Of course, our nation’s Conservative leaders are NOT going to take this attack on American Exceptionalism lying down. What’s their plan? To increase spending on neonatal health care? To provide better prenatal care for expecting mothers? To improve American health care facilities and access to insurance?
Nope. They have a BETTER way.
They’re gonna question the methodology the WHO used to come UP with these figures.

After months of frustrating negotiations, I finally came to a deal with my dogs last week that allows them to crap on the living room rug as much as they like.
It was a bipartisan deal. At first, the dogs demanded the right to crap not only in the living room, but in the hallway, in the office, in our bedrooms and on our beds if they felt like it.
Originally, I asked the dogs to start earning their keep by at least auditioning for a few “dog food” or “pet store” commercials. This way, they could bring in some added revenue to our accounts, and we would be able to afford the constant rug shampooing their crapping would make necessary.
They refused this outright and said that if we didn’t let them poop wherever and whenever they pleased, they would maim my wife and stepson.
Well, this was unacceptable. So our talks dragged on through the weeks and months until we approached the August 2nd deadline for our home to be inspected and appraised by the people who own the property.

I was a Combat Engineer in the U.S. Army during the Korean War and we had to deal with land mines and various kinds of explosives and I have to agree with the bomb squad veterans in this story about the Oscar nominated movie "The Hurt Locker."
