Acronyms in the news
Editorial by the Providence Journal-Bulletin
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.
