September 10, 2010

Dear Madam Speaker:

Section 202(d) of the National Emergencies Act, 50 U.S.C. 1622(d), provides for the automatic termination of a national emergency unless, prior to the anniversary date of its declaration, the President publishes in the Federal Register and transmits to the Congress a notice stating that the emergency is to continue in effect beyond the anniversary date. Consistent with this provision, I have sent to the Federal Register the enclosed notice, stating that the emergency declared with respect to the terrorist attacks on the United States of September 11, 2001, is to continue in effect for an additional year.

The terrorist threat that led to the declaration on September 14, 2001, of a national emergency continues. For this reason, I have determined that it is necessary to continue in effect after September 14, 2010, the national emergency with respect to the terrorist threat.

Sincerely,

BARACK OBAMA BUSH III

Our government wishes we still went to the mall.

^With x-mas ads to buy crap starting in October this year, there is hope yet.

Well, there is our problem. If only the Marine Corps were at the mall, this recession might have ended earlier.

Yeah, if this is a fucking emergency . . .

Quick everyone, to the scrap metal drive! The bell tower has a new bell that needs melting!

Who can spare money for christmas presents when there is a war on?! President Obama urges you not to visit retailers this holiday season.

In light of the continued terrorist emergency, all citizens shall be required to wear Terrorism Protection Suits (Made in Taiwan, Freedom Cage™) when venturing into public areas.

12/15/2010 10:02:24 PM

President Obama urges you to forgo purchasing any goods this Christmas season. Remember, spending money on yourself or your family is helping Al-Qaeda!

What sucks about the scrap metal drive is they melted down all the cool stuff we had on campus. All kinds of captured cannons and large german guns cause we had the GI hookup.

PS Old school crane fail!
