Bush says he wants a president, VP, prime minister, and other ministers..

[kentuck]

in about two weeks from now. Wow! This should be a challenge for even the Houdini turd. I heard him say that in a "news conference" today. I thought that sounded quite ambitious! However, it is only 6 weeks until the June 30 deadline he had initially set. The pressure is getting to him. Let see if we can help him out...

He can just make Negroponte the president, since he will already be set up for it. VP ? Hmmmm...Condi Rice can quit her present job and take that one....Or Cheney could do it and he would be close to Halliburton....Prime Minister.....let's see...who does he owe a favor?? George Tenet can resign his CIA post and be the new PM... Minister of Finance?....how about Ken Lay? They should be ready to run the country in a couple of weeks, don't you think?

1. he wants prez/veep AND pm/mps?

so ... is it to be an american-style congressional system, or a british-style parliamentary system?

tough question. bush comes down unambiguously on the side of both.

2. USSC appoints them?

3. Why doesn't he just appoint a Viceroy for his new colony of

Iraq. Why not be honest about his intentions for a change?

4. Al Franken pointed out that the new leadership probably would like to have

time to 'get their ducks in a row.' Maybe more than just 5 weeks to plan taking over a sovereign nation. bush and his gang don't understand the concept of planning though - no need from their perspective - just turn it over and walk away.

5. Shouldn't be too hard to find. No experience necessary.

All they have to do is rubber stamp everything the US tells them. I dunno, maybe we'll let them do something, like be in charge of highway maintenance or something. Sure will be hard for these guys to get life insurance though.

6. Here's a great idea.

Let Bush resign here in the US and become the president over in Iraq. He can take his entire administration with him as long as he gets the hell out of office here. He will be so happy with all that oil. He can make Ken Lay the minister of oil. Cheney can run Haliburton from over there. He can have it.

8. WOW, that's the greatest idea I've heard in 3 1/2 years!!!

He could have his very own country, not have to worry about Dem. opposition, live in a palace (and piss off Saddam really bad), even his very own oil wells!

I think I'll send this suggestion to Karl tomorrow, he can even go along!

10. That is a great idea !

Since he knows his time is limited here in the US, he might just take you up on it. :)

11. Hi ncteechur!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

7. they could round up some bums in the park to do it

Nothing will really change. Bush and executioners will still be in charge of NeverLand.

Whoever they get to do the job will A have no power and B have a limited lifespan. The Dauphin is just praying he can hold the collapse off until the election or Armageddon, whichever comes first.

9. I have a feeling the problem is there are no applicants for the jobs.

Who in their right mind would want anything to do with this mess ? Average life expectancy of the entire bunch would be quite low.

12. Hey, we want that too!!

Can we get it?
