10. Tired of our fine young men and women dying in boring countries like Iraq and Afghanistan. That’s so beginning of the decade.
9. We KNOW they’re developing nukes, that’s more than we knew about Iraq.
8. Ahmadinejad just pisses me off with his cheap suits and half a beard. Either grow a real beard and dress like the Mullah you are, or get some Armani for Allah’s sake.
7. At least there have been student demonstrations in the past decade calling for democracy, they may actually be ready for it.
6. We can’t let Israel have all the fun.
5. They keep telling me we invaded Iraq for the oil and yet I’m paying more at the pump than I was before the invasion. Obviously we need more oil.
4. It would annoy the living shit out of France, Russia and China. I love when that happens.
3. Bush hasn’t been compared to Hitler all week.
2. I’m tired of paying two bucks a pound for pistachios at the commissary.
1. The way things are goin’, we’re not going to see another right wing warmonger of a President until at least 2017. Two years people, the clock’s ticking.
Add your own in the comments, it’s amazing how many you can think of without really trying.

Why the hell would you trust a bunch of damned liberals?

I’d rather we do it now, rather than wait ’til something bad happens. Cause only a complete moron thinks we aren’t gonna have to sooner or later.

Unfortunatly Joe there isn’t a shortage of complete morons in the world.
11. It’s been three years since we got to see Geraldo Rivera wear body armor and a Kevlar. No one can pull that ensemble off like Geraldo can.

12. The Iranian Mullacracy hasn’t paid the bill for the ‘79 US Embassy Hostage taking. Some of us have long memories. Now due with interest.

Well, as long as we were in the neighborhood, we might as well stop by.
(And actually, I am still pretty pissed-off about that embassy thingy, too.
Thank you, Jimmy Carter, until your administration, Warren G. Harding took the cake as Worst US President Ever (20th Century Division)

Make them change their name back to Persia, no more “Iran I mean Iraq” confusion.

I think its time to fulfil that old grade school saying (from the ’60s no less): “IRAQ then IRAN”
Man, I must be really showing my age to come up with that cr*p………

13. People are starting to remember that there’s a bloke out there called Bin Laden who actually attacked the USA and killed thousands of people. Quick - get pictures of planes taking off from aircraft carriers onto CNN! And see if you can get someone to fire a small rocket at a carrier so we can get a clip of a Phalanx firing while you’re at it. That’ll distract everyone until 2008’s over and done with.
14. Annoying France is always good, but you could also rechristen oil, vinegar and dijon mustard “Freedom Dressing” so the rest of the world could piss themselves laughing at your (ahem) “distinguished” legislature again. That was great.
15. ESPN could run a competition to nominate which NFL player you’d like to see killed by friendly fire then be the subject of a cover up. I don’t mind as long as it’s not William Perry; he was cool.
Ach, go for it. Nothing will surprise anyone any more and it’ll be better fun watching as a spectator sport than wondering how many British troops the Americans have accidentally killed this week (the Iraqis have edged ahead, by the way).
You have to feel sorry for Carter. He was indeed the worst US president for quite some time, but it’s starting to look like Borg vs Federer in the shit president Grand Slam…Bush has just got so many more shit shots that being economically incompetent and making an arse of a hostage situation isn’t cutting it any more.

16. So every person with Bush Derangement Syndrome can lose what little self control they have left.
Just think what absurd things we’d hear from The Dixie Chicks.
