uhuh

How far out of it do you have to be to try to pass a law over some guy telling a "fib" about a fish he caught? We should force Iowa to secede.

Since when do laws apply to politicians?

Like they said GoodyearPimp, they were just a bit bored!

``We wanted to slow down on this lying,'' Hamlet said this week. ``Plus, I'm bored. ... It's been a long winter.''
At least he's not lying!

I wont be able to even try to pull women in Iowa, I can't say that i have an enormous penis, or that i'm a nice guy, or that i'm not just after sex. Dagnamit, i'm not going to iowa.

can't have a bored hunter now can we.

The old home state, making me proud. One step closer to an "Iowa" tag.

I suppose I'll have to cancel my vacation there this summer..I was going there with my wife...uh...Morgan Fairchild... Yeah, that's the ticket!

``We're going to beat it around,'' he said.

HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA

Acting Mayor Jo Hamlet...

Jo's the dark sheep of the family.

/hangs head in shame

The "town" only has 40 residents? I'll wager they are all part of the City Council.

"Does this make me look fat?"

I predict an increase in the divorce rate.

Ah, democracy.

I propose an amendment moving congress, senate and the white house to this town. Would probably make politics a little more interesting...

All residents and visitors should also be fed Sodium Pentathnol, it's the only way to be sure.

Very progressive out there, in Mount Sterling Iowa. Outlawing fibbin' and leg pullin'.

I've never lied.

/Gets on lying train to hell.

Hahahahahahahahahaha! It's hilarious when people come up with asinine laws because they are bored. Maybe that's why we're eating "freedom fries", Congress was merely bored, I mean you can see how this whole war thing would get a bit boring. Hahahahahahahahaha.

So, which is more asinine? Iowa trying to outlaw lying or Georgia trying to outlaw unsweet tea? We report, you decide!

Oh yeah, the Supreme Court will have no problem with this law whatsoever (NOT!)

Now if we could only get a federal law against liars, we might be able to clean out Washington D.C.

Deceivers and facists beware!

All Iowa politicians in jail? Sounds like a heck of a good start. Just 49 more states and one district to go. (I couldn't care less what Guam has to say.)

"Plus, I'm bored". Well, there ya go!

Lyar's I can life with.

I gest wish thay wood pass a law gainst stoopid peeple

If new law passes, every politician in Iowa will go to jail

Excuse me, Mr. or Miss Headline Writer Person, but how will this effect every politician in Iowa?

MOUNT STERLING, Iowa -- Lying could be perceived as more than just a character flaw in this southeast Iowa town. It could become a crime.

Four City Council members have proposed an ordinance against fibbing.

Did they say something bad about Bush?

Iowa-Gateway to Nebraska!

If you're looking for precise headlines, what are you doing reading FARK?

Bukharin: I used Guam by way of metonymy for all our island territories - So I am equally unconcerned about the views of Guamese, Puerto Ricans, Samoans, Virgin Islanders, and, frankly, Hawaiians, at least as it relates to this. They're surrounded by oceans, and they can only get themselves into so much trouble. With all mainland politicians in jail, there wouldn't be enough islanders to make a quorum.

"no new taxes"

Everyone lies.

Guam is cool because they have a ton of strip bars and they will do a lot for a 1 dollar! Can you believe that?!!? And they are Air force and Navy chicks...they are sluts....MMmm...sluts...Oh yea...they also have gun clubs almost at every damn block.

Good point. I should have given up worrying about accurate headlines long ago!

This won't be fedral anytime soon will it?

"`We wanted to slow down on this lying,' Hamlet said this week."

To lie
or not to lie:
That is the question.
Whether 'tis nobler
in the state of Iowa
to dissemble or bullshiat;
or whether to lay down arms
and admit that you're an idiot

Lets see...Iowa has produced John Aschroft and now they're infringing on freedom of speech.
We need to build a wall around it and quarantine it for the next thousand years. What the f*ck is is with the water down there?

Xomber, the water down here has the clean taste of pesticide.

Ugh, why did I waste my time reading this article.

Also, to those of you are actually debating the merits of the article: I smell sarcasm from the article. Imagine that, a newspaper writing a sarcasm article. Oh, the insanity.

Xbomber, pull your head out of your ass and learn some geography/history....Missouri gave us John Ashcroft or is that too much to ask from someone coming from the geopolitical nexis of the free world....Minnesota?

True, Ashcroft is from Missouri...my bad. I dunno why I associated him with Iowa....must be because it's a stonghold for Republicans....

Anyway, the we should quarantine both Missouri and Iowa for the next 1000 years.

As for MN, Eponymous, at least we tend to be centrist enough to have had elected an Independent....
Let's see...Bush or Ventura....mmmm

I think I'd rather have Ventura than Bush in office.

The only reason we didn't reelect him is because he did not want to be reelected.
And Pawlenty...well, I still have to wait another year to be able to say anything about his performance.
