Barack Obama's Promise Of Change Rings True In The Year 2009

Ed. Note: Dear reader, (yes! that means you!) let us gaze into the crystal ball and see what the future holds for us one year from today, in the year 2009:

Baghdad - It is the fourth day of April, 2009, nearly 3 months since President Barack Obama withdrew US troops from Iraq and barely 2 months since Iran and Al Qaeda seized control of the country. And already radical pro-Democracy elements within Iraq are attempting to topple the new Iranian/AlQaeda regime.

In an urgent 3 AM phone call to the White House Friday morning, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Al Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden briefed President Obama about the current upheaval in Iraq - and pleaded with him to return US troops to the region to help quell the pro-Democratic insurgency.

However, according to a White House official who spoke to reporters on condition of anonymity, President Obama has no immediate plans to return US troops to the region anytime soon.

The White House official told reporters that President Obama held a hastily convened meeting Friday morning with members of his administration in which he emphatically opined that US troops would never be able to thwart the pro-Democratic insurgency in Iraq.

"If we wish to strengthen the new theocratic regime of Iraq and foster totalitarianism in the middle east," Obama said, "we must be willing to talk to our enemies, even if it means negotiating with unsavory, pro-Democratic insurgents like former Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki."

The White House official also said that Obama will travel to the Middle East early next week and meet with America's new allies, including the leaders of Iran, Al Qaeda and the Mahdi Army. But most importantly, he will also meet with America's adversaries, including former Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki and other pro-Democratic elements in Iraq, and attempt to convince them to lay down their weapons and to recognize Iran and Al Qaeda's sovereignty in Iraq.

"It's never easy to meet with people like al-Maliki who espouse fanatical Democratic ideologies," the official said, "but ultimately, we must be willing to talk to our enemies if we wish to bestow peace and totalitarianism upon the Middle East."

"I believe Barack Obama is on the right track," he added. "He promised us he would bring about change, and indeed, Iraq has changed dramatically over the last few months! Who would have ever dreamt that Iraq would morph into a benevolent theocracy in such a short period of time?!
