate hunger in America . It is time to eliminate homelessness in America . To the nations on List 1, a final thought. Thank you guys. We owe you and we won't forget.

To the nations on List 2, a final thought: You might want to learn to speak
Arabic.

God bless America .. Thank you and good night.'

If I were the president here in our country going to remove the tax fees!

Hey Storm Tracker I think you are confused...... the site you are looking for to make your insightful posts is called Stormfront. :321GFY

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
how fucking stupid can you be ... want freedom fries with that ?

^^^ That was too long to read.. :helpme

If i was president I ´ll cut this war in first place...and use all that war destinated money in a better way...

HAHAHA

You must be from one of those list 2 countries!!

haha :1orglaugh nice pic

if i were president

i would not carry oh no spare change
i would just rearrange the whole government structure
cause there seems to be something thats fucking with the flucture of the money.

track the money down ; good start...

its called big oil and big meds own all the politicians.... its all about corruption ;) make the house of reps a simple lottery... Only way to get a real sample of real people. Sure you'll get some nutjobs in there but doesn't the current system do that?

nah im too lazy, i dont want to actually have to work and give speeches (i have anxiety about giving speeches). i like sleeping 8 hours everyday and going to the beach everyday, working on keeping myself fit and tanning. Why work hard and stress, it just makes you AGE FASTER!

I want to have a lot of rest and live a life full of leisure so that I won't have a lot of wrinkles and gray hair, I want to stay youthful for as long as possible. Why stress when you don't have to. Life is good!

Do you see how fast presidents age??

as this pres already proved... you don't have to be a great public speaker or well prepared for anything... hell you can even say whatever you feel like when you believe the cameras aren't rolling...

it would be stressful tho still to give speeches and interviews, for me the stress level would be 10 from 1-10, I might actually hyperventilate. Once I had to give a speech in front of 20 people in a college English class and afterwards my stomach felt physically ill, I think I was shaking and trembling in front of everyone. It's very scary!

I think Paris Hilton should be president!

If I was President, I'll find someone most suitable for the job than me.

.... I'd explain the UFO phenomena

After reading this post I realise why none of us is in politics... Don't get me wrong, I don't want to make enemies here on GFY (hell, I'm only 6 posts old here, this one included) but... all I want to say is this: we don't have access to the information that the leaders of US have, so decisions that are made are based on those informations and sometimes the general public doesn't welcome those decisions because they don't fully understands them. So stick to porn, leave the politics to those who are already there, and if the gas is too expensive make more money...

Seriously, end fascism in the states. Back the fuck off the gun laws. Give people the right to make choices versus legislation of my moral beliefs. Respect seperation of church and state. End the "so called" drug war, and fund education (actually do it). End the war in Iraq - cut and run. Re-read the constitution over and over and over, and then overturn the Patriot Act, and all other congressional acts of obscenity and abuse.

But then again, Im here on GFY - a long way from the white house.

day 6, you'd have your name officially changed to hugo chavez
day 10-439579384583985794385743 - the us would petition every 7th day for chinese food aid, which it'd get some rice out of, and every 12th day for inclusion in the african democratic community, which it would be denied for economical reasons.

every one matters ;- )

:thumbsup
