The Bush Adminisitration...
Not content with merely lying, defrauding and cheating; the admininistration has finally cut ties to the Evangelical / Christian community. What better way to show the dark side in which King George serves than do so than on the newest dollar coin?
Treasury Department has released (accidently?) a new one dollar coin. A large batch of these beauties have a unique birthmark. "In God We Trust" isn't there.

Funny, but the Treasury is making no effort to recover the "at least 50,000 error coins were put in circulation" and some of which are selling openly on eBay. Funny how demand in dollar coins suddenly skyrocketed?.. I wonder, if they'd shown Sacagawea in a loin-cloth*, or Susan B in her younger, wilder, mini-dress years*, whether their coins might have been a bit more popular. It's a shame the Eisenhower "thumbs-up" (Steve Colbert style) coin was rejected in the stodgely 1970's.
* This is humor, refer to wikipedia under the subject of wild, silly sarcasm before commenting that JJ is being insensitive

Date: 2007-03-07 09:16 pm (UTC)btw-the wikipedia article specifically excludes statements by you. "Statements claimed to be humorous made by a certain person in Palmdale with the initials JBS or possibly JJ are not humor. They are in fact the diseased ramblings of a sick and twisted mind and said with malice aforethought."
I've been framed
Date: 2007-03-07 09:36 pm (UTC)Oh no, that statement was discredited as having come from the "PhD" working for Wikipedia and using the "JJ for Dummies" publication to justify his extremist views of me, sloths and tapioca pudding. I'm merely a bearer of world(ly) news and (un)biased information. :D
