My mom sent me this in an email yesterday and seems to fit.

This is attributed to Bill Cosby:

I HAVE DECIDED TO BECOME A WRITE-IN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT IN THE YEAR 2012.
HERE IS MY PLATFORM:


(1). Any use of the phrase: 'Press 1 for English' is immediately BANNED!!! English is the official language; speak it or wait outside of our borders until you can.

(2). We will immediately go into a two year isolationist attitude in order to straighten out the greedy big business posture in this country. America will allow NO imports, and we'll do no exports. We will use the 'Wal-Mart 's policy,
'If we ain't got it, you don't need it.' We'll make it here and sell it here!


(3). When imports are allowed, there will be a 100% import tax on it coming in here.


(4). All retired military personnel will be required to man one of the many observation towers located on the southern border of the United States (six month tour). They will be under strict orders not to fire on SOUTH BOUND aliens.


(5). Social Security will immediately return to its original state. If you didn't put nuttin in, you AIN'T getting nuttin out. Neither the President nor any other politician will be able to touch it.


(6). Welfare. -- Checks will be handed out on Fridays, at the end of the 40 hour school week, the successful completion of a urinalysis test for drugs, and passing grades.


(7). Professional Athletes -- Steroids? The FIRST time you check positive you're banned from sports ... for life.


(8). Crime -- We will adopt the Turkish method, i.e., the first time you steal, you lose your right hand. There is no more 'life sentences'. If convicted of murder, you will be put to death by the same method you chose for the victim you killed: gun, knife, strangulation, etc.

(9). One export of ours will be allowed: wheat; because the world needs to eat. However, a bushel of wheat will be the EXACT price of a barrel of oil.

(10). All foreign aid, using American taxpayer money, will immediately cease and the saved money will help to pay off the national debt and, ultimately, lower taxes. When disasters occur around the world, we'll ask The American People if they want to donate to a disaster fund, and each citizen can make the decision as to whether, or not, it's a worthy cause.


(11). The Pledge of Allegiance will be said EVERY day at school and every day in CONGRESS.


(12). The National Anthem will be played at all appropriate ceremonies, sporting events, outings, etc.


My apology is offered if I've stepped on anyone's toes .... nevertheless.....


GOD BLESS AMERICA !







Sincerely, Bill Cosby
 
That's just the best idea I've ever heard. Too bad we can't insist on it. We can only vote for one guy, then we have no more say in what he does. The media will tell us what our opinion is.
 
"They say jump you say how high" LOL

The dumbing down of america is another thing that pisses me off.
These kids coming out of high school are getting stupider by the day, statistically.

Who's gonna be the brains of this country when I'm old and rolexy?

I'd elaborate, but the best thing to do is watch every George Carlin bit on youtube.:first_place:

That is the truth!

And I'm writing Bill in the next election!
Here is an e-mail I got a while back. Goes with #6

Like most folks in this country, I have a job. I work, they pay me. I pay my taxes and the government distributes my taxes as it sees fit. In order to get that paycheck in my case, I am required to pass a random urine test (with which I have no problem). What I do have a problem with is the distribution of my taxes to people who don't have to pass a urine test.

So, here is my Question: Shouldn't one have to pass a urine test to get a welfare check because I have to pass one to earn it for them? Please understand, I have no problem with helping people get back on their feet. I do, on the other hand, have a problem with helping someone sitting on their ass - doing drugs, while I work. . . . Can you imagine how much money each state would save if people had to pass a urine test to get a public assistance check? I guess we could title that program, 'Urine or You're Out'.

Good stuff!! Very good stuff....:first_place:
 
digger, that's DEAD on. We, the taxpayers give them money to spend on drugs. I TOTALLY agree with the mandatory urine test if they want welfare.
 
I actually got into a discussion on another forum, probably about two years ago, regarding the urine testing of welfare and unemployment recipients. There is actually a few people who strongly defend the right to do drugs on state aid. Supposedly, these people actually work, and are not using these benefits.
 
Yeah, righhhhtttt. I don't think it should be any different for the people on welfare and/or state aid to do drug testing like our troops in the military have to. When I was in the army, we would have no notice call outs and be required to do a 100% drug screening.

I agree that our taxes shouldn't be buying their drugs. If they want to do 'em let 'em do it like all the other druggies and steal for it.
 
why do they send a 60 foot ladder truck when iam having a hart attach?
 
Incase you're upstairs? Makes sense I guess.
