The logger cleared trees from land belonging to the Federal Government ... Bush and his buddies just gave him the trees.
Dick Cheney's buddies at Haliburton asked the logger if, since he was going out in the forest anyway, could he please carry along this 100,000 gallons of cyanide and just dump it somewhere out there.
The logger then exploited 4 illegal immigrants to saw the trees into lumber. At lunch time, they barbequed the Spotted Owls that were still in the tress. They sawed 400 trees ... it took 4 days ... he gave them $3 each. They were happy.
The logger sold the lumber to a contractor who was putting up an office complex in Santa Monica for $100. The contractor used this substandard lumber to fulfill a part of his Conditional User Permit issued by the liberals in Santa Monica (to build one office tower, he had to build 30 low income apartments on Ocean Ave).
The Low Income units cost $150,000 each to build. Bush and his buddies at HUD ponied up $147,000 each, so the new owners got beachfront apartments for $3,000.
The first apartment was destroyed by fire. The insurance company paid the owner $175,000 in damages.
The second apartment was destroyed by a flood. Bush and his buddies at FEMA paid $300,000 in damages.
The owener of apartment one asked the owner of apartment two "Tell me, how do you start a flood?"
The other 28 apartments were occupied by low income liberals who rallied in support of increasing taxes on raw lumber.
So how much did the logger make?
Well, he made $88 on the wood, paid $35 for gas for the truck ($11 of that in taxes), his Workman's Comp Insurance payment was $6,000 so he was in the hole $5,947 and to add insult to injury, because he was a business owner, he didn't even qualify for unemployment.
It's a good thing that Haliburton paid him $500,000 to dump that Cyanide!
LMAO!!! it also amazes me that the girls who failed mathematics and economics courses can very quickly and accurately count the $$ amount in the donation envelope.
in all seriousness, it is a damn shame that our children do not receive the same quality education we did, largely due to political motivations and rhetoric. I won't even go into my opinion of standardized tests to evaluate a students performance. (mr.man steps down off soapbox and exits stageleft)
