Since you mentioned Stalin :) :) :) (Yeah Joe! This time I'm guilty as charged!!!)
It's time for another revolution in this great land of ours... Only this time, I say we adopt the best of what does & doesn't work with respect to handing out punishment to these "knuckleheads" that pretend to represent us in both houses of Congress...
One of the best ways of handling incompetent representatives who go to great lengths to serve the special interests exclusively with the intent of acquiring huge profits for the few, as opposed to benefiting the majority of their constituents which is their true responsibility btw... Would be to round them up like Stalin did in his Soviet style purges, and send them up to a newly created "American Gulag" in the Alaskan wilderness where they can repent for their crimes by digging for oil with their cold, frozen bear hands!!! This place would also serve as an excellent replacement for Guantanamo Bay whereby, captured terrorists or their associates, dirty politicians, despots, etc. would cringe in the knowledge that they could potentially end up in the "Frozen Tundra" as opposed to the sunny,favorable climate in the island of Cuba. Quite frankly, I'm still flabbergasted that we haven't carpet bombed Iraq or Afganistan with pork blood & scraps yet??? This would serve as an excellent (IMHO) deterrent against the terrorists, and a heck of a lot less expensive compared to what we're using at the present time... Perhaps a modified form of "water boarding" whereby the water is replaced with pork blood, and whatever else these folks really fear!!! Hey, it worked for General "Blackjack Pershing" ;(
In other words, let the world know that we NOW mean business if anyone - foreign or domestic will really suffer the consequences of terrorizing the American people in one form or another... Subject to interpretation - of course ;) ;) ;) THE PUNISHMENT MUST FIT THE CRIME!!!
Yeah I know, it does sound very unrealistic but heck, my Grandma always told me that dreaming doesn't cost much ;) "Vote for me and I'll set you Free... Ball of Confusion!!! That's what the world is today hey - hey, let me hear, let me hear!!!" "Ball of Confusion!!!"
Seriously folks... I'll cast a vote for Al if he decides to run as an "Indie" ;) ;) ;)
Respectfully,
Henry
