Why My Slanted View

The War on Arabs and Muslims in Iraq, worth every penny of it
To The Editor,
I sit here and read the news about the stock markets around the world and the turmoil due to the declining value of the dollar and the economy of the United States.  A three trillion dollar war to fight Arabs and Muslim for Israel to implement its racist policies, expand settlements and to set up a proxy empire in the Arab world.  It is worth every penny of it and hope that voters and tax payers in the United States enjoy every minute of it.  Who cares about social security, health care and the educational system? Who cares about dying Palestinian and Iraqi children? Israel First.  I know that I am ecstatic.

The Cho Family Apologized!
 
Time for apology is now
The Cho family apologized to the people of the United States for the murder of 32 students at Virginia Tech University, so I think the right thing is for the Bush family to apologize to the people of Iraq, Palestine and Afghanistan for the war crimes committed against them by its delusional son, President Bush.
It is the right thing to do. It is the ethical thing to do. It is the legal thing to. It is time for remorse and restitution for the people of Iraq and Palestine.

Draft the elderly
From: Riad Elsolh Hamad [mailto:pcwfaustin@...]

Subject: Mr. President Bush, I found it. I found it. Military draft for the elderly.

 Dear Mr. President Bush,
On the occasion of your glorious inauguration next week for the second term of your presidency, I would like to congratulate you and offer you my full and total support. As a patriotic American and a fellow Yeehaw Texas who lives a little ways from Crawford, your homestead, I would like to offer you my services and some ideas to help you resolve some of the problems facing your great nation.  Although I said in the title of the letter � I found it, I found it,� my name is not Issac Newton and no, I am not Jewish and by no means I am a physicist.  My name is Riad Elsolh Hamad, an Arab and a Muslim from Albasta Alfowqa in Beirut, Lebanon and the only thing that is common between Mr. Newton and I, is the fact that like him, I had to chop off a slice of my 4 inches Arab biological weapon that I was born with in a process called circumcision.  The biological weapon that we the Arabs and Muslims are using to take over the world through voting booths and democracy.  The blessed democracy that you are bestowing on  my brothers and sisters in Iraq with to elect elderly Shia clerics. The Shia clerics who will make sure that just like Iran, the elections at the end of this month are the first and last elections that will be held after we liberated these heathens from our crony and lackey the butcher of Iraq Saddam.
As I said, my name is Riad Elsolh Hamad and my son has a completely different name than mine in pronunciation and spelling and my son and I are 32 years apart in age.  Still a lot of people here in Texas do not seem to recognize the differences between the two of us in age, height and weight and they still call both of us the same name.  My son and I are still called: � Camel jockeys,� � Sand niggers,� � towel face,� and � camel herders despite the fact that none of us has ever lived in a desert and the first camel I ever saw was in the San Antonio Zoo in Texas.  This is despite the fact that I have lived her for 34 years and paid more income taxes than Texaco and Exxon ever did.
Please excuse me for providing you with economic advice since we �Ayrabs� are only good enough for gas stations, grocery stores and falafel stands. This is despite the fact that the average Arab in the United States earns 5000 dollars annually more than the average American and has at least two years of college education more than the average Americans. We left economic policy to our cousins, the children of Abraham, the Zionist Jews to make sure that that they allocate billions of dollars a year to support the � only democracy in the middle east, israel.�  The billions that we still send to kill men, women and children and destroy homes of Palestinian Arabs regardless of the negative consequences of such policies on our interests in the Arab and Muslim worlds.
Dear Mr. President,
From what I have been reading in the news there are several major policy and executive issues that you have to deal with and allow me to summarize below as follows:
     1) The social security fund and its ability to provide services for the elderly beyond the year 2020.
     2) The Medicare and Medicaid funds and their ability to fund increasing medical services for the growing elderly population.
3)        The federal fiscal deficit that is hovering around 500 billion dollars a year and a national debt that is around 7. 6 trillion dollars today. http://www.toptips.com/debtclock.html
4)        The highest ever trade deficit that is growing despite the lowest value for the dollars in more than 10 years. Simply because the Chinese laborers are able to produce goods at a lot cheaper wages than our overpaid and overfed labor force and still save 40 percent of their wages.[1]
5)        The tax breaks that you promised us grateful Americans who voted you in office in order to extend the tax deductions that you bestowed on us during your first term. This is despite the fact that the government could not afford it and had to borrow money to finance such tax deductions.
