We may be seeing a situation arise in which the EU finds it proper and fitting to send armed troops into a member nation like Greece to quell uprisings and violent protests.

In the same week, Iran has sent up a research satellite with Turtles, Froggies, and worms, which according to triumphant reports from the Iranian Space Agency, have all been recovered in good health.

Careful scientific studies have established that the aggregate I.Q. of the crew of the Iranian spacecraft surpasses that of the incumbent U.S. executive branch by a large factor.
