The Tide is Turning
Friends,
When the proposition to spend and send more for Iraq becomes this openly laughable (see Michael Moore's letter below), the war is lost. The big question now: Is it over? Do we have the guts to let it be over--I mean both OUR wars: the war in Iraq and the war in Palestine fought by our favorite proxy bully--Israel. It's all or nothing, folks. When you clip the wings of demons, you clip 'em all. Flight cancelled. Reigns of terror over. We should all be as sick with Palestine as we are Iraq, doubled over in pain and prayer, and retching our guts out like we had the moral equivalent of cholera. Read on, friends. Laugh now, then continue vigils interrupted by phone calls to senators and representatives. For the first time, they're listening--happy to do so, happy to be allowed to be human beings for a change. Senator Casey's staffer told me "99%" of the multitude of calls they were receiving about the President's speech were against him and his plan. But those aircraft carriers are still steaming toward the Persian Gulf. When they turn around and head home, we can say we've had a victory.
Pray without ceasing,
David
Dear Mr. President:
Send Even MORE Troops (and you go, too!) .
..fromMichael Moore1/10/07
Dear Mr. President,Thanks for your address to the nation. It's good to know you stillwant to talk to us after how we behaved in November.Listen, can I be frank? Sending in 20,000 more troops just ain't gonnado the job. That will only bring the troop level back up to what itwas last year. And we were losing the war last year! We've already hadover a million troops serve some time in Iraq since 2003. Another fewthousand is simply not enough to find those weapons of massdestruction! Er, I mean... bringing those responsible for 9/11 tojustice! Um, scratch that. Try this -- BRING DEMOCRACY TO THE MIDDLEEAST! YES!!!
You've got to show some courage, dude! You've got to win this one!C'mon, you got Saddam! You hung 'im high! I loved watching the videoof that -- just like the old wild west! The bad guy wore black! The hangmen were as crazy as the hangee! Lynch mobs rule!!!
Look, I have to admit I feel very sorry for the predicament you're in.As Ricky Bobby said, "If you're not first, you're last." And you beinghumiliated in front of the whole world does NONE of us Americans anygood.
Sir, listen to me. You have to send in MILLIONS of troops to Iraq, notthousands! The only way to lick this thing now is to flood Iraq withmillions of us! I know that you're out of combat-ready soldiers -- soyou have to look elsewhere! The only way you are going to beat a nation of 27 million -- Iraq -- is to send in at least 28 million!
Here's how it would work:
The first 27 million Americans go in and kill one Iraqi each. Thatwill quickly take care of any insurgency. The other one million of uswill stay and rebuild the country. Simple.
Now, I know you're saying, where will I find 28 million Americans togo to Iraq? Here are some suggestions:
1. More than 62,000,000 Americans voted for you in the last election(the one that took place a year and half into a war we already knew wewere losing). I am confident that at least a third of them would wantto put their body where there vote was and sign up to volunteer. Iknow many of these people and, while we may disagree politically, I know that they don't believe someone else should have to go and fighttheir fight for them -- while they hide here in America.
2. Start a "Kill an Iraqi" Meet-Up group in cities across the country.I know this idea is so early-21st century, but I once went to a LouDobbs Meet-Up and, I swear, some of the best ideas happen after thethird mojito. I'm sure you'll get another five million or so enlisteesfrom this effort.
3. Send over all members of the mainstream media. After all, they wereyour collaborators in bringing us this war -- and many of them arealready trained from having been "embedded!" If that doesn't bring thetotal to 28 million, then draft all viewers of the FOX News channel.
Mr. Bush, do not give up! Now is not the time to pull your punch!
Don't be a weenie by sending in a few over-tired troops. Get yourpeople behind you and YOU lead them in like a true commander in chief!
Leave no conservative behind! Full speed ahead! We promise to write. Go get 'em W!
Yours,
Michael Moore
