The LARK Program
July 15, 2008
A Lady wrote a lot of letters to the White House complaining about
the treatment of captive insurgents (terrorists) being held in
Guantanamo Bay. She received back the following reply:
The White House

Dear Concerned Citizen,
Thank you for your recent letter roundly criticizing our treatment
of the Taliban and Al Qaida detainees currently being held at Guantanamo
Bay, Cuba. Our administration takes these matters seriously and your
opinion was heard loud and clear here in Washington.
You'll be pleased to learn that, thanks to the
concerns of citizens like yourself, we are creating a new division of
the Terrorist Retraining Program, to be called the "Liberals Accept
Responsibility for Killers" program, or LARK for short. In accordance with
the guidelines of this new program, we have decided to place one terrorist
under your personal care.Your personal detainee has been selected and
scheduled for transportation under heavily armed guard to your residence
next Monday. Ali Mohammed Ahmed bin Mahmud (you can just call him Ahmed)
is to be cared for pursuant to the standards you personally demanded in
your letter of complaint.
It will likely be necessary for you to hire some assistant caretakers. We
will conduct weekly inspections to ensure that your standards of care for
Ahmed are commensurate with those you so strongly recommended in your
letter. Although Ahmed is a homicidal sociopath and extremely violent, we
hope that your sensitivity to what you described as his "attitudinal
problem" will help him overcome these character flaws.
Perhaps you are correct in describing these problems as mere cultural
differences We understand that you plan to offer counseling and home
schooling. Your adopted terrorist is extremely proficient in hand-to-hand
combat and can extinguish human life with such simple items as a pencil or
nail clippers. We advise that you do not ask him to demonstrate these skills
at your next yoga group. He is also expert at making a wide variety of
explosive devices from common household products, so you may wish to
keep those items locked up, unless (in your opinion) this might offend him.
Ahmed will not wish to interact with you or your daughters
(except sexually), since he views all females as a subhuman form of
property. This is a particularly sensitive subject for him and he has
been known to show violent tendencies around women who fail to comply
with the new dress code that he will recommend as more appropriate
attire . I'm sure you will come to enjoy the anonymity offered by the
burqa -- over time. Just remember that it is all part of "respecting his
culture and his religious beliefs". Wasn't that how you put it?
Thanks again for your letter. We truly appreciate it when folks like you
keep us informed of the proper way to do our job. You take good care of
Ahmed - and remember, we'll be watching.
Good luck!
Cordially,
Your friend,
George W. Bush
I HATE George W. Bush However, It is too bad we can't put
this into place. Would sure shut up some people with more mouth then conviction.
