The President's Ramadan Message
I send greetings to Muslims in the United States and around the
world observing the holy month of Ramadan.
Ramadan is the holiest season in the Islamic faith, commemorating
the revelation of the Qur'an to Muhammed. This month of introspection
provides Muslims a time to focus on their faith and practice God's
commands. Through fasting, prayer, contemplation, and charity,
Muslims around the world renew their commitment to lead lives
of honesty, integrity, and comion.
Throughout our history, people of different faiths have shaped
the character of our Nation. Islam is a peaceful religion, and
people who practice the Islamic faith have made great contributions
to our Nation and the world. As Americans, we cherish our freedom
to worship and we remain committed to welcoming individuals of
all religions. By working together to advance freedom and mutual
understanding, we are creating a brighter future of hope and opportunity.
Laura joins me in sending our best wishes. Ramadan mubarak.
George W. Bush
=
[Translation from Arabic of the actual message]
Could the camel-fornicator that finds our memo please it along
to the People of Iraq?
Hi, Arab maggots! It's me, Mr. G. I just wanna inform you of them
funds heading your way - and of the conditions them funds involve.
Nope, our dime sure doesn't come cheap. There's a reason we're
the world's richest nation, and I intend to maintain this title.
First: Give me my nuclear weapons back. Our army slaved on them
top-notch pieces of arsenal; Saddam bought them from America for
a fair price and promised to trigger them when we give him the
order. Not only this traitor didn't come through, now you are
claiming this prime nuclear goodness disappeared into thin air?
C'mon, Donald begs for his uranium to return - be fair to him,
the man can't live without it.
Second: Does the phrase 'Christ Is Your Friend' ring a bell? Get
used to it.
And last one: Capitalism. Nuff said.
George
P.S. Laura is curious: why would someone want to celebrate the
Ramada Inn? She reminded me of that night we spent there and got
a stomach flu virus from their room service. I think she has a
damn good point.
