TEACHER ARRESTED

A public school teacher was arrested today at John F. Kennedy International
Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a
protractor, a set square, a slide rule, and a calculator.

At a morning press conference, the Attorney General said he believes the man is
a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement. He did not identify the man, who
has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction.

'Al-Gebra is a problem for us,' the Attorney General said. 'They desire
solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in a search of
absolute value. They use secret code names like 'x' and 'y' and refer to
themselves as 'unknowns,' but we have determined they belong to a common
denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country.

As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, 'There are 3 sides to every
triangle.''

When asked to comment on the arrest, President George Bush said, 'If God had
wanted us to have better Weapons of Math Instruction, He would have given us
more fingers............and toes.'

White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or
profound statement by the President.

Wow! I actually enjoyed a Cliffie post. First in a long, long time.

Can you tell us the Buffalo Theory of brain cell natural selection
again?

Whatever your politics, however you lean and however you feel about
the current administration, this report is interesting.

As tragic as the loss of any member of the US Armed Forces is,
consider the below statistics:
The annual fatalities, by any cause, of military members while
actively serving in the armed forces from 1980 through 2006:
1980 2,392 (Carter)
1981 2,380 (Reagan)
1984 1,999 (Reagan)
1988 1,819 (Reagan)
1989 1,636 (George H W)
1990 1,508 (George H W)
1991 1,787 (George H W)
1992 1,293 (George H W)
1993 1,213 (Clinton)
1994 1, 075 (Clinton)
1995 2,465 (Clinton)
1996 2,318 (Clinton)
1997 817 (Clinton)
1998 2,252 (Clinton)
1999 1,984 (Clinton)
2000 1,983 (Clinton)
2001 890 (George W)
2002 1,007 (George W)
2003 1,410 (George W)
2004 1,887 (George W)
2005 919 (George W)
2006 920 (George W)
2007 899 (George W)

Clinton years (1993-2000): 14,107 deaths
George W years (2001-2007): 7,932 deaths

Are you surprised when you look at these figures? They indicate the
loss from the two latest Middle East conflicts are less than the loss
of military personnel during Clinton 's presidency when America wasn't
even involved in a war--unless you include Bosnia and Mogadishu,
Somalia. (Remember “Blackhawk Down“?) Even more surprising is that in
1980,20during Carter presidency, there were 2,392 US military
fatalities!

These figures appear to indicate many members of our media and
politicians pick and choose the information on which they report--that
they present only those “facts” that support their agenda.
Consid er the latest census of Americans. It shows the following
distribution of American citizens by race:

European descent 69.12 percent
Hispanic 12.50 percent
Black 12.30 percent
Asian 3.70 percent
Native American 1.00 percent
Other 2.60 percent

Many members of the media lead us to believe the military death ratio
is off balanced compared to the distribution by race in America. Here
are the fatalities by race over the past three yea rs in Iraqi
Freedom.
European descent 74.31 percent
Hispanic 10.74 percent
Black & nbsp; &n bsp; 9.67 percent
Asian 1.81 percent
Native American 1.09 percent
Other 0.33 percent

Surprised again?
Hopefully, during the time between now and November, intelligent
Americans can decipher--

the facts from the spin.
the spinners from the leaders.
those who seek even more power from those that seek justice.
the dividers from the uniters.

These statistics=2 0are published by the Congressional Research
Service and may be confirmed at:

Hi Gummer. In foresight, I guess Eisenhower (a Miss Cleo moment) had
George W. Bush in mind, and to a greater extent, John McCain.

SNIP table of deaths...


2007 899 (George W)

Clinton years (1993-2000): 14,107 deaths
George W years (2001-2007): 7,932 deaths

Are you surprised when you look at these figures?

Not surprised one little bit, they are innacurate. Look at Table number
5 in the linked document, the Bush numbers have been changed from the
original (cited) Data.

Amusingly, table 5 has a footnote noting that distorted versions of that
table are circulating on the internet.

Yet again, Gummy sending out distortions because there are no 'Facts'
that suit him.

It's your source, but if you go to page 11 of the above link, you will
