The Cost of Democracy
With the Democrats taking control of both the House and the Senate in last week's elections, there's bound to be some changes in the halls of power:
-- Tax cuts for the wealthy replaced with tax cuts for the only sort of wealthy.
-- Barbara Boxer beats out Elizabeth Dole for "most fashionable;" Dole retains "prettiest smile" prize.
-- United Nations Ambassador John Bolton removed from office, forced to shave moustache.
-- Free abortions in the second floor broom closet.
-- On subject of potential war in Iran, Bush asked to "maybe run it past us first."
-- Binding resolution declares Jay Leno not funny.
-- Halliburton no longer officially a branch of government.
-- Arlen Specter now required to wear pants.
-- Gay people: still not too popular.
-- National Anthem changed to "Free Bird."
-- No more Page Program Wet Boxer Nights.
