Those of you who watch M.T.V. have no doubt heard about the death of rapper Charles Biggie, a k a, The Notorious B.I.G. Most people would figure since he was D.O.A. at the E.R., we should just let him R.I.P., but the F.B.I. is investigating. Shouldn't they be more worried about the D.N.C.? Questionable contributions from a P.A.C. would have me P.O.'d, and Clinton's denials are nothing but, well, ...

True, it's not as if the G.O.P. hasn't solicited funds from the N.R.A. and G.O.P.A.C., but this doesn't make it O.K. It theoretically helps the G.D.P., but contributions are difficult for the I.R.S. to tax. Furthermore, it doesn't take a Ph.D. to see that something is wrong. Usually, Clinton's S.S. has the White House locked up like N.O.R.A.D., but suddenly anyone from O.P.E.C. to the P.L.O. to the former U.S.S.R. can stay at the finest house in the U.S.A. for a couple of G.'s. If I were the F.B.I. and the C.I.A., I would be worried about all these F.O.B.s running around.

The solution? Easy as A.B.C.; just lose the T.L.C. and terminate those contributions A.S.A.P. No more $10,000 a plate B.B.Q.s for President B.C.; let him invest in a C.D. like the rest of us in the U.S.A. Once we give foreign lobbyists the K.O., the money will no longer be flowing like H2O. Q.E.D.

P.S.: You can bet that Clinton will be munching on a B.L.T. again P.D.Q.