6)        Drop in sales tax revenue on the state and city levels thus forcing reduction of services and degradation of infrastructure such as bridges, roads and hospitals.
7)        High unemployment and hidden employment due to the outsourcing of jobs to China and India.
8)        The inability of the armed forces to meet its recruitment quotas and forcing the reserves to extend the tour of duty to grumbling young men and women.  In addition to the cost of hiring �private contractors� to do the work that cheap black, Latino and minority troops can do.
9)        A dramatic increase in Veterans Administration spending on medical benefits for retired military personnel from the Korean War, Vietnam War and Gulf War I.
10)       The housing crisis that is forcing the government to spend hard earned tax money of providing shelter to undeserving low- income blacks and Latinos.
Ok, I will stop right here since I know that you do not like to hear bad news and that is why you do not watch television and you depend on Dick Cheney to give you a summary of the rosy picture of the state of our nation.  My proposal is very simple and would not require legislation and between your leadership and the wisdom of our Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld it can be done with a little disinformation campaign. The disinformation campaign that your government was successful in executing to justify the war in Iraq and the so called � War on Terror.�  The proposal is to draft the elderly who are over 65 years of age and know how to read and write.  A General Education Diploma, GED will suffice and there will be no need for the burdensome high school diploma. 
Why the draft and why the elderly?  The answer if very  simple and if you give me five minutes of your time, I will make you a believer.  First, when you draft the elderly they will not have the energy to demonstrate or rally since hell, they need some one to hold on to in order to pee in the bathroom.   The elderly cannot demonstrate since a lot of them are in wheel chairs and we can always have the police arrest them for blocking the traffic and disturbing the peace just like the New York City Police Department and the Austin Police Department did to the anti war demonstrators. Those bastards. Only if they knew of your grand plans for Iraq, the so called Middle East and the flourishing economy.
Secondly, the young men and women in America would love the idea of drafting the elderly because that will mean that they do not have to serve in the armed forces and go to Iraq. Also, this will mean increasing their chances on putting hands on the inheritance they have been waiting for and can hardly wait for their parents and grandparents to kick the bucket. I will wager you that the day you declare the draft for the elderly, you will poll rating will be the highest ever and the highest ratings of any president in the history of the United States.
Now, what will this executive order do to your plans for the economy, the war in Iraq and the possibility of your running for office in 2008. Yes in 2008 jus bear with me.
1)     The social security benefits will not be necessary as the elderly will be receiving stipends as recruits.  Our rubber stamp Republican Congress, just like the Saddam era parliament will pass legislation that will ensure that the elderly cannot receive draft time stipends and social security benefits at the same time.  The positive impact of reducing the social security payments on the budget is about 20 percent of our federal budget or about 450 billion dollars a year. http://encarta.msn.com/media_461566684/U_S_Government_Spending.html
2)     The Medicare cost of 1.5 trillion dollars for the next ten years will not be necessary http://www.contracostatimes.com/mld/cctimes/7820234.htm?template=contentModules/printstory.jsp&1c .  The money can then be used to show a surplus, buy more weapons and may be start a new war.  As for the savings from Medicaid, the annual spending of about 825 billion dollars will not be necessary as the elderly will be receiving the medical services of the troops in Iraq by using wooden cardboard boxes for beds.  They will not be able to complain because they will be afraid of being labeled �traitors who are aiding the terrorists.� http://www.washingtonpost.com/ac2/wp-dyn/A28252-2003Nov11?language=printer
3)     The federal deficit will not be an issue any more since the annual deficit of 500 billion dollars will be covered with the savings in social security spending, cuts in Medicare and Medicaid.  As a matter of fact, the total spending on these 3 large spending program is about 900 billion dollars annually which means you will actually end up with a surplus that will dwarf the surpluses of the guy before you who abused Monica Lewinsky sexually.  With such a surplus you will see tens of millions of people on the street demonstrating to demand the amendment of the constitution to allow you to run for at third term.  Demonstrations that will let those damn communists and hippies who demonstrated against your wise decision to liberate Iraq cry in shame.  The surplus can be used to modernize our military and prepare for your great vision of liberating Iran and Syria and expanding the values of our great democracy
