If only Will Rogers were alive today! He would really crack-up reading the daily news!

Washington D.C. doesn’t have the funds to clean up the southern borders mess – illegal Mexican immigrants are costing the U.S. around four billion dollars a year, but instead of sending the bill to Mexico, their president is invited to Texas cook-outs!

Dozens of U.S. military bases are being closed to “save money” while China is steadily increasing its Pacific submarine fleets, and North Korea and Iran are building nuclear weapons! American troops, lacking adequate heavy armor and road-minesweeping equipment because of costs, are being killed daily on Iraqi highways at the same time the American tobacco industry is granted a one and one-half billion dollar subsidy, as if they need the money – a gift that smells more like a Virginia Senator Pork-pie!

Today we were told that the ugly child-sex molesting increase is going to be attended to, while repeat offenders are being pardoned or released back on to our streets daily by moronic prison officials and judges. And Martha Stewart, a supposed danger to our kitchens, is sentenced to three more weeks wearing a monitor on her ankle!
