Congress
which conflicts with the

is void.
Editor's Note: Here are some

act, The Department of Homeland Security, The War on Drugs, The war in
Afghanistan, The War in Iraq, The War on Terrorism, a Preemptive strike

Katrina body counters secretive, corrupt
As James Wolcott has pointed out, quite apart from the human grief and misery of

a full and accurate accounting of deaths will actually happen. Two developments

Bush Administration Breaks Record
Administration Borrows more from Foreign Nations
than Previous 42 Presidents Combined
A release from John Tanner (D-TN)
Washington, D.C. - President George W. Bush and the
current Administration have now borrowed more money from foreign governments and
banks than the previous 42 U.S. presidents combined.
Throughout the first 224 years (1776-2000) of our nation's history, 42 U.S.
presidents borrowed a combined $1.01 trillion from foreign governments and
financial institutions according to the U.S. Treasury Department. In the past
four years alone (2001-2005), the Bush Administration has borrowed a staggering
$1.05 trillion.
"The seriousness of this rapid and increasing financial
vulnerability of
our country can hardly be overstated," said Rep. John Tanner (D-TN)

NOT A NEWS STORY... OR IS IT ?
Try To Figure These Out
1. A murderer is condemned to death. He has to choose between three
rooms. The first is full of raging fires. The second is full of assassins
with
loaded guns. The third is full of lions that haven't eaten in three years.
Which room is safest for him?
2. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him under water for over
five minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go
out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How can this be?
3. There are two plastic jugs filled with water. How could you put all
of the water into a barrel, without using the jugs or any dividers, and
still
tell which water came from which jug?
4. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it, and grey when you
throw it away?
5. Can you name three consecutive days without using the words Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday or Sunday?
6. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious how quickly you can find out
what is so unusual about it. It looks so plain you would think nothing
was wrong with it. In fact, nothing is wrong with it! It is unusual
though.
Study it, and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd.
But if you work at it a bit, you might find out.
Answers are below :
1. The third room. Lions that haven't eaten in three
years would be dead.
2. The woman was a photographer. She shot a picture of her husband,
developed it, and hung it up to dry.
3. Freeze them first. Take them out of the jugs and put them in the
barrel. You will be able to tell which water came from which jug.
4. The answer is charcoal used for a barbacue.
5. Sure you can: Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow.
6. The letter "e", which is the most common letter in the English
language, does not appear once in the long paragraph.

THIS IS A JOKE, IT'S NOT A NEWS
STORY, OR IS IT ?
AMERICAN BUSINESS AT ITS BEST
Toyota, a Japanese company, and GM, an American company, decided to have a
canoe race on the Missouri River. Both teams practiced long and hard to
reach their peak performance before the race. On the big day the Japanese
won by a mile.
Afterward, the American team became very discouraged and morally
depressed. The American management decided the reason for the crushing
defeat had to be found. A Management Team made up of senior management was
formed to investigate and recommend appropriate action.
Their conclusion was the Japanese had eight people rowing and one person
steering, while the American team had eight people steering and one person
rowing. So American management hired a
consulting company and paid them an incredible amount of money.
After six months of hard work, they advised that too many people were
steering the boat, while not enough people were rowing. So the American
Team acted: To prevent losing to the Japanese again next year, the rowing
team's management structure was totally reorganized to four steering
supervisors, three area steering superintendents and one assistant
superintendent steering manager.
They also implemented a new performance system that would give the one
person rowing the boat greater incentive to work harder. It was called the
"Rowing Team Quality First Program," with meetings, dinners, and free pens
for the rower. Even new paddles and medical benefit incentives were
promised for a winner. "We must give the rower the empowerment and
enrichments through this quality program."
The next year the Japanese won by two miles.
Humiliated, the American management laid off the rower for poor
performance, halted development of a new canoe, sold the paddles and
canceled all capital investments for new equipment.
The money saved was distributed to the senior executives as bonuses for a
job well done.

The disease is called Gonorrhea Lectim...pronounced (gonna re-elect him).
Many victims contracted it in 2004 after having been screwed for the

Cognitive characteristics of individuals infected include: antisocial

extreme cognitive dissonance, inability to incorporate new information,
pronounced xenophobia and paranoia, inability to accept responsibility for
own actions, cowardice masked by misplaced bravado, uncontrolled facial
smirking, ignorance of geography and history, tendencies towards

..."Many have criticized Bush for staging the war in Iraq in
order to seize Iraqi oil fields. However, those critics can't explain why Bush
would want to seize those fields - he could simply print dollars for nothing and
use them to get all the oil in the world that he needs. He must have had some
other reason to invade Iraq. Bush must have went into Iraq to defend his Empire.
Indeed, this is the case: two months after the United States invaded Iraq,
the oil for food program was terminated, the Iraq EURO accounts were switched
back to dollars, and oil was sold once again only for U.S. dollars. No longer
could the world buy oil from Iraq with EUROs. Global dollar supremacy was once
again restored. Bush descended victoriously from a fighter jet and declared the
mission accomplished - he had successfully defended the U.S. dollar, and thus
the American Empire." ..

New York State Facts - kids room![]()
What is a Billion?
A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one
advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into
perspective in one of its releases:
A billion seconds ago - it was 1959.
A billion minutes ago - Jesus was alive
A billion hours ago- our ancestors were living in
the Stone Age.
A billion dollars ago -
was only 8 hours and 20
minutes, at the
rate that the Federal Government in Washington D.C. spends it.
Here is what he had to say...
1 Billion Seconds ago it was 1973 not 1959
1 Billion Minutes ago Jesus had died and been risen for over 60 years
Depending on the Budget the 8hrs 20min might actually be a lot faster.
(The 8.333hrs is dependent on a yearly budget of 1.051 Trillion dollars)
His source: www.snopes.com
Since the annual budget that President Bush proposed for the up coming year is
over 2.4 Trillion dollars... That would mean that our government is now spending
your tax dollars at the rate of over 2 billion dollars every 8 hours !
*****************
Despite what President Bush says, the war on Iraq is not over. The cost of this
war to the American tax payer is going up every second. Since we can't put a
price on human lives, we will just give you the figures in tax dollars that the
American tax payers have paid as of right now. These figures were provided by
the Costofwar.com
website.
