[PotUS] The Half-Way Point & Take Two
Evry
America,
Today is an important day for the country. My administration has approached a crossroads. Do we wimp out after a single loss in Manitoba and agree to peace with our neighbors from the North who have demonstrated a blatant disregard for our sovereignty? Or do we go for a fun little trip through Canada sampling their best maple syrup and smoked salmon and try to teach the “nicest” country in the World a lesson in respecting other countries’ sovereignty?
I personally would rather see us defend our honor and respect within the global community rather than pretend nothing happened. Canada repeatedly intruded upon our nation’s sovereignty. First their president published private information and misrepresented our foreign affairs intentions in order to discredit us in the eyes of the global community. An ally does not extort another ally in their own interests, that is the action of someone actively and willingly attempting to cause harm to a nation, and is in no way a friend. Acting like such a thing never happened would be an injustice to ourselves and our people. They have repeatedly attempted to take the moral high ground from this war, when the truth is, this whole thing started during one of Rylde's power trips, where he told our people to "give them a 5th Security Council spot or f*ck off!" Does that sound like a bro? Does that sound like an ally? Absolutely not. That sounds like a selfish administration bent on abusing its allies for its own national gain. Canada is no Bro.
However, just when we thought the water was under the bridge, the leader of Canada’s congress proposed us as their Natural Enemy. Upon receiving this news, I immediately responded with a Natural Enemy proposal of our own. When I became president, I promised to protect the country from harm. That obviously includes shielding us from nations who we previously thought were our friends. Their proposal jumped out to a 12-1 vote in favor of the war. We voted ours up in return, not wanting to get caught with our pants around our ankles. It soon became apparent once the no votes began piling on from our Canadian “brothers” that a trick was amiss. It turned out that they voted it up in the beginning in order to intentionally destroy our MPP stack. Rylde then blamed the entire ordeal on a bribe, and acted as if he didn't want the war from the first place, even though he's advocated for it on multiple occasions. He's been telling our administration he wanted to declare war since the beginning of the CTRL fiasco, and the idea that we 'bribed' a congressmen to get it done is absurd and insulting. I find it funny, that when Rylde wishes to expose an alliance, he publishes a whole charter, but when he exposes a bribe, he doesn't even supply the name of who did the crime. This is a fallacy, and a made up situation, intentionally meant to deceive people of the nature of this conflict. Upon learning of this plan, I decided it was worth the hit to our MPP stack in order to teach Canada a lesson in respecting other countries.
And now, after all this subterfuge and conniving actions they wish to kiss and make up? I think not. They may have won the battle in Manitoba using an immense amount of funds, however, we will win the war. Our second attack on our frozen neighbors will begin shortly. I ask all patriotic Americans to do their part. Anyone who doesn’t in fact wish to help America in its time of need, I request they deploy to Croatia to help them in their battle with Serbia.

I would also like to talk about a few non-War or Foreign Affairs related matters. We just hit the half-way point for my term and despite popular belief, I have been doing other things not related to protecting our honor and making new friends.
The Interior department has been handing out hundreds of thousands of food and tanks to new citizens looking to get on their feet.
The Education department has been educating our youth.
The Department of Defense has been working to make the USAF the most efficient fighting force the country has ever seen.
The Media Department has been informing the populace of important events and news.
And the Technology department made some shiny new toys.
One of those shiny new toys includes a way for the general population to vote on various questions put forth by the Executive branch.
If you would like to have your opinions heard, please check out this link and vote on various pressing issues. http://referendum.eusagovt.com/vote.php
Lastly, I’d like to announce a personnel change within the Executive branch. Secretary of State (MoFA) Tenshibo has stepped down due to personal reasons and has been replaced with Fhaemita Malodorous.
That is all for now America, I look forward to making the last half of this term fun and exciting and I hope you’ll join me in our romp around Canada.

Referendum's a cool touch

a poll of the masses was definitely needed.
as was a backup plan for those who did not want to fight in Canada.

LoL at a 15 year old child as SoS. The nation's top diplomat should be an ADULT, who has international contacts, like me. 🙂
FIST
blah blah blah.
You should come with warning Evry: Any similarities between my versin of events and what actually happened is purely coincidental.
"Their proposal jumped out to a 12-1 vote in favor of the war. We voted ours up in return, not wanting to get caught with our pants around our ankles"
Because it would have been a heavy problem to fight against Canada which would not have had any MPP's. And then it Canada chose to vote down their NE, while Evry decided to go for the war and told US congress to vote up his NE. Brilliant.
I love ilphen's logic: "if someone NE's you and their vote is passing by a huge margin, just sit there and do nothing, because they're smaller than you."
1. No.
2. The NE bonus is delicious, so who wouldn't take this opportunity?
3. You're retarded.
All comments on here can be summed up in three words: b*tch b*tch.
Huh, guess I only needed two.
blah blah blah
and
lol lol lol
we must admit that this administration is at least amusing
Lets wipe those Liers and Backstabbers OUT!!

