Bulletin! $900 Million to Palestine!

This just in from BreakingNewsOn: The US will pledge $900 million of aid to the Palestinian Authority, with a third of the money earmarked for Gaza - US State Department.

Um, just a second there. Last I understood it, the United States's bank account was overdrawn. I'm not sure about you, but when my account approaches zero balance, I stop writing checks!

A quick summary of where the US stands financially: the word "deficit" appears in Obama's address to Congress, delivered last week, a total of nine times. This does not include the hundreds of words that add up to the same meaning as "deficit".

Here's my final word to our leaders: WE'RE IN A HOLE, QUIT DIGGING!
