TRIFECTA COMPLETE !!!

1. The great VAN JOHNSON
2. The beautiful BETTY PAGE
3. The U.S.CONSTITUTION

YES -- THE U.S. CONSTITUTION folks, I kid you not. It was told to us officially by this man.

Yesterday in an interview by 60 Minutes correspondent Lesley Stahl , Barney Frank whom some have called the "smartest guy in Congress," -which is lucky for us since he works on some of the thorniest issues around- was asked about the Banking Handouts(oops sorry) I meant BAILOUTS!
He worked hand in glove with Treasury Secretary Paulson to write the rescue plan for the banks, then pressed and prodded his colleagues in Congress to get it passed. The relationship between Frank and Paulson has soured lately, since Paulson hasn’t spent any of the rescue money to help struggling homeowners. "Secretary Paulson is refusing to use that money that Congress voted to reduce foreclosures. The bill says he’s supposed to. He won’t do that," Frank says. "You wrote the bill," Stahl points out. "You’re, quote, 'the smartest man in Congress.' How did it happen that you wrote a bill that the secretary of treasury has the power not to fulfill in the way you wanted it fulfilled?" "Because there’s a metaphor that works here: you cannot push on a string." ( NOW HERE IS THE MURDER WEAPON) -- "There’s no Constitutional way to force them to do things," Frank says.
"But didn’t you write the bill in a way that allows him to do this? And you could have written it differently," Stahl remarks.
"No. There’s no way you can force people to do things," Frank says.
IF YOU DID NOT SEE THE MAGIC BULLET -- I WILL SLOW IT DOWN FOR YOU.
The duty of the U.S CONGRESS is to write LAWS !!!
OR AM I JUST BEING SILLY?
