I thought you might enjoy this
                   please read the following passage written by State Representative
                                   Mitchell Kaye from Georgia:
                            ***********************************

                                    NEW BILL OF RIGHTS
                                          ***********
                   "We, the sensible people of the United States, in an attempt to help
                 everyone get along, restore some semblance of justice, avoid any more
                 riots, keep our nation safe, promote positive behavior, and secure the
                           blessings of debt free liberty to ourselves and our
                great-great-great-grandchildren, hereby try one more time to ordain and
                establish some common sense guidelines for the terminally whiny, guilt
                 ridden, deluded, and other liberal bed-wetters. We hold these truths to
                 be  self-evident: that a whole lot of people are confused by the Bill of
                      Rights and are so dim that they require a Bill of No Rights."

               ARTICLE I: You do not have the right to a new car, big screen TV or any
                other form of wealth. More power to you if you can legally acquire them,
                                but no one is guaranteeing anything.

                  ARTICLE II: You do not have the right to never be offended. This
                country is based on freedom, and that means freedom for everyone   not
                    just you!  You may leave the room, turn the channel, express a
                                            different
                 opinion, etc., but the world is full of idiots, and probably  always will
                                               be.

                 ARTICLE III: You do not have the right to be free from harm. If you
                    stick a screwdriver in your eye, learn to be more careful, do not
                    expect  the tool manufacturer to make you and all your relatives
                                      independently   wealthy.

                  ARTICLE IV: You do not have the right to free food and housing.
                    Americans are the most charitable people to be found, and will
                   gladly help anyone in need, but we are quickly growing weary of
                subsidizing  generation after generation of professional couch potatoes
                 who achieve  nothing more than the creation of another generation of
                                   professional  couch potatoes.

                ARTICLE V: You do not have the right to free health care. That would
                 be nice, but from the looks of public housing, we're just not interested
                                       in public health care.

                ARTICLE VI: You do not have the right to physically harm other people.
                   If you kidnap, rape, intentionally maim, or kill someone, don't be
                   surprised if the rest of us want to see you fry in the electric chair.

                 ARTICLE VII: You do not have the right to the possessions of others.
                    If you rob, cheat or coerce away the goods or services of other
                    citizens, don't be surprised if the rest of us get together and lock
                    you away in a place where you still won't have the right to a big
                                 screen  color TV or a life of leisure.

                 ARTICLE VIII: You don't have the right to demand that our children
                  risk their lives in foreign wars to soothe your aching conscience. We
                  hate oppressive governments and won't lift a finger to stop you from
                  going to fight if you'd like. However, we do not enjoy parenting the
                  entire world and do not want to spend so much of our time battling
                  each  and  every little tyrant with a military uniform and a funny hat.

                 ARTICLE IX: You don't have the right to a job. All of us sure want all
                of you to have one, and will gladly help you along in hard times, but we
                   expect you to take advantage of the opportunities of education and
                      vocational training laid before you to make yourself useful.

                ARTICLE X: You do not have the right to happiness. Being an American
                 means that you have the right to pursue happiness-which, by the way,
                 is a lot easier if you are unencumbered by an overabundance of idiotic
                 laws created by those of you who were confused by the Bill of Rights.

                  If you agree, we strongly urge you to forward this to as many people
                  as you can. No, you don't have to, and nothing tragic will befall you
                 should you not forward it. We just think it is about time common sense
                        is allowed to flourish-call it the age of reason revisited.
