Hey you US people down there, you don’t have time to waste killing and maiming people in a witless war. You have pressing needs right here at home, such as:               Social Security (Don’t worry, I’ll be speaking with Dr. Einstein shortly, who is up here in heaven. I know he will have some good ideas about this issue, and I’ll let you know about them just as soon as I can.)

              You have giant holes in your educational system with that “No Child Left Behind” business.               Unfair practices in your taxation system - you need to rescind those hefty tax breaks for your embarrassingly wealthy citizens.               You should see to it that your constitutional basis for environmental protection and labor regulations are upheld and further enhanced.               Your separation of church and state policies are slipping terribly and dangerously. You must see to this right away!               Affirmative action must again be pursued with regard to women’s rights, sexual preference rights and other issues of human need and human progress. And, at least you must complain about that eerie and problematical Patriot Act.               You have immigration and national security problems. You must find a better way to ascertain who wants to get into the US for good and proper reasons and who wants to get into the US with harmful intent. National security must be improved, especially at your borders, your nuclear plants and other vulnerable places, your seaports and your airports (securing not only passengers and luggage but all cargo areas). More US spies should be sent abroad to investigate those who might be interested in acts of terror, etc. There must be better cooperation between your intelligence agencies. (If this cooperation had been practiced before 9/11, there would have been no 9/11.)               Family values are worthwhile, but you must also pay attention to your societal values. You have been allowing misinformation to guide your international policies. You have allowed your public airways to be corrupted with lies and propaganda. Wake up kiddies. Mistakes are being made in your name. So you have work to do; write to your representatives in Congress. Bring your embattled troops home. Stop the carnage. You need to think and regroup. After all, it is your country!