4)     The trade deficit will not be an issue since the draft and the eventual demise of the old farts will lead to new economic realities.  We are going to send the elderly to Iraq to fight and get killed which will allow our young people to put their hands of more than 8 trillion dollars in personal wealth of the total 11 trillion personal wealth in the United States. http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-soi/98pwart.pdf
If I know our young people well, they will go out and spend it and buy goods and services inside the country and stimulate the local economies. Bars and restaurants will be doing booming business which will generate domestic economic activity that will rock the pants of those girliemen Democrats.  The people of the world will regain confidence in our economy and start pouring their savings here which will eliminate the departure from the dollar and the reduction in the trade deficit.
5)     The tax breaks will be affordable now with the budget surpluses and would not be even probably necessary as the young people of the United States will be spending their inheritance and enjoying wealth like they have never had money before.  Besides, the government will receive taxes on the distributed wealth that will even increase the budget surpluses by hundreds of billions of dollars.
6)     The spending by our young people of more than 6 trillion dollars in wealth and the multiplier effects of such wealth will increase sales tax revenues for the states.  New sales tax receipts will allow our local governments to build more bridges and highways to enable our young people to drive their SUVs and Hummers purchased with their new acquired wealth. There will be no need for building new hospitals as the elderly will be dead and gone and medical services will not be necessary.  As a matter of fact, it could be an economic boon since funeral homes will be busy, lumber companies will be busy making coffins that the unemployment rate will drop so much, Congress might have to pass your great immigration bill.  The bill that will allow cheap Mexican labor to come and work in the United States so our companies do not have to pay higher minimum wage, social security or health benefits.
7)     The new wealth and the way our young people will spend it surely will create the jobs that our economy will need to reduce unemployment. We might even have to open training schools in order to make sure that we have enough specialists to pierce tattoos, stick needles to draw tattoos and teach the latest combinations of mixing alcohol to our descendants. Unemployment will be a thing of the past and will require Congress to pass laws to allow new laborers to come and work in the United States by the millions. I guarantee it just like president Nixon removed the gold standard from backing the dollar and backed it with confidence in the great American people.
8)     The drafting of the elderly will put to rest once and for all the problem of finding recruits for our armed forces since any man or woman who turn 65 years of age will be drafted.  They will be drafted into the army when they walk in the social security office to apply for benefits or they will be collected from the addresses on the envelopes that they applied for benefits from by federal marshals.  Our Congress will make sure to rubber stamp laws to impose sanctions on any nation, Canada or otherwise, that will grant refuge for any absconding rascals.
9)     The Veterans Administration will be shut down since all the individuals it is serving now will be in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, France and any nation that dares oppose your wise leadership.  The leadership that does not make mistakes and so foolproof that 59 million Americans voted for you in the latest landslide election.
10)  The housing crises for the poor in the country will be resolved as many of them will have inherited the homes of their elderly parents and grandparents.  Black and Latinos will be employed now since the booming service economy will require many more butlers, cooks, drivers and hotel maids with good tips.  The young people will be traveling so much spending their newly acquired wealth that housing might be a thing of the past. Just like our moral values.
Mr. President,
I hope I did not intrude on your privacy very much since I know that you do not like long burdensome readings on policy and administration.  However, I trust that your aides who were instructed not to allow the secret service look you in the eye, the day of the inauguration will brief you on this important document.  This policy that can be implemented through an executive order since Congress will not be required and since you are in your second term, you will not have to worry about votes of the elderly.  Even if the constitution is amended due to your great successes and you want to run again, with Diebold voting machines and Clear Channels radio stations to push your agenda to the public, who needs campaigning and polls anymore. Who needs elections to that matter.  The Jewish vote will not be necessary or influential any more since most of the elderly in Florida and California are Jewish and will be happily defending our great nation in Iraq.
God bless George Bush, the great president of the United Stats. God bless his wise leadership and may he live to serve us 12 more years. Hail to the Chief.

