How to Remove Political Mud

Big News

Well, the election's over. Now everybody needs a few days to catch their breath and forget their campaign promises.

Actually, there weren't that many campaign promises in this campaign -- just a never ending string of muddy TV commercials.
- If cleanliness is next go Godliness, that could explain why God didn't vote in this one.

Shouldn't there be some kind of warranty on congressmen, so if you don't like them, after the first 90 days, you can exchange them?
- Or if they don't keep their campaign promises, you get your taxes back?
- How about a constitutional amendment that declares anything said in a campaign commercial to be under oath?

It makes no difference who won or who lost. The bad news is we still have Rush Limbaugh.

Honest, my school was so tough, I was once suspended for cleanliness.
