Heck of a job, Mr. Chertoff.

By now you know that George W. Bush's Homeland Security Office reduced New York's anti-terrorism allotment by 40 percent -$83 million from last year's $207 million- while boosting funding for smaller cities and rural areas.

The reason? Too many damn democrats live in NY Officially, the HS people say that an innocent and non-biased worksheet that was used to set the funding levels determined that New York has no national monuments or icons to protect. That's right. Not one. Not even the Empire State Building, the United Nations, the Statue of Liberty the New York Public Library, Times Square, the Brooklyn Bridge, or any of the great museums.

Next, the incompetant boobs running this country will tell us there are no governmental offices in Washington, DC, no lakes in Minnesota, no mountains in Colorado, and no girls in Stern.

NY should succed from the Union - but not before putting up a 10 foot razer-wire fence to keep out all the red-state hicks and morons who actually voted for these idiots.
