Subject: Planetary System Arbitrarily and Needlessly Changed By Bush Administration: Pluto Demoted


Pluto has been a planet for thousands of years....it was a perfectly
good and usable determination for everyone.

It took the Bush administration to suddenly change that. Why? For some
godforsaken political strategy masterminded Karl Rove, no doubt.

Bush's reach into scientific affairs is his latest blundering effort to
remake the world in his image.

We really do need to impeach him as quickly as possible.

Before he takes us back to an earth-centric cosmology...

Those 'scientists' are witches. As witches, they must be burned at the
stake immediately. They could prove her innocence only through trial by
water. They will be bound and then thrown into the nearest river. If
they float, they will immediately be burned.
Otherwise, if they sink to the bottom, they'll be deemed innocent.

TRUE science is a wonderful thing.

There's probably one doing nasty experiments with coconuts and
swallows as we speak!

The GOOD popes from the old days used to do just that.
Giordano Bruno made a fine bonfire - all his heresy
about extra planets and spacemen went up in a pillar
of purifying holy flame. The modern popes are obviously
WIMPS - lured by the devil into wasting time with altar
boys when they SHOULD be out burning heretics the way
Jesus wants them to !!!

Well, wood floats, as do ducks ... so if we just put
the witch and a duck on a scale ... big time-saver !

Nope. It is undoubtebly the result of pressures from Al-Qaeda, which
couldn't tolerate an american discovered planet...

Well, all planets that can't be seen with the
unaided eye are obviously DECEPTIONS created
by SATAN to undermine faith. Those demon-infested
'scientists' just made 'em up - and we all know
that telescopes are unnatural devices that produce
devil-spawned illusions of objects orbiting things
other than the earth, as gawd intended.

My concern is that Disney named that stupid dog after the planet. If
Pluto is no longer a planet, what will happen to the dog? Fire him?
Rename him? Or did he just simply disappear in a cloud of cosmic dust
at the precise moment the pinheads voting on Pluto's reclassification
voted "yea".

Personally I hope Disney just renamed him "stupid dumbass dog".

It becomes a dwarf Pluto.
Or a miniPluto.
Or a Plutmin.
Or a MicroPluto.
Or a pupPluto(Plutopup).

Feel free to add some.
