The U.S. Department of Energy. HAHA The Joke's on us!!

This was sent to me from a friend. It really makes you wonder WHY IN THE HELL ANYONE WOULD PUT A DEMOCRAT IN OFFICE!!!

Absolutely the funniest joke ever......ON US !!!

Let it sink in....

Quietly we go like sheep to slaughter.

Does anybody out there have any memory of the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY ..... during the Carter Administration?

Anybody?
Anything?
No?
Didn't think so!

Bottom line ... we've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency ...the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember.

Ready???????

It was very simple ..
and at the time everybody thought it very appropriate...

The 'Department of Energy' was instituted on
8-04-1977 TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE
ON FOREIGN OIL.

Hey, pretty efficient, huh?????

AND NOW IT'S 2009, 32 YEARS LATER ... AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS
NECESSARY DEPARTMENT
IS AT
$24.2 BILLION A YEAR
IT HAS
16,000
FEDERAL EMPLOYEES
AND APPROXIMATELY
100,000
CONTRACT EMPLOYEES
AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE!

THIS IS WHERE YOU
SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY
'WHAT WAS I THINKING?'

Ah, yes, good old bureaucracy...
And NOW _ we are going to turn the Banking System, Health Care & the
Auto Industry over to government?

May God Help Us !!!

keep this one going....
