Which of the following was recently uttered by a Member of Congress?

“Cutting-edge research by top scientists from the United States and Israel could…”

a) discover a cure for cancer.
b) locate Noah’s Ark.
c) reduce our reliance on foreign oil.
d) prove the existence of an Intelligent Designer.
e) find a way to end world hunger.

Oh, and if you need a reason to care, is $20 million of taxpayer money annually reason enough?
