Many experts are predicting that the price of a gallon of gas will skyrocket to around $5 this summer. This will leave many citizens wanting to cancel vacations and trips to relatives because they do not want to shell out a hundred dollars at the gas pump. Because the United States is obviously running low on oil, since we have no reserves of our own and currently occupy no foreign nations illegally which we could steal from them, I propose this two-year plan which will help keep gas at under or around $3 a gallon, an average which it is currently holding.
June 1, 2011: Without informing the elected government of the US, the shadow government comes up with a plan to invade the Kingdom of Wakawakaland, because of the country’s newly found oil reserves. Wakawakaland is a small, terrorist laden country whose tourist slogan bills them as being “Somewhere in the Glorious Middle East”. Because the population is so small, and they have no national army, they become an easy target.
June 5, 2011: The shadow government contacts leaders of a terrorist force of Wakawakalians to have them attack the United States so that we can, in turn, launch an invasion of their country. The sacrificial lamb will be Joe Biden.
July 4, 2011: After giving a twelve-hour speech on the importance of democracy, Joe Biden leaves a conference in Wakawakaland to go to the airport so he can return home. On the way, his motorcade is attacked by terrorists armed with water pistols.

July 4, 2011: When news reaches back home that Biden is unharmed, Barack Obama does an epic facepalm, and the severity of such an attack on the United States of America is broadcast on the news day and night.

July 5, 2011: The army is put on full alert while congress scrambles to come up with a declaration of war. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton now announces to the world that Wakawakaland is “chock full” of weapons of mass destruction, consisting of Nerf apparel and a Gatling water gun. She prepares a massive poster-board map of the country, spanning 25 feet by 10 feet, and stands on a podium holding a meter-stick, where she then points out a three millimeter wide speck in the bottom left-hand corner of the board, and states that the weapons of mass destruction are housed there.
July 6, 2011: The declaration of war is drawn up by congress. The only two senators who voted against it die in a plane crash in the middle of the Northwestern wilderness a year later.

When she agrees to change the name of her army to Blackwater: The Sequel, they release her from prison and she is allowed to invade.

August 1, 2011: The last pre-invasion plans are carried out to evacuate all the women in Wakawakaland. Bill Clinton volunteers to lead the rescue mission.
August 2, 2011: The invasion commences, as the United States drops fifteen trillion tons of bombs on the twenty-square mile wide country. They then drop baskets of food and water to those still alive.
August 3, 2011: The terrorist leader of Wakawakaland, Sheik Rick al-Dipietroziz goes into hiding in the country’s massive underground cave system. Though he has Kidney disease, asthma, diabetes, cancer, and Mesothelioma, he will survive for another twenty years, and never be captured by the United States.
August 4, 2011: Because the US realizes they will never capture DiPietroziz, they invade the neighboring country and execute their leader instead.
August 5, 2011: Sarah Palin and her contingent arrive in the jungles of Wakawakaland armed with M-16′s.
