Operation Steel Gazelle: A Smart, Multi-Slide Plan For Toughening American Security with Smartness
IowaHawk ^ | 3/31/06 | IowaHawk

Posted on 03/31/2006 2:20:47 PM PST by Jean S

Senator Harry Reid (D-NV)
Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA)

HARRY: Hello, I'm Harry Reid, leader of the Democrats in the United States Senate.

NANCY: And me Nancy Pelosi.

HARRY: Like millions of patriotic Americans, Nancy and I, along with our Democratic colleagues in Congress, are concerned about our rapidly deteriorating national security situation. Nearly five years after the tragic events of 9/11, not only is our country wracked by record economic misery, low teacher salaries, expensive senior prescriptions, and widespread leprosy, it also remains at risk for illegal attacks from the terrorist Osama bin Laden. Meanwhile, the Bush administration has us mired in a disastrous unrelated civil war in Iraq, consuming billions of your taxpayer dollars that could be spent on preserving Social Security and community health care block grants for America's starving teachers.

NANCY: We can better do!

HARRY: You bet we can, Nancy. That's why we've purchase space on America's abandoned and neglected websites to present the Democratic vision for a smart, yet tough new national security concept that makes a clean break with the discredited and dangerous policies of this administration. As you can see by the American flags behind us, this is a smart and tough new approach, embodied in a comprehensive plan that was developed by some of America's foremost military minds: Madeleine Albright, Sandy Berger, Markos Zuniga, and former General Wesley Clarke -- the celebrated "Falcon of the Balkans." We call our plan "Operation Steel Gazelle" -- strong and tough like steel, but smart and agile like the gazelle, as it nimbly eludes its hungry predators.

NANCY: Tell, us more Harry.

It's been said by a brighter person than me, but it bears repeating:

The state of the democrat party at this moment in time is so bizarre that writing effective satire is next to impossible.

Have you read the *real* dim Plan?

I was having trouble figuring out which made more sense; then I realized that having Pelosi and Reid doing a joint presentatation must be the real.....OH, EXCREMENT!

LOL. Took me a few paragraphs that this was a send up of the Democrats worthy of Scrappleface.

Are you kidding me? ScrappleFace is not worthy of IowaHawk. He's been a favorite around here for years.

Pardon my faux pas. I regularly read Scrappleface postings here at Free Republic. This is the first Iowahawk posting I have come across. Very funny, I'll be reading more...

Thanks for posting it.

The satire of the DEMS is more sane than the real thing.
