My fellow Atlasians, it is my great honour to come before you today, and inform you of the State of the Forum.

Atlasians have finally escaped the grips of economic recessions. As the tide of the economy shifts once again, we can see prosperity again in our time. I would like to pass on my personal thanks to Secretary of the Treasury, Supersoulty for his fine work in bringing back the stability that benefits all our people.

While the economy is still reviving, I would like to remind the legislators of this country to be mindful of their spending, and the delicate nature of the budget. Fiscal responsibility should be a top priority, and spending our way into chronic deficit will neither aid the state, nor the people. With that in mind, I wish to bring the Senate’s, and citizens’ attention to pressing matters of national concern.

In the autumn of 2001, Atlasian forces, along with other nations around the world united under a banner of liberation and freedom and toppled the defunct government of the Taliban. We promised to bring justice and democracy in the people of Afghanistan, and I am here tonight to say that we are not fulfilling our promise.

Outside of the central provinces, and near the capital control of Afghanistan, in part is still under the authority of local warlords. Afghanistan’s second largest city, Kandahar is not under the control of the rightful Kabul government, but instead under the boot of corrupt local dictators.

As of 0520 hours, local time, with consultation with other coalition governments, elements of the coalition forces aiding the Kabul government in maintaining democracy struck out against those that do not want the previous anarchic systems of Afghanistan to come to an end. The offensive is minor, and will restore Kandahar to order.

I call on the Senate not to forget Atlasia’s promises to the people of Afghanistan and properly supply men, material, and finance the just cause in the heart of Central Asia.

Domestically, I would like the Senate to take the critical step in continuing the process of creating a green economy for our Republic. I ask that we continue to subsidize efforts within industry, and personal living. We owe the children of Atlasia a future not marred with smog filled skies, oily water, and coal streaked buildings.

Humanity has stood on this earth less than 0.000375% of the time of its existence, and in that time, beyond any creature we have changed it, affecting the lives of millions of species and billions, if not trillions of lives.

We must end the cycles of discovery, burning, and waste. Renewable sources, or more permanent sources of energy are needed not only for a viable long-term economy, but a long-term civilization. If we hope to continue as a people, we must advance the green economy.

Finally, I would like to apologize for my neglect of the Office of the Presidency. I cannot lay blame on anything, or anyone but myself, and for that I apologize to the citizens, and I hope that from now on I can better serve you, and the Republic.

Thank you, and good day.

Thank you Mr. President for your State of the Forum address. Like the President I agree we are failing the people of Afghanistan, and we should be providing more troops there, and more troops looking for Usama Bin Laden. Thank you Mr. President for pointing this sometimes lost cause out to the people of Atlasia. May the Lord Dave Leip bless you, and the prophet PD, bring wisdom to you.

Back then, you were the only President that wasn't unconstitutional.

Instead of just saying good speach, why doesn't the Senate take up the issues mentioned by the President.

Senator, I am greatly looking forward to the day when you and I can sit together and say, "What in God's name were we thinking?" Wink
