George “Big W†Bush vs. Mahmoud “Mad Dog†Ahmadinejad

WWF has just announced the Cage Match of the century…a no-holds-barred holy war smack-down. The combatants are two loose cannons who have each been pile-driven one time too often.

It’s a winner take all grudge match. The stakes are high. Each man is allowed three conventional weapons and there will be one WMD perched atop a 30 foot pole that can only be used if the match exceeds 15 rounds. The winner will assume his rightful position as either “God’s Right Hand Man†or “Allah’s Main Mullah.â€

Yes, you heard that right…it doesn’t get any better than this…it’s none other than George “Big W†Bush against that up and coming scrapper Mahmoud “Mad Dog†Ahmadinejad. Tickets go on sale Easter Sunday. Not available on pay-per-view. Seating is limited and United Nations Security Council nations will have first choice on floor seating.

Don’t miss this one…when it’s over there will finally be one nation under God…or Allah.

Notice Bush will not invade North Korea why no oil. Bush/Cheney want to control the middle east oil by invading the countries. Useing lies to do it and making fools of Americans. When Bush opens the draft you will see all Americans say stop. Now only the children of hardworking Americans children are killed based the lies. Iran will have the total middle east counrtries on their side. We will have no partners and no country will trust a word that we say. Iran will win the United States will lose.</p> President Ford gave Iran nuclear material now Bush want to iinvade Iran only for oil as he did with Iraq.

MarkofIreland,

We are all angry at what the Bush administration’s lies have resulted in particularly in Iraq. We can all make fun of how incredibly stupid and incompetent George Bush is. But something is getting lost in our message of outrage. Please watch this to understand the most important impact of what Bush’s actions/lies have done.

It’s hard to watch but SO necessary. If you’re not moved by this or don’t feel a pain in your heart, you should apply for a job in the Bush White House or go to help re-elect any member of Congress that justifies this War in Iraq (or any War for that matter).

Please watch/listen and pass it around:

Seems more like throwback to the 19th centuries ‘ Indian killer’ Jackson and ‘ Jim Crow’ Johnson though to me.
Practitioners and enablers of sustained domestic terrorism.

NO MORE WAR! ALL WE ARE SAYING – IS GIVE PEACE A CHANCE.
