In today's installment of What The F**k?, we examine the truly insane rant found within the illogical writings of Conquering the Drawbacks of Democracy by Philip Atkinson of Family Security Matters.
Just to give you an idea of what we're dealing with here, please enjoy a shocking sample of the piece:
If President Bush copied Julius Caesar by ordering his army to empty Iraq of Arabs and repopulate the country with Americans, he would achieve immediate results: popularity with his military; enrichment of America by converting an Arabian Iraq into an American Iraq (therefore turning it from a liability to an asset); and boost American prestiege while terrifying American enemies.He could then follow Caesar's example and use his newfound popularity with the military to wield military power to become the first permanent president of America, and end the civil chaos caused by the continually squabbling Congress and the out-of-control Supreme Court.
President Bush can fail in his duty to himself, his country, and his God, by becoming “ex-president” Bush or he can become “President-for-Life” Bush: the conqueror of Iraq, who brings sense to the Congress and sanity to the Supreme Court. Then who would be able to stop Bush from emulating Augustus Caesar and becoming ruler of the world? For only an America united under one ruler has the power to save humanity from the threat of a new Dark Age wrought by terrorists armed with nuclear weapons.
Geez-um-crow, where do I begin?
An open letter to Philip Atkinson:
WHAT THE F**K?!?! Mr. Atkinson, you are proposing that George W. Bush, arguably one of (if not THE) most incompetent presidents in American history, should bomb, invade, and literally WIPE OUT all Arabic-speaking people in Iraq (we've already done two of those three things). Then, after the dust settles, you suggest that the United States government should re-populate the country with American citizens. All of this would be done in an effort to establish a "permanent presidency", a la the DEFUNCT Roman Empire (they called the president an Emperor). You know, it is a defunct empire for a reason. You should read up on Roman history pal, it usually ends pretty badly for the emperor...
But I digress...
Look here Mr. Atkinson, your suggestion of ridding our country of the "civil chaos caused by the continually squabbling Congress" is simply disturbing. Oh, it's not that description that is disturbing to me, rather it is the idea that Americans would want to get rid of the Congress (and Supreme Court too). Granted, I get just as frustrated by politicians and their bureaucratic haggling with one and other - BUT - this country was founded upon thought provoking debate, and some squabbling too, I'm sure.
What? You think that the ORIGINAL George W. and his cronies didn't argue a little bit when they were hashing out the Constitution during their time in the Continental Congress? Of course they did. Again, I refer you to reading some history texts.
Next up, your suggestion that Bush could become the "conqueror of Iraq" is also frightening.
Conqueror? Really? These are not the words that should come from a patriotic American's mouth. By this rationale, you would likely have supported America's conquering of Japan after VJ Day, or Germany after VE Day. What about Vietnam? Oops, I'm sorry. Does speaking about a war that we did not win upset you?
To use the word "conquer" in such a flippant, nonchalant way sends a scary message to our enemies - and our friends - around the globe. You might as well be saying;
Hey Belgium, you are our friends and all, but we really like your chocolate and your waffles. So, if you keep looking at us that way, we are going to H-bomb your asses back to the stone age - and then re-populate your country with chocolate-loving-flag-waving-waffle-eating-Americans. U-S-A! U-S-A! U-S-A!
Is this what you are saying? It's no wonder that the world is unhappy with our foreign policy right now - we've got dunces like you Mr. Atkinson, piloting this flight we call neo-conservatism. Yikes.
And Bush brings "sanity to the Supreme Court"? Sanity? What you are saying sir is that the Supreme Court of the United States - the highest court in the land - is insane? Somebody needs to check your papers. You are the one who sounds a little imbalanced.
Then who would be able to stop Bush from emulating Augustus Caesar and becoming ruler of the world?
RULER OF THE WORLD?! I'll tell you who will stop that from happening bub; me. My friends. The American people. Nobody is going to let that happen. Ever.
Sincerely,
the Pajama Pundit
Postscript: Have you actually taken a look at George W. Bush's approval numbers lately? I'm just curious - since they are the lowest that any president has seen since Richard Nixon.

3. Holy shit, SERIOUSLY!
4. Do you find it interesting that, until around the time of Nixon, the Republican party was adamantly against increasing the power of the president. They were all over the Congress & following the will of the people. And, now, people in there party make heart attack serious arguments that George-Fucking-Dubya Bush should be the permanent ruler of the USA. The man can barely speak in complete sentences, and we should make him a fucking emperor?!?!?!?!
4. Holy shit. Seriously.
