ONE sentence from the stimulus bill (Ask them to explain this ONE sentence)

Read the Stimulus ^ | 2-9-09 | Nancy Pelosi

[Indy Pendance]

When you write your congressman or senator, ask them to explain this sentence.

[null and void]

First, we kill all the lawyers...

[al_c]

That's one sentence? Good grief.

[Indy Pendance]

Send it to them. What a fricking joke this is.

[DouglasKC]

Easy. Mass transportation, a liberal cause, is going to get 6 billion dollars worth of free money.

[ozark hilljilly]

It’s simple:
“Bend Over.”

[HIDEK6]

Did anyone try running this through babelfish?

[Pistolshot]

BOHICA

[massgopguy]

Ibbity Bibbity, bibbity bab.

[Blood of Tyrants]

I think we should go for the politicians first.

[Made In The USA]

Apparently part of the stimulus package is the hiring of an army of lawyers to figure out what the hell $900,000,000,000 is being spent on.

[theDentist]

Amtrak, I believe

[bgill]

Uh-huh, and which states or cities have mass transit? Not fly-over country.

[Cementjungle]

For transit capital assistance grants, $6,000,000,000

I think that's for the new jet fleet for Congress, including new private airports for their exclusive use on various Caribbbean and South Pacific resort islands.

We don't have time to read the bill/ The need is too urgent. We must act now! /sarc

[DustyMoment]

That’s not a sentence!! Trying to READ it is a sentence (as in punishment)!! That’s like writing War and Peace with no punctuation.

The problem is that it is supposed to be so indecipherable that everyone will ignore it. This NEEDS explanation.

Since most politicians are lawyers killing the lawyers first will get most of them plus there won't be anyone left to prosecute us.

as Beavis used to say “words,words ,words...”

[AngryJawa]

When I read this kind of nonsense, this is how I interpret it:

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
