REPUBLICANS TAKE SENATE

WASHINGTON, DC (ADMS) - In the American midterm elections, the Republicans
have taken control of the United States Senate. Could this mean even more
attacks on freedom by the Religious Right, who practically controls the party.
The result of the elections is that the Republicans now have complete
control of the United States Government. By our projections, here at The
Demonizer, the Republicans will take the senate by 2 seats. Republican
victories in Georgia, Minnesota, and Missourie (spelling?), will give them
a net gain of 2 seats. It would have been three seats, but one Republican seat
in Arkansas went to the democrats.
The new makeup of the Senate, by our calculations, will be 51 Republican,
48 Democrats, and one Independent. This will make Trenton Lott (R-Alabama)
the house speaker, once again.
The Religious Right does pretty much control the party. Despite the fact
that two ultra-draconian internet censorship measures were thrown out by the
U.S. supreme court, they will probably try again. They also have the ability
to change the courts now. In March, the Hyde-Blyley Act was thrown out on a
6-3 vote. Had the law been upheld by the court, one person on here who uses
profanity on alt.skate.figure would have been subject to prosecution in the
United States, as the law would have allowed prosecution of any material
banned under the law, regadless of what country it originated from.

RYDER FOUND INNOCENT ON MOST SERIOUS FELONY CHARGE

HOLLYWOOD, California (ADMS) - The American actress Wynona Ryder has been
found innocent on the most serious felony charge of commercial burglary.
Ryder was found guilty on the other two charges of grand theft and vandalism.
The fact the Ryder was found innocent on the most serious felony charge
shows how the American justice system is for the rich. Ever since the 17 year
economic boom from 1984 to 2001, the rich have virtually gotten off for their
crimes. It would not be surprising to see Ryder get probation.
The list of famous rich people that have practically gotten off with nothing
for their crimes is quite long. Some of other well-known rich and/or famous
people who have gotten the proverbial slap-on-the-wrist include:

Orenthal "OJ" Simpson DOB: 26 October 1946 San Francisco, California

a surprise.
