Today's Topic: If I Were President, I Would.....?

With the election going on today, we decided to make each of you "President" for a day. Now that you are ruling the country--what would you do? Would you give everyone Friday's off? Would you get rid of the income tax? What would you do?

 

~ President (Insert Your Name) ~


Scenario

Before you sit down and do this, please GO VOTE!

America needs you. You have been made President for a day because the current one is going fishing on the new Mars settlement.

If I Were President, I Would......

Ban Taxes?
Remove The Speed Limit?
Repeal the Beer Tax? (Have to get a plug in for Burkaman 4 President!)

What would you do?

We want to know!!

 

Now it's your turn to share. What would you do as President?

If I were president I'd declare tomorrow National Chocolate Day and make sure that calories/carbs/fat were three words banned from the English language for a minimum of 24 hours. How's that, Diva?????

If I were President, I'd Daidle deedle daidle
Daidle daidle deedle daidle dum...

Oh, wait, you said PRESIDENT.

I'd deliver the ol' pocket veto at least a few times that day...if you know what I mean.

Then I'd nuke North Korea. F `em. Let's get it over with.

Then I'd drop regular old fashioned Daisy Cutters and MOABs on Iran's nuke site. (after telling Israel to go for it).

Then I'd napalm the Eiffel Tower. Accidentally. And invade France. Accidentally. And appoint Jerry Lewis governor-generale (I hear he's in good with the French people).

If I was the President, I will make it mandatory for companies to give 1-month vacations to all their employees and to use it however they wish. If that doesn't increase productivity, I don't know what else will.

Just for laughs:

I want to thank all of you!

To all my friends and family, Thank you for making me safe, secure,

blessed, and wealthy by sending me your damn chain letters over the last year.



Because of your concern:


* I no longer drink Coca Cola because it can remove toilet stains.

* I no longer drink Pepsi or Dr Pepper since the people who make these products are atheists who refuse to put "Under God" on their cans.

* I no longer drink anything out of a can because I will get sick from the rat feces and urine.

* I no longer use Saran wrap in the microwave because it causes cancer.

* I no longer go to movies because I could sit on a needle infected with AIDS.

* I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could get pricked with a needle infected with AIDS.

* I no longer use cancer causing deodorants even though I smell like a wet dog on a hot day.

* I no longer go to shopping malls because someone will drug me with a perfume sample and try to rob me.

* I no longer receive packages from UPS or FedEx since they are actually Al Qaida in disguise.

* I no longer shop at Target since they are French and don't support our American troops.


* I no longer answer the phone because someone will ask me to dial a stupid number for which I will get the phone bill from hell with calls to Uganda, Singapore, and Uzbekistan.

* I no longer eat pre-packaged foods because the estrogens they contain will turn me gay.

* I no longer eat KFC because their chickens are actually horrible
mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.

* I no longer look at the opposite sex because they will take my kidneys and leave me taking a nap in a bathtub full of ice.

* I no longer have a cell phone -- but that will change once I receive my new Ericcson phone..

* I no longer have any sneakers -- but that will change once I receive my free replacement pair from Nike.

* I no longer buy expensive cookies from Neiman Marcus since I now have their recipe.

* I no longer worry about my soul because I have 363,214 angels looking out for me.

* I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl about to die in the hospital for the 1,000,000,000th time.

* I no longer have any money but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me since I participated in their special e-mail program. I want to thank all of you soooooooo much!! for looking out for me!

Now if you DON'T send this e-mail to at least 1200 people in the next 60 seconds a large bird with diarrhea will crap on your head at 5:00 pm this afternoon.

Good job, darkwing, good job. Sean Hannity and Matt Drudge were just talking about the panhandle, and voter intimidation and calls telling people that their voting places had changed. And Matt said the alphabetnetworks are saying that the exit polls have sKerry winning. The very first polls are closing at this minute, but the networks know already. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
