While at work, there are days when I spend constructively spend time online surfing for useless information. During one of these productive sessions I came across this funny article that I thought of sharing..
Iraqi Government Offers To Send U.S. Army National Guard To Help U.S. With Hurricane
(Baghdad, Iraq) Today, in show of unity and solidarity with the people of the United States, the government of Iraq offered to send the United States Army National Guard to Louisiana in order to help with Hurricane Gustav.
“We Iraqis see what’s happening, and we want to help you, the American people, the same way you helped us,” said Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. “So please feel free to you take your own troops to help your country…they’re standing by.”
U.S. President George W. Bush was grateful for the Prime Minister’s offer. “I am touched that he is willing to send our troops over here to help us on our dime….That is what I call true leadership.”
Republican presidential hopeful John McCain agreed with 90% of what Bush said and added that Iraq’s offer meant that the surge has worked. “Listen my friends, we have won the war in Iraq and now thanks to the government of Iraq for lending us our own troops, we will defeat the Al Qaeda of Mother Nature, Gustav.”
McCain added that the nation was lucky the Army National Guard was in Iraq and not Afghanistan like his presidential rival, Barack Obama, would have it. “What a mess that would be. Afghanistan is like, really far away.”
“You bet your ass!” exclaimed Sarah Palin, the freshly scrubbed Republican vice presidential nominee. “My dad…I mean, my future president John McCain is right. Obama is bad. Maliki is good.”
Barack Obama, the Democratic presidential nominee, took a moment to respond while campaigning in Pennsylvania. “Tell me please, how the hell is this election even close? Am I right?”
