    It was a final jeopardy question several months ago. I think one person got it correct.

    Right? Can't you just see all these Senate staffers working round the clock, trying to figure out how to make the name of the act spell something star-spangled?

    Is that how they spend our tax dollars?

    Bastards.

    Fortunately, I pay no taxes. Yet.

    Well fortunately for you, the current administration & congress are spending money at such a prodigious rate, that, coupled with huge irresponsible tax cuts, you and future taxpayers will be able to enjoy paying for 8 years of massive deficit spending - with interest! Enjoy.

    Hooray!

    Oh wait... that's bad, isn't it? :(

    Maybe if we just created more acronym acts, the problem would be solved.

    Anyone want to try their hand at defining the STOP RECKLESSLY SPENDING MONEY ON WARS WE DO NOT NEED Act?
