I thought it was 1.3 billion dollars spent and 56 jobs created. My bad.

Shouldn't it be "created or saved", and "57 states"?

IF the obama administration wants to promote job growth, wouldn't it make sense to increase SNAP food credit? The food industry would benefit + more job hours.
Ike 15 years ago

This is WRONG, and Payne owes the POTUS an apology!

Obama NEVER said there were 56 states.

(he said 57.)

  But that was back when he was counting Washington, D.C. Then the city council/provisional state government cut off their nose to save their gun control law, so now it's only 56.

Kinda dumb, but it got a good laugh from me, so it's much better than most Friday Funnies.

Could have been funnier without the thought bubble from the guy. If I drew it I'd have the guy staring at the poster with a puzzled expression on his face.

Kinda like those Garfield comics that get way funnier when you remove all of Garfield's dialog.

uuhhh. that's stupid, because last i checked there are only 50 states in the US... so.. joke's on you.

NO. HE SAID 57 STATES AND ONE LEFT TO GO. SO 58 STATES. IF YOU WANT TO DO THIS JOKE, YOU HAVE TO GET THE NUMBERS RIGHT. NOW FIX IT.

My only point is that if you take the Bible straight, as I'm sure many of Reasons readers do, you will see a lot of the Old Testament stuff as absolutely insane. Even some cursory knowledge of Hebrew and doing some mathematics and logic will tell you that you really won't get the full deal by just doing regular skill english reading for those books. In other words, there's more to the books of the Bible than most will ever grasp. I'm not concerned that Mr. Crumb will go to hell or anything crazy like that! It's just that he, like many types of religionists, seems to take it literally, take it straight...the Bible's books were not written by straight laced divinity students in 3 piece suits who white wash religious beliefs as if God made them with clothes on...the Bible's books were written by people with very different mindsets.
