Robin Williams' plan... (presumably)
"I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a
plan for peace. So, here's one plan."
1) "The US/Canada will apologize to the world for our
"interference" in their affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler,
Mussolini, Stalin, Tojo, Noriega, Milosevic, Hussein, and the rest of
those 'good ole boys', we will never "interfere" again.
2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world,
starting with Germany, South Korea, the Middle East, Afganistan and the
Philippines. They don't want us there. We would station troops at our
borders. No one allowed sneaking through holes in the fence either.
3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs
together and leave. We'll give them a free trip home. After 90 days,
the remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless
of whom or where they are. They're
illegal!!!
4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited
to 90 days unless given a special permit!!!! No one from a terrorist
nation will be allowed in. If you don't like it there, change it
yourself and don't hide here. Asylum would never be available to
anyone. We don't need any more cab drivers or 7-11 cashiers.
5) No foreign "students" over age 21. The older ones are the
bombers. If they don't attend classes, they get a "D" and it's back
home, baby!
6) The US/Canada will make a strong effort to become
self-sufficient energy wise. This will include developing non-polluting
sources of energy.
7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a
barrel for their oil. If they don't like it, we go some place else.
They can go somewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of
the wells filling up the storage sites would be enough.)
8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the
world, we will not "interfere." They can pray to Allah or whomever, for
seeds, rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides, most of what we
give them are stolen or given to the army. The people need it most get
very little, if anything.
9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island some place.
We don't need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the
building would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal
aliens.
10) The Language we speak is ENGLISH...Learn it...or LEAVE...

Well, I wouldn't. I do like most of what is in it... whoever thought of

What a load of horse shit. Neither one of those flaming liberals would
ever stake their political career on stating a solid position. Both
swing with the polls.
Go back to your moonshine and teenage photos.

Nah....I have my views but they are nothing that exudes much emotion

I disagree that Bush is soley responsible. I lay the bulk of blame on
the Muslim Arabs themselves, who seem to have no concept of democracy.
South Vietnam was the same way. We need to win in Iraq, then withdraw
from them and all else. Let China and Russia deal with North Korea.
Let them deal with Iran. Just let it be known that if a nuclear device
explodes in America, then total destruction will happen to the
originating source of Plutonium. M.A.D. revisited. Worked with the
Soviets.
One idea about oil. Do we really have to do business with our enemies?
Why not buy oil from Canada, Mexico, Britain, Nigeria, perhaps Saudi
Arabia, and leave the rest of them alone.
More random thoughts. Unemployment is less than 5%. Oil prices have
dropped for while. Inflation remains under control. Housing has
slowed, alleviating fears of a bubble burst. Stock ket is up.
Various terrorist plots averted, perps. arrested, within our borders
and away.
It's time to turn it over to the Dems......

That's probably the biggest reason why it never grew in those countries
in the first place...not the only reasons but a huge one. Just like all
cultures/people are not of the same religious leanings, not all countries
are or will ever be democracies. This administration is completely
ingnorant of other cultures and deep seated in their own arrogance and
ignorance. They also ignore history and forgot about Vietnam, the war,
the people and the outcome way too soon. If Iraq ever becomes a
"democracy," there is plenty of reason and evidence that it will then
evolve into probably what it was previously.

I think Buchanan's going to get his wish, in a way. After the damage
caused, and yet to be caused, by the horrendous foreign policy mistakes
of the Bush administration, I expect we'll be not an isolationist
country but an isolated one. America's place in the world is going to
be fundamentally and permanently changed as a result of the
catastrophes in Iraq and Afghanistan. George W. bush will leave office
in 2 yrs. having done more damage to this country than any president in
our history. And the rest of the world isn't going want to have

Look back even further to European Economic History; Midevil times. We
basically had feudalistic societies where religion and education were
the ruling class. The Have Nots didn't have it all too well - even on
a comparative basis to today.

Thanks for the clarification. Nonetheless, the content makes a lot of
sense. It wouldn't surprise me that America retreats into itself
within my lifetime, especially if terrorists get nukes while Europe,
Russia, and China sits idly by.
