"We the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid more riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the blessings of debt free liberty to ourselves and our great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt ridden, delusional, and other liberal bed-wetters. We hold these truths to be self evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of Rights and are so dim they require a Bill of NON-Rights."
ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV, or any other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them, but no one is guaranteeing anything.
ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone -- not just you! You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a different opinion, etc.; but the world is full of idiots, and probably always will be.
ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful, do not expect the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives independently wealthy.
ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing. Americans are the most charitable people to be found and will gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of subsidizing generation after generation of professional couch potatoes who achieve nothing more than the creation of another generation of professional couch potatoes.
ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would be nice, but from the looks of public housing,
we're just not interested in public health care.
ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people. If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be surprised if the rest of us want to see your rear fry in the electric chair.
ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat, loot, or coerce away the goods or services of other citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big screen color TV or a life of leisure.
ARTICLE VIII: You do not have the right to a job. All of us sure want you to have a job, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.
ARTICLE IX: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American means that you have the right to PURSUE happiness which, by the way, is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an over abundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.
ARTICLE X: This is an English speaking country. We don't care where you are from, English is our language. Learn it or go back to wherever you came from!
(lastly....)
ARTICLE XI: You do not have the right to change our country's history or heritage. This country was founded on the belief in one true God. And yet, you are given the freedom to believe in any religion, any faith, or no faith at all; with no fear of persecution. The phrase IN GOD WE TRUST is part of our heritage and history and if you are uncomfortable with it, TOUGH!!!!
It's about time common sense is allowed to flourish.
Sensible people of the United States speak out because if you don't, insensible people will."
Wow. Common sense, I'll be darned...
Love it, and will pass it about.

Sounds like a winner.
Definition of Politics
The little boy asks his father that he needs to know the "Definition of Politics" for a most important paper he has due for his class. The father quickly announces that he definitely knows the definition and could assist his son. He begins by informing his son that his father is the "Wage Earner" in the family, therefore. he is "Management." Then, he noted that he comes home and
gives all the money to his son's mother, so she is "Government." And, he continues to point out that our maid is the "Working Class," and his son is the "Public" and his little brother is the "Future." Next, he informs his son, "now go get your paper done!"
The little boy goes to his room attempting to work on his paper, but is very confused. Soon, he gets very tired and falls asleep. After sleeping a short while, he is awakened by his little brother who is screaming. He rushes to his little brother's bedroom and quickly smells that his brother messed in his diaper and it was all over the bed. The little boy then rushes to his parent's bedroom to find his mother totally curled up and sleeping soundly. There was no sign of his father. He rushes around the house, but could not find his father. He then goes to the maid's room and discovers the door is locked. He looks through the key-hole and sees his father in there with the maid!
At the breakfast table the next morning he excitedly thanks his father for informing him about politics and that he was able to complete his paper. Curiously, his father asks, "so what is the definition?" His son responds, it's like this dad: while "Management" is screwing the "Working Class," "Government" is sound asleep, nobody is listening to the "Public" and the "Future" is full of sh*t.
Amen, brother..................AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
actually, I think the government screws the working class, but other than that it's priceless !

Great post, but unfortunately all the people who should read it are probably watching the Jerry Springer show.
Or on stage.
