The following was written by State Representative Mitchell Kaye from GA. You may find it interesting:

"We, the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any 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, deluded, 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
that they require a Bill of No 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, change 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 you fry in the electric chair.

>>ARTICLE VII:
You do not have the right to the possessions of others. If you rob, cheat 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 don't have the right to demand that our children risk their lives in foreign wars to soothe your aching conscience. We hate oppressive governments and won't lift a finger to stop you from going to fight if you'd like. However, we do not enjoy parenting the entire world and do not want to spend so much of our time battling each and every little tyrant with a military uniform and a funny hat.

>>ARTICLE IX:
You don't have the right to a job. All of us sure want all of you to have one, 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 X:
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 overabundance of idiotic laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.

If you agree, we strongly urge you to forward this to as many people as you can. No, you don't have to, and nothing tragic will befall you should you not forward it. We just think it is about time common sense is allowed to flourish - call it the age of reason revisited.

These same people will trash their bodies, and expect us to foot the bill for their drug addiction, AIDS, etc. Every weekend the hospital in Uniontown fills up with people on public health care seeking emergency treatment... for hangovers. Or detox.

So, while universal health care WOULD be nice, as long as there are so many people to abuse the system (as they do in public housing), and as long as we continue to tolerate them, it's not going to happen.

Rule #1 : Always try to help a friend redeem himself from a past mistake.

We would like nations to fight without us, but they never seem to. You'd think countries in the Middle East would have taken care of Saddam themselves back in the early 90's, but we (NATO) had to start and they helped. You'd think Russia and Eastern European countries would have wanted to stop a Dictator (since they were socialists and commies once), but we're having to do it in the name of 'human rights' and 'proactive global security.' Which to me means taking care of something before it gets out of hand.

Stupid other countries. D'oh!

When they're in a jam, they're all "Hey, give us a hand up luv, send us some foreign aid, and some o' them high-tech weaponry, and some more foreign aid, and troops to teach us how to use the weapons, and maybe some bullying the other countries into supporting us, and a little bit more foreign aid, that's a good chap."

And when they're OUT of a jam, they're all "Get the hell outta our country, you loud obnoxious pushy fat bastards..."

Fine. Let 'em fight the next few wars alone. :P
