- The next time you hear a politician use the words "billion"
casually, think about whether you want that politician spending your tax
money.
-
- A billion is a difficult number to comprehend, but one
advertising agency did a good job of putting that figure into perspective
in one of its releases:
-
- A billion seconds ago, it was 1972.
-
- A billion minutes ago, year AD 103 -- The reign of Trajan
in Rome but seven decades after the crucifixion of Jesus.
-
- A billion hours ago, our ancestors were living in the
Stone Age.
-
- A billion dollars ago was only 4 hours, at the rate Washington
spends it.
-
- The Morons in Washington are complaining on how long
the war is taking but consider this:
-
- It took less time to take Iraq than it took Janet Reno
to take the Branch Davidian compound. That was a 51-day operation.
-
- It took less time to find Saddam's sons in Iraq than
it took Hillary Clinton to find the Rose Law Firm billing records.
-
- It took less time for the 3rd Infantry Division and the
Marines to destroy the Medina Republican Guard than it took Teddy Kennedy
to call the police after his Oldsmobile sunk at Chappaquiddick.
-
- It took less time to take Iraq than it took to count
the votes in Florida!!!!
