Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect plan... what we need now is for our UN Ambassador to stand up and repeat this message.

Robin Williams' plan... (Hard to argue with this logic!)

   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 will apologize to the world for our "interference" in their affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo, Noriega, Milosovich 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 and the Phillippines. They don't want us there. We would station troops at our borders. No one sneaking through holes in the fence.

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 who or where they are. France would welcome them.

4. All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 days unless given a special permit. No one from a terrorist nation would 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 "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 will make a strong effort to become self -sufficient energy wise. This will include developing non-polluting sources of energy but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while.

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 is stolen or given to the army. The people who 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. All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one can call us "Ugly Americans" any longer.

Now, ain't that a winner of a plan.

"The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and she's yelling, 'You want a piece of me?'"

 

Did that really come from Robin Williams?

I agree completely.

4x4

 

roger that...must help yourself before you can successfully help others. :

We may get spread so thin that we cannot protect our own land! > >

 

I don't think that was the intent of the message. I think he was saying that since all of these people seem to dislike us being in their countries, then we should pull in all of our boundaries and quit being so helpful. Just take care of our own and let them sort out their problems.

 

Yes...But #2,3,&4 are important...If china got a wild hair...ahem....and had little or no back up from the other asian countries, we could be in trouble...IF they had back up, we would have a serious problem! You must appreciate the size of the standing armies these countries have...just something to think about is all....

 

I guess....

 

Yes, and if that happened I think we may have to resort to really heavy hardware to get the job done ;D...but once thtat card is played, North Korea will be on it like a bad suit...could get ugly fast......

We'd just have to take them all out at once.

 

Ummm...YES... ;D

 

Near the bottom of the page below, they mention that someone tacked a genuine Robin Williams quote on at some point as an 11th item, but the bulk of this is not attributable to him.

Sorry for the misrepresentation, I was just passing along some email and took it for granted. Guess the old analogy applies, believe nothing that you hear and only half of what you see!!!!
