Apparently Californians cannot count to “three” with their finger. Do they count illegal aliens as citizens, or not?

First there was the “Right Stuff Era”, in which the test pilots had the proper protocol. The Apollo era spending spike proved the Era was not less filling, yet tasted great politically.

Beginning STS-5 there is the current “Right Stuff Irrational Exuberance era”, a mixer era of the right stuff and wanting to do lots of stuff. An era where the test pilots are still adventurous jocks, yet sitting next to them may be a school teacher, lawmaker, or dedicated scientist. (the lawmaker of course wants to be “popular” with everyone on-board). An era in which failure is still thought to not be a plausible outcome, as MOD prints on their shirts.

The third era yet to come is Ken Calvert’s Second “Era” (not to be confused with ERA, or earned run average). Before Ken Calvert’s Corked-Bat “Apollo on Steroids” Enhanced Baseball era can begin (Congress likes to talk about baseball while the deficit soars beyond the stadium)- before it begins the Right Stuff Irrational Exuberance era must come to an end.

The Honorable Congressman cannot count to three upon his fingers. Little wonder the deficit is so enormous. Maybe he is missing a finger, or maybe someone stole a base. For a big guy he has certainly come up one short in this case.
