MAJOR REVERSAL! GEORGE BUSH ELECTED PRESIDENT OF IRAQ!


BAGHDAD—In a vast outpouring of gratitude to the man they call "Our Great Savior From The West," the people of Iraq flooded the polls during yesterday's first free elections, voting overwhelmingly for President George W. Bush as their first democratically elected leader.

Bush, who spent nearly half a trillion dollars of U.S. taxpayer money on his campaign, received a concession call from Abu Musaiya at 11:30 EST last night.

After the Bush landslide was announced on Al-Jazeera, ecstatic crowds chanted in the streets throughout the recently liberated nation: "Hail George Bush, the president of Iraq!"

"May Allah bless him and his children to the seventh generation!" shouted free Iraqi citizen Abdullah al-Hallasid, firing his gun into the air repeatedly and injuring seven U.S. soldiers. "At last, we are free!"

4. Well Yeah!!!
He already acts like he is president of Iraq instead of president of the USA. Basic humanitarian cuts to every human service, to education, to health care for children and most of the citizens of the USA..our disaster areas left without more than basic rebuilding asst..and on and on...and yet bushco brags about the rebuilding of Iraq, the schools, the soccer fields, the hospitals..blah, blah...if is clear what country he really provides for with our tax dollars...so..well, Yeah!

2. Good. Let him clean up his own mess for once in his life.
When he's finally impeached and removed from office, his punishment should be making him permanant Ambassador to Iraq, with his only job being stabilizing the country. And Daddy & Co.can't help him one iota.

3. After the swearing-in ceremony, the new President
immediately retired to his ranch in Crawdad (in the southern region of Iraq) for his
first vacation so that he could begin the process of clearing excess brush from the country.

6. If they made him president of Iraq
how would it be any different than life under Saddam?
