President Obama says the two-year pay freeze for federal employees is “the first of many tough decisions” that need to be made. Yeah ... that one’s not all that tough for most of us, Mr President. OR Other “tough” decisions are a 10% cutback in Congressional fact-finding trips to Barbados, a one-month freeze on the President’s rounds of golf, and a 1%, across the board cut in underage hookers for Senators. OR To decide which “tough” decisions must be made next, The President announced the formation of the all-new, $800 billion “Tough Decisions Department,” to be headed by the new “Spending Cuts Czar,” who will take his department of 300 new employees and their families to the monthlong “Budget Cuts Conference” in San Moritz, Switzerland.

I have a feeling that if the WikiLeaks people were Tea Partiers, they would already have been classified “terrorists” and hauled into court.

A new study suggests that extra weight around the middle “ups a woman's risk of developing osteoporosis.” Personally, I don’t trust any study that uses the word “ups” instead of “raises.”
The Pentagon introduced a new weapon into Afghanistan that it says will become the Taliban’s “worst nightmare.” So apparently this weapon makes the Taliban believe they forgot to wear pants to school. OR The nightmare? A promotional blitz for “Waterworld 2: Electric Boogaloo.” OR The new weapon is the XM25. Next week The Pentagon unveils the EM50 Urban Assault Vehicle.
So if it’s Constitutional to require everyone to carry insurance, does that mean I can drop my auto policy’s “Uninsured Driver” rider?

An international advocacy group says that Mexico has done little to improve the squalid conditions of adults and children in mental institutions. To be fair, Mexico has also done little to improve the conditions of those NOT in mental institutions, so it’s not like they’re discriminating or anything.
Scientists are asking if Space Farmers could grow crops on other planets. I think the more pertinent question is can Space Cowboys be called Maurice on other planets?
An Irish Setter named Clooney was voted Best In Show at The National Dog Show last week. Clooney was only invited at the last minute, after Nevada beat Boise State. OR Ohio State President E.
