How To Make The War More Sensitive

John Kerry actually said this today:

“I believe I can fight a more effective, more thoughtful, more strategic, more proactive, more sensitive war on terror that reaches out to other nations and brings them to our side and lives up to American values in history.“

What the hell is a more “sensitive” war on terror, you ask? I was wondering the same thing. I have a few ideas:

1. No more of those pesky bomb thingys. They’re loud, and they make all the neighborhood dogs bark, which really annoys the neighbors.

2. All guns will now shoot bullets made from ice cream.

3. Every Iraqi television network will be replaced by the Lifetime Network.

4. The hosts of Trading Spaces will immediately be deployed to Iraq to begin doing their show in Baghdad.

5. Trading Spaces will be added to the Lifetime Network lineup.

6. To help out the Trading Spaces team, Martha Stewart will be shipped to Iraq as well. Her time there will count as part of her community service.

7. Martha Stewart is still a bitch, so that last one might backfire.

8. The Navy Seals will be offering free swimming lessons to anyone who wants to sign up.

Not one to be outmisspoken (for those of you keeping up with Bushisms, that wasn't one of them. I made that up, but it's kind of like "misunderestimated") President Bush today said today that his administration would never stop looking for ways to harm the United States.

    Hmmm... to answer what I suspect you may have thought was a rhetorical question... how do you make a war on terror more "sensitive"...

    how about targetting those you have reason to believe have been working against you, rather than dropping bombs on people who live quite close people you suspect might have plans to convert their oil reserves into Euros?

    how about not treating all American citizens overseas as immedeatly suspect (did you know you're not allowed to renew your American credit card if you've chosen to live in an overseas country?), and all citizens of other nations as probably almost certain to be up to no good?

    That would be a start. In short: stop pissing people off and converting friends into people who have grudges.

    BTW: Your Trading Spaces gag? One of the top rated shows on the rejuvenated Iraqi TV service is a home makeover show, showing families who've been bombed out of their dwellings how to fix it up.

    Hey Evilwhiteguy, Here are a few more
    suggestions that may or may not help:

    1)Install those Four for a $1.00 Photo
    Booths in all Iraqi prisons so that they
    can take their own sexually degrading
    photos.

    2)Re-name the country "Halliburtonia".

    3)Tell Moqtada Al-sadr if he does not
    start behaving better we will have to
    assign a permanent seating chart.

    4)Give Iraq it's own Email address such
    as: iraq@uspentagon.gov

    5)Read all suspected insurgents the
    Miranda act and let them have a lawyer
    present before we throw them into rivers
    to drown.

    6)Mega-Lotto worth $Millions for person
    who correctly guesses date that the US
    puppet regime is destroyed.

    and finally:

    7)Leave a couple cheap roses,a note that
    says we promise to call later and just
    GET THE FUCK OUT OF IRAQ NOW!!!

    other recommendations:

    * Lay siege to Najaf by playing Toby Keith CDs over loudspeakers at 8,000 decibels 24/7.

    * Appoint Lynndie England as Ambassador to Iraq.

    * Tell the ATF that Al-Sadr's compound has women, kids, bibles, guns, and a bad rock band. Suggest they visit.

    Thank you very much,Hal. I try to stay
    out of things political as a rule.There
    are so many others around BC much more
    astute in these matters that I feel like
    a putz when I try to jump into the fray.

    Besides, I'm more interested in fishing
    this time of year.

    Shark, you forgot that after the ATF botches the job, we'll have to send in the FBI hostage incineration team.

    at Saxton; good stuff!
    Ya inspired me.
    Anyway, welcome home;
    we missed
    ya... and your premature
    hard-return line breaks.

    Shark,Mucho Gracias senor.Honestly,man.
    I am basically pretty apathetic when it
    comes to Politics.Also a lousy debater.
    But I'm a smartass at heart & more than
    just a little disgusted with what has
    become of my country. I tried to convey
    that disgust through a bit of humor and
    if you and Mr Pawluk actually liked! it
    then I guess I've made my point. Again,
    thanks alot Shark.

    * start a program to plant pansies on the mass graves of Saddam's opposition

    * Kerry donates daughters as a harem for Saudi terrorist financiers to show good will

    * Heinz donates loose sofa change to children of gassed Kurds so they can tour Auschwitz.

    * Kerry relocates Oval Office to Sear's Tower to show confidence in new terrorist czar.

    * Annex Canada so Al Qaeda members embedded in the US can get cheaper drugs.

    * Only award Purple Hearts for self-inflicted wounds
