A Lady wrote a lot of letters to the White House complaining about the
treatment of a captive insurgent (terrorist) being held in Guantanamo
Bay. She received back the following reply:
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue
Washington, D.C. 20016
Dear Concerned Citizen,
Thank you for your recent letter roundly criticizing our treatment of
the Taliban and Al Queda detainees currently being held at Guantanamo
Bay, Cuba. Our administration takes these matters seriously and your
opinion was heard loud and clear, here in Washington. You'll be
pleased to learn that, thanks to the concerns of citizens like
yourself, we are creating a new division of the Terrorist Retraining
Program, to be called the "Liberals Accept Responsibility for Killers"
program, or LARK for short. In accordance with the guidelines of this
new program, we have decided to place one terrorist under your personal
care. Your personal detainee has been selected and scheduled for
transportation under heavily armed guard to your residence next Monday.
Ali Mohammed Ahmed bin Mahmud (you can just call him Ahmed) is to be
cared for pursuant to the standards you personally demanded in your
letter of complaint. It will likely be necessary for you to hire some
assistant caretakers. We will conduct weekly inspections to ensure that
your standards of care for Ahmed are commensurate with those you so
strongly recommended in your letter. Although Ahmed is a sociopath and
extremely violent, we hope that your sensitivity to what you described
as his attitudinal problem" will help him overcome these character
flaws. Perhaps you are correct in describing these problems as mere
cultural differences. We understand that you plan to offer counseling
and home schooling. Your adopted terrorist is extremely proficient in
hand-to-hand combat and can extinguish human life with such simple
items as a pencil or nail clippers. We advise that you do not ask him
to demonstrate these skills at your next yoga group. He is also expert
at making a wide variety of explosive devices from common household
products, so you may wish to keep those items locked up, unless (in
your opinion) this might offend him. Ahmed will not wish to interact
with you or your daughters (except sexually), since he views all
females as a subhuman form of property. This is a particularly
sensitive subject for him and he has been known to show violent
tendencies around women who fail to comply with the new dress code that
he will recommend as more appropriate attire. I'm sure you will come
to enjoy the anonymity offered by the Burka -- over time. Just remember
that it is all part of "respecting his culture and his religious
beliefs". Wasn't that how you put it? Thanks again for your letter.
We truly appreciate it when folks like you keep us informed of the
proper way to do our job. You take good care of Ahmed - and remember,
we'll be watching. Good luck!
Cordially, your friend,
GEORGE W. BUSH

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you,
Jesus Christ and the American G. I.
One died for your soul; the other for your freedom.
YOU MIGHT WANT TO PASS THIS ON AS MANY SEEM TO FORGET BOTH OF THEM

you might want to pass this on to shadow eagle. i served in the military
and proud of it. i have a brother serving over in irack now and proud
of it.

from the desk at Fox News probably...I really hate stuff like that..
see no humor in it..even though I am a former Marine

I didn't find it humorous either but sadly all too true of some people.

I agree that some people are sad, but I do have to sexpress my doubts
about the validity ofthis letter as well.
There is no way in hell our president (any president ofthe us) would
sign a letter likethat.

Semper Fi, Davinci... and about the letter there IS nothing funny about
it

same to you phoenx....USMC 1970 - 73 .....seems like another lifetime
ago
