The two
ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right
for us all, so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it
up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.
Here is a draft separation agreement - proposed by a conservative:
--We don't like
redistributive taxes so you can keep them.
--You are welcome
to the liberal judges and the ACLU.
--Since you hate
guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.
--We'll take the
nasty, smelly oil industry and the coal mines, and you can go with wind, solar
and biodiesel.
--You can keep
Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell. You are, however, responsible for
finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them.
--We'll keep
capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall
Street.
--You can have
your beloved lifelong welfare dwellers, food stamps, homeless, homeboys,
hippies, druggies and illegal aliens.
--We'll keep the
hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks.
--We'll keep Bill
O
' Reilly, and Bibles
and give you NBC and Hollywood .
--You can make
nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer
places that threaten us.
--You can have the
peaceniks and war protesters.
-- When our allies or
our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.
--We'll keep our
Judeo-Christian values.
--You are welcome
to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, political correctness and Shirley McClain. You
can also have the U.N. but we will no longer be paying the bill.
--We'll keep the
SUV's, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Volt and
Leaf you can find.
--You can give
everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors.
--We'll keep
"The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "The National Anthem."
--I'm sure you'll
be happy to substitute "Imagine", "I'd Like to Teach the World
to Sing", "Kum Ba Ya" or "We Are the World".
--We'll practice
trickle-down economics and you can continue to give trickle up poverty your
best shot.
--Since it often
so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.
Would you agree to
this? If so, please pass it along to other like-minded liberal and conservative
patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly
parting, I'll bet you might think about which one of us will need whose help in
15 years.
Sincerely,
John J. Wall
Law Student and an
American
P.S. Also, please
take Ted Turner, Sean Penn, Martin & Charlie Sheen, Barbara Streisand, (
Hanoi ) Jane Fonda with you.
P.S.S. And you
won't have to press 1 for English when you call our country.
