Hypocrates Just the Norm

What with global warming, Gays trying to destroy the family unit, republicans buying designer clothing only to be auctioned off (so why couldn't they go to ROSS), and now elegant and elaborate meals for the policy makers discussing economic crisis.

It just tells me that there is no crisis and that everything should be alright or that everything is wrong and we have to worry, so hurry up and get the best wines, sauces and meats before the end. Keep the belly happy.