A Letter to Pope Benedict
To the Editor:

Pope Benedict XVI suffers from a serious case of amnesia.

I read with disgust the statement by the old man residing in Rome known to the Christian world as Pope Benedict XVI.Apparently he had mentioned this week in a speech that Islam and Muslims have a tendency for violence and that Islam promotes � holy wars.�It is amazing how this man forgot that for 34 days the Arabs living in Lebanon suffered for 34 days bombings by Jews using Christian made weapons from the United States to maim, kill and injure thousands of innocent civilians in Lebanon.Pope Benedict�s amnesia is blocking his brain cells from processing the images and audio sounds coming through the ether about the tens of thousands of Palestinian Arabs, Christians as well as Muslims crying for help from the criminal actins by the Jewish state of Israel. The Christians of Palestine are living in sheer poverty at the mercy of Jews armed with guns made by Christians in Europe and the United States to deprive them of their land, water and to subdue them into submission to their racist policies.
 It makes me wonder where Pope Benedict has been in the last four decades to see the bombings in Iraq, Serbia, Lebanon, Syria, Palestine against Arabs and Muslims whose only crime that they sit on the most prized peace of real estate the God created.The Arabs and the Muslims are the victims of mass murder being committed by Christians and Jews in the name of God and the Bible, old as well as new.Should I remind the Pope here of the mass murders committed in the name of Jesus for decades by the Crusades.Pope Benedict should stick to doing what he and the Vatican does well.Collect donations and accumulate wealth and protect buildings in the Holy Land that they can use to raise even more money.This world of ours has no shame and neither does Pope Benedict.

To George Will, Who needs to be " DeNazified?"
I have to admit Mr. Will that when I used to see your face in newspapers next to your articles or on television speaking to the public I used to think to myself: “ Man, this guy looks dumb.”. However, after hearing your words today you clarified my thoughts that I used to have about thinking that you are dumb. Mr. Will now I know that you are dumb. Read, travel to Palestine and see for yourself and then write and speak or forever shut the hell up. Riad Hamad Austin, Texas

Scooter Libby where have you been.. Gordon Liddy will lead you to ....
If you believe that the movie that is being played now in front of you will lead to the removal of these war criminals I have a proposal for you. The London bridge is up for sale and I will make a good deal for you. If you do not have the money, and you are still want to go to sleep and dream about this taking place, please do me a favor. Do what my mother used to tell me before I went to sleep: “ Riad, go pee before you sleep..you might have a bad dream and wet your bed.” Good night and good luck Riad Hamad

Letter to George on Iraq
George, I do no believe you. No body believes you. My cat does not believe you. The only one that believes you is that idiot you see every morning when you brush your teeth before you go out to the world and open your mouth with lies. If you do not know whom I am talking about go to the mirror now and look. Look hard George.

Beyond the ABC
Ask a deaf person how many times sign language saved his/her life or helped them order a meal or express love and appreciation. Better yet, ask yourself how many times you felt like getting out of the car and chasing that S.O.B because he/she gave you that old sign with the middle finger and without uttering a single word.
