[SOLVED] For American Eyes Only

If the war on Iraq were an action movie, I think the trailer slogan would go something like this:

GULF WAR II: the good guys just got bad!

or

They tried to take his oil, they tried to kill his father, they made him think they were making bombs... now it's payback time! George W. Bush in Missing the Action.

or

Arabic is a disease. He's the cure. George W. Bush is DUMBO.

How about a dude with a green card?
 
How 'bout:

In a world, where it's 1991, a vastly militarily superior nation invades a smaller, defenseless one for its oil...

now...

In a world, where it's 2003, a vastly militarily superior nation invades a smaller, defenseless one for its oil...

It's (cue music) Looks Who's A Brutal Dictator Now, starring:

Alfred E. Neuman as George W. Bush.


A Jerry Bruckheimer/Halliburton joint.
 
How about:

George W. Bush the power of freedom kicks some evil Muslim
ass and then gets reelected despite the clueless fools who
don't care about anyone and have no idea how the world works.
(If he just didn't look like a moron so much it would also help , but who cares as long as he's told the right things to do.)

Live long and prosper.

Sounds just like a movie, doesn't it? Well, some sort of lightweight popcorn fiction at any rate.

Sure, if a green card means you want to be assimilated.
