is this sarcastic, or the most asb TL i have ever seen?

There has been three pieces of work which i consider breaking the ASB factor.

An Independent in 2000 , where someone whose location of birth is never known, somehow gets into the presidency, and magically makes all the world's problems go away.

America suddenly being in bed with Russia, even after the cold war? What else, an ex-KGB officer being president of Russia, with a distrust of America.

Somehow, even with internet being used more frequently earlier, i do not see Bill cooper or Alex Jones making an EVEN bigger fuss than OTL about 9/11. And how does the author get round Loose change and Terrorstorm? He just say "liberty", and the truth movement vanishes.

Let us be honest, the Truth movement would be EVEN bigger than OTL, and Edwards may be impeached. How many views did Loose Change get OTL? >100 million. MPs even considered showing it in parliament. Picture hundreds of videos with Loose change amounts of viewers, earlier than Loose Change or Terrorstorm OTL.

He also has the UN Arrest saddam. But that would take ALL the security council's approval. And France, Russia or China would NOT approve (they sold saddam the majority of his hardware in the 80s, not America or Britain). They also somehow have afghanistan turning into a magical utopia almost overnight.

As well as that, Space being neglected for 40 years suddenly getting an asteroid, even though all spaceships are grounded after columbia?

What else? China not vetoing every un resolution against zimbabwe, sudan, iraq, etc. Somehow, Edwards magically gets high quality american goods even though all factories were outsourced to china.

Ron Paul as secretary of the treasury yet the FEDERAL RESERVE is still online?

Turkey giving the Kurds independence?

All fo North America suddenly wanting to join the USA? Especially Canada?

All of europe joining? Kazakhstan joining Russia?

Taiwan joining China?

America cutting off money to israel?

texas abolishing the death penalty, with George W Bush still governor?

sorry about that, i just had to vent my spleen.

My God, an AAR about George W. Bush! :rolleyes:

(or perhaps about Donald Rumsfeld and the "Iraqis will welcome US troops with rose petals" crew)

And also, as an afterthought : selling stuff to Saddam when he's fighting Iran in 1985 doesn't mean supporting his regime in 2003 (or else how would you explain the Coalition during Desert Storm?)
 
What a wikia TL who show a bias world view and his nothing but mastubatory wishful thinking, unbeliveable!

*Yawn*

thought considering who posting this thread there is some irony
 
Wow...just....wow...

The Unification of North America

By late 2006 the United States has supplanted the economies of all other North American nations. With Latin American Nations now dependent on subsidies from the US, and Canadian businesses simply unable to compete with the US, it comes as no surprise when millions of people from every North American nation come flooding into the US. By 2007 there are over 100 million illegal immigrants in the United States, and more still flooding in on a daily basis. This is said to be the final straw that lead to the America's greatest expansion of territory.

2007: US goods are now the most popular in the world; with mineral values down to next to nothing and subsidies going to every industry to retool, the US economy supplants those of every country. There are no taxes in America, and families are given a $20,000 subsidy from the government on a yearly basis. Americans live in a level of affluence that is unmatched by any nation, so much so that by the end of the year their are calls all over North America from countries that want to join the United States. Edwards holds a meeting in Washington DC with the Organization of American States, and all those in North America have stated that popular referendum dictates that they join. Edwards puts the proposal before congress, and after weeks of heated debate, the US annexes the entire continent. The North American Union Act was solidified when Cuba overthrew Castro from power and elected to join in referendum. The Act was constructed as follows:
  • All New states shall be given the same rights and freedoms as any other state.
  • All New states must amend their current constitutions to comply with the US Constitution.
  • The US House of Representatives will expand to 600 seats to accommodate the increase of citizens.
  • All previously illegal immigrants will be pardoned and given citizenship.
  • The Continental United States will become Metric Standard by 2010.
  • All Military Personnel will be refitted and rearmed with the current US Arsenal.
  • English must be taught in every school by 2010.
    • Spanish and French must be taught as second languages.
  • A new network of highways and rail lines will be built to unite the continent.
  • All Identification must be replaced by 2008.
    • This includes all drivers licenses, passports, medical licenses, Weapons Permits, etc.
  • States will be reorganized to accommodate the US federalist system, and demographics of the area.
 
Okay its ASB junk.

But you have to admit its wellput together,detailed junk and welcome relief on that site for all the TLs that make up a few dates and a dozen words.
