Husband Store
A store that sells new husbands has opened in New York City , where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:
You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs  She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids. 'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more.' So she continues upward. The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking. 'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 4 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework. 'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!' Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and Have a Strong Romantic Streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.
PLEASE NOTE: To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street.
The first floor has wives that love sex.
The second floor has wives that love sex and have money and like beer.
The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited. [s:55]

America... poor America
'545'  People that maintain a dysfunctional government!      

By  Charlie Reese* --

Politicians  are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against  them. Have you ever wondered why, if both the Democrats and the Republicans  are against deficits, we have deficits? Have you ever wondered why, if all  the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, we have inflation and  high taxes?

    *

      You and I don't propose a federal budget.
      The President  does.
    *

      You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on  appropriations. The House of Representatives does.
    *

      You and I don't write  the tax code, Congress does.
    *

      You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress  does.
    *

      You and I don't control monetary policy, The Federal Reserve Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one president and nine Supreme  Court justices - 545 human beings out of the 300 million - are directly,  legally, morally and individually responsible for the domestic  problems that plague this country. The plate is so full of problems its  totally overwhelming.

I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve  Board because that problem was created by the Congress.

In 1913, Congress  delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally  chartered but private central bank.

I excluded all the special  interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal  authority.

They have no ability to coerce a senator, a Congressman or a  president to do one cotton-picking thing.

I don't care if they offer a  politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept  or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's  responsibility to determine how he votes. Those 545 human beings spend much  of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They  cooperate in this common con regardless of party.

What separates a  politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall, power, love of the lime light and perks. No normal human being would have the  gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating  deficits.

The president can only propose a budget. He cannot  force the Congress to accept it.

The Constitution, which is the supreme  law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for  originating and approving  appropriations and  taxes.

Who is the speaker of the House?
Nancy Pelosi, she is the  leader of the majority party.

She and fellow House members, not the  president, can approve any budget they want.

If the president vetoes  it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to.

It seems  inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million can not replace 545 people  who stand convicted-- by present facts - of incompetence  and Irresponsibility.  Wake up America before its too late.

I can't think of a single domestic  problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you  fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal  government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to  exist.

    *

      If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair or  don't care.
    *

      If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in  the red or don't care.
    *

      If the Marines are in IRAQ, it's because they  want them in IRAQ.
    *

      If they do not receive social security but are on an  elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it  that way. Its a windfall for them. One term, and their set for  life.

There are no insoluble government problems.

Do not let  these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs  they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to  regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can  take this power.

Above all, do not let them con you into the belief  that there exists disembodied mystical forces like 'the economy,' 'inflation'  or 'politics' that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to  do.

Those 545 people and they alone, are responsible. They and  they alone, have the power.

They and they alone, should be held  accountable by the people who are their bosses - provided the voters have the  gumption to manage their own employees.

We should vote all of them out  of office and clean up their mess!'

*Charlie Reese is a former columnist of the Orlando  Sentinel
