State Lawmakers Demand Milk And Graham Crackers

In an apparent attempt to prove Gov. Schwarzenegger right for once, this week state lawmakers demanded milk and graham crackers. They also said they had to have a nap in the middle of the afternoon legislative session. Gov. Schwarzenegger had commented on how it was like a kindergarten in the legislature trying to get a budget passed, alluding to his vast experience of having been in a movie. It’s good he didn’t refer to another of his movies because he probably would have taken the entire legislature out with a high powered firearm. The Democrats issued a counter statement stating that everyone has heard it wrong and that the old adage says that “you can squeeze blood out of a turnip.” At any rate they didn’t think there were that many turnips grown in California and they would have much better luck with avocados, strawberries and tomatoes. In another development, the Republicans in the state legislature demanded that the Democrats be taught to count to 2/3.