You need to stop posting these pics and replace the article with tubgirl and give it the caption "eUS foreign policy"
evry,
i have much to learn from you in the art of troll.
Not sure what kind of respect you think you have earned your country....definitely not mine.
I shall be fighting for Canada.
Write the story any way you want. Your true nature has been revealed for all to see.
Sigh. America needs to vote this ignorant CP out.
I loled. And emedick. Ummmm ilphens logic is perfect. USA needs t stop lying and admit they just want the war to happen. And all you guys care about is a stupid war thats destroying a lot of shit.
Canada offered peace even after victory. The US government replies time and time again with War. The aggressor is revealed for the world to see. No more lies.
I'm skeptical about this referendum. Firstly, there is no way to see how the vote is going, so it owould be easy to falsify results
Secondly, there seems to be no mechanism to ensure the id a voter inputs is actually the id of the person voting, so I could input anyones id and vote for them
@emerick "2. The NE bonus is delicious, so who wouldn't take this opportunity?"
the question is, who would take the risk of creating a catastrophe that could otherwise be avoided. And besides, the US could have just NE'd once they saw the Canadian one was going to pass.
"LoL at a 15 year old child as SoS. The nation's top diplomat should be an ADULT, who has international contacts, like me."
Luckily the new SoS (me) is twice that age. And the most contacts you have is with Serbs.
Do you wanna give color glasses to the US people?
They can see the truth in black and white...
As you speak, I get the image of you in your knees... Am I right?
while we're at it:
self serving at it best - Check out the latest in VAST CONSPIRACIES: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/-motivation-1-2084976/1/20 **Chain Shout** if you agree
"our neighbors from the North who have demonstrated a blatant disregard for our sovereignty"
auto-attack from NE=game mechanics
"Their proposal jumped out to a 12-1 vote in favor of the war...It turned out that they voted it up in the beginning in order to intentionally destroy our MPP stack."
Why don't you tell the truth about that little ride in Canada? You want bonus. The bonus you'll loose for Spain in that deal with them, by delivering the occupied spanish regions...
Do you have US citizens as puppets? Cause it appears that way when you hide the truth.
Well, Canadian Congress certainly did not want to shred its MPPs in a war we would certainly lose. eUSA, on the other hand, has the #s advantage and could certainly fare better in this war with fewer MPPs
Therefore, you had all the more to gain by voting up the NE proposal and blaming Canada for an 11 vote lead in the first hour of the proposal.
Sorry, we're not the suckers/tricksters you have us pegged to be. And I don't believe eUSA is the sucker/victim being portrayed in this article.
Fhaemita? Really? I could get us premier membership in ANY alliance in existence in 24 hours... or start a new one with powerful countries....
so not really
Also, I favor joining CoT(although I would demand the name be changed)... to be with our Chilean & Bulgarian friends, among others... which is a TRUE third way..

Your "victory" was the result of an EDEN mpp stack coupled with misguided Americans fighting for you. Don't act like Canada is being gracious after a "victory", it's not. Canada realizes that EDEN has it's own problems elsewhere and with the missing eUSA damage they will have to focus on themselves.
Through My Eyes:
1. Evry + Rylde = bad bromance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrO4YZeyl0I
2. On the day of the NE proposal, Rylde was out most of the day. I was in #mdparty when Code-Y initiated and admitted to receiving a bribe to start a NE. Logs: http://pastebin.com/H7JGssF1
Take special notice to the following lines: 2, 3, 133, 134, 137, 140, 141, 142, 149, 150, 151, 177
Morningblur my government listened to it's people and gave up initiative in a sign of good faith. Rylde had a battle plan and mercenaries all lined up for a over night attack. He took the high road. You take the low road. I guess you will find a new brothers in Poland and Spain now. Have a good time.
100% BULLSHIP.
Also if we take Manitoba and it's deer, then we can drop our European colonies. If we only occupy Mexico and Canada we can keep our bonuses and only be subject to 2 resistance war drains a day instead of the 3 we are subject to now. That makes it much easier to deal with the resistance. Your government also knows it can't hold initiative. If EDEN is busy with their own fights Canada can't hold off the US be realistic.
Wow that is such genius thinking Mornginblur. Stab your brother in the back for a back room deal with your European enemies. It is much easier this way. Genius. They will be singing your praises from the mountain top. Hope the blood washes off your hands. I Brutus.
A "brother" doesn't leak sensitive info just because they don't get a leadership position in a new alliance. I have no issue with average Canadians, other than you elected a child who threw a tantrum as president. The eUS was trying to spice up a boring game and make an actual third way and that was destroyed because Rylde couldn't have the 5th seat for Canada. His bullshit about betraying allies was only after he was denied that seat. He's great at PR, but terrible at alliance planning.
I'm sorry our CP would never agree to going into bed with Poland and revealing your government would.
For the record, I was 16 when I was SoS.
Have a look at the battle field. All of ONE is fighting for you. Nice to have new friends I suppose after stabbing your old ones in the back.
Can't we all just get along?
