Bush boldly took charge, suspending the presidential elections, declaring martial law.<\/p>\n<p>By immediately rounding up all the godless heathen terrorists \u2013 Muslims, Buddhists, Hindus, homosexuals, anarchists, liberals and the like \u2013 the United States is now finally enjoying the peace and safety we deserve.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nHis move to transport and concentrate all these \u201cundesirables\u201d in the Terrorist Reservation in South Dakota is a stroke of genius. It\u2019s a measure of his great humanity, that he commuted the death sentences of millions of these detainees and instead allows them to live out their lives unfettered on the Reservation. Requiring the Reservation to be self-sustaining was another stroke of genius \u2013 and saves the country the cost of feeding and clothing the un-godly terrorists.<\/p>\n<p>Similarly, the purification of Iran with the neutron bombs was also a stroke of genius. By killing all the godless heathen terrorists and leaving the infrastructure intact, George Bush made it possible for American public to have cheap gasoline once again.<br \/>\nOur hats are off to George W, Bush!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Continuing coverage:<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorge W.
