Official Announcement

Official Announcement:
The government today announced that it is changing its emblem from an Eagle
to a CONDOM because it more accurately reflects the government's political
stance.

A condom allows for inflation, halts production, destroys the next
generation, protects a bunch of pricks, and gives you a sense of security while you're
actually being screwed.

Damn, it just doesn't get more accurate than that."
