What Bush's invasion of Iraq would look like in the United States

and most of the rest wouldn't be able to flush their toilet, have running water, or electricity to run their AC when it's over 100.

"If you compare the population of the U.S. with that of Sweden, the U.S. should today have received 500,000 Iraqis ... but they haven't." - Swedish Migration Minister

3. Uh oh. Those Swedes could be harboring terrrrists.

They're so cute with their peaceful lifestyle, health care for all, free education and stuff. But they're just asking for trouble letting those people into their country.
