Are we, or are we not?

A question from a job application questionnaire with the federal government:

"Are you a member of any foreign or domestic organization, association, movement, group, or combination of persons which is totalitarian, fascist, communist, or subversive, or which has adopted, or shows a policy of advocating or approving the commission of acts of force or violence to deny other persons their rights under the Constitution of the United States, or which seeks to alter the form of Government of the U.S. by unconstitutional means?"

So wait, does the government support those philosophies, or don't they? I fear that soon, my U.S. citizenship, will force me to answer that question in the affirmative. And I wonder if I answered that question in the affirmative now, would my chances of getting a job with the federal government be greater? I don't know, I'm just thinking out loud.

I'm not saying that this country will soon be a communist state, or that being a communist makes it easier to get a job, but I'm not, not saying it either. What do you think Van Jones?

Feeling motivated?

Me neither.

Is it bad that I laughed?

I may need some sensitivity training.

Good news from DC!

I don't know if those words have ever been spoken before, but it's true, there is some good news from DC.  The Senate voted 83-7 in favor of cutting funding to ACORN.  Obviously good news, but something is still troubling as gateway pundit points out that there were 7 senators that felt that an organization that has been caught coaching people how to lie to the IRS and traffic child prostitution still needed government funding.  Those senators were Burris, Casey, Durbin, Gilibrand, Leahy, Saders, and Whitehouse. 

Why do I get the feeling that Lord Obama would have just voted "present"?

Here's an idea...

Watch Al Franken do this all by himself.
