If You were President(dictator), what would you do?

[Ibanez]

If I were President, the Iraq Gov't would have 6 months to control thier country as best as possible. At that time, all US Troops will leave, at once. Also, foreign aid to countries would cease. That money would then be funneled into bettering America(education, security, healthcare, etc...). How can we help another country feed it's citizens, when we have Americans going hungry. I would work towards lowering the tax on gasoline, and spend on researching and creating Alternatives. All illegal immigrants currently imprisoned will be deported and all costs charged to their respective countries. All illegal immigrants will be given one chance to become a citizen. Welfare will be limited only to those out of work for 6 months. Once on Welfare, you have 3 months to find a job. After 3 months, regardless of employment status, welfare benefits would cease. You may reapply in 2 years. This is to curb the abuse. Money from Social Security will stay in Social Security. The government is not supposed to support it's citizens with a paycheck. People arrested for drug use, will have sentences reduced and released. The laws will be rewritten to make drug use a misdemeanor while the selling and dealing will still be a felony. Capital Punishment will be enforced in all Federal Prisions and carried out the day it is sentenced. Also, Lethal Injection and Electricution costs too much. Now the preferred method is Hanging. I will work towards putting term limits on Congress, that way the crap will eventually get filtered out. Tax will be a percentage for everyone, regardless of which tax bracket you fall into. If you make you $10,000, you pay the same percentage as the person making $10,000,000,000.

Ron Paul.....is that you?

[Col Hogan]

Mark, I think you'd lose the middle class quickly...allowing illegals to become citizens...flat tax rate for everyone...cutting off welfare to factory workers who lose jobs because of NAFTA...

All illegal immigrants currently imprisoned will be deported and all costs charged to their respective countries.

And if they refuse to pay? What? Invade them?

Sure - maybe we can just annex more of Mexico. Rocky Point should be part of Arizona!!

jon, THAT might be the dumbest decision EVER made by our forefathers. Giving away Baja and access to the Gulf of California was downright retarded.

[Ibanez]

Damn, do any of you know me!? Repeat after me...S-A-T-I-R-E. What's that spell?


SATIRE!?!?!?!?

Besides, if we invaded Mexico, could we rename it Newer Mexico?

[SuperHornet]

We've already invaded Mexico. More than once if memory serves.

BTW, I still can't figure out why some people are so b@lls-to-the-wall for getting out of Iraq when we still have a permanent military presence in Germany, Japan, Korea, and the Middle East. I believe we still have folk in Kosovo as well. What's the big deal about Iraq?

I agree that we're getting spread too thin. But jumping out early is just going to turn the place into another Vietnam.

They actually tried to get it, as well as all of Baja - but Santa Ana refused to sell that.

F Santa Ana...I hear there's human rights violations going on in Baja as well as manufacturing and storage of WMD's. The Bush Administration sends former AG Alberto Gonzalez to the U.N. to provide photos proving Mexico is part of the "Axle of Evil|...



...and declares our intent to protect fishing and diving along the coast and in the Sea of Cortez. Then, we exercise the 200 nautical mile limit, and Wham! Since the Sonoran desert was once under water...we pick up the Nogales crossing down through Guyamas all the way to Puerto Vallarta.


(...the "plan', code named Desert Storm III...TX,AZ and CA National Guard stage a training exercise in National City...then when the sun sets...they climb through the holes in the fence............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................and we rename the territory, "Los Arbustos Sagaces")

I LIKE IT.

[BigApp]

I would disband the Department of Education, and send 1/2 of the $$$ that were funding it directly to the states for their DOE's. The other 1/2 would go to the states for their law enforcement agencies.

I would end all foreign aid. Use that money to help rebuild our roads.

I would reciprocate import taxes to equal the tariffs of the exporting country. No more one way deals like "Free Trade".

I would ban all neckties.

Make Puerto Rico and Guam pee or get off the pot. Either you want to be a State of our Union, or not. The free ride is over.

Make Elvis Presley's birthday a National Holiday. Or better, the date of his death a National Day of Mourning (hey, there's no holiday in August).

When visiting around the country, I would see to it that I visited a local family's home--without notice. You'd never know when the President might show up at your door!

Create the Congressional Oversight Committee on Conregsional Oversights.
