"NO!"
5-10-2005 | B4Ranch

Is there anyone here who cannot pronounce the word "No"?

I rather doubt there is. Ladies are generally familiar with it. "Sweetheart, may I kiss you goodnight", she replied, "No!"

Men have used it to strangers many times. "Sir, may I have one of your cigarettes and borrow a dollar?" He replied, "No."

This is a word we have all heard since we were tiny children, and one we have all said, probably too many times to our kids.

Question: Do you have a problem speaking this word to persons of authority? Have you ever told a police officer, "No, you may not search my home or car without a currently dated warrant.

Have you ever told your boss at work, "No, I cannot work overtime this weekend. We have prepaid reservations and my family is expecting that we use them. Sorry, Boss, maybe next time."

May I suggest that we all write a very short letter to our officials, local, state and federal. Do you have a 37 cent stamp? We may gather quite a bit of attention using this one word. Imagine, just one word could become a rallying cry for America's patriots and stop our country from declining again. "NO!"

Perhaps they may find it amusing but I think if they receive a few thousand of these "NO!" letters, someone in their office is going to awaken and ask what are the voters saying "NO!" about?

Be sure to include your name, address and phone number. Should they become curious enough to perhaps wonder if we are saying "NO!" to their re-election or "NO!" to contributing to the party funds, they might just give us a call and ask what "NO!" means.

That will be our opportunity to tell them we want them to start using this word much more often. Even a politician should know this word. It is easily pronounced, easily spelt, "NO!". What does it mean? Just what it says, "NO!"

"NO!" to open borders and illegal aliens in America.
"NO!" to all public benefits for the illegal aliens in America.
"NO!" to tax increases.
"NO!" to re-election if you don't get off your ass and start doing your job.
"NO!" to larger government.
"NO!" to CAFTA.
"NO!" to increasing the national debt!

Illegals should be able to work and stay in America unmolested by ICE agents.
"NO!" No reason to go off into a long spiel. We've heard it before. "NO!"

"I'm trying to help America with my new plans to bring immigrants into the work force."

"NO!" You are not.

"Immigrants should be allowed instate college prices."

"NO!" They are not better than American citizens, so "NO!"

You fill in the rest with your thoughts.

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

"NO!"

I like the extra bolding you've used. It gives the word a much more emphatic tone. ;)

The following two points:

* "NO!" to open borders and illegal aliens in America.

and

* "NO!" to tax increases.

Are mutually contradictory.

You're going to need to hire a lot more federal employees to do the former. They have to be paid.

Damn Skippy !

VADER 2008

Based on the evidence provided by the films, we can extrapolate the benefits of a Vader Presidency:

Total Commitment in the War on Terror - we can presume from the destruction of Alderaan, and the elimination of the Rebel base on Hoth, that Lord Vader would take an aggressive approach to terrorists. Terrorist bases would be totally destroyed, and the military might get to use those really cool Imperial walkers in the process. Captured terrorists could expect to have their veins shot up with truth serum by sinister looking droids. And no matter where Osama was hiding, Lord Vader could use the power of the Force to strangle him to death.

Smaller Government - at the beginning of Episode IV, we are informed that the Emperor has taken the bold step of eliminating the Senate, and thus a layer of expensive bureaucrats. Some people would pay real money to see the present United States Senate disbanded as blithely. Reduced Taxation - no one in the Galactic Empire is filling out forms for an Interstellar IRS, so far as can be seen. Besides, given Lord Vader's impatience in getting a Death Star built, he'd likely be so irritated by tax officers' incompetence, he'd strangle the lot.

Ethical Use of Biotechnology - biotechnology in a Vader administration would only likely be used to produce clone warriors rather than create replacement body parts: indeed, Lord Vader didn't create a clone of himself so that he could have his body parts replaced, thus indicating a higher level of ethics about cloning than has hitherto been seen from many scientists.

Strong Defence - the clone warriors would solve the problem of military recruitment, and furthermore, "Star Wars" research wouldn't stop until they'd developed a weapon to blow up a planet. As such, it's unlikely Middle Eastern terrorists would be inclined to mess with a President Vader.

It is clear that the benefits of a Vader Presidency outweigh the occasional "hostile takeover". It is also clear that few people in their right mind want to be President, as such, it may be time to draft someone who doesn't exist at all.

I prefer Palpatine over Vader.

Why choose the LESSER of two evils?

Obviously some folks have more trouble with the word "No!" than others
