A new-look USA?

The federal government today announced that it is changing its emblem from an Eagle to a CONDOM because it more accurately reflects the government’s political stance. A condom allows for inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of pricks, and gives you a sense of security while you’re actually being screwed.

No chicken dinners on offer for voters here. No envelopes. No cheesy T-shirts. But motivation enough, surely. If you don’t want the eagle on your passport replaced by a condom, get out and vote.

    Speaking of pricks- with the results of the election we have great news on the future of HIV prevention worldwide. On his website, Obama has in print that he plans to remove the ban on using US funds for needle exchange. Imagine the newfound utility of all that PEPFAR money!
