    (AP )
    Washington DC: Key provisions of the U.S. Declaration of Independence
    are currently under review by the Bush administration, according to
    Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.

    "We
    are studying the document with an open mind and absolute respect for
    the authors’ intent." he announced today in a morning press conference.
    "Let me assure you that this President considers the Declaration of Independence to be the very bedrock of American democracy. However,
    given the seriousness of the threats facing our nation today, it would
    be a forfeiture of our duty not to reconsider some of its more outmoded
    provisions."

    Is God Bless America still working for them? I understand Bush wants the Gettysburg Address rewritten as well, so the kids can get hip to the dang thang stead of ’spending time freeloadin’ on the internets.
