The following has apparently been attributed to State Representative
Mitchell Kaye from GA. This guy could run for President -- he just
might win:

"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, delusional, and other liberals.

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.
