Libya and points beyond

So now they're talking about intervening in Libya. Great. Cuz that's just what we need. Let's go get involved in the inner workings of yet another 3rd world hell-hole instead of trying to fix ourselves. I'm all for helping out the fellow man, I'm just not for helping out the dictator, terrorist, scuz-bucket, ass-wipe people at the sake of our own country! So here's my proposal.

Pull all of our troops out of the mid-east, creating a ginormous sucking sound as we do. Station them along our borders. We have somewhere around 1,500,000 active duty troops. Based on a border length between ourselves and Mexico and Canada of around 7500 miles, we could put one active duty troop every 26 feet. Now, I personally think this is a little overkill, since most active duty troops can hit a target at a distance of at least 100 yards. So you put one person every 50 yards. If you come over the border, they shoot you. Easy!

Then we go to Alaska, clear out about 1 square mile, and put oil rigs all over that place, all drilling horizontally into Russia and Canada. When OPEC starts whining and saying they are gonna boycot us, you let them. And when their satellite is passing overhead, you have every good American in the country stand on their front lawn and moon them!

Then, once we've solved those minor little problems, you go into the inner cities and ask everyone you see if they are a gang-banger. If they say yes, or have gang signs tattood all over them, you shoot em. And when their momma's cry on the news and say "but he wuz a good boy", slap the crap out of them. Good boy my ass!

Time to stop worrying about the rest of the world, and spend a little time worrying about our own problems. And I'm not blaming either one of the major parties. I'm blaming both! Stop acting like a bunch of hyperactive weazels hopped up on fermented peaches and start doing something about the state of this country!!!

And while you're at it, Can we please find a way to get Charlie Sheen back on every newscast in the free world? I'm having a heckuva time dealing with withdrawels. I just can't seem to get quite as excited about another Lindsey Lohan drama, or the fact that the economy is recovering, no it's not, yes it is, no it's not, yes it is, no it's not. I was going to try to keep up with whether we were in a recession, or coming out of a recession, but every day I see something that contradicts the day before, so instead, I've decided to just become a turtle. Live in my little shell. Cut-off from the outside world. Not having to worry about crap. Man, sounds like my kinda life!!!
