The most pressing issues facing our nation...
...are moon colonies and steroids in baseball.

Sorry for the tangent. I'm still not over that last State of the Union address.

I miss having a president who was even slightly aware of what was going on in the world. We sure were spoiled with Clinton.

1. The war in Iraq was a tangent.
I just listened to bill nelson sen d florida, say that the gaurd/ reserve progams were not used as designed. he said there were not enough of their skills in the active military.

senator, the reason our troops are over extended is not that there are not enough of them. The reason our troops are over extended is an optional war.

2. I always thought the military was designed to protect OUR country.
I must have been mistaken.

3. Well, thank goodness we have a president
who realizes what's really important. You see once we get our moon colonies we won't need steroids. The moon has so much less gravity that each hit will send the ball out of the park; imagine that, an entire world, er, moon series of nothing but home runs? Isn't science grand?

4. If Bush owned the Moon's baseball team, would he trade for Sosa?

Perhaps if the baseball players would share their steriods some
asthma sufferers might get relief since a lot have no healthcare....they might be able to share it with people who have other illnesses which require steriods as well...

So by fixing that steriod problem ...we would save the healthcare system...bwahahahahaha
