SPEECHES, NOT BULLETS, WILL WIN IRAQ
Study: Victory Depends on More Patriotic Addresses
(Washington) According to the results of a study conducted by the nonpartisan Heritage Foundation any minor setbacks suffered by the US in our glorious liberation of Iraq were not the cause of poor planning or unexpected resistance, but rather the inability of the non-Republican American to grasp how vital our mission is. Always open to advice from outsiders, the White House has embraced this finding, and as always, has formulated a plan to address this oversight that will, of course, be flawlessly executed. The plan? More speeches! Not just any speeches, of course, but addresses crafted and spoken by America’s greatest orator, President Bush.
In advance of the President’s historic Monday address, White House spokesman Scott McClellan educated the hippies of the press corps as to why the President must constantly remind the American people that all is going according to plan in Iraq. “Oftentimes the progress that is being made doesn't get as much attention as the dramatic and horrific images of violence that people see on their TV screens.*” To counter this liberal bias in the media, President Bush will (as is his Constitutional right) commandeer the nation’s airwaves for government-approved broadcasts until further notice. In an unrelated event, Fox reported a 135-fold increase in its’ stock, and announced that it will soon hire another 5,000 patriotic journalists to meet the demand for fair-and-balanced news about our imminent victory over the freedom-haters.
On Sunday, the President offered a glimpse into the meat and potatoes of his planned addresses. The themes will include, ‘There is No Civil War,’ ‘Did You Not See the Purple Fingers?’ and ‘Look at this Shiny Object.’ (Ed. Note: The last of these themes is currently being developed as a fall Fox Network reality show.) While the President declined to provide specifics, he did indicate that his speeches will make prominent and exciting new use of the words freedom, America, Islamo-fascism, victory, and ‘troops.’ The last term will have the greatest emphasis, as liberals will be asked once and for all to stop hating them.
“Sure, everything’s going swell in Iraq, but this is no time to rest on our laurels,” accurately assessed Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld. “I applaud the President taking on the thankless task of educating the hippies about our successes over there. Who knows? With that silver tongue of his, he might even convince a few to enlist. Not that we need more troops, of course.”
