Polly looked up from the Deland x-43 rangefinder. Finding no new information, she re-booted the Jeffers MkII Target Indicator. Again, nothing new. Being overwhelmed by boredom, she took her Glock 9mm "Peacemaker" and blew her brains out.

Other terms that Luntzed in the Patriot Bowl (didn't focus test well):

It's not a Shutdown, it's __________

1. <i>Amputaterrific!</i> [Catchy Theme Song TBD] 2. <i>Surprise Surgery</i> 3. <i>Non-elective Knifing</i> 4. <i>Freedom Furloughs</i> 5. <i>Partial Temporarily Lessened Full Employment</i>

I guess when Rick Perry couldn't remember that third department he was going to <i>shut down,</i> it was just a "memory slimdown."

Fuck these craven shits, they've been ranting FOREVER about shutting down government. You did it, and now you want to rename it something less toxic? I'd be pissed at your utterly shameless transparently idiotic attempt at damage control, but my schaden is having a freuddown.

Maybe we could just call the entire government a World War II Memorial. Then the Republicans would keep it open.

Did someone already make that joke today/yesterday? Well, too bad, cuz it's fucking true.
