Voting
A great number of legal Latino residents are trying to become American citizens to be able to vote in the midterm elections. Once again, Latinos are doing the jobs Americans don’t want to do: Vote.

New Orleans
After a violent weekend, the National Guard was sent to New Orleans to patrol the city for the first time since Hurricane Katrina. Apparently they are heavily armed with large quantities of beads.

War in Iraq
Last week congress had a long debate on the war in Iraq and everybody lamented the 2500 soldiers that died in combat. Everybody but Ann Coulter, who is thinking of all the widows she can now trash to sell more books.

Consumer-health groups continue their attack on companies that contribute with the obesity of America. First they complained about KFC, then Starbucks, and now the latest target is the war in Iraq because it’s making Halliburton’s stock holders fat rich.

Cheney
During a press conference, Vice president Cheney said that after 9/11, the United States has been safe and secure , unless of course you go hunting with him.

FEMA
With the arrival of Alberto, Hurricane season has just began or as FEMA calls it "Vacation."

Whale Hunting
The International Whaling Commission voted in favor of a resolution that branded the ban on whale hunting no longer necessary. After the resolution was passed, Oprah Winfrey and Rossie O’Donnel increased their number of bodyguards.

Jolie
Angelina Jolie said that she is thinking of adopting again, and that she and Brad are scouting several different countries to decide where the child will come from. I am dead sure that the lucky country will truly greet them as liberators.
