Sue
There once was a girl named Sue,
She visited the city zoo
She smelled funky,
And looked like a monkey
So now she lives there too!!
Hat Trick
I once took a trip to Sedona--
that's a town in northwest Arizona.
I purchased a hat
from a blind acrobat,
but the hat had a savage persona.
I decided to make it my friend;
we enjoy playing games of pretend.
If you ever are blue
and have nothing to do;
buy a hat, is what I recommend.

Cracked Up
A woman whose name was McMackey,
Had a build that was notably stackey,
'Til two boards in her mattress,
Gave way to her buttress,
And she's now a hunchbackey, by crackey.
The Dancing Writer
There was a young author from Main
Whose prose was exceedingly plain.
So he learned how to dance
But tripped on his pants,
And now he must walk with a cane.
Spring Break
Emma can't wait for her vacation,
so she can travel the nation.
She'll go to the parks,
and stay out 'till dark.
And ride coasters for the sensation.
Wife
Yes, Carol's my sweetheart and lover,
Who's sweetness I crave to uncover.
I made this sweet girl my wife,
With her to be partners for life.
Together each other discover!
Washington D.C.
We vote in smart people, you see.
Then we send them by planes to DC.
Where They're met by big money,
Handshakes and smiles sunny.
No more will there voting be free.
Student Loan Woes
For college Bob sure was saving.
At a burger joint he was slaving
but then he was fired
and for a loan inquired
and now high interest he is braving. Close All

Americans With No Abilities Act – AWNAA

Washington, DC " Nov. 14, 2008

President-elect Barack Obama and the Democrat controlled Congress is considering sweeping legislation that will provide new benefits for many Americans. The Americans With No Abilities Act (AWNAA) is being hailed as a major legislative goal by advocates for the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or ambition.
Roughly 50% of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society, said California Senator Barbara Boxer. We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability to be ridiculed and passed over. With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because they have some idea of what they are doing.
In a Capitol Hill press conference, House Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid pointed to the success of the U.S. Postal Service, which has a long-standing policy of providing opportunity without regard to performance. Approximately 74% of postal employees lack any job skills, making this agency the single largest U.S employer of Persons of Inability.
Private-sector industries with good records of non-discrimination against the inept include retail sales (72%), the airline industry (68%), and home improvement 'warehouse' stores (65%). At the state government level, the Department of Motor Vehicles also has an excellent record of hiring Persons of Inability (63%).
Under The Americans With No Abilities Act (AWNAA), more than 25 million 'middle man' positions will be created, with important-sounding titles but little real responsibility, thus providing an illusory sense of purpose and performance.
Mandatory non-performance-based raises and promotions will be given so as to guarantee upward mobility for even the most unremarkable employees. The legislation provides substantial tax breaks to corporations that promote a significant number of Persons of Inability into middle-management positions, and gives a tax credit to small and medium-sized businesses that agree to hire one clueless worker for every two talented hires.
Finally, the AWNAA contains tough new measures to make it more difficult to discriminate against the non-abled, banning, for example, discriminatory interview questions such as, 'Do you have any work skills or experience that relate to this job?'
As a Non-Abled Person, I can't be expected to keep up with people who have something going for them, said Mary Lou Gertz, who lost her $70,000 per year position as a lug-nut twister at the GM plant in Flint, Michigan, due to her inability to remember 'rightey tightey, lefty loosey.'
This new law should be real good for people like me, Gertz added. With the passage of this bill, Gertz and millions of other untalented citizens will finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.
Said Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL): As a Senator with No Abilities, I believe the same privileges that elected officials enjoy ought to be extended to every American with no abilities. It is our duty as lawmakers to provide each and every American citizen, regardless of his or her inadequacy, with some sort of space to take up in this great nation and a good salary for doing so.
