    Recipe for National Collapse

    1 Cup-Terrorist Acts
    ½ tsp-Terrorist Leaders
    1 Gallon-Trigger-Happy President
    6 Cups-Subordinate Staff
    1 ml-Guilt
    2 Cups-Military Re-enforcements
    ½ cup-Patriotism
    7Cups-Self-Righteous Justice
    2 tbs-Religious Beliefs

    Bake at 911 degrees,
    While baking, sprinkle the seasoning, “From Sea to Shining Sea.”
    Check occasionally for raising, to expose weapons of mass destruction,
    But don’t let bake too long for visions of corruption.

    When it is almost done you should smell lies,
    It will be the smell of an American Pie,
    Now it’s finally done, 2 servings,
    Feed everyone else by nationally alerting.

    Now be careful serving the last piece for fear of mishaps,
    This is the recipe for national collapse.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
