Congress, States simultaneously pass CRUD Act |
|
In a breathtaking show of unity, Republicans in Congress and many state legislatures simultaneously passed, at 4 AM today, the Create Reality by Ultimate Denial Act, informally called the CRUD Act . The Act eliminates reality and includes a provision permitting any GOP official to unilaterally ban unforeseen realities as they arise. Among the Act's provisions:
* climate change will no longer exist * nuclear power has negligible risks * there is no bias in the corporate-owned media * failure in public education is the result of too much money spent on it * the environment looks fine, around my estate, anyway * health care costs help the economy, especially insurance and pharmaceutical industries * there is an endless supply of fossil fuels * the recession is prolonged by paying snow plow drivers, bus drivers, etc. high wages * our infrastructure will improve as soon as we sign contracts with our large road-building contributors * poverty is caused by poor people; by ridding ourselves of poor people, we can eliminate poverty
(thanks to my sister for this one)

5. Yes. They'll be provided by Halliburton at $618 per pair. |

Another provision in the CRUD Act says that whatever any private corporation chooses to charge is a fair price.
