Commentary on the American era of FEAR, self preservation, misinformation, failed security practices, along with a loathing temperance concerning false reasons to capture the hearts and minds, liberation, and an Operation Enduring Occupation.

Set in 1938, references hint at the looming and ignored war ahead, Hotel Hitler, cylinders that strike visions of fear, America's pension for blaming racial groups, and the ever growing resentment from the populace directed at the populace for questioning the reality facing the populace until madness takes over. Until...

Three years later...
"Kernel Kang, your report!"
"Ah...Well...The earthlings continue to resent our presence."
**explosion in background**
"You said we'd be greeted as liberators!"
"Don't worry! We still have the people's hearts and minds"
**holds up a heart and brain**
"I don't know. I'm starting to think Operation Enduring Occupation, was a bad idea!"
"We had to invade, they were working on Weapons of Mass Disintegration."
"Sure they were!!!"
**turns in disgust and surveys the land...**
**another explosion is seen in the city street below**

2. "America's pension for blaming racial groups"
Do you mean 'penchant'?

Sorry for the grammar geekage!

Loved the episode! Family Guy and American Dad weren't bad either.

6. Ummm...
Yea, I meant that. :silly:

Damn spell checker got drunk again. I need to check it into rehab. Can you forgive it? Maybe if I send it out for interviews afterward. It can sit and spell check Diane and Oprah and Katie. LOL :hangover:

8. For some reason I would have liked "Operation Enduring Operation" better ...
it's more goobldegookish, hence more credible Pentagonspeak.
