    …where they originate, then they sit on them for a time. A very long time!

    I didn’t realize that Congress had any ideas. They seem most interested in getting a seat around the trough.

    That means everytime a congressman passes gas a new bill is born in Congress. No wonder they all stink.

    ::ROFL!:: I agree, that is an excellent definition!

    Skyler knows more than he shows he knows.

    That can apply to the Executive and Judicial branches, too.

    Now you can understand the statement:

    “We’re supporting in our most fundamental laws and codes”

    My mother said, “Those men wouldn’t be in Washington if they didn’t know what they were doing.” Would you destroy a young man’s faith in his mother?

    Why are we so harsh on Congress - or on the other branches, for that matter?

    Don’t get me started on how republics inevitably encourage incompetence (if no worse) in leadership, but meanwhile Lawrence J. Peter’s own summary of his Peter Principle will suffice: the cream rises until it sours…

    My earlier cynicism aside, that’s one reason why the apostle Paul exhorted Christians to pray for the leaders of civil government. They need it.

    And it gives rise to something called, “The New World Odor”

    I object! The donkeys don’t have all the ideas.

    As it goes, both Elephants and Donkeys have butts though.

    I think there are smokers on both sides of the aisle.

    I think I’ll use the camel as the emblem of the party I’m going to start ;)

    Too easy. It’d be hard to get that one wrong.

    If “pro” is the opposite of “con,” what is the opposite of “progress”?

    Looks like Skyler gets an A+.

    I don’t know about ideas, but the seat is what they talk out of.

  23. OldHipster

    “Ideas originate” should be replaced with “gas eminates from”

    Ya heard it?

  24. SQUIDBREAKER

    @jimpow - the opposite of ‘progress’ is scientific progress goes boink!

    And I didn’t think Skyler was the genius he just showed himself to be! The Ideas come from a bit above the seat.

    Posted on a forum that I help run, under the title “Can you imagine working here?”
    Can you imagine working for a company that has a little more
    than 500 employees and has the following statistics:


    • 29 have been accused of spousal abuse

    • 7 have been arrested for fraud

    • 19 have been accused of writing bad checks

    • 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses

    • 3 have done time for assault

    • 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit

    • 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges

    • 8 have been arrested for shoplifting

    • 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits

    • 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year…
      Can you guess which organization this is?

    Answer: It’s the 535 members of the United States Congress.

    The caveat is that your list is a chain letter that has circulated since 2001.

    Skylar, YOU should be in Congress. You’re smarter than all of them.
    Probably, also smarter that your teacher. I bet he/she marks you “F” for that answer.

    Hey pal, where did I say it was absolute fact? I just saw on my forum and thought it would be humorous to share. If you can’t join in the fun and want to be condescending maybe you should be posting over at SOTU.
