Leave it to Robin Williams to come up with the perfect
plan .. what we need now is for our UN Ambassador to
stand up and repeat this message:


Robin William's plan.(Hard to argue with this logic!)
I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not
heard of a plan for peace. So, here's one plan.

1.) The US will apologize to the world for our
"interference" in their affairs, past & present. You
know, Hitler, Mussolini, Tojo, Noriega, Milosevic and
the rest of those 'good ole boys,' We will never
"interfere" again.

2.) We will withdraw our troops from all over the
world, starting with Germany, South Korea and the
Philippines. They don't want us there. We would
station troops at our borders. No one sneaking through
holes in the fence.

3.) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their
affairs together and leave. We'll give them a free
trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be
gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of
who or where they are. France would welcome them.

4.) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and
limited to 90 days unless given a special permit. No
one from a terrorist nation would be allowed in. If
you don't like it there, change it yourself and don't
hide here. Asylum would never be available to anyone.
We don't need any more cab drivers or 7-11 cashiers.

5.) No foreign "students" over age 21. The older ones
are the bombers. If they don't attend classes, they
get a "D" and it's back home baby.

6.) The US will make a strong effort to become
self-sufficient energy wise. This will include
developing nonpolluting sources of energy but will
require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan
wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while.

7.) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing
countries $10 a barrel for their oil. If they don't
like it, we go some place else. They can go somewhere
else to sell their production. (About a week of the
wells filling up the storage sites would be enough.)

8.) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe
in the world, we will not "interfere." They can pray
to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cement or
whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them
is stolen or given to the army. The people who n! eed it
most get very little, if anything.

9.) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island
some place. We don't need the spies and fair weather
friends here. Besides, the building would make a good
homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.

10.) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school.
That way, no one can call us "Ugly Americans" any
longer. The Language we speak is ENGLISH.....learn
it...or LEAVE...Now, isn't that a winner of a plan.

"The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me
your poor, your tired, your huddled masses.' She's got
a baseball bat and she's yelling,
'You want a piece of me?'"

James I dont think Robin Williams really said or wrote that. Just from what I have heard from him in the past and such I just dont think he did it. He might have and I hope to find out who wrote this but I feel it is right on....

Also to we have pulled our troops out of the Philippines around 93 I think. ;)

The item's debut appears to have been a 20 March 2003 posting to the USENET newsgroup alt.motorcycles.harley, and from there it was rapidly disseminated via e-mail and blogs, credited to either "author unknown" or no one at all. The Robin Williams attribution wasn't tacked on until several weeks later, apparently because along the way someone appended a genuine Robin Williams quote to the list as an eleventh item:


"The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying 'Give me your poor, your tired, your huddled masses.' She's got a baseball bat and she's yelling, 'You want a piece of me?'" - Robin Williams.

Obviously the Robin Williams attribution for the final item was interpreted as applying to the list as a whole, so now the entire piece is making the rounds as 'the Robin Williams plan.' http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/williams.asp

Giant Sunflowers are scaring the hell out of me too. I have that copied somehwere in my documents. That was one of the funnier things I have read in a while. No way in hell that Robin Williams wrote taht just for the fact it is oozing conservative sarcasim.

That's been circulating via email for more than a year. Couldn't have been written by him.


One time I saw Robin Williams and Billy Crystal on Johnny Carson. The two of them just started feeding off each other's insanities, and were going on and in a sheer comedic genius. Carson just sat back and enjoyed. Awesome!
