August is vacation time ....... are you glad the Iraqi Parliament is going? The US Congress?

[Stinky The Clown]

Must be hard work being a lawmaker.

Some things are universal.

For lawmakers, August must be vacation time.

For others, if they're DAMNED lucky, August is just a hot month in body armor.

1. Wouldn't it be great if we could all get a month off for vacation?

2. Yes..the entire earth just stopped working for one month in August

all wars halted..and ships did not sail..and planes did not fly...EVERYTHING BECAME STILL...it would be glorious! ceptin for the stinking dead bodies accumulated..

[Rosa Luxemburg]

3. There's so many pressing things that they should stay in DC all summer
