At the close of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, Dr. James McHenry, a Maryland delegate, followed Benjamin Franklin from Independence Hall. He recorded a question asked by a lady, directed at Dr. Franklin.

The lady asked, "Well Doctor, what have we got? A republic or a monarchy?"

"A republic," replied Dr. Franklin, "if you can keep it."

IN DEFENSE OF MINORITIES!

EARTHQUAKE STRIKES VIRGINIA: OBAMA SAYS BUSH IS TO BLAME

Minutes after a 5.8 earthquake struck northern Virginia today, an administration spokesman issued a statement from the President;
"What we saw today was the direct result of the prior administration's neglect and mismanagement of environmental and geological issues. The effects of the Bush administration's eight years in office was so devastating that our two years in office have been inadequate to reverse the trend of geological catastrophes that are directly attributable to the Republicans' unwillingness to address and remedy pressing environmental issues. We hope every American will join us in our fight to prevent future cataclysms of this nature from destroying our national environmental heritage, and suggest you write your congressperson today to demand they support the administration's efforts to bring meaningful compromise and reform to our geo-environmental policies." [From POTUS Blackberry on the fourth hole of the Hampton Greens]

Congresswoman Maxine Waters also issued a statement commenting that racism was apparent in this latest tragedy because the earthquake struck where [she has been told] "large numbers of black people live in rural Virginia, and just across the Potomac in D.C., just like here in California, where we get earthquakes all the time, and you don't see any earthquakes in Minnesota or Wisconsin or Montana, do you! It is New Orleans all over again!"

Blaming Bush is getting really, really old. This current administration is a train wreck.

Have a terrific day. :)

The Mrs. felt the quake a few states over, but I was outside and noticed nothing.

Obama has been the President of disasters and also the most disastrous president in my lifetime.

Obama needs to keep having fun with his holes. The more he does that the less he will screw up America.
