The Federal Gubmint (thanks to our own Senator Grassley) has appropriated
$5
million (it may be more) to build a RAIN FOREST here in Iowa City.

You heard me right -- a goddam RAIN FOREST. Most people around here are
dumbfounded, since the developer was unable to drum up any local support
for
the cockamamie idea.

Still think we can't afford to cut the budget enough to pay for a real
space
program?


Sure, there is plenty of unconstitutional spending that could be cut to pay
for other unconstitutional activities.
